Abstract

This study, it was aimed to reveal middle school students' views on basic-level robotic coding education and how they establish a relationship between robotic coding and science education. The study group of the research, in which qualitative research methodology was employed, consisted of 28 middle school students. The 28 students in the study group responded to a questionnaire consisting of eight open-ended items to determine their opinions after receiving basic robotic coding training. The data obtained were analyzed by descriptive analysis method. According to the results of the research, the students stated that they learned especially electronic concepts and electronic circuit elements, they had difficulties in creating electronic circuits and then writing code during the training, they had fun during the training, and it could be useful to use it in science courses. Based on the results of the study, it can be said that students will be satisfied with the integration of robotic coding into science courses, but their experience in circuit building and coding should be increased beforehand.

Özet

Bu araştırmada, ortaokul öğrencilerinin temel düzey robotik kodlama eğitimi hakkındaki görüşlerini ve öğrencilerin robotik kodlama ile fen eğitimi arasında nasıl bir ilişki kurduklarını açığa çıkarmak amaçlanmıştır. Nitel araştırma metodolojisinin işe koşulduğu araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 28 ortaokul öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Çalışma grubundaki 28 öğrenci temel robotik kodlama eğitimi aldıktan sonra görüşlerini belirlemek için sekiz açık uçlu maddeden oluşan bir ankete cevap vermişlerdir. Elde edilen veriler betimsel analiz yöntemi ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre öğrenciler; özellikle elektronik kavramları ve elektronik devre elemanlarını öğrendiklerini, eğitim sürecinde elektronik devreyi oluşturmada ve akabinde kod yazımında zorluklar yaşadığını, eğitim süreci boyunca eğlendiklerini, fen bilimleri derslerinde kullanılmasının faydalı olabileceğini ifade etmişlerdir. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına dayanarak robotik kodlamanın fen bilimleri derslerine entegre edilmesinden öğrencilerin memnuniyet duyacağı ancak öncesinde devre kurma ve kodlama ile ilgili tecrübelerinin artırılması gerektiği söylenebilir.
