Abstract |
This research aims to determine the relationship between storytelling, an effective learning method, and creative thinking and its contribution to citizenship education. A mixed research method, combining quantitative and qualitative research methods, was used in the research. Kaytez's "Creative Thinking and Personality Traits Scale (YDKÖÖ)" was used in the quantitative part of the research. A semi-structured interview form was used in the qualitative part of the research. The study sample consisted of 120 5-year-old students attending independent kindergartens affiliated with the Amasya Provincial Directorate of National Education in the 2024-2025 academic year. The SPSS 23 package program was used to analyze the quantitative data, and analyses were conducted using parametric tests such as the independent samples t-test and One-way Anova. The MAXQDA-24 qualitative data analysis program was used for the analyses of the qualitative dimension of the research. According to the quantitative analysis results performed to determine the relationship between storytelling and creative thinking; The experimental group was found to have statistically higher total scores and averages on the creative thinking and personality traits scales than the control group. The qualitative analysis conducted to examine the relationship between storytelling and citizenship education revealed that the experimental group, which used the storytelling method, was able to provide more detailed and appropriate answers to the questions. In the control group, the response "I don't know" as a subcode was found to be more frequent than the experimental group. In summary, the analyses revealed that storytelling significantly contributes to creative thinking and citizenship education. |
