Abstract (EN)

In this study; for special-gifted fifth grade students alternative module's progress is aimed based on students' selections by paying attention to STEM Education, Science and Engineering Application and Activity-based Workshop Science Approaches. Students' opinions about this education design, The research about the effects of the students' scientific research/product design abilities on this education design and the effect of this study on students ' scientific writing skills are the aims of the study about application this module to science lesson. According to Science and Art Center's science lesson curriculum's learning outcomes, twenty-six workshops are prepared. One of the workshop is compulsory because it's beginning of the workshops. Students can choose the others according to their wiling's. In the study, qualitative research method is used, as researching pattern, case study is adapted.

Data's are analyzed according to content analysis, descriptive analysis and rubrics. Research group selection is made with typical case sampling. Research group is composed with sixteen fifth grade students who are at science and art center in Uşak. The series of developed module were applied in science lesson during the first semester in 2017-2018 education year. The result of students' interviews; it is seen that most of the students have declared positive opinions. In terms of workshop selection system, workshop selection with democracy, doing experiment/research/design, positive interaction, cooperation, learning extra information and learning by doing, initiative of development, entertaining, exciting and intriguing students' opinions are effected positively about the series of developed module. As a result of focus group interviews; it is observed that students 'opinions have changed positively about learning process. As a result of second focus group interviews; it is observed that students have more technical details about learning process.
