Fen Bilgisi Eğitiminde Dramanın Kullanımına İlişkin Öğretmen Adaylarının Görüşleri

Bu çalışmada, fen bilgisi öğretmen adaylarının fen ve teknoloji dersinde kimya dersine ait olan konu içeriklerinin öğrencilere öğretiminde bir öğretim stratejisi olarak dramayı nasıl kullanabileceklerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda fen bilgisi öğretmenliği lisans eğitimine devam etmekte olan 13 öğretmen adayı çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Çalışma kapsamında öğretmen adaylarından hem kendileri hem de gelecekteki öğrencilerini düşünerek fen bilgisi dersinde öğrenmekte zorluk çekilen konularda dramayı bir öğretim stratejisi olarak nasıl kullanacaklarını belirlemeleri ve kendi dramalarını sınıflarda gerçekleştirmeleri istenmiştir. Bunun yanında öğretmen adaylarından uygulama sürecinde dramalarının video kaydını almaları istenmiştir. Veri toplama işlemi öğretmen adaylarının video kayıtları ve raporlarından elde edilen veriler ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Raporlar, İçerik Temsilleri aracı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Yapılan analizler sonucunda elde edilen sonuçlara göre, öğretmen adayları daha önceki eğitim hayatlarında dramayı hiç deneyimlememiş olsalar da genel olarak fen bilgisi eğitiminde dramanın bir öğretim stratejisi olarak kullanılmasına ilişkin olumlu görüşlere sahip oldukları tespit edilmiştir. Bunun yanında bazı öğretmen adayları fen bilgisi derslerinde drama kullanımının madde ve doğasına ilişkin süreçleri öğrencilerin anlamalarını kolaylaştırdığını savunmaktadır.
