Atomun Yapısının Kavratılmasında ve Yanlış Kavramaların Giderilmesinde Bütünleştirici ve Geleneksel Öğretim Yöntemlerinin Etkileri

Araştırmanın amacı, “Atomun Yapısı” konusunun kavratılmasında; “Geleneksel Anlatım Yöntemi” ile “Bütünleştirici (constructivist) Yöntem” in başarıya etkilerini karşılaştırmaktır. Çalışma Kırklareli-Babaeski Lisesi I. Sınıf öğrencileri ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Öğrencilere “ön test” uygulayarak ön bilgileri ve yanlış kavramları tespit edilmiştir. Başarı bakımından denk iki grup oluşturularak, biri “kontrol grubu” diğeri “deney grubu“ olarak belirlenmiştir. Kontrol grubuna geleneksel anlatım yöntemi, deney grubuna bütünleştirici yöntemle öğretim yapılmıştır. Öğrencilere öğretimden önce Atomun yapısı Ön Bilgi Testi, Mantıksal Düşünme Yetenek Testi, Bilimsel İşlem Beceri Testi ve Atomun Yapısı Kavram Testi-İlk olarak uygulanmıştır. Uygulamadan sonra başarıyı belirlemek amacıyla AtoThe purpose of this study is to compare the “traditional teaching technique” and “constructivist approach” as regards to the perception of the concepts related to the “structure of atom“. The study was carried out with the 9th year students in Kırklareli Babaeski High school. The students have been given a pre-test in order to determine their primary knowledge and misconceptions. Two groups have been formed with equal success rates. One of them is determined as the “control” and the other as the “experimental” group. Control and the experimental groups were taught with traditional and constructivist approach respectively. All the students were given a Prior Knowledge Test related to Structure of Atom, Logical Thinking Skill Test, Scientific Calculation Skill test and Atomic Structure Concepts test before the teaching process. In order to evaluate their success, after the teaching process, Atomun yapısı, bütünleştirici yöntem, kavram yanılgıları.Structure of atom, Constructivist Method, Misconceptions. Tam Metin
