Farklı disiplinlerin birbirleri ile ilişkilendirilerek öğrenilmesi bireylerin fen-teknolojitoplum bağını kurmalarına olumlu katkılar sağlamaktadır. Bu noktadan hareketle çalışmanın amacı; Doğrusal ve Düzlemde hareket ünitelerinde matematiksel modelleme kullanılan Fizik derslerindeki ilişkilendirme ile öğretmen adaylarının ilgileri arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemektir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda uygulama öncesinde gönüllülük esas alınarak 8 ve uygulama sonrasında amaçlı belirlenen 10 Fen bilgisi öğretmen adayı ile yarı yapılandırılmış mülakatlar, ayrıca matematiksel modelleme uygulamaları süresince 17 ile 23 sayısı arasında değişen öğretmen adayı ile gözlemler yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada mülakatlardan elde edilen verilerin analizinde tümevarımsal tematik analiz, gözlemlerden elde edilen verilerin analizinde ise tümdengelimsel analiz kullanılarak veriler incelenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda; disiplinler arası ilişkilendirme kullanılarak yürütülen derslerde öğretmen adaylarının ilgilerinin artmasına paralel olarak matematik, fizik ve günlük hayatla ilişkilendirme düzeylerinin de geliştiği ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu bağlamda farklı disiplinler arası ilişkilendirme yöntemlerinin kullanılarak öğretmen adaylarının ilgilerinin gelişimlerinin araştırılabileceği önerilmektedir

The Effect of Physics Courses Mathematical Modelling Used on Prospective Teachers’ Interests and How They Associate Physics with Real Life and Other Courses

Öz

Learning through relating different disciplines provide positive contribution to individuals for establishing connection between science- technology- society. From this point, the aim of this study is to determine the association between relating Physics course in which mathematical modeling was used in one and two dimensional motion units and prospective teachers’ interest. By this aim, semi- structured interviews were conducted with 8 volunteer prospective science teachers before the intervention and with 10 prospective science teachers selected through purposive sampling after the intervention, and also observations were carried out during the mathematical modeling intervention with the changing number of prospective teachers, 17 to 23 in different lessons. Data obtained from semi structured interviews were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis and observations were analyzed by employing deductive thematic analysis. Findings revealed that in parallel to increase in the participating prospective teachers’ interest in lessons in which interdisciplinary relating was used, their skills to relate physics, mathematics and real life have been developed. In this context, it is recommended that the development of prospective teachers’ interest could be further investigated through using different interdisciplinary relating methods
