The aim of this study is to enable successful and enterprising middle school students to be able to make their own projects and introduce them in line with their interests and abilities, and to determine the contribute of this opportunity on their academic self-efficacy and academic motivation. in the study, a single group pre-test-post-test experimental design was used. The working group constitutes 7th grade students who want to participate in the study from the middle school students in Kars province center. After the presentation of this work supported by TÜBİTAK through the Provincial Education Directorate (MEB), 42 students participated in the study. "Academic Self-Efficacy Scale" and "Academic Motivation Scale" were used as data collection tools. As a result of the study, it was determined that the students did not change their confidence in their ability and the school environment. When we look at the academic motivation levels of the students, it has been determined that there is no change in the levels of identified external motivation, introjected external motivation and amotivation. However, it was seen that the students who participated in the project study showed a significant increase in the levels of intrinsic motivation after project work. This demonstrates that teachers can do project work in their lessons in order to ensure that their students participate in the lesson motivated internally.
