Bu çalışmada, sınıf öğretmenlerinin bilimsel araştırmanın doğası hakkındaki anlayışlarının belirlenmesi ve bu anlayışlara astronomi ile ilgili bir yaz bilim kampının etkisinin ortaya çıkarılması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın amacına ve kullanılan ölçme aracının doğasına uygun olarak, nitel araştırma yaklaşımı benimsenmiştir. Astronomi yaz bilim kampına katılan sınıf öğretmenlerinin bilimsel araştırmanın doğası konusundaki anlayışlarını belirlemek için orijinali Schwartz, Lederman ve Lederman(2008) tarafından geliştirilen “Bilimsel Araştırmanın Doğası Hakkındaki Görüşler (Views of Nature of Scientific Inquiry)” isimli bir ölçme aracı kullanılmıştır. İçerik analizi yoluyla yapılan veri analizinin sonucunda, katılımcı öğretmenlerin çoğunluğunun, bilimsel araştırmanın doğasıyla ilgili anlayışlarının, kamp programına katılmadan önce yetersiz bir seviyede olduğu görülmüştür. Kampın sonunda “bilgili” bir anlayış seviyesine ulaşan öğretmenlerin sayısı oldukça sınırlı olmakla birlikte, kampa “yetersiz” anlayışla başlayan birçok öğretmen kampı daha “kabul edilebilir” bir seviyeye ulaşarak bitirmiştir. Burada tanıtılan yaz bilim kampı gibi kısa süreli ve yoğun programa sahip projelerin, öğretmenlerin gelecekteki mesleki gelişimlerinin temellerini atması ve yeni farkındalıklar oluşturması önemsenmesi gereken kazanımlardır.

This study was conducted for the purpose of examining the nature of scientific inquiry understandings of elementary teachers and investigating the effect of an astronomy science summer camp on their understandings. The data was collected using “Views of Nature of Scientific Inquiry” instrument developed by Schwartz, Lederman and Lederman (2006). The results obtained through the content analysis of the available data indicated that the majority of the participant teachers held a “inadequate” understanding about the nature of scientific inquiry at the beginning of the science summer camp. At the end of the camp program in contrast to the limited number of teachers who developed a “informed” understanding of the nature of scientific inquiry, the number of the teachers whose understandings transitioned from “inadequate” to “acceptable” was noticeably higher. Science summer camps similar to the aforementioned one in this study with a short and intense program have the potential value for assisting teachers in their future professional development and creating higher awareness in certain topics.
