Abstract:

The main purpose of the research is to examine fifth grade primary students’ success and attitude toward science and technology course that is taught with interactive whiteboard. The research was designed in quasiexperimental method. The working group of the research was formed of 48 primary fifth grade students in 2011-2012 academic year in İstanbul. The knowledge test for the force and motion subject of science-technology course was prepared by the researchers and the Kuder Richardson-20- reliability coefficient was found out as .776. For the science technology attitude scale, it has been developped by Balım, Sucuoğlu & Aydın (2009) and the cronbach alpha reliability coefficient was found out as .734 in this research. The data were collected by means of science-technology attitude scale and knowledge test for the force and motion subject of science-technology course. In analyzing the data SPSS packet program, Mann Whitney U test and Wilcoxon test were used. The result of the research showed that; the success and attitude points of experimental group are higher than the control group. Reccomendations were made according to the outcomes of the research.
