Abstract

The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics recommends using effective teaching methods to develop geometric thinking. Among the constructivist approach models, the 5E model has come to the fore in the active participation of the learner and the creation of their own knowledge. In constructivist models, it is recommended to use information and communication technologies together. The number of studies using the technology-supported 5E model in mathematics teaching is limited. In this article, the effect of activities suitable for the 5E model supported by Cabri 3D geometry software on geometry success has been examined. Student views on Cabri 3D activities were presented. The study was built on the quasi-experimental method. Activities suitable for the Cabri 3D and 5E model were applied to the experimental group students. The control group students conducted their lessons with textbook activities. Academic Achievement Test was applied to the study group students. After the application, the experimental group was interviewed. SPSS and descriptive statistics were used in the analysis of the data. As a result of this study, it can be said that teaching with the Cabri 3D supported 5E model increases the geometry success of the students and most of the students have positive opinions about Cabri 3D.

5E Modeline Harmanlanmış Cabri 3D Etkinliklerinin Geometri Başarısına Etkileri

Abstract

Ulusal Matematik Öğretmenleri Birliği geometrik düşünmenin geliştirilmesi için etkili öğretim yöntemleri kullanımını önermektedir. Öğrenenin aktif katılımı ve kendi öğrenmelerini oluşturması bakımından yapılandırmacı yaklaşım modelleri ve bu modeller arasında 5E modeli ön plana çıkmıştır. 5E yapılandırmacı yaklaşım modeli, öğrencilerin aktif katılımını sağlamaktadır. Yapılandırmacı modellerde, bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerinin birlikte kullanılması önerilmektedir. Matematik öğretiminde 5E modelini kullanan çalışmalar olmakla birlikte teknoloji ve 5E modelini kullanan araştırma sayısı sınırlıdır. Bu makalede, bir geometri yazılım olan Cabri 3D destekli 5E modeline göre hazırlanan etkinliklerin geometri başarısına etkisi incelenmiştir. Ayrıca Cabri 3D kullanımı ile ilgili öğrenci görüşleri sunulmuştur. Sonuçlarını sunduğumuz çalışma, yarı deneysel bir yöntem üzerine inşa edilmiştir. Cabri 3D ve 5E modeli göz önünde bulundurularak hazırlanan çalışma etkinlikleri daha sonra deney grubu öğrencilerine uygulanmıştır. Kontrol grubu öğrencilerinin dersleri, ders kitabındaki etkinliklere göre yürütülmüştür. Çalışma gruplarındaki öğrencilere ön-test son-test olarak Geometri Başarı Testi uygulanmıştır. Ayrıca deney grubunun Cabri 3D hakkındaki görüşlerini öğrenmek için uygulama sonunda bir görüşme yapılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde SPSS ve tanımlayıcı istatistiklerden yararlanılmıştır. Bu çalışmanın sonucunda Cabri 3D destekli 5E modeli ile öğretimin öğrencilerin geometri başarılarını artırdığı söylenebilir. Ayrıca çoğu öğrencinin Cabri 3D hakkında olumlu görüşü belirttiği gözlenmiştir
