Öğrenci merkezli eğitimin en öncelikli amacı öğrencinin, kendi kendine öğrenmeyi keşfetmesine yardımcı olmaktır. Bu modelde öğrenci kendini değerlendirebilmeli, kendini yeterince tanıyabilmeli ve düşüncelerini rahatlıkla ifade edebilmelidir. Bu bağlamda yapılan bu çalışmanın en temel amacı, öğrenci merkezli fen öğretimi konusunda ilköğretim okulu 4. ve 5. sınıf öğrencilerinin görüş ve düşüncelerini değerlendirmektir. Araştırmada anket yoluyla toplanan veriler istatistiksel işlemlerle değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda, öğrencilerin genel olarak öğrenci merkezli fen öğretimini destekledikleri sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
