Virtual field trips in education of earth and environmental sciences

Laboratuvar deneyleri, ornek incelemeleri, arazi gezileri, yer ve cevre bilimleri derslerinin temel bilesenleri olarak karsimiza cikmaktadir. Arazi gozlem ve gezileri zaman, mesafe, maliyet, ogrenci sayisinin fazla olmasi, guvenlik ve cevresel kosullarin karmasikligi gibi bir takim faktorler tarafindan kisitlanmaktadir. Son yillarda yukarida sayilan kisitlamalar nedeniyle arazi gezilerinin guc ve ilgi kaybettigi, sanal arazi gezilerinin gercek arazi gezilerinin alternatifi olarak dusunulmeye baslandigi gorulmektedir. Bu calismanin amaci yer ve cevre bilimleri egitiminde kullanilan sanal arazi gezilerinin tarihsel geri planini ve gelisimini arastirmaktir. Ayrica yer ve cevre bilimleri egitiminde ogrenci merkezli, anlamli ve daha derin bir ogrenme ortami saglamada sanal gercekligin potansiyeli ve sinirliliklari da tartisilmaktadir
