Abstract
The aim of this study is to research the effect of teaching of the unit of systems in our body with the fishbone technıque on the academic success of the students. This study has been carried out together with forty four students that study at the 6th grade of a secondary school in Kahramanmaraş in 2015-2016 school years. Pretest-posttest hasn’t been equalized as a control group in the study but quasi-experimental model has been used. While the lessons in the control group were taught according to the existing curriculum, the lessons in the experimental group were taught with the fishbone technıque. The study datas have been collected by the test of academic success which consists of thirty items. The reliability of the success of the academic test that includes the unit of systems in our body has been calculated as 0,85. The study was completed in 7 weeks-28course hours. The data obtained have been evaluated in SPSS-15 packaged software. Group distributions have been determined in the analysis of data and the result of the test of Shipiro Wilk in which the groups showed a normal distribution has been seen. After this phase, data have been analyzed with the use of the techniques of paired samples t-test and ındependent samples t-test. As a result, it has been observed that the use of the fishbone technıque in the 6th grade unit of systems in our body provided a significant increase on the academic success of the students, but a significant difference between the fishbone technıque and the existing curriculum hasn’t been observed in respect of academic success.
