Astronomi Konusunda Modelleme Ve Bilgisayar Destekli Öğretimin 7. Sınıf Öğrencilerinin Bazı Öğrenme Ürünlerine Etkisi

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı 7. Sınıf Fen Bilimleri öğretim programında yer alan “Güneş Sistemi ve Ötesi” ünitesinde ki Astronomi kavramların da modelleme tekniği ve bilgisayar destekli rehber materyali kullanılmasının öğrencilerin akademik başarılarına, yaratıcı düşünmelerine ve mantıksal düşünme becerilerine etkisini araştırmaktır. Deneysel araştırma yöntemlerinden yarı yapılandırılmış araştırma deseniyle yürütülen bu çalışma, Ordu ili Altınordu ilçesinde yer alan bir devlet okulun da öğrenim gören biri deney biri kontrol olmak üzere toplam 66 7. Sınıf ortaokul öğrencisi ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. 2018 – 2019 eğitim öğretim yılı güz yarıyılında yürütülen bu çalışmada, deney grubunda mevcut öğretim programına dayalı öğretim ile birlikte araştırmacı tarafından ünite kavramlarına yönelik geliştirilen bilgisayar destekli materyal ve modelleme tekniği ile geliştirilen modeller dersler esnasında kullanılırken, Kontrol grubunda ise sadece mevcut öğretim programına dayalı öğretim kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda, Modelleme ve Bilgisayar Destekli Öğretim uygulanan deney grubu öğrencilerinin, Akademik Başarıları, Bilimsel Yaratıcılıkları ve Mantıksal Düşünme Becerileri, kontrol grubunda yer alan öğrencilere göre anlamlı derecede yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir .

The Effect of Modeling and Computer Aided Teachıng On Astronomy on Some Learning Products of 7th Class Learners *

Abstract

Abstract. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of modeling technique and computer aided guidance material on students' academic achievements, creative thinking and logical thinking skills in Astronomy concepts in the ‘‘Solar System and Beyond’’ unit in the 7th grade Science curriculum. This study, which was carried out with a total of 66 7th grade secondary school students, one of whom was an experimental and one of the control of a public school in Altınordu, Ordu, was carried out with a quasi-structured research design which is one of the experimental research methods. In this study carried out in the fall semester of 2018-2019 academic year, in the experimental group, models based on the computer-aided material and modeling technique developed by the researcher for unit concepts were used during the courses, while in the control group only teaching based on the current curriculum was used. In this studyAs a result of the study, it was determined that the Academic Achievement, Scientific Creativity and Logical Thinking Skills of the experimental group students who applied Modeling and Computer Assisted Instruction were significantly higher than the students in the control group. .
