Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there is a predictive effect of learning styles on critical thinking dispositions of high school students. Thus, it aims to determine how much of learning styles used by high school students depending on the nature of learning settings explain the variance in critical thinking dispositions. The sample of the study is composed of 271 high school students chosen randomly from three high schools. The data was collected using Critical Thinking Dispositions Scale developed by reseachers and Learning Styles Scale developed by Reichmann-Grasha and adapted into Turkish language by Koçak (2007). The findings indicated that while high school students learning styles (systematically study, dependence on teachers and cooperation in classroom) predict significantly causal thinking, courisity and openmindedness dispositions, competitive learning style does not predict significantly the critical thinking dispositions.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı, lise öğrencilerinin öğrenme stillerinin eleştirel düşünme eğilimlerini yordayıcı etkisinin olup olmadığını incelemektir. Bu amaçla lise öğrencilerinin öğrenme stillerinin eleştirel düşünme eğilimlerini ne oranda açıkladığının belirlenmesi hedeflenmektedir. Araştırmanın örneklemini, Uşak ilinde orta öğretim kurumlarından tesadüfi örnekleme yöntemi ile üç liseden seçilen 271 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri, araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen Eleştirel Düşünme Eğilimleri Ölçeği ve Grasha-Reichmann tarafından geliştirilen ve Koçak (2007) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan Öğrenme Stilleri Ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, lise öğrencilerinin öğrenme stillerinden sistemli çalışma eğilimi, öğretmene bağımlılık ve sınıf içi işbirliği stillerinin nedensellik, meraklılık ve açık fikirlilik eğilimlerini anlamlı bir şekilde yordadığı, rekabetçi öğrenme stilinin eleştirel düşünme eğilimlerinin hiç birisini yordamadığı tespit edilmiştir.
