Maddenin Tanecikli Doğası Hakkında İlköğretim 7. Sınıf Öğrencilerinin İmaj Oluşturmalarına Rol Oynama Öğretim Yönteminin Etkisi

Bu çalışmada ilköğretim 7. sınıf öğrencilerinin maddenin tanecikli doğası hakkında imaj oluşturmalarında rol oynama öğretim yönteminin etkisi geleneksel öğretim yöntemi ile karşılaştırılarak araştırılmıştır. 2005-2006 Öğretim Yılında 46 ilköğretim 7. sınıf öğrencisinin katıldığı bu çalışmada yarı deneysel ön test-son test kontrol grup deseni uygulanmıştır. Çalışmada veri toplama, veri analizi ve sonuçların tartışılması süreçlerinde ise nitel araştırma metotlarından biri olan içerik analizinden faydalanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda elde edilen sonuçlardan maddenin tanecikli doğası hakkında imaj oluşturulmasında rol oynama öğretim yönteminin daha etkili olduğu bulunmuştur.

The Effect of Role Play instruction method on 7th Grade Students the Forming Mental Images about the Particle Model of Matter

The aim of this study was to compare the effect of role-play instruction method and traditional instruction methods on 7th grade students\' the forming mental images about the particle model of matter. The participants of the study were 46 7th grade students in the 2005-2006 academic years. The research design employed in this study was the semi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design. The content analysis technique, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the data colleting and evaluating process. The findings of the study indicated that the role-play instruction method is more effective than traditional methods on 7th grade students\' the forming mental images about the particle model of matter.
