A Computer-Supported Instructional Material Design Based on 5E Learning Model: A Case of “Work, Power and Energy” Unit

Abstract

Teaching and learning of the concept of energy and related concepts through traditional teaching methods are difficult since these concepts are abstract and their scientific meanings are different from their daily-life meanings. Moreover, another source of this difficulty is due to deficiency of appropriate teaching materials for such abstract concepts. Constructivist approach derives from students' real-world experiences and suggests the use of computer technology for solving these problems. Due to these reasons, there is a need to develop teaching materials in order to make science concepts concrete that are too theoretical to grab, too small to see, and too big to bring to class. The aim of this study is to introduce a computer-supported instructional material based upon 5E learning model regarding the “work, power and energy” unit for 10th grade level. Finally, e-contents of the FATIH Project might be designed according to the 5E learning model as done in this study
