The practice and activity examples are quite limited regarding how the learning-teaching processes, which are offered by the teaching program of geography lesson prepared in 2005, updated in 2011 and amended comprehensively in 2017, can be achieved. There is not any teachers' guide analyzing the teaching program's approach and how it should be conducted is available in this matter, indeed. For this reason, the application of the program is completely under the initiative of teachers. This research aims at analyzing the discovery learning strategy, one of the strategies made use of in geography teaching, preparing an example lesson plan as to how the discovery learning strategy can be transferred to classrooms and developing suggestions in order to fill the gap in the literature even a little and increase the number of model applications. The reason why the discovery learning strategy is chosen in the research is the fact that it is in compliance with the student-centered approach proposed by the geography teaching program in effect because it is essential in the discovery learning strategy that students are centered and teachers act as guides. The research was conducted by means of descriptive analysis method. Within this frame, the discovery learning strategy was examined; the importance of planning the teaching activities was explained and a lesson template was created. With reference to the mentioned template; a lesson plan example based on the subject "Interior Structure of the Earth" was prepared in order to offer an example regarding how the discovery learning strategy can be moved to classrooms. The research results are anticipated to be useful for geography and other branch teachers and to constitute a basis for prospective academic studies.
In our world that natural resources have been rapidly consumed, and their quality-quantity have been changed, very little part of natural areas (e.g. 7% of natural forests) has been able to remain in relatively wide, undisturbed units. On such an environment, it is required for sensitive terrestrial-marine natural heritage areas to be put under conservation urgently and, for conservation-usage balance to be pursued. Syllabuses which are in the status of constitution of training-education activities are required to have a deep content and attainments so that conservation consciousness of natural heritage can be able to be created. In this study, our social studies (secondary school) and geography (secondary and higher education) curricula were examined by descriptive method in terms of conservation of natural heritage. As a result of the research, it was found that social studies syllabuses had been inadequate, but as for geography syllabuses for secondary education had been seen relatively adequate. Units and attainments, which contain concepts of natural heritage and its conservation, should appear comprehensively in our country's social studies syllabuses, and they should be drawn from 12th grades to 10th or 1th grades as for in geography cirriculum for secondary education.
Çalışmanın amacı, 10. Sınıf Coğrafya Dersi Öğretim Programı (2018) kazanımlarının yenilenmiş Bloom taksonomisine göre ünitelere dağılışını ve seviyesini ortaya çıkarmaktır. Araştırma doküman incelemesi yöntemi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma kapsamında 10. Sınıf Coğrafya Dersi Öğretim Programında yer alan 34 kazanım incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın güvenirlilik katsayısı 0.79 olarak saptanmıştır. Analiz bulgularına göre doğal sistemler, beşeri sistemler, küresel ortam, çevre ve toplum ünitelerinde daha çok kavramsal bilgi seviyesinde kazanıma yer verilirken, işlemsel bilgi seviyesinde kazanıma daha az yer verildiği, üstbilişsel bilgi basamağında kazanıma ise yer verilmediği görülmektedir. Bilişsel süreç boyutunda, en fazla anlama seviyesinde kazanımlara yer verilirken hatırlama, uygulama ve yaratma düzeyinde kazanımlara yer verilmediği belirlenmiştir. Kazanımların homojen bir dağılışa sahip olmadığı ve etkili öğrenmeyi sağlayıcı üst seviye bilgi ve bilişsel süreç boyutları ile ilgili kazanımların yetersiz olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Coğrafya Dersi Öğretim Programı kazanımları, öğrencilerin daha fazla zihinsel etkinlikler yapmasını sağlayıcı üst seviye bilgi ve bilişsel süreç aşamalarına göre yeniden düzenlenmelidir. Bununla ilgili olarak, öğrencilerin üst seviye bilgi ve bilişsel süreçleri kullanarak becerilerini ve yaratıcılıklarını geliştirecek uygulama ve etkinliklere yer verilmelidir. Öğretmenlerin de bu tür eğitimlerle kendilerini yetiştirmelerine olanak sağlayan hizmet içi eğitimlerden geçirilmelerine yarar vardır. Öğretmenlere kılavuzluk edecek bir kitapçık hazırlanmalıdır. Araştırmamızın daha sonra yapılacak çalışmalara katkı sunması umulmaktadır.
