Özet:

Active learning, which is interesting due to the impact it creates in the learning and teaching perspective, is a approach that is based on social interaction, focused on the needs of learning and aimed at responding to these needs, enabling students to take responsibility for learning processes. In order to develop the levels of social capacity that are decisive for children’s future lives, it is of great importance to establish and ensure preventive programs in early childhood. The aim of the study is to identify the impact of the educational program prepared by an active learning approach on the levels of social capacity of children between 5-6 years of age. The research has used a semi-experimental pattern of control and experiment group with pre-test and final-test. The 15 session training program, which includes active learning techniques, was implemented to the experimental group of 16 students, and the necessary data was collected with the "social competence and behavior assessment scale" and interview forms. The data obtained has been studied and in recent tests significant differences have been observed in favour of the experimental group.
