Abstract

Bu çalışmada öğrencilerin bilimin doğası hakkındaki öğrenmelerini destekleyen bir entegre fen ve matematik etkinliği tanıtılmaktadır. Etkinlik, fen ve matematik konu içeriklerinin yanı sıra bilimin doğasının; bilimsel bilginin çıkarımsal olma, değişime açık olma ve kanıtlanabilirlik özelliklerini belirten yönleri üzerine odaklanmaktadır. Etkinlikte yapılandırmacı bir yöntem olan 5E öğretim modeli esas alınmıştır. Bilimin doğası kavramları öğretiminde ise en etkili yol olarak bilinen doğrudan-yansıtıcı yaklaşım kullanılmıştır. Öğrenciler bu etkinlik ile verilen bir bileşik üzerinden Proust’un kanunu olarak bilinen belirli oranlar kanununu öğrenirlerken aynı zamanda bilimsel bir araştırmaya da aktif bir şekilde katılmış olacaklardır. Öğrenciler bilimsel bilgiye ulaşırken aynı zamanda grafik çizme, eğim bulma, oran hesaplama ve ölçüm yapma gibi bir takım matematiksel kavram ve modelleri de kullanmış olacaklardır. Bu etkinliğin öğrencilerin, bilimin doğası hakkında yeterli düzeyde anlayışlara sahip olmada önemli yere sahip olan, bilişsel, akıl yürütme, analitik ve problem çözme gibi bir takım becerilere de sahip olacakları düşünülmektedir
