Abstract

Araştırmanın amacı; matematik öğretmenlerinin öğretim tasarımı sürecinde materyal kullanımlarının incelenmesidir. Eylem araştırmasının nitel paradigmasıyla gerçekleştirilen araştırma, Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı bünyesinde görev yapmakta olan sekiz öğretmenin katıldığı bir eğitim sürecinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Katılımcılar ile birlikte toplam onbir oturum gerçekleştirilmiş olup veriler yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşmeler, yazılı dokümanlar, video kayıtları ve odak grup görüşmeleri ile toplanmıştır. Veriler içerik analizi ve sürekli karşılaştırmalı analiz yoluyla analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda; katılımcıların eğitim öncesi öğretim tasarımlarında yer verdikleri materyallerin öğretmen kullanımına açık, öğrencinin yalnızca izleyebildiği yapıda olduğu görülürken; eğitim sonrasında öğrencinin yaparak-yaşayarak deneyimleyebileceği, öğretmenin sadece rehber olduğu materyallere yer verdikleri görülmektedir.

Abstract

The study aimed to examine mathematics teachers’ materials usage in instructional design and was carried out via qualitative paradigm of action research with eight teachers working at the Ministry of National Education. Eleven sessions were held in total and data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, written documents, video recordings and focus group interviews. The data were analyzed via content analysis and constant comparative analysis. The results revealed while manipulatives in pre-education could be only observed by students; in post-education they were experienced by students, with teacher acting as a guide.
