A Discussion on the Effects of Religious Terminology in Physics Education for High School Students with a Religious Background

Year 2019, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 136 - 160, 30.06.2019

Abstract

In this paper we suggest that transmit of
the knowledge from one person to the other and develop of certain capacities of
the students during the teaching terms can be achieved by employing certain
elements that already exist within the religious background of students as long
as the target student population has that sort of background, and they are
willing to incorporate that into their educational development. In our case,
this is especially valid for certain parts of Turkey, where our studies took
place and where religion plays an important role in daily life. However, the
general universal concepts that we promote here can be applied to other parts
of the globe by adjusting the terminology and concepts based on the student
background.
