THE VIEWS OF STUDENTS RELATED TO BRAIN-BASED LEARNING

The purpose of this study is to determine the views of students who were taught according to the brain-based learning approach. The study took place during the teaching of “Work- Energy” with of the science course. Research was performed in 24 lessons in a schedule of 3- lessons-a-week. Lectures were performed using brain-based learning approach in this process. At the end of the intervention, an interview session was done with randomly chosen five students. During the interview session students expressed a highly positive view about the teaching practices that were structured on the brain-based learning approach. While students expressed their teacher’s role in lesson as “director” or “guide”, they expressed their own roles as “tourist” or “active participator”.
