The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the computer-simulated experiment (CSE) and the problem-solving approach on students' chemistry achievement, science process skills, and attitudes toward chemistry at the high school level. For this purpose, two experimental groups were compared, with the control group using the conventional approach. The sample consisted of 200 ninth-grade students. The treatment for all groups was carried out over 9 weeks. Four instruments were used in the study: Chemistry Achievement Test, Science Process Skill Test, Chemistry Attitude Scale, and Logical Thinking Ability Test. The results indicated that the computer-simulated experiment approach and the problem-solving approach produced significantly greater achievement in chemistry and science process skills than the conventional approach did. The CSE approach produced significantly more positive attitudes toward chemistry than the other two methods, with the conventional approach being the least effective.

Effects of conceptual change oriented instruction on understanding of gases concepts
Çetin, Pınar Seda; Geban, Ömer; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2009)
The main purpose of the study was to compare the effectiveness of conceptual change oriented instruction accompanied with computer animations and traditionally designed chemistry instruction on 10th grade students’ understanding, achievement and retention of gases concepts and attitudes towards chemistry as a school subject. Also students’ views about nature of science were investigated. Quasi experimental design was used in this study. 67 tenth grade students from two intact classes of a chemistry course t...
Effect of conceptual change texts accompanied with analogies on understanding of chemical bonding concepts
Pabuçcu, Aybüke; Geban, Ömer; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2004)
The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of CCTIA over TDCI for 9th grade students̕ understanding of chemical bonding concepts. Also, the effect of instruction on students̕ attitude toward chemistry as a school subject and the effect of gender difference on understanding of chemical bonding concepts and attitudes toward chemistry were investigated. The subjects of this study consisted of 41 ninth grade students from two classes of a chemistry course in TED Ankara High School. This study was cond...
Effects of 5e learning cycle model on understanding of state of matter and solubility concepts
Ceylan, Eren; Geban, Ömer; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2008)
The main purpose of the study was to compare the effectiveness of 5E learning cycle model based instruction and traditionally designed chemistry instruction on 10th grade students’ understanding of state of matter and solubility concepts and attitudes towards chemistry as a school subject; and students’ perceived motivation and perceived use of learning strategies. In this study, 119 tenth grade students from chemistry courses instructed by same teacher from Atatürk Anatolian High School took part. The stud...
The effect of problem based learning instruction on 7th grade students’ science achievement, attitude toward science and scientific process skills
Serin, Gökhan; Eryılmaz, Ali; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2009)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of instruction based on problem-based learning (PBL) on 7th grade students’ science achievement, attitude toward science course and scientific process skills. The study was conducted in May 2007 with 141 students and four science teachers from four middle schools in Gölbası district of Ankara. A total of eight classes were participated in the study. Four of them were assigned randomly to control group and four of them were assigned randomly to experimen...
The Effect of Logical Thinking Ability and Gender on Science Achievements and Attitudes towards Science
SADİ, ÖZLEM; Çakıroğlu, Jale (2015-01-01)
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of logical thinking ability and gender on students' science achievements and attitudes towards science. Test of Logical Thinking (TOLT), Attitude towards Science Scale, and Sense Organs Achievement Test were administered to 72 elementary school students to determine their logical thinking abilities, attitudes towards science and achievement, respectively. The two-way Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) results revealed no statistically significant m...
