Paper Abstract:
|
Starting university studies, students have great difficulties in mathematics studies, often because when they transition from school studies, students have insufficient self-efficacy skills and insufficient learning initiative. Based on the theoretical research a questionnaire was developed for students of the Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies (LBTU). Evaluating students' self-assessment of learning self-efficacy skills in mathematics studies, it can be concluded that students are relatively little familiar with metacognitive strategies, but use cognitive strategies intuitively. Regarding student learning initiative, there is a relationship between time management and assessment, as well as between mathematics learning goal and assessment. Based on the obtained results, the authors suggest focusing students' attention on identifying and applying mathematical strategies in effective mathematics studies, as well as cultivating positive thinking in learning mathematics, developing good will power, self-control and emotional control. |
