7.Sınıf Fen Bilimleri Ders Kitabının Öğrenme ve Yenilik Becerileri Açısından Öğretmen Görüşlerine Göre Değerlendirilmesi

Abstract

Geleceğin tasarımcıları olan öğrencilerin çağımızda meydana gelen değişimlere uyum sağlayabilmeleri ve bir sonraki eğitim kurumuna ya da iş hayatına hazır olabilmeleri için 21. yüzyılın ileriye dönük becerilerine ihtiyaçları vardır. 21. yüzyıl becerilerinin bireylere en etkili şekilde kazandırılabilmesi için eğitim sistemine entegre edilmesi gerekmektedir. Eğitim ve öğretim süreci kapsamında öğretmen ve öğrenciler tarafından sıklıkla kullanılan ders kitapları 21. becerilerinin kazandırılmasında büyük öneme sahiptir. Bu araştırmanın amacı ortaokul 7. sınıf Fen Bilimleri ders kitabının 21. yüzyıl öğrenme ve yenilik becerileri açısından öğretmen görüşleri doğrultusunda değerlendirilmesidir. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 2021-2022 eğitim-öğretim yılında Gaziantep ili merkez ilçelerinde bulunan Milli Eğitim Bakanlığına bağlı ortaokullarda görev yapan 7. sınıf Fen Bilimleri ders kitabını kullanan 30 Fen Bilimleri öğretmeni oluşturmaktadır. Nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden olgubilim deseninin benimsendiği araştırmada veriler, araştırmacı tarafından hazırlanan 10 sorudan oluşan yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu ile toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler içerik analizi ve betimsel analiz yöntemi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmada Fen Bilimleri öğretmenlerinin görüşleri doğrultusunda 7. Sınıf Fen Bilimleri ders kitabının 21. yüzyıl öğrenme ve yenilik becerilerini tam olarak geliştirmediği, öğrenme ve yenilik becerileri açısından yetersiz olduğu ve becerilerin ders kitabında düzensiz bir dağılım gösterdiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
