The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of engineering design-based instruction (EDBI) on 7th grade students' nature of engineering (NOE) views. Quantitative research to evaluate students' NOE views was operated through a questionnaire which is "Views for Nature of Engineering -Elementary School Version (VNOE-E)" as pre- and post-test. Moreover, quantitative data results were supported by analyzing change on students' NOE views qualitatively. The sample of the present study was 41 students of 7th grade in a public middle school. While 24 students were taught with engineering design-based instruction (EDBI) in the experimental group, 17 students were taught with curriculum-based instruction (CBI) in the comparison group. According to the result of the one-way ANCOVA (analysis of covariance), the students' NOE views were significantly affected by EDBI. Moreover, the positive effect of the EDBI on the students' views for various NOE aspects was affirmed by the results of qualitative data in the study.

The Effects of engineering design based instruction on 7th grade students’ nature of engineering views and attitudes towards STEM Aydoğan, Berna; Çakıroğlu, Jale; Department of Mathematics and Science Education (2019) The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of engineering design-based instruction on 7th grade students’ nature of engineering (NOE) views and attitudes towards STEM. The sample of the present study was 41 students of 7th grade in a public middle school in Ankara, in which 24 of them were experimental group and 17 of them were comparison group. The sample was chosen by using convenience sampling from public middle schools in Ankara. In comparison group, curriculum-based instruction was taught ...
THE EFFECT OF ENGINEERING DESIGN-BASED SCIENCE INSTRUCTION ON 6TH-GRADE STUDENTS’ ASTRONOMY UNDERSTANDINGS AND ENGINEER CAREER INTERESTS Başpınar, Pınar; Çakıroğlu, JAle; Department of Science Education (2022-12-01) The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of engineering design-based science education on 6th-grade students' understanding of astronomy concepts and engineer career interests. The study was administered to 6th-grade students (N=37) in a public school which is located in Kilis, Merkez. Using the convenient sampling method, a school was determined among the public schools in the Merkez district of Kilis, which was determined as the sample of the study. The study was operated as a one group pre-te...
The effect of instruction with concrete materials on fourth grade students’ geometry achievement Sarı, Sibel; Bulut, Safure; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2010) The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of concrete materials on fourth grade students’ geometry achievement. The secondary purpose was to investigate their opinions and feelings about instruction with concrete materials. The study was carried out in a private school in Ankara with 32 fourth grade elementary school students. One group pretest-posttest design was used. Geometry Achievement Test was administered to collect the necessary data. The instruction with concrete materi...
The Effect of metacognitive instructional method on eleventh grade students’ metacognitive skill and mathematical procedural and conceptual knowledge Abdul Aziz, Tian; Bulut, Safure; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2016) The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of metacognitive instructional method, compared to traditional instruction on eleventh grade science student’s mathematical procedural and conceptual knowledge, and metacognitive skills. Sixty-six eleventh-grade students in a school in Bandung City, Indonesia took part in this study. Matching-only pre-test-post-test control group design was conducted. The classes were randomly assigned to experimental and control group. In the experimental group metacog...
The effects of problem-based learning method on 9th grade students’ achievement in geometry Apaçık, Mükerrem; Bulut, Safure; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2009) The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of problem-based learning (PBL) on 9th grade students’ geometry achievement. The study was conducted in a rural town of Ankara with 44 ninth-grade high school students. The randomized pretest-posttest control group design was used. The experimental group was instructed with hybrid PBL and the control group was instructed with traditional teaching methods. The treatment was given for 4 hours every week for a total of six weeks. Geometry Achievement Test (...
