This study aims to determine to what extent 7th
grade secondary school students have science process skills. The science
process skills of students were evaluated by means of Science Process Skills
Test (SPST) developed by researcher and composed of 31 multiple-choice items.
KR-20 reliability coefficient of the test was found to be 0.88. The population
of the study consisted of 168 students selected by purposive sampling. The data
showed that the students were successful at moderate level in their science
process skills. The course achievements of science and technology
of the students, the educational status of their fathers, and registration of
students to preparatory schools as well as their science process skills were
found to show significant difference. There was no significant difference
between the sex of the students and the educational level of their parents, and
science process skills
Bu çalışmanın
amacı, ortaokul 7. sınıf öğrencilerinin bilimsel süreç becerilerine ne ölçüde
sahip olduğunun belirlenmesidir. Öğrencilerin bilimsel süreç becerileri,
araştırmacı tarafından geliştirilen ve 31 çoktan seçmeli maddeden oluşan
Bilimsel Süreç Becerileri Testi (BSBT) ile ölçülmüştür. Testin güvenirlik KR-20
katsayısı 0.88 olarak bulunmuştur. Çalışma, amaçlı örnekleme göre seçilen 168
öğrenciye uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler öğrencilerin bilimsel süreç
becerilerinde orta seviyede başarılı olduğunu göstermiştir. Öğrencilerin okul
fen ve teknoloji ders başarıları, baba eğitim durumları ve dershaneye kayıtlı
olma durumları ile bilimsel süreç becerilerinin anlamlı farklılık gösterdiği
görülmüştür. Öğrencilerin cinsiyetleri ve anne eğitim durumları ile bilimsel
süreç becerileri arasında her hangi anlamlı bir farka rastlanmamıştır.
