Bu araştırmanın amacı ortaokul öğrencilerinin “Güneş sistemi” ile ilgili zihinsel modellerinin belirlenmesidir. Araştırma, 2017-2018 eğitim-öğretim yılı bahar döneminde Türkiye’nin batı bölgesinde yer alan iki devlet okulunun tüm ortaokul öğrencileri ile gerçekleştirilmiş olup, araştırmaya toplam 340 öğrenci katılmıştır. Araştırmada kullanılan veri toplama aracı, iki açık uçlu sorudan oluşmaktadır. Veri toplama aracında yer alan sorular, öğrencilerin Güneş sistemini betimleme ve görselleme durumlarını ortaya çıkaracak şekilde hazırlanmıştır. Veri analizinde, öncelikle öğrencilerin Güneş sistemini betimleme ve görselleme durumları ayrı ayrı analiz edilmiş, sonra betimleme ve görselleme sorularına verilen cevaplar birlikte değerlendirilerek öğrencilerin zihinsel modelleri belirlenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda ortaokul öğrencilerinin “Güneş sistemi” ile ilgili bilimsel zihinsel modele sahip olmadığı, öğrencilerin daha çok sentez ve ilkel model düzeyinde zihinsel modele sahip olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
The purpose of this research is to identify the mental models of high school students related to the "Solar System". The research was conducted with all high school students of two state schools located in the western region of Turkey during the spring period of the 2017-2018 educational year, with a total of 340 students participating in the research. The data collection tool used in the research consists of two open end questions. The questions included in the data collection tool are prepared in such a way as to reveal the students' situations of imaging and visualizing the Solar System. In data analysis, first students' image and visualization situations were analyzed separately, then the students' mental models were determined by joint assessment of the answers to the image and visualization questions. The study found that high school students did not have a scientific mental model related to the "Solar System" and that students had more mental models at the level of synthesis and primary model.
The purpose of this study is to determine secondary school students’ mental models about the “Solar System”. The study was conducted on all the students attending two state middle schools located in the western part of Turkey in the spring term of 2017-2018 school year and a total of 340 students participated in the study. The data collection tool used in the study consists of two open-ended questions. The questions in the data collection tool were developed to elicit the students’ states of describing and visualizing the solar system. In the analysis of the collected data, first the students’ states of describing and visualizing the solar system were separately analyzed and then the students’ responses given to the description and visualization questions were evaluated together and thus their mental models were determined. As a result of the study, it was concluded that secondary school students did not have scientific mental models about the “Solar System” and they mostly had mental models at the initial and synthesis models.
