Abstract
In recent years, many researches and experiments have been carried out in the field of particle physics in our world, and important results have been achieved. The results of the research are transferred to the field of education, the curricula and the books taught are updated. The subject of particle physics is given in the 4th unit of the High School Physics Curriculum. In the study, particle physics learning outcomes given in the Introduction to Atomic Physics and Radioactivity unit were examined scientifically and educationally. With the document analysis method, one of the qualitative research methods, the subjects and achievements given in the relevant unit were determined first. Then, the quantitative and qualitative status, scientific and educational features and actuality of the learning outcomes were evaluated. Then, it was compared whether the achievements were compatible with the program objectives. At the end of the research, it was seen that the learning outcomes were aimed at teaching knowledge, scientific skills and competencies were secondary, the suggested teaching methods and techniques were inadequate, and the outcomes met the program objectives at a limited level. For an effective particle physics teaching in our country, it has been suggested that the high school physics curriculum should be updated, the learning outcomes should be compatible with the program, and the numerical, scientific and educational aspects should be determined well. In addition, it is recommended to focus on skills such as research, experiment, observation, classification, comparison and questioning in the teaching process, and to benefit from information and communication technologies with current methods and techniques.
