TI  - The Effect of STEM Education Approach in Science Teaching: Photosynthesis Experiment Example
AB  - Nowadays, the use of Information Technologies in almost every field,especially in the field of education is increasing rapidly and gainingimportance day by day. Within the scope of educational technologies inthe field of education, studies are carried out for the functional use ofinformation technologies. One of these study types is STEM (Science,Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) interdisciplinary educationapproach. It is seen that the subjects in the structure and content of thescience course will be applied with STEM interdisciplinary educationapproach in a way to handle the subjects of different disciplines whenthe literature is searched. In this study, it is aimed to realize aninstructional design and application to gain science lesson targetacquisition with STEM interdisciplinary education approach. The targetacquisition for this purpose was selected as ‘Its will be able to explainthe factors which affect the growth and the development in plants andanimals’. Within the scope of this acquisition, students were providedto produce the arduino based experiment set themselves, and theirprocess and results were evaluated. In this context, the sample of studywas chosen by random sample selection method with 36 students whoare taking science lesson at 7th grade, 18 experimental group and 18control group. Coding and Arduino training was given to theexperimental group and they were asked to produce experimental setthemselves. The effects of teaching of application towards theachievement goal were evaluated in terms of academic achievement byusing pretest and posttest. As a result of study, it was seen that theexperimental group of students were more successful in terms ofacademic achievement, achievement target disscused in the research.
