Abstract (2. Language): 
The purpose of this study is to compare the “traditional teaching technique” and “constructivist approach” as regards to the perception of the concepts related to the “structure of atom“. The study was carriedout with the 9 th year students in Kırklareli Babaeski High school. The students have been given a pre-test in order to determine their primary knowledge and misconceptions. Two groups have been formed with equal success rates. One of them is determined as the “control” and the other as the “experimental” group. Control and the experimental groups were taught with traditional and constructivist approach respectively. All the students were given a Prior Knowledge Test related to Structure of Atom, Logical Thinking Skill Test, Scientific Calculation Skill test and Atomic Structure Concepts test before the teaching process. In order to evaluate their success, after the teaching process, the students have been given a final atomic structure concept test. The data obtained have been evaluated by ANCOVA and t- test. The results show that the Constructivist Method was more successful, and some misconceptions still persisted after the teaching process. In order to determine the reasons behind their misconceptions, some interviews are made with the students
Abstract (Original Language): 
Araştırmanın amacı, “Atomun Yapısı” konusunun kavratılmasında; “Geleneksel Anlatım Yöntemi” ile “Bütünleştirici (constructivist) Yöntem” in başarıya etkilerini karşılaştırmaktır. Çalışma Kırklareli-Babaeski Lisesi I. Sınıf öğrencileri ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Öğrencilere “ön test” uygulayarak ön bilgileri ve yanlışkavramları tespit edilmiştir. Başarıbakımından denk iki grup oluşturularak, biri “kontrol grubu” diğeri “deney grubu“ olarak belirlenmiştir. Kontrol grubuna geleneksel anlatım yöntemi, deney grubuna bütünleştirici yöntemle öğretim yapılmıştır. Öğrencilere öğretimden önce Atomun yapısıÖn Bilgi Testi, Mantıksal Düşünme Yetenek Testi, Bilimsel İşlem Beceri Testi ve Atomun YapısıKavram Testi-İlk olarak uygulanmıştır. Uygulamadan sonra başarıyıbelirlemek amacıyla Atomun YapısıKavram Testi-Son uygulanmıştır. Sonuçların değerlendirilmesi t-Testi ve ANCOVA ile yapılmıştır. Sonuçta bütünleştirici yöntemin daha başarılıolduğu saptanmıştır. Test sonuçlarından bazı yanlışkavramların hala devam ettiği görülerek, yanlışkavramların nedenini araştırmak amacıyla mülakat yapılmıştır.
