Sınıf Ve Sosyal Bilgiler Öğretmenlerinin İşbirlikli Öğrenme Modelini Sınıfta Uygulama Düzeyleri

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Sınıf ve Sosyal Bilgiler öğretmenlerinin, aktif öğrenme modellerinden birisi olan işbirlikli öğrenme modeli hakkındaki uygulama düzeylerinin belirlemesidir. Çalışmanın örneklemini, toplam 47 Sınıf ve Sosyal Bilgiler öğretmeni oluşturmaktadır. Ölçme aracı olarak işbirlikli öğrenme modeli bilgi ve uygulama düzey belirleme ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada kullanılan ölçek on dört sorudan oluşmaktadır. Ölçme aracından elde edilen veriler değerlendirildiğinde her iki branş öğretmenlerinin işbirlikli öğrenme modelini uygulamada yeterli bilgiye sahip olmadığı görülmüştür.

Anahtar Kelimeler

• İşbirlikli öğrenme modeli, Sınıf ve sosyal bilgileri öğretmenleri, Aktif öğrenme.
