dc.description.abstractInternet is becoming an important reference after its use in most of the schools for educational purposes. Both students and teachers have been using internet to collect information on science and mathematics. However, the presence of so many internet sites related makes the choice of correct site difficult and time consuming. Hence, the questions of "which science and mathematics related sites are most commonly used by teachers and students?" and "which criteria are important for the teachers and students in selecting these web sites?" should be answered. In this context, this study aims at determining and assessing science and mathematics related web sites used by 4th and 5th grade elementary students and their teachers. In order to determine the web sites commonly used by the students, five open ended questions were prepared. Similarly, a data collection tool consisted of five questions were prepared to determine the web sites used by the teachers. During the preparation processes of these data collection tools, the opinions of the experts on those subjects were considered. Additionally, in order to improve comprehension, the data collection instruments were applied to three students and teachers at different schools. Considering their opinion, the tools were revised. The study was conducted in a school located at Turkey. The 33 students at 4th grade from two classes and 28 students at 5th grade from one class and their class teachers (total teacher number three) were selected. In Turkey, class teacher are responsible for teaching science and mathematics at 4th and 5th grades. This is the reason for selecting class teachers for the present study. The students were required to answer five questions related with science in a one-hour science lesson; similarly the same students were required to answer five questions related with mathematics in a one-hour mathematics lesson. The students were also asked for giving information not only about the name of the most commonly used web sites but also some other information about them. Additionally, the teachers were interviewed for one hour and wanted to answer five questions to determine the web sites most commonly used by teachers and the criteria important for teachers in the selection of the sites. After collecting data both from teachers and students, the web sites were ranked and the contents of these sites were examined.
