ZİHİN YETERSİZLİĞİ OLAN ÖĞRENCİLERE TOPLUMSAL İŞARETLERİN ÖĞRETİMİNDE BİLGİSAYAR DESTEKLİ ÖĞRETİMİN ETKİLİLİĞİ

Öz

Bilgisayar destekli öğretim zihin yetersizliği olan çocuklara çeşitli becerilerin öğretiminde etkilidir. Bu nedenle, akran tercihi yoluyla zihin yetersizliği olan bir akran belirlenmiş ve toplumsal işaretlerin bu akran tarafından öğretiminin yapıldığı, öğretim amaçlı bilgisayar Bilgisayar destekli öğretimin etkili olup olmadığı, öğretimi yapılan becerinin öğretim sona erdikten üç, altı ve dokuz hafta sonra korunup korunmadığı genellenmediği değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmaya 8-13 yaşları arasında zihin yetersizliği olan dört öğrenci denek olarak katılmıştır. Araştırmada belirlemek üzere davranışlar arası çoklu yoklama modeli kullanılmış ve dört denekle yinelenmiştir. Sonuçlar, Bilgisayar destekli öğretimin zihin yetersizliği olan öğrencilere toplumsal işaretlerin öğretiminde etkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Dahası öğrenciler davranışları korumuş ve genelleyebilmişlerdir
