摘要:The purpose of this study is to carry out an application that will help them to understand the selected chemistry subjectsthrough extracurricular activities through informal science education on 9 th grade vocational highschol students.By mainly considering the 9 th grade chemistry-teaching-program,chemistry newspapers related to chemistry, technology, the society, and the environment and which were prepared by students were used in chemistry lessons and for informal science education. 78 volunteers took part in this study. As the academic year began, study groups that consisted of experimental and control groups were identified and a study plan was designed in a sense that every month a chemistry newspaper (4 in total) would be produced. Within this process, 3 chemis try acheivement tests (CAT-1; CAT-2; CAT-3) developed by the researchers were used three times; once on the experimental and control groups before beginning to use the newspapers (CAT-1), once after two newspapers were produced (CAT -2), and once after all 4 newspapers were produced (CAT-3). In this sense, the impact of the chemistry newspapers, which were related to chemistry, technology, the society, and the environment, on student achievement was examined. The collected data was tested via anova analysis and a significant difference was determined in favour of the experimental group's students
