Abstract (EN)

The analogies, which are known as the oldest ways of communication andhave an important place in the development of the scientific knowledge, are one ofthe most effective teaching techniques. According to many researchers, analogiesshould be used in physics, biology and chemistry lessons frequently to help studentsto comprehend the subjects because analogies are known to be effective especiallywhen teaching abstract scientific concepts.The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of analogy technique andanalogies which are used by high school physic, chemistry and biology teachers inTurkey and to define the similarities and differences of the analogies used in theother countries. In this paper, the reasons why the teachers use analogies are alsoexamined.This research is a descriptive study and it is completed 2005-2006 Academicyear in Ere li, Zonguldak with the help of 25 biology, 29 physic and 21 chemistryteachers of different high schools. A licert type survey is prepared in accordance withthe experiences of different researchers and literature, and the data collected fromthis survey was evaluated in SPSS computer programme.elde edilen veriler SPSS bilgisayar program nda de erlendirilmi0tir. Çal 0masonunda elde edilen verilere göre ö retmenler;• analoji kullan rken s n flardaki seviye fark n dikkate almakta,• analojileri kulland klar yere dikkat etmekte,• analojileri kullan rken ö rencilerin tecrübelerini dikkate almakta,• analoji kulland ktan sonra ö rencilerin yeni analoji geli0tirmelerinibeklememektedir.Ayr ca çal 0mada ö retmenlerin, ö rencilerinden elde ettikleri bulgulara göre;• fizik, kimya, biyoloji derslerinde analoji kullan m ö rencilerin kavramsalde i0imine katk da bulunmakta,• fizik, kimya ve biyoloji derslerinde analoji kullan m ö rencilerin ba0ar s nve yarat c l n geli0tirmekte,• kullan lan analojiler ö renciler taraf ndan yeterince anla0 lmakta,• analoji kullanmak, ö rencilere üç boyutta dü0ünme yetene i sa lamakta,• analoji kullanmak, ö rencilerin derse kat l m n ve ilgisini art rmakta,• analoji kullanmak, ö rencilerin dikkatini da tmamaktad r.Anketin ikinci bölümünde ise ö retmenlerin literatürde yer alan baz analojileris kl kla kulland klar fakat bununla birlikte kendilerine ait analojileri kulland klargörülmü0tür.Anahtar Kelimeler : Kavramsal Model, Analoji, Fen E itiminde AnalojiSayfa Adedi : 82Tez Yöneticisi : Doç.
