摘要：Physics education through physics toys is quite a popular method in foreign countries yet it is still not applied in our country. The aim of this study is to investigation of physics toys’ effectiveness of students’ physics prenciples explanation and their attitude towards physics toys. Selected physics toys include subjects of mechanic, electricity and magnetic field. In this sense, this study was carried out in order to observe how the results of this application would be in physics course. Since sampling has recently received General Physics 1 and General Physics 2 courses and their knowledge is fresh and this sampling was chosen since they would better understand principles of toys. It was concluded that, in POE teaching strategy which was applied in order to examine working principles of some toys, students who made correct prediction made correct explanation and likewise students who made correct observation were successful in explanation part. In addition, students were asked questions about physics teaching with toys and their attitude towards physics toys were analyzed. It was seen that more than 50% of students stated positive ideas about use of physics toys in physics course.
