The sample of this study consists of 96 first year pre-service science teachers during the 2010-2011 academic year. As data collection instruments, the Academic Achievement Test (AAT), Graphic Test (GT), Module Tests (Module A, B, C, D and E) were used. This study was carried out in three different groups. One of these groups was Group Investigation Group (GIG), the second group was the Learning Together Group (LTG) and the other was the Control Group (CG), in which teacher-centered instruction was applied. The data obtained on instruments were evaluated using ANOVA and descriptive statistics. The results of this study indicated no significant difference between GIG and LTG, but a significant difference between LTG and CG. %K Group Investigation %K Learning Together %K Force and Motion %K Science and Technology %K Grup ara t rmas %K Birlikte renme %K Kuvvet ve Hareket %K Fen ve Teknoloji %U http://ebad-jesr.com/images/MAKALE_ARSIV/C2_S1makaleler/2%20(1)%20-%2007.pdf
