Students' Views about Hidden Curriculum Practices in Science Class

The main objective of this research is to reveal the 5th-grade students' views about the hidden curriculum practices carried out in the science course. The research has been arranged according to qualitative design. The "Interview" technique has been used to determine students ' views on hidden curriculum practices in the science course, and the descriptive analysis approach has been used in analysing the qualitative data that had been collected. The study group of the research consists of 25 randomly selected 5th-grade students at Mavikent Secondary School in the centre of Isparta in the 2018-2019 academic year. As a result of the research, it has been observed that students' attitudes towards hidden program practices were positive. With this research, it is thought that as long as the hidden curriculum practices consummate the missing parts of the official program, it will give more effective results in gaining the targeted results in educational activities.
