In this study, it is aimed to investigate the effect of the online science course, which is carried out by using the virtual museums created with the web 2.0 tool, on the academic achievement and science attitudes of the fifth-grade students. In addition, student opinions about the virtual museum were also taken within the scope of the study. The research was conducted based on mixed method research in which qualitative and quantitative research models were combined. Quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups was used in the quantitative dimension. The study group consisted of a total of 100 fifth grade students studying at a public school in the academic year of 2020-2021. In the determination of the study group, the easily accessible case sampling method, which is one of the purposeful sampling methods, was used. The study group was divided into two, and science teaching was carried out in the experimental group with a virtual museum created with web 2.0 tools; in the control group, traditional science teaching was carried out by adhering to the activities in the textbook. In the qualitative aspect of the study, opinions about the virtual museum were taken from the students. In the study, the science lesson attitude scale and the academic achievement test prepared for the subject of human and environment were used as data collection tools. While the data obtained from the science lesson attitude scale and achievement test were analysed with the SPSS program; the interview data were analysed using descriptive analysis. As a result of the research, it was revealed that virtual museums, which are web 2.0 tools, have a positive effect on students' science lesson attitudes and academic achievement.

Web 2.0 Aracı ile Desteklenen Çevrim İçi Fen Bilimleri Öğretimi: Sanal Müze Etkinliği

Öz

Bu çalışmada, web 2.0 aracıyla oluşturulan sanal müzelerden yararlanılarak gerçekleştirilen çevrim içi fen bilimleri dersinin, beşinci sınıf öğrencilerinin akademik başarılarına ve fen tutumlarına olan etkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca sanal müze hakkında öğrenci görüşleri de çalışma kapsamında alınmıştır. Araştırma, nitel ve nicel araştırma modellerinin bir arada olduğu karma yöntem araştırmasına dayalı olarak yürütülmüştür. Nicel boyutunda ön test ve son test kontrol gruplu yarı deneysel desen kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın nitel boyutunda ise öğrencilerden sanal müzeye yönelik görüşler alınmıştır. Çalışma grubunu ise 2020-2021 yılı eğitim-öğretim yılında bir devlet okulunda öğrenim görmekte olan toplam 100 kişilik, beşinci sınıf öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Çalışma grubunun belirlenmesinde amaçlı örnekleme yöntemlerinden kolay ulaşılabilir durum örnekleme türüne başvurulmuştur. Çalışma grubu ikiye bölünmüş, deney grubunda web 2.0 araçlarıyla oluşturulan sanal müze ile fen öğretimi gerçekleştirilmiş; kontrol grubunda ise ders kitabındaki etkinliklere bağlı kalınarak geleneksel fen öğretimi yapılmıştır. Çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak, fen dersi tutum ölçeği ve insan ve çevre konusunda yönelik hazırlanmış olan akademik başarı testi kullanılmıştır. Fen dersi tutum ölçeği ve başarı testinden elde edilen veriler SPSS programı ile analiz edilirken; görüşme verileri, betimsel analizden yararlanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, web 2.0 araçlarından olan sanal müzelerin, öğrencilerin fen dersi tutumlarına ve akademik başarılarına olumlu etkisinin olduğu ortaya konulmuştur.
