Özet:

 The purpose of this study was to determine the metaphorical perceptions of graduate students studying science education regarding the ideas of science and scientists. The metaphor form that was created for this purpose was tested on 36 volunteers through the internet. The data was evaluated using content analysis, and metaphor-related codes and categories were determined. The majority of participants created a sun metaphor to represent the concept of science. The perceptions of postgraduate students on the idea of science demonstrated that they valued the positive aspects of science. When it came to the concept of scientist, the pupils primarily used the metaphor of kid. When it came to the concept of scientist, the participants generally agreed that scientists are people who create knowledge.

 Bu araştırmada fen eğitiminde lisansüstü düzeyde öğrenim gören öğrencilerin bilim ve bilim insanı kavramlarına yönelik metaforik algılarının tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda geliştirilen metafor formu online ortamda gönüllü 36 katılımcıya uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler içerik analizi yoluyla çözümlenerek metaforlara ilişkin kodlar ve kategoriler belirlenmiştir. Katılımcılar bilim kavramına ilişkin daha çok güneş metaforu oluşturmuşlardır. Bilim kavramına ilişkin lisansüstü öğrencilerinin görüşleri, bilimin fayda sağlayan yönüne ilişkin algılarının fazla olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Öğrenciler bilim insanı kavramına ilişkin daha çok çocuk metaforunu üretmişlerdir. Bilim insanı kavramıyla ilgili olarak katılımcılar genellikle bilim insanlarının bilgiyi üreten bireyler olduğuna ilişkin algılarını ortaya koymuşlardır.
