Resumen
Techno-organic education is an education model that allows children to gain the knowledge, skills, and values that are necessary for life by establishing a correct balance of natural and technological understanding. This research was conducted to examine the impact of the Techno-Organic Education Model on students' academic achievements and attitudes for math. For this purpose, the explanatory sequential mixed design was used to conduct this study. The study group consisted of 38 primary school students. Mathematics Course Achievement Test, Mathematics Attitude Scale and semi-structured interview form used as data collection tools. This research included a 4-week application within the scope of the Techno-Organic Education Model program which is developed by the researchers. For the analysis of the quantitative data, independent samples t-test; dependent samples t-test; Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test, Mann Whitney U Test, and content analysis method were used. As a result; a statistically significant difference was revealed between pre-test and post-test scores for the success rate and attitude of the students in the experimental group, and there has also been a statistically significant difference between the post-test success and attitude scores of the experimental group and the control group. According to qualitative findings of the study; students think positively about the use of techno-organic education model in their courses, and they generally liked the applications and thought they weren’t too difficult, and that this particular model increased their interest in the course.
