Abstract

The current study determines the cognitive and metacognitive strategies used by the 9th grade students at Science High Schools, Anatolian High Schools and Vocational High Schools before, while and after solving multiple-choice science questions. Fifteen students, five from each high school type, participated in the study. Qualitative research designs was used in the study. The findings of the study revealed that the students at Science High Schools used cognitive and metacognition strategies in a greater number and variety than those at Anatolian High Schools and Vocational High Schools before and while solving science questions. It was ascertained that the students in all high school types did not use cognitive strategies after answering science questions. The results indicated that Science High School students employed metacognition strategies after solving the questions, Anatolian High School students used very few in number and variety and Vocational High School students used no metacognition strategies.

Özet

Bu araştırmada Fen Lisesi, Anadolu Liseleri ve Meslek Lisesi 9. sınıf öğrencilerinin Fen Bilimleri alanındaki çoktan seçmeli soruların çözümü öncesi, esnası, sonrasındaki süreçlerde kullandıkları bilişsel ve üstbilişsel stratejiler belirlenmiştir. Araştırmaya her bir liseden beş öğrenci olmak üzere on beş öğrenci katılmıştır. Araştırmada nitel araştırma deseni kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda; genel olarak Fen Bilimleri alanındaki çoktan seçmeli soruların çözümü öncesi ve esnasındaki süreçlerde Fen Lisesi öğrencilerinin Anadolu Liseleri ile Meslek Lisesi öğrencilerine göre fazla sayıda, çeşitte bilişsel ve üstbilişsel strateji kullandıkları belirlenmiştir. Soruların çözümü sonrasında öğrencilerin tamamının bilişsel strateji kullanmadıkları belirlenmiştir. Soruların çözümü sonrasında Fen Lisesi öğrencilerinin üstbilişsel strateji kullandıkları, Anadolu Liseleri öğrencilerinin çok az sayıda, çeşitte üstbilişsel strateji kullandıkları, Meslek Lisesi öğrencilerinin ise üstbilişsel strateji kullanmadıkları tespit edilmiştir.
