    (Maltepe Üniversitesi, Lisansüstü Eğitim Enstitüsü, 2022) Benderli, Eren; Seçkin, Gökçe Güvercin
    The education system in Turkey has become more dependent on test preparation and memorization from early ages. For this reason, students are not able to develop some necessary skills that will lead them to achievement in high level learning environments such as universities. Besides insufficient high level thinking abilities and skills they also lack some basic qualities of a student. Academic buoyancy is a concept which was coined in 2000s refers to students’ ability to cope with daily challenges that they face during their academic studies. There are five motivational components of academic buoyancy which are called the 5Cs of academic buoyancy which are confidence, coordination, commitment, composure and control (low uncertain control). This study aims to explore the use of the 5Cs of academic buoyancy by the IB DP students in Turkey through the views and experiences of IB DP students and teachers. To reach this qualitative research method was used for the study and phenomenology pattern was used to design the study. The data were collected from 20 participants 13 of whom are DP students from different high schools in Turkey and 7 of whom are DP teachers from various high schools. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the participants to gather data. The interviews were recorded on Zoom and analysed using thematic analysis. The results indicated that coordination, confidence and commitment were significant factors that played an important role in the studies of DP students. Another significant factor affecting these was to be positive student-teacher interaction. Peer interaction also came out as a factor but not as significant as the previous ones.
