Özet
The aim of the study is to investigate the impact of out-of-school learning environments on students' academic achievement and attitudes towards cultural heritage in the 4th grade Social Studies course, as well as to explore students' opinions regarding out-of-school learning. The study employs a mixed-methods research approach, utilizing a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group for the quantitative component. In the study, the learning objectives related to the "Culture and Heritage" topics were delivered through out-of-school learning environments for the experimental group, whereas the control group followed the existing curriculum-based instructional process. The participants of the study consist of 56 fourth-grade students enrolled in a public school in the central district of Gaziantep province during the 2023-2024 academic year. The data collection instruments used in the study include the Academic Achievement Test, the Tangible, cultural Heritage Attitude Scale, and a Semi-Structured Interview Form. Data analysis was conducted using the Independent Samples t-Test, Paired Samples t-Test, and content analysis. According to the research findings, the Culture and Heritage education conducted in out-of-school learning environments in the experimental group was more effective in improving students' academic achievement and attitudes toward tangible cultural heritage compared to the existing curriculum. Students reported that they did not encounter any problems during the field trips conducted within the framework of out-of-school learning and expressed a desire to participate in such trips again. Furthermore, students stated that museum visits were more enjoyable, lasting, and realistic compared to in-class activities. In this context, it is recommended that teachers increase the use of out-of-school learning activities for teaching culture and heritage, administrators support such activities, and researchers investigate the effectiveness of out-of-school learning in different contexts.
