“I’m not committed to give grades to things like this. We use the evaluation activities at the end of the
unit in the textbook for evaluating. I think (game activity) won’t truth to life. Students who like playing
games will be more successful.”
When it was asked teachers to evaluate the activity with regard to time, availability of students’ qualifications
and quantities, problems that can appear while controlling the class and the cost of the game, almost all of them
thought there wouldn’t be any problems about time, but 1 teacher expressed it wouldn’t be suitable in point of
time. While 11 teachers stated, students’ qualifications and quantities were suitable for the game, the others
expressed their concerns like these.
“May be they can’t cognize the placement and will place (the part) where they want.”
“Students’ playing qualification will change up to groups in class.”
14 of the teachers expressed that they wouldn’t have any problem and 2 of them said that they would have a little
problem with controlling the class.
“Class control won’t be a problem, anyway they prefer playing game.”
“There will be a little chaos while controlling class, but it can be at any times. It is a thing that they can
like, so there won’t be a problem.”
“I group the students and make little contests and there is loud noise. When I say if they were quiet they
would get point, there isn’t a problem. When there is a normal game, there is noise.”
All of the teachers stated it is appropriate.
“It can be made with cheaper materials. I can prepare it with a pasteboard and a pen.”
When their thoughts about preparing and making students to prepare a game like this asked, 10 teachers said that
they could prepare, and they could make students to prepare it. 4 teachers said that they could prepare but they
would prefer to make students to prepare it, 1 teacher said she could make students with a support and 1 teacher
said she can’t prepare and can’t make students to prepare. Some teachers’ thoughts about these are below:
“We prepare game cards sometimes. We prepared a card game about magnetizing. They prepare puzzles
more.”
“I prepare. I find it more appropriate making students to prepare it. They are more curious about thing like
this.”
“I do but I would prefer to make students to do. There isn’t much time to do an extra thing.”
“I can make student to do it by taking a support from technology teacher.”
“I can’t do it by myself. I will use it if it is ready-made. It seems loosing time to make students to prepare
it. Anyway curriculum isn’t finished in time.”
