Abstract
The need for energy is increasing. If fossil fuels continue to be consumed at this rate, they will disappear after a short period of time. Therefore, it is essential to use limited energy resources consciously. How early students wins this awareness, positive outcomes will be much more. The main purpose of the study is to make students aware of the problems from early ages and the object of this study is to find out how Problem Based Learning (PBL) affect the 5th grade students literacy improvement by using knowledge tests. It is an experimental study with a controlled group applied pre-test and final- test. It was carried out with the 5th grade students on 2013-2014 education year. A total of 36 students participated in the study. The involved in the experiment and control group were selected randomly. In the experiment group, the students were taught using activities prepared by Problem Based Learning and in control group, the students were taught using traditional methods. The duration for each group was 10 lesson hours. Data of search was derived using energy literacy knowledge test (ELKT). When researched the effect of Problem Based Learning method carried out on experiment group and traditional method carried out on control group, a significant distinction in favor of Problem Based Learning method was found out. ÖzetEnerjiye olan ihtiyaç giderek artmaktadır. Fosil yakıtlar bu hızla tüketilmeye devam ederse, kısa bir süre sonra yok olacaklar. Bu yüzden, sınırlı olan enerji kaynaklarını bilinçli kullanmak şarttır. Öğrenciler bu bilinci ne kadar erken kazanırlarsa, olumlu sonuçları o kadar fazla olacaktır. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı öğrencilerin erken yaşta problemin farkına varmasını sağlamaktır ve bu çalışmayla Probleme Dayalı Öğrenme (PDÖ) yaklaşımının 5. sınıf öğrencilerinin enerji okuryazarlığı üzerine etkisini bilgi testi kullanarak incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma ön test – son test kontrol gruplu deneysel bir çalışma olarak planlanmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 2013-2014 Eğitim Öğretim yılı içerisinde 5. sınıfta eğitim gören toplam 36 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Deney ve kontrol grubunu oluşturan öğrenciler şans (random) yoluyla belirlenmiştir. Deney grubunda dersler PDÖ yöntemiyle hazırlanan ders etkinlikleriyle işlenirken, kontrol grubunda dersler mevcut programdaki etkinlikler ile işlenmiştir. Her iki grup için de çalışmanın süresi 10 ders saatidir. Araştırmanın verileri enerji okuryazarlığı bilgi testi (EOBT) ile toplanmıştır. Deney grubunda uygulanan PDÖ yöntemin mevcut programdaki etkinliklere göre enerji okuryazarlığında daha etkili olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
