 Today, rapidly advancing technological developments enable societies to interact more closely with events around the world. These technological changes have led to radical changes in peoples lifestyles in many areas, from education to politics. The aim of the research is to investigate the effect of Web 2.0 tools on students performance and views on the topics Climate and my life and I know the map in the social studies course. The experimental group of the research consists of 22 students who are studying in 5th grade in a school affiliated to the Ministry of National Education in Sinop province in the academic year 2023-2024; the control group consists of 25 students, 10 of whom are male and 15 of whom are female, making a total of 47 students. The study used a mixed method. To obtain quantitative data, questions in achievement tests and fascicles prepared by the General Directorate of Measurement, Evaluation and Examination Services of the Ministry of National Education were used. These data were analysed using a statistical package SPSS22. To obtain qualitative data, interview questions were prepared and focus group interviews were conducted. The data obtained were analysed using content and descriptive analysis methods. Students in the experimental group said that they enjoyed the lesson taught with Web 2.0 tools, that they found the lesson fun and that their interest in the lesson increased. They also stated that they remembered the information for a longer time. Therefore, it is recommended that teachers actively use Web 2.0 tools to make their lessons more interesting and enjoyable for students.

 Günümüzde hızla ilerleyen teknolojik gelişmeler, toplumların dünya genelindeki olaylarla daha sıkı etkileşim içinde olmasını sağlamaktadır. Bu teknolojik değişimler, insanların hayat tarzlarında eğitimden siyasete kadar birçok alanda köklü değişimlere neden olmuştur. Araştırmanın amacı, Web 2.0 araçlarının Sosyal bilgiler dersindeki İklim ve Yaşamım ile Haritayı Tanıyorum konularında öğrenci başarısına etkisini ve öğrenci görüşlerini incelemektir. Araştırmanın deney grubu, 2023-2024 eğitim-öğretim döneminde Sinop ilinde Millî Eğitim Bakanlığına bağlı bir okulda 5. sınıfta öğrenim gören 22 öğrenciden; kontrol grubu ise 10u erkek 15i kız olmak üzere 25 kişiden olmak üzere toplamda 47 öğrenciden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmada, karma yöntem kullanılmıştır. Nicel verileri elde etmek amacıyla Millî Eğitim Bakanlığı Ölçme, Değerlendirme ve Sınav Hizmetleri Genel Müdürlüğü tarafından hazırlanmış olan kazanım testleri ve fasiküllerindeki sorulardan faydalanılmıştır. Bu veriler istatistiksel paket programı SPSS22 ile analiz edilmiştir. Nitel verileri elde etmek için görüşme soruları hazırlanmış ve odak grup görüşmesi yapılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler içerik ve betimsel analiz yöntemleriyle incelenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda deney ve kontrol gruplarında öğrenci akademik başarısı açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir. Deney grubunda yer alan öğrenciler, Web 2.0 araçlarıyla işlenen dersten keyif aldıklarını, dersi eğlenceli bulduklarını, derse olan ilgilerinin arttığını ifade etmişlerdir. Ayrıca öğrendikleri bilgileri daha uzun süre hatırladıklarını dile getirmişlerdir. Bu nedenle, öğretmenlerin derslerini öğrenciler için daha ilgi çekici ve keyifli hale getirebilmeleri için Web 2.0 araçlarını aktif bir şekilde kullanmaları önerilmektedir.
