The purpose of this study is to examine students' perceptions of the nature of science and metaphors related to the concept of robot, to determine the differentiation in these perceptions and metaphors resulting from LEGO NXT robot applications, and to share some good examples of education-oriented activities with robots. In this study, a hybrid research method, which is a blend of a qualitative descriptive survey model, pre-test, post-test semi-experimental patterns without controlled group, is utilized. The working groups consist of 48 students, who are volunteers to take part in the research, from 3 different high schools. The data are collected using a " metaphor form " consisting of open-ended questions, utilizing the Scale for Understating Nature of Science. The findings based on our analyses are as follows: The students' perception on the nature of science is generally at medium level and there are no students with low level of perception. Activities with ro...

ABSTRACT An increasing lack of interest among teenagers towards a career in engineering and technology is a phenomenon reported in literature. Although there are various reasons behind this fact, misperception about the nature of science and engineering seems to be the predominant cause among the others. In this paper, we are going to discuss the experiences acquired from a project, which has been supported, by Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) within Science & Society Program. The aim of the project is to bring out good samples of teaching activities that integrate technology education with pre-conditions of scientific literacy by focusing on design and engineering exercises to help students develop a positive attitude towards engineering and technology and to eliminate their prejudices and misconceptions. LEGO Mindstorms NXT robots have been used as a suitable platform. The results obtained by pre-test and post-test indicate that the robotic activities within the project contribute considerably to the perception of nature of science positively. A plan to have a wider impact and sustainability will be also recommended by modifying the structure of the project to include activities related to teacher training.
