Cartoon to solve teaching problem on mathematics

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of mathematics teaching with cartoons on the problem solving skills of primary school 2nd grade students based on addition and substraction. In the research, pretest-posttest control group design of the experimental model was used. In the classroom where the experimental group students were present, cartoon supported education was applied and the current program based teaching method was used in the control group class. The target population of the study consisted of 2nd grade students of all primary schools of the Ministry of National Education of Mersin. The population of the study consisted of 2nd grade students of all primary schools of the Ministry of National Education of Mersin. The study was conducted for 4 weeks in the fall semester of the 2015-2016 academic year. The experimental group consisted of 17 students and the control group consisted of 13 students. In order to determine the validity and reliability of the achievement test used in the study, item analysis was performed with the TAB program. The t-test was used to determine whether there was a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the groups. As a result of the research, it was observed that the success of the students in the problem solving in addition and substraction education has increased.

Intercultural personhood: A non-essentialist conception of individuals for intercultural research

“…In cartoon painting, I asked the individual participants to draw a simple image about who they were in their intercultural experience. This was so that they could use efficient lines and shapes to make key meanings about their intercultural personhood (Gokbulut & Kus, 2019).…”

Exploring imagination as a methodological source of knowledge: painting students’ intercultural experience at a UK university

“…Therefore, imagination can be seen as 'the ability to think of anything at all' (Stevenson, 2003, 245). It transcends human understandings beyond the 'immediately obvious' of the world (273), and captures human beings not only in terms of what they see, but also what they want to see, and not only in terms of how they live, but also how they want to live (Gokbulut and Kus, 2019).…”

“…'In the first session ('cartoon painting'), I asked the students to create a simple cartoon about any aspect of their intercultural experience. Cartoons can provide quick access to key meanings through an efficient use of simple lines, shapes and colours, with no requirement for extensive artistic details(Gokbulut and Kus, 2019). It was, therefore, less intimidating for11 Huang, Z. M. (2020).…”

“…En Turquía, se investigó sobre los dibujos animados y la solución de problemas matemáticos, concluyendo que los dibujos animados fue más eficaz que los métodos de enseñanza tradicionales, por que atrae la atención, disfrute y actitud positiva (Gokbulut & Kus, 2019).…”
