The Effect of Common Knowledge Construction Model on Science Process Skills and Academic Achievement of Secondary School Students on Solar System and Eclipse

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of Common Knowledge Construction Model (CKCM) on the science process skills and academic achievement of 6th grade students in Solar System and Eclipse (SSE).

The study group consisted of 83 students studying in 6th grade of a secondary school in Yakutiye district of Erzurum in 2018-2019 academic year.

In the study, quasi-experimental method was chosen because of the pre-formed classes, and the Solar System and Eclipse Academic Achievement Test (SSEAAT) and the Science Process Skills Test (SPST) were used as data collection tools. Quantitative data obtained by GSTAB and BSBT were analyzed by independent sample t-test, paired sample t-test, one way ANOVA and Pearson moment product correlation coefficient. As the result of the study, In the courses carried out with the CKCM, a positive increase was observed in the academic achievements of the sixth grade students in the SSE. In addition, students have a positive development in science process skills. It has been determined that students who increase their academic achievements in the SSE unit will also increase their science process skills.
