equivalence of the groups; 16 9th class students were included under the names
of control group (n=8) and experimental group (n=8). The application process
consists of fourteen weeks. The data were gathered from documents,
observations, and interviews. The data were analyzed by descriptive analysis.
At the process of ensuring the reliability and validity of the data, five
experts were consulted. Research results showed that the students of
experimental group are more successful in terms of expressing their cognitive
knowledge, integrating their cognitive knowledge with practice ability, and it
