While the value of honesty is considered as one of the most important values in many researches conducted in the field of the hierarchy of values, it is interesting that there are no studies aiming at bringing in the value of honesty to students. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of value education to be applied in 5th grade Social Studies course on students' gaining the value of "honesty" at a cognitive level. The research had the pretest-posttest trial model with control group and qualitative research method was used in the research. The study group of the research consisted of two 5th grade classes of a secondary school, affiliated to the Ministry of National Education in Çınarlar District of Giresun province central district in the 2016-2017 academic year. One of these branches was selected as experiment and the other as control group by examining the equivalence of groups. 19 people form the experimental group and 23 people the control group. To obtain data before and after the application, the cognitive level scale developed by the researcher was applied as pretest and posttest. In the experimental group, the program integrated into the social studies course for 8 weeks and prepared according to the value education approaches was used. The pretest and posttest results between the control and experimental groups were analyzed comparatively. The cognitive scale used to obtain data was analyzed by content analysis technique, one of the qualitative research techniques. The information obtained was supported by frequencies and percentages. As a result of the research, the students' level of gaining the value of honesty was found to be significantly higher in the experimental group in which the values education program was applied compared to the students in the control group. According to this result, value education practices applied in schools make changes in students' behaviors in the desired direction. |
