Abstract

Araştırma Giresun Üniversitesi, Eğitim Fakültesi, Sınıf Öğretmenliği Programında okuyan öğrencilerin coğrafya dersini sevmelerinde, yaşadıkları mekana göre farklılıklar olup olmadığını belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. 1.2.3. ve 4. sınıfta okuyan toplam 226 öğrenci örneklem olarak seçilmiştir. Örneklemin yarısı kırsal kesim kökenli öğrencilerden, yarısı da kentsel kesim kökenli öğrencilerden oluşmuştur. Seçilen öğrencilerin coğrafya dersi hakkındaki düşüncelerini ölçmek amacıyla 20 maddelik likert tipi bir tutum ölçeği geliştirilmiş ve öğrencilere uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler t-testi ile analiz edilmiş ve yorumlanmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçları kırsal bölge öğrencilerinin coğrafya dersini daha fazla sevdiklerini ortaya çıkarmıştır.
