Özet
This study aims to evaluate the courses designed using the STEM approach, which combines nature-based learning environments with informatics from students’ perspectives. Under the scope of nature-based courses, some activities integrated into" Drama, Biomimicry, Ecoprint, Basic Electricity, Metamorphosis, and Bridging Science" were conducted for 10 days. Following, a part of technology-integrated courses such as “Digital Storytelling, Algorithm and Augmented Reality/Visual Block Programming” were instructed to students and employed to perform STEM activities by getting the inspiration of the courses. Then the views of 37 middle school students who participated in the courses were collected using a semi-structured form of qualitative data collection tools in four categories: Preparation, Instructional Material, Process, and Contribution. The data were analyzed by categorical content analysis, and the …
