Abstract

In
this study, it is aimed to contribute to the field by giving the activity
example steps of developed for teaching socioscientific issues (SSIs) that
increasingly important issues in science education in recent years.
Accordingly, an activity that includes dimensions of science-technolgy-society-environment
(STSE) is designed about SSIs. This activity, which is thought to be a guiding
material for teachers, will help their lessons.

SOSYOBİLİMSEL KONULAR TEMELLİ BİR ETKİNLİK ÖRNEĞİ: SBK TOMBALA

Abstract

Bu
çalışmada son yıllarda fen eğitiminde önemi gittikçe artan sosyobilimsel
konuların (SBKlar) öğretimine yönelik geliştirilen bir etkinlik örneğinin basamakları
verilerek, alana katkı sağlamak amaçlanmaktadır. Bu doğrultuda
fen-teknoloji-toplum-çevre (FTTÇ) hareketinin beraberinde getirdiği SBKlarla
ilgili, FTTÇnin boyutlarını içeren bir etkinlik tasarlanmıştır. Öğretmenlere
yol gösterici nitelikte bir materyal olduğu düşünülen bu etkinliğin alana ve
öğretmenlerin derslerine yardımcı olacağı düşünülmektedir.

Keywords
