Özet

This study focuses on the use of materials in the social studies course. The aim of this study is to

determine the effect on student attitude and motivation of using educational comics and

educational cartoons as teaching material in 6th-grade social studies course. Educational comics

and educational cartoons were used as teaching materials in different experimental groups and

their effects on student attitude and motivation towards the social studies course were tried to be

determined. In the study, quasi-experimental design with pretest and posttest control group,

which is one of the quantitative research designs, was used. The study was carried out in three

different schools located in a city centre. The data were collected from 260 6th-grade students.

There are two experimental groups and one control group in the study. Social Studies Attitude

Scale and Social Studies Motivation Scale were used as a data collection tool. These scales were

applied once before and after the lecture process. One-Way ANOVA and Paired-Samples t Test

were used to analyse the data. According to the findings obtained as a result of the analysis of the

data, there was a significant difference in the attitude and motivation levels of the students

between the experimental group in which educational comics were used and the control group.

Likewise, a significant difference was observed between the experimental group in which

educational cartoons were used and the control group. However, no significant difference was

observed between the experimental groups. According to the results of the research, it can be said

that the use of both educational comics and educational cartoons in the social studies positively

affects the attitude and motivation of the students towards the lesson. For this reason, researchers

suggest that teachers who want to attract their students to the lesson should consider educational

comics and educational cartoons as an effective alternative. Researchers also suggest that future

studies should determine teacher views on educational comics and educational cartoons.
