- W1513846766 abstract "AbstractThe purpose of this research is to investigate effect on students' attitudes toward mathematics when cartoons are used in teaching integers. The research was designed in form of pre-test and post-test with quasi experimental control group. The research participant group was composed of sixty-one (61) 7th grade students attending an elementary school in Bolu during 2008-2009 academic year. Integers were taught during six weeks using seventeen cartoons developed for this study. 7 homogenous groups, each consisting of four students sharing same opinions, were utilized in order to facilitate more comprehensive discussion on concepts while at same time encouraging them to question their own thinking patterns by creating social learning environment. Data was collected using Attitude Scale and through written opinions of students concerning implementation process. Whereas quantitative data was analyzed by performing t-test for dependent and independent samples, qualitative data was analyzed descriptively. Furthermore, while method of use of cartoons in teaching math lessons positively affected interest in mathematics course, perceived benefits of mathematics and perceived mathematics achievement levels, which are sub-components of attitude, compared to conventional teaching, conventional teaching method led to decline in students' interest in mathematics course. When students were asked to describe their feelings toward cartoon based teaching, they responded by saying that they enjoyed cartoons and that they increased their interest in math lesson. In light of findings of this study, researchers have developed suggestions for those who are to conduct further research on cartoons.Key WordsAttitude towards Mathematics, Cartoon, Mathematics Teachings, Integers.Studies carried out by Bloom (1998) show that approximately one fourth of differences arising in learning among individuals is fall into category of affective learning, of which attitude is most important of all affective characteristics (Caine & Caine, 1991; Morgon, 1981; Tekin, 1996).While definition of attitude varies depending on field of study and subjects, most general definition as defined Turkish Language Association's dictionary (Turk Dil Kurumu [TDK], 1998) is outlook, behavior. In reviewing studies conducted on general attitude present in current literature, it is observed that Thurstone (1931) defines attitude as the affect for or against psychological while Allport (1935) describes it as a mental and neural state of readiness, organized through experience, exerting directive or dynamic influence upon an individual's response to all objects and situations with which it is related. Katz (1960) defines attitude as preliminary way of thinking, in which an individual perceives symbol, an object, person or world with its good, bad, or harmful aspects depending on system of values possessed by that individual. Smith (1968) defines attitude as the tendency which is attributed to individual and which includes one's thoughts, feelings, and behavior about psychological object (as cited in Kagitcibasi, 1999).It has been stated that attitudes are gained through learning and that those characteristics gained through learning are themselves feelings that guide behaviors of an individual causing biasness in decision making process (Baysal, 1994; Demirel, 1993; Ozguven, 1994; Saka & Kiyici, 2004; Ulgen, 1995). Neale (1969) defines attitude particularly toward mathematics as a total measure of liking or disliking of mathematics, tendency to engage in or avoid mathematical activities, belief that one is good or bad at mathematics and belief that mathematics is useful or useless (Neale, 1969 as cited in Alkan, Guzel, & Elci, 2004). …" @default.
