The effect of Singapore mathematics on the mathematical self-efficacy of elementary school pupils
 Šulcová, Pavla ; Jančařík, Antonín (advisor) ; Jirotková, Darina (referee)
This diploma thesis partly follows from the research of Smetáčková and Vozková who developed a Czech mathematical self-efficacy questionnaire. It examines the student's mathematical self-efficacy, i.e. the student's belief about his ability to successfully work on solving mathematical problems, depending on gender, year and the type of word problems used. It is also dedicated to teaching, describing solutions and student strategies for solving word problems in the form of two types of Singaporean problems - What number makes sense and What question can you answer. It describes the mathematics teaching in Singapore, which is repeatedly placed in the top ranks in international testing. 53 pupils in the 4th and 5th year of elementary school participated in the research lasting 5 weeks. The students filled out a mathematical self-efficacy questionnaire at the beginning and end of the research. During the research, the 4th graders were presented with 8 Singapore- type problems What question can you answer, and the 5th graders were presented with 10 traditional-type or Singapore-type problems What number makes sense. Hypotheses were tested with a two-sample F-test. No difference in mathematical self- efficacy was demonstrated for boys and girls. The 4th -grade students rated as more mathematically...
