Özet |
The life science course aims to equip students in the first three grades of primary school with fundamental behaviors such as being a good person and citizen, and adapting to society. This course plays an important role in developing students' critical thinking, problem-solving, and other skills necessary for their social lives. It is emphasized that the life science course contributes to the educational process by establishing strong connections with various disciplines, and particularly that its relationship with mathematics should not be overlooked. This study, which adopts an interdisciplinary approach, aims to examine the integration of mathematical concepts in the life science course. Research shows that the life science course is effective in providing students with various knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes. The integration of mathematics into life science education allows students to acquire a broad skill set while enabling the analysis of complex biological data. However, there are some challenges to this integration, including resistance to curriculum changes and student math anxiety. To overcome these challenges, it is important to create an inclusive school environment and provide students with supportive learning experiences. In conclusion, the inclusion of mathematical knowledge in Life Science courses enables students to gain analytical thinking and problem-solving skills, allowing them to tackle complex issues. This study highlights the importance of interdisciplinary integration, revealing the role and benefits of mathematics within the life science curriculum. |
