INTEGRATION OF MATHEMATICAL LITERACY WITH SCHOOL MATHEMATICS

Öz

The need to transfer the mathematics learned at school to real-life and use mathematical knowledge in life has brought the expression of mathematical literacy to the fore. Meeting this need is possible by raising mathematically literate students in schools and planning education to achieve this. From this starting point, this study aims to introduce a teaching model called Dual-Focused Teaching, which is designed to develop mathematical literacy during mathematics instruction. Constructed based on data from a design-based research project, this model focuses on reaching, deepening, and reinforcing mathematical concepts and generalizations. The model's content includes learning theories on which it is based, its application in the lesson, and its reflection on the lesson on a sample lesson plan are explained in all aspects of this study. The need for this model, its applicability, and potential are discussed in light of the literature.

MATEMATİK OKURYAZARLIĞININ OKUL MATEMATİĞİ İLE ENTEGRASYONU

Öz

Okulda öğrenilen matematiği gerçek yaşama aktarabilme, matematiksel bilgiyi yaşamda kullanabilme ihtiyacı, matematik okuryazarlığı deyimini ön plana çıkarmıştır. Bu ihtiyacın karşılanması okullarda matematik okuryazarı öğrenciler yetiştirmek ve öğretimi bu şekilde planlamakla mümkündür. Bu doğrultudan hareketle bu çalışmada, matematik öğretiminde matematik okuryazarlığını süreç içinde geliştirme amacıyla tasarlanan ve Çift Odaklı Öğretim adı verilen bir öğretim modelinin tanıtılması amaçlanmaktadır. Tasarım tabanlı bir araştırma projesinden elde edilen verilere dayanarak yapılandırılan bu modelde öğretim, matematiksel kavram ve genellemelere ulaşma ve bunları derinleştirme ve pekiştirme üzerine yoğunlaşmaktadır. Çalışmada, modelin içeriği, dayandığı öğrenme kuramları ve örnek bir ders planı üzerinde derse yansıması tüm yönleriyle açıklanmıştır. Modelin varlığına duyulan ihtiyaç, uygulanabilirliği ve başarı potansiyeli literatür ışığında tartışılmıştır.
