Purpose: This research aims to address the effects of mathematical games obtained by recycling waste materials on middle school students' environmental awareness and mathematical attitudes. Method: The research using a mixed method was conducted with forty seventh-grade students selected according to criterion sampling in a public school. While the quantitative dimension of the research was formed by a single-group quasi-experimental design, the special case study method was used for the qualitative dimension. Six games created by the researchers from waste materials for teaching mathematical subjects were played with the students (one game each week) in the classroom or the schoolyard. The questionnaires applied to the study group before the games regarding environmental awareness and mathematical attitude were also used after the games. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six students to obtain more in-depth data at the end of the process. Findings: Qualitative and quantitative findings were presented and integrated. According to quantitative data, it was revealed that the games created using waste materials did not cause a change in the seventh-grade students' attitudes towards mathematics or environmental awareness. Qualitative findings revealed that game applications contribute to learning mathematics, environmental awareness and emotional-social dimensions in different aspects. Highlights: Considering the qualitative findings, it is assessed that incorporating games created with waste materials into mathematics lessons will offer significant opportunities for middle school students, particularly in terms of raising environmental awareness regarding the evaluation of waste materials, fostering an appreciation for mathematics, and contributing to mathematical thinking.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada atık materyallerin geri dönüştürülmesi ile elde edilen matematik oyunlarının ortaokul öğrencilerinin çevre bilincine ve matematik tutumlarına olan etkisini ele almak amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Araştırma, bir devlet okulunda kriter örneklemesine göre seçilen 40 yedinci sınıf öğrencisi ile karma yöntem benimsenerek yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın nicel boyutunu tek gruplu yarı-deneysel deneysel desen oluştururken, nitel boyutu için özel durum çalışması yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Atık materyallerden matematik konularının öğretimi için araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilmiş altı oyun her hafta bir oyun olmak üzere öğrencilerle birlikte sınıf içinde veya okul bahçesinde oynanmıştır. Oyun uygulamalarının öncesinde ve sonrasında çevre bilincine ve matematik tutumuna ilişkin ölçekler çalışma grubuna uygulanmıştır. Sürecin sonunda daha derinlemesine veri elde edebilmek adına altı öğrenci ile yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Bulgular: Nitel ve nicel bulgular bütünleştirilerek sunulmuştur. Araştırmanın sonucuna göre nicel veriler dikkate alındığında, atık materyaller kullanılarak oluşturulan oyunların yedinci sınıf öğrencilerinin matematiğe dair tutumunda veya çevre bilincinde bir değişime yol açmadığı ortaya çıkmıştır. Nitel bulgular ise oyun uygulamalarının matematiği öğrenme, çevre bilinci ve duyuşsal-sosyal boyutta farklı açılardan katkılarının olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Önemli Vurgular: Elde edilen nitel bulgular dikkate alındığında matematik derslerinde atık materyallerle oluşturulmuş oyunlara yer verilmesinin, ortaokul öğrencilerinin özellikle atık materyallerin dönüşürülmesi ile ilgili çevre bilinci, matematiği sevdirme ve matematiksel düşünmeye katkı sağlama anlamında önemli fırsatlar sunacağı değerlendirilmektedir.
