This study investigated the effect of conceptual change text-oriented instruction over traditional instruction on students' understanding of cellular respiration concepts and their attitudes toward biology as a school subject. The sample of this study consisted of 84 eleventh-grade students from four classes of a high school. Two of the classes were assigned randomly to the control group, and the other two classes were assigned randomly to the experimental group. During teaching the topic of cellular respiration concepts in biology curriculum, the experimental group was taught with the conceptual change text-oriented instruction whereas the control group was taught with the traditional instruction. The results showed that the students in the experimental group performed better with respect to cellular respiration concepts. In addition, it has been found that there was no significant difference between the attitudes of students in the experimental and control groups toward biology as a school subject.

Investigating the science attitudes of students from low socioeconomic status families: The impact of problem-based learning
Secgin, Tuba; Sungur, Semra (Wiley, 2020-09-01)
This study aimed to examine the effect of the problem-based learning (PBL) on science attitudes of middle school students from low socio-economic status families. For this purpose, two intact classes of the same teacher were randomly assigned as experimental and control groups. In the unit of genetics, the experimental group was taught by PBL while the control group received traditional instruction. Students' attitudes were measured in terms of adoption of scientific attitudes, enjoyment of science lessons,...
The effect of gender and reasoning ability on the students’ understanding of ecological concepts and attitude towards science
Soylu, Hacer; Çakıroğlu, Jale; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2006)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of gender and reasoning ability on the 8th grade students’ understanding of ecological concepts and attitude toward science. All 8th grade students from public elementary school in Tosya participated in the study. Students’ understanding, attitude toward science and reasoning ability were also measured by means of the Test of Ecology Concept (TEC), the Attitude Scale toward Science (ASTS) and the Test of Logical Thinking (TOLT) respectively. In order t...
Effects of Conceptual Change Text Based Instruction on Ecology Attitudes toward Biology and Environment
Çetin, Gülcan; Ertepınar, Hamide; Geban, Ömer (2015-02-01)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the conceptual change text based instruction on ninth grade students’ understanding of ecological concepts, and attitudes toward biology and environment. Participants were 82 ninth grade students in a public high school in the Northwestern Turkey. A treatment was employed over a five-week period with quasi-experimental design. While two classes were called control group, two classes were called experimental group. Each teacher had one control group ...
Effectiveness of instruction based on constructivist approach on students understanding of chemical bonding concepts
Uzuntiryaki, Esen; Geban, Ömer (2004-09-01)
The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of instruction based on constructivist approach on ninth-grade students' understanding of chemical bonding concepts and their attitudes toward chemistry as a school subject. The contribution of students' science process skills to their understanding was also investigated and gender differences in terms of understanding chemical bond- ing concepts and attitudes toward chemistry as a school subject were examined. Forty-two ninth-grade students f...
The Effect of project based learning oriented instruction on students’ understanding of human circulatory system concepts and attitude toward biology /
Cömert, Gülsüm Gül; Geban, Ömer; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2014)
The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of project based learning oriented instruction (PBLOI) on 11th grade students’ achievement in human circulatory system concepts and their attitudes toward biology as a school subject when compared to traditional designed biology instruction (TDBI). Seventy two 11th grade students from two classes in a public high school in Ankara participated in this study in the second semester of 2008-2009. These classes were randomly assigned as control and experimental g...
