The purpose of this research is to investigate whether the case study method supported by educational films in the teaching of the Solar System and Beyond Unit of the 7th grade has an effect on academic achievement and interest level in science subjects. Study group of the research consisted of 43 students who were studying in the 7th grade of secondary school in Şırnak in the fall semester of 2021-2022 academic year. Research was designed according to a quasi-experimental design. The data collection tools used in this research were the Solar System and Beyond Academic Achievement Test, developed by the researchers, and the Science Interest Scale, introduced by Laçin Şimşek and Nuhoğlu (2009). As a result of the study, it was found that the post-test scores of the academic achievement test and interest scale for science subjects of the experimental and control group students differed significantly in favor of the experimental group. In other studies, participants from different age groups can be selected and the effect of the educational film-supported case study method on different variables can be investigated.
