In testing the hypotheses, the level of significance has been accepted as 0,5. In addition, in the analysis of students¡¯ personal information were employed the percentile and frequency methods. Based on the results of these tests, the study concludes that the test group where the self-directed learning method in a self-organized environment has been applied is more effective than the control group where the method of teaching is traditional %K £¿£¿renme %K Kendi Kendine £¿£¿renme %K Kendili£¿inden £¿rg¨¹tl¨¹ Ortam %K Geleneksel Y£¿ntem %K Deneysel Metot %U http://dergipark.org.tr/rs/issue/36603/413618
