Özet

Bu araştırma öğrencilerin, öğrenme problemleri yaşadıkları “Madde ve Değişim” konusunun öğretiminde uygulanan eğitsel oyun yöntemine yönelik algılarını belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırmada durum çalışması yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Katılımcı grubunu Erzurum ili merkez ve kırsa bölgelerde öğrenim gören altı beşinci sınıf öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Veri toplama aracı olarak yapılandırılmamış gözlem, öğrenci günlükleri ve yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde içerik analizi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda öğrencilerin eğitsel oyun yönteminin öğrenmelerini kolaylaştırdığı, bilgi sağama ve kavram öğretimi açısından yeterli olduğu, anlamlı öğrenmeler sağladığı, ilgi ve isteği artırarak öğrenme motivasyonunu yükselttiği, derse, öğretmene ve okula karşı olumlu tutum geliştirmeyi, korku ve öğrenme kaygısını azalttığı, birlikte çalışma, yardımlaşma, hoşgörü gibi sosyal becerileri geliştirdiği görüşünde oldukları belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak öğrencilerin eğitsel oyun yöntemine yönelik algılarının olumlu olduğu bulunmuştur.
