This study explores how an inquiry-based activity planning template—structured around Inquire, Investigate, and Inspire stages—supports pre-service teachers in designing climate change education activities. The tem-plate encouraged participants to generate "I wonder" questions, promote student-led inquiry, and transform complex environmental topics into ac-tionable lessons. Pre-service teachers from various disciplines developed and simulated activity plans using the template. Data sources included written plans and post-implementation interviews. Document analysis focused on inquiry clarity, curricular relevance, feasibility, student engagement, and assessment design. Thematic analysis revealed that using the template itera-tively enhanced participants’ pedagogical skills, fostering interdisciplinary, inquiry-based approaches, and increasing confidence in lesson design. Par-ticipants also reported improved collaboration, real-time lesson refinement, and deeper awareness of student engagement and assessment. Challenges included aligning with rigid curriculum standards and adapting tasks to diverse developmental levels. The study highlights the need for flexible cur-ricular tools and sustained mentorship in teacher education to support in-quiry-based learning.
Bu araştırma, öğretmen adaylarının iklim değişikliği eğitimi bağlamında sorgulama temelli etkinlikler planlama ve mevcut eğitim programlarını esnek bir şekilde uyarlama becerilerini geliştirmelerine odaklanmaktadır. Çalışmada kullanılan etkinlik şablonu, “Sorgula, Araştır, İlham Ver” adımlarını temel alarak tasarlanmıştır. Bu yapılandırma, öğretmen adaylarının öğrencilerin aktif katılımını teşvik eden ve sorgulama odaklı bir öğrenme ortamı kurgulamasına yardımcı olmayı amaçlamaktadır. Süreç boyunca öğretmen adayları, "Merak ediyorum..." soruları geliştirerek ders planlarının başlangıç noktasını oluşturmuş, bu sayede karmaşık çevresel konuları öğrencilerin anlayabileceği somut öğrenme deneyimlerine dö-nüştürmeyi öğrenmişlerdir. Çalışmaya farklı bölümlerinden toplam 57 öğretmen adayı katılmıştır. Katılımcılar, sorgulama temelli etkinlik şablo-nunu kullanarak iklim değişikliği konulu etkinlik planları geliştirmiştir. Bu planlar kontrollü bir eğitim ortamında uygulanmış ve uygulama sonrasında süreç değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırmanın verileri, katılımcıların hazırladığı yazılı etkinlik planları ve uygulama sonrası gerçekleştirilen yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmelerden elde edilmiştir. Toplanan veriler beş ana başlık altında incelenmiştir: oluşturulan sorgulama sorularının açıklığı ve programa uygunluğu, sorgulama temelli öğrenme stratejilerinin etkinliklere entegrasyonu, planların uygulanabilirlik düzeyi, öğrenci katılımını artırma potansiyeli ve değerlendirme yöntemlerinin niteliği. Görüşme verileri ise öğretmen adaylarının şablonu kullanma deneyimlerini, karşılaştıkları zor-lukları ve mesleki gelişim süreçlerini anlamaya yönelik tematik olarak analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, etkinlik şablonunun düzenli kullanımı sayesinde öğretmen adaylarının iklim değişikliği gibi disiplinler arası bir ko-nuyu sorgulama temelli ve yerel bağlama uygun bir şekilde ele alma becer-ilerini geliştirdiğini göstermektedir. Katılımcılar, sadece etkinlik hazırla-makla kalmayıp, öğrencilerin anlamlı öğrenme deneyimleri yaşamalarını hedefleyen planlar geliştirdiklerini ifade etmiştir. Ancak programın esnek olmaması, zaman kısıtları ve farklı yaş gruplarına uygunlaştırma konuları sürecin önündeki başlıca engeller olarak belirtilmiştir. Çalışma, öğretmen eğitiminde sorgulama temelli planlama yaklaşımlarının desteklenmesi gerek-tiğini vurgulamaktadır.
