Abstract
Purpose: This research aims at analyzing graduate theses and articles made on gifted individual in science education in Turkeythrough content analysis.Design/Methodology/Approach: In the research, 16 theses (10 master’s and six PhD theses) and 37 articles made betweenJanuary 2018 and July 2020 were analyzed with content analysis. The studies were accessed from The Council of HigherEducation National Thesis Center and Google Academic database.Findings: In the studies in which content analysis made, current issues were determined as STEM education, curriculum studies,and teaching material development. In most of the studies, qualitative research method was used and “case study” amongqualitative research and “survey” among quantitative research models were frequently used. A limited number of experimentalresearches have shown that learning approaches such as STEM Education, Brain Based Learning, Differentiated Teaching,Argumentation Based Learning, Project Based Learning, Computer Based Learning have positive results on self-regulatedlearning strategies, attitude towards science, scientific process skills, problem solving skills, creativity and critical thinking skills.Highlights: It has been concluded that more experimental studies with different variables are needed on science education ingifted. Making studies on entrepreneurial skills, use of technology and different education levels are recommended.
Özet
Bu araştırma, Türkiye’de özel yeteneklilerde fen eğitimi üzerine yapılan lisansüstü tezlerin ve makalelerin meta-sentez yoluyla analizini amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmada, 2018 yılından 2020 yılı Temmuz ayına kadar yapılmış 16 tez çalışması (10 yüksek lisans ve altı doktora tezi) ve 37 makale analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmalara YÖK Ulusal Tez Merkezi ve Google Akademik veri tabanından ulaşılmıştır. Tematik içerik analizi yapılan çalışmalarda güncel konular; STEM, müfredat çalışmaları ve öğretim materyali geliştirme olarak tespit edilmiştir. Yapılan çalışmaların çoğunda nitel araştırma yöntemi kullanılmış ve nitel araştırma türlerinden “durum çalışması”, nicel araştırma türlerinden “tarama” modeli sık kullanılan modeller olmuştur. Öz düzenleyici öğrenme stratejileri, fene yönelik tutum, bilimsel süreç becerileri, problem çözme becerileri, yaratıcılık ve eleştirel düşünme becerileri ve STEM eğitimi üzerine yapılan deneysel çalışmaların sonuçları olumlu olmuştur. Özel yeteneklilerde fen eğitimi üzerine daha fazla deneysel çalışma yapılmasına ihtiyaç olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
