Abstract

This study examines students’ -attending different high schools- misconceptions about the ozone layer depletion. In order to obtain the data, a closed-form Likert type Questionnaire was adopted from the study of Groves & Pugh 2002 . 213 students from different high school types were asked to answer about the ozone layer; what it is, what will damage it, and what will be the likely result of such damage. The data analysis showed that there are statistically significant differences between the participants of the three different high schools. The results showed that teachers should give much more importance on teaching global environmental issues.

Özet

Bu çalışmada farklı liselerdeki öğrencilerin ozon tabakası ile ilgili düşünceleri ve kavram yanılgıları incelenmektedir. Verilerin toplanmasında kullanılan kapalı uçlu Likert tipi anket, Groves ve Pugh’un 2002 çalışmasından uyarlanmıştır. Bu ankette farklı lise türlerinden toplam 213 öğrenciye ozon tabakasının ne ve nerede olduğu, ne işe yaradığı, ozon tabakasına nelerin zarar verdiği ve ozon tabakasındaki hasarın ilerlemesinin sonuçlarının neler olabileceği sorulmuştur. Yapılan istatistik analizler sonucunda her üç lise öğrencileri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar bulunduğu ortaya konulmuştur. Yarının yetişkin bireyleri, olacak olan lise öğrencilerinin sahip olduğu bu kavram yanılgıları, küresel çevre konularının liselerimizde öğretimine yeterince önem verilmediğine işaret etmektedir.
