Abstract

 The aim of this study was to investigate pre‐service science teachers’ attitudes toward Project Based Learning (PBL) approach after they participated in a Science, Technology and Society (STS) course, which were carried out based on PBL. STS course was 3 hours per week, during 14 weeks term. The sample of the study consisted of 36 senior pre‐service  science  teachers.  At  the  end  of  the  term  to  determine  the  attitudes  of  pre‐service  teachers  toward  PBL,  the  attitude  test  for  PBL  have  been  adapted  to  Turkish language  and  applied  to  the  sample.  As  the  result,  it  was  found  that  pre‐service teachers have a positive attitude about the PBL approach. It has also been determined that  pre‐service  teachers  complained  about  groups  of  their  peers,  who  did  not contribute  enough  to  the  project  work,  and  time  pressure  and  they  need  more guidance  in  the  process.  Given  the  policy  "Teachers  tend  to  teach  as  they  were taught”,  courses  for  pre‐service  teacher  education  should  be  carried  out  with  active and  student‐centered  approaches  such  as  PBL.  Teaching  courses  with  a  similar approach will be more effective than only teaching the theoretical foundations of this approach.  More  information  on  how  the  application  was  implemented  and  detailed results will also be presented.

Fen Bilgisi Öğretmen Adaylarının Projeye Dayalı Öğrenme Yaklaşımı İle İlgili Tutumları

Year 2014, Issue: 27, 7 - 24, 26.05.2014

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Projeye Dayalı Öğrenme (PDÖ) yaklaşımına dayalı olarak
yürütülen Fen, Teknoloji ve Toplum (FTT) dersini alan fen bilgisi öğretmen adaylarının
PDÖ yaklaşımı hakkındaki tutumlarını tespit etmektir. FTT dersi haftada 3 saat olmak
üzere 14 hafta sürmüştür. Çalışmaya, 36 son sınıf fen bilgisi öğretmen adayı katılmıştır.
Dönem sonunda öğretmen adaylarının PDÖ tutumlarını belirlemek için PDÖ tutum testi
Türkçe ‘ye uyarlanarak uygulanmıştır. Sonuç olarak, öğretmen adaylarının PDÖ
yaklaşımı hakkında olumlu tutumlara sahip oldukları belirlenmiştir. Öğretmen
adaylarının, gruplarında çalışmalarına yeterince katkıda bulunmayan öğretmen
adaylarından ve zaman baskısından şikâyetçi oldukları ve süreçte daha çok rehberliğe
ihtiyaç duydukları belirlenmiştir. “Öğretmenler kendilerine öğretildiği gibi öğretme
eğilimindedirler” ilkesi göz önüne alındığında, eğitim fakültelerinde dersler PDÖ gibi
aktif ve öğrenci merkezli yaklaşımlarla yürütülmeye çalışılmalıdır. Derslerin buna
benzer yaklaşımlarla yürütülmesi, sadece bu yaklaşımların dayandığı teorik temellerin
öğretiminden daha etkili olacaktır. Uygulamanın nasıl yürütüldüğü ile ilgili ayrıntılı
bilgiler ve ayrıntılı sonuçlar ayrıca sunulacaktır.
