Öğrencilerin Mantıksal Düşünme Yeteneğinin Genetik Kavramlarını Anlama Düzeyine Etkisi

Year 2015, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 127 - 137, 30.12.2015

Abstract

Öğrencilerin soyut ve varsayıma dayanan kavramları anlayabilmeleri yüksekdüzeyde mantıksal düşünme yeteneğine sahip olmaları ile mümkündür. Genetikkavramlar varsayıma dayanan imgesel kavramlar olduğundan, genetik problemlerinçözümü de yüksek düzeyde mantıksal düşünme yeteneği gerektirmektedir. Mantıksaldüşünme yeteneği ile genetik kavramları anlama arasındaki ilişkinin konu edildiği buçalışmada, öğrencilerin mantıksal düşünme yeteneğindeki farklılıkların, genetikkavramları anlama düzeylerine etkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Tarama modelininizlendiği çalışmada, 586 öğrenciye Mantıksal Düşünme Yeteneği Testi ve İki AşamalıGenetik Kavram Testi uygulanmıştır. Araştırma problemlerine ilişkin çıkarımsalistatistikler için korelasyon analizi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Eldeedilen bulgular, mantıksal düşünme yeteneği düzeylerine göre öğrencilerin genetikkavramları anlamaları arasında anlamlı farklılıklar olduğunu göstermiştir. Bununlaberaber mantıksal düşünme yeteneği ile genetik kavramları anlama düzeyi arasındaanlamlı ve pozitif yönlü bir ilişki r=0,479, p
