Özet:

 The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of mathematics activities carried out in out-of-school environments on students attitudes towards mathematics and to obtain students opinions about the applications of mathematics outside school and the activities carried out. The research was conducted within the scope of TÜBİTAK-2209-A-University Students Research Projects Support Program. The study group consists of 53 volunteer students studying at the 7th grade level in a secondary school in the north of Turkey. The implementation of the project was carried out in a venue affiliated with the University where out-of-school learning activities can be held. The application process lasted two days, and students participated in 10 different activities within the scope of the experiential learning strategy. Quantitative and qualitative research methods were used together. As a data collection tool, Attitude Scale Towards Mathematics Lesson was used in the quantitative part, and interview forms were used in the qualitative part as pre-test and post-test. Quantitative data were analyzed using the SPSS program, and qualitative data were analyzed based on the content analysis technique. As a result of the research, a statistically significant difference was found in favor of the post-test at the general attitude scores and in the enjoyment sub-dimension of the attitude scale, but no statistically significant difference was found in the other sub-dimensions. Based on the students answers to the interview form, it was concluded that there were positive changes in the students attitudes towards mathematics and that they thought that mathematics was linked to real life.

 Bu araştırmanın amacı okul dışı ortamlarda yapılan matematik etkinliklerinin öğrencilerin matematiğe yönelik tutumlarına etkisini incelemek ve matematiğin okul dışında uygulamalarına ve yapılan etkinliklere yönelik öğrencilerin görüşlerini almaktır. Araştırma TÜBİTAK2209-A-Üniversite Öğrencileri Araştırma Projeleri Destekleme Programı kapsamında yapılmıştır. Çalışma grubu Türkiyenin kuzeyinde bulunan bir ortaokulda 7. sınıf düzeyinde öğrenim gören 53 gönüllü öğrenciden oluşmaktadır. Projenin uygulaması okul dışı öğrenme etkinliklerinin yapılabileceği Üniversiteye bağlı bir mekânda gerçekleştirilmiştir. Uygulama süreci iki gün sürmüş olup öğrenciler bu süre içinde deneyimsel öğrenme stratejisi kapsamında 10 farklı etkinliğe katılmışlardır. Araştırmada nicel ve nitel araştırma yöntemleri birlikte kullanılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak nicel kısımda Matematik Dersine Yönelik Tutum Ölçeği, nitel kısımda ise araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen görüşme formları ön test ve son test olarak uygulanmıştır. Nicel veriler SPSS programı ile, nitel veriler ise içerik analizi tekniğine dayalı olarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda genel tutum puanlarında ve tutum ölçeğinin zevk alma alt boyutunda son test lehine istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık bulunmuş, diğer alt boyutlarda ise istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık elde edilmemiştir. Diğer taraftan öğrencilerin görüşme formuna verdikleri cevaplara dayalı olarak öğrencilerin matematiğe yönelik tutumlarında olumlu değişiklikler olduğu ve bu etkinliklerden sonra matematiğin gerçek hayatla bağlantılı olduğunu düşündükleri sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
