Özet:

In this research, the affect of 4 MAT teaching model in mathematic course about geometric concepts over sixth grade students academic success and the affect of learning styles on students successes are aimed to search. By this aim the some geometrical concepts has been taught to the students by using 4 MAT teaching model and constructive learning model. The sample of study consist of total 39 sixth year secondary school students who are at the state school which is found in middle Anatolia region. These two classes were randomly separated into experimental and control groups. Nonequivalent control group design, one of the a quasi-experimental model and survey model were used in this study which has been carried out for 5 weeks in the second semester of 2009-2010 academic year. The data of this study was obtained from geometrical success test, structured interview and Kolb Learning Style Inventory. In order to test research quantitative data ANCOVA, T-test, Kruskall Wallis, Mann Whitney U test were used. On the other hand, qualitative data is analyzed by describing. According to analyzing result of qualitative data most of the students expressed positive thoughts on applying 4 MAT teaching technique on learning some geometrical concepts. But in analyzing result of quantitative data it is found out that this technique has no meaningful affect on students’ success .We reached the conclusion of students’ dominant learning styles have affect learning these geometrical concepts.
