Abstract

The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of active learning practices on the development of self-management skills, which is among the students’ life skills. The research has been designed using mixed model where embedded semi-experimental pattern was used. Within the research, Life Science course has been conducted according to active learning method and techniques, which were based on self-management skills. The study has been conducted during the spring semester of 2014-2015 academic years, in a 3rd grade classroom of a primary school located at Eskişehir. 36 students participated in the experimental group in the research. Also 36 students participated in the research in the control group. Data of the research were collected through self-management skills scale, semistructured interview. Self-management skills scale was developed by the researchers. Students in experimental group are interviewed. While analyzing the data, t-test was used for quantitative data and descriptive analysis was used for qualitative data. A significant difference has been observed between pre and post-test scores that test and control group students achieved from self-management skills scale; therefore it has been concluded that active learning approach of Life Science course enhances students’ self-management skills. During the interviews conducted to reveal the opinions of the students about the development of their self-management skills, students stated that they were running self-management skills both in school and in their daily life outside school
