Paper Abstract:
|
Critical Thinking & Problem Solving belong to 21st century skills that enhance ways of thinking, learning, working and
living in the world. When combined with well-designed educational activities, mobile technology has the capacity to foster
these abilities. This study evaluates the Critical Thinking & Problem Solving skills of ninth-grade students who participated
in mobile-supported labs. According to the findings of a questionnaire provided to students, their skills have improved.
Students' written responses to open-ended questions before and after the mobile-supported Labs revealed interesting data
about their improvement. Also, records of students' written discussions on the Viber-platform, throughout the process,
revealed aspects of critical thinking & Problem Solving development. |
