Developing Environmental Citizenship in Social Studies Through Social Media-Supported Out-of-School Learning: An Action Research

Öz

The main purpose of this study is to develop the environmental citizenship competencies of sixth-grade students in social studies courses through the use of out-of-school learning environments and social media tools. The study employed an action research design. The study group consisted of sixthgrade students enrolled in a middle school in Kocaeli, Türkiye. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, focus group interviews, student journals, and researcher journals. The data were analyzed using content analysis. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that the use of social media tools and out-of-school learning environments in social studies courses supported students' active participation in learning processes and provided them with meaningful educational experiences connected to their daily lives. In particular, the integration of the school's social and physical environment into the course contributed to creating sustainable effects on students' environmental awareness. Overall, when the implemented activities are considered as a whole, the findings suggest that they contributed to the development of students' environmental citizenship competencies, particularly by fostering a shift from individual action to collective engagement
