Examination of Problem Posing Abilities Using Computer Animations on Fractions in the 4th Grade Students

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the problem posing abilities of 4th grade students on fractions using computer animations. This work was conducted with twenty seven fourth grade students in a state school in Bingöl. As the data collection method problem posing data scale, semi-structured interview forms and some worksheets have been used. The study shows that computer animations help positively posing problems of students related to rational numbers. The students, who can not pose problems in “Right” category, make use of unit fraction and equal fractions and face the problems in the stage of create a problem. Also, students have diffucilty correlating between inputs and results. Students, who can pose problems in the “Right” category, can pose more complex and original rational problems and better understanding by using in rational operation such as addition, subtraction and modelling. Besides that, students expressed that they are willing to work with computers, especially in abstract subjects and computer animations help to improve the ability of problem solving.
