ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficiency of "Educational Club Practices" that has been in Elementary School program since 2005-2006, by examining the attitudes of students about "Educational Club Practices". Sample was selected in two steps. First, stratified sampling was employed and then random sampling was employed. A total of 941 students were included in this study. For the data collection, an instrument consisting of 30 items was developed by the researchers. The data obtained from study were analyzed according to school location, type of education, grade level and gender. The results indicate that students' attitudes towards educational club practices differ in terms of students' school location, grade level, and type of education. However, there isn't significant difference between male and female students in terms of attitudes towards educational club practices. As a result, overall satisfaction of students with the educational club practices is found low.
