EĞİTİMDE SOSYAL, ZİHİNSEL VE SÖZLÜ-YAZILI BİR AKTİVİTE: ARGÜMANTASYON

Günümüzdeki eğitim sistemleri geleneksel eğitimin aksine, öğrenme- öğretme sürecinde öğretmenin yerine öğrenciyi merkeze almaktadır. Öğretmenin öğrenciye öğrenmesi için rehberlik ettiği bu süreçte öğrencinin daha aktif olması, bilgiyi sadece öğrenmekten ziyade bilgiye ulaşmasını gerekli hale getirmektedir. Dolayısı ile öğrenci ihtiyaç duyulan bilgiye ulaşma yollarını tanıma, ulaşmış olduğu bilgiyi ön bilgileri ile karşılaştırma ve bir değerlendirme yapma imkanı bulmaktadır. Bu sayede öğrencinin daha aktif olduğu bu sürecin bilginin ötesinde beceriler kazandıracağı söylenebilir. 21. yüzyıl becerilerini edinen öğrencilerin, bilim insanlarının bilgiyi edinmede yaşadığı süreçleri tecrübe etmeleri sağlanır. Öğrenciler öğrenme sürecinde araştırır, sorular sorar, deneyler tasarlar, gözlem yapar, ulaştığı bilgileri karşılaştırır, değerlendirir ve böylece bir sonuca ulaşır. Bu çalışmada, son yıllarda özellikle fen bilimleri eğitiminde dikkat çekmeye başlayan argümantasyona dayalı öğretimin farklı bağlamlarda ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Derleme türündeki bu çalışmada, öncelikle gerek yerli gerekse yabancı alanyazına dayalı olarak argüman ve argümantasyona yönelik açıklamalar sunulmuş ve Toulmin’in argüman modeli tanıtılarak bu modelin sınırlılıkları da ele alınmıştır. Bu çalışma ile ayrıca, bir argümanın kalitesinin bağlı olduğu unsurlara ilişkin bilgi verilmiş ve sonrasında da fen öğretiminde argümantasyonun yeri ve potansiyel katkıları incelenerek, sınıflarda argümantasyon uygulamalarının tercih edilmeme nedenleri sunulmuş, argümantasyon uygulamalarının öğretim ortamlarında uygulanabilmesi için ileri sürülen öneriler değerlendirilmiş ve öğretim süreci içerisinde kullanılabilecek argümantasyon stratejileri açıklanmıştır.

A SOCIAL, MENTAL AND VERBAL-WRITTEN ACTIVITY IN EDUCATION: ARGUMENTATION

Today's education systems, unlike traditional education, take the student to the center in the teaching-learning process instead of the teacher. In this process in which the teacher guides the student to learn, the student is more active and makes it necessary to access information rather than just learn. Therefore, the student has the opportunity to know the ways to reach the information needed, to compare with the preliminary information and to make an evaluation. In this way, it can be said that this process, in which the student is more active, will gain skills beyond knowledge. Students who have acquired 21st century skills will be able to experience the processes experienced by scientists in acquiring knowledge. In the learning process students search, ask questions, design experiments, make observations, compare and evaluate the information they have reached and thus reach a conclusion. In this study, it is aimed to put forward argumentation-based teaching which was started to attract attention especially in science education in different contexts. In this review type, firstly, arguments and argumentation were presented based on both national and international literature and Toulmin's argument model was introduced and the limitations of this model were discussed. In this study, information is given about the elements that the quality of an argument depends on and then the place and potential contributions of argumentation in science teaching are examined, the reasons why argumentation applications are not preferred in class are presented, suggestions for the application of argumentation applications in teaching environments are evaluated and the argumentation strategies that can be used in the teaching process are explained.
