The Effects of the Technology Supported Problem-Based Learning Activities on Students’ Achievement in Mathematics

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Technology Supported Problem Based Learning Applications (TPA) on the academic achievement of the students over function. In the current study, pre-experimental design with a Static Group Comparison was used. TPA was applied to treatment group the while Traditional Teaching was applied to control group. The application lasted for one month (20 lesson hours). Before the application, the equality of the treatment and control groups in terms of mathematical achievement was determined with the readiness test applied. At the end of the application, Function Achievement Test was applied to learn whether TPA has an effect on the academic achievement in function. As a result of the analyses, a significant difference as statiscally was found in favour of treatment group in terms of the academic achievement in function between treatment and control group
