Ege Üniversitesi İçin Sosyo-Yapısalcılık Tabanlı Bir Uzaktan Eğitim Sistemi’nin Oluşturulması İçin Bir Tasarı

Abstract

Günümüzde, çeşitli üniversitelerin ve eğitim kuruluşlarının Uzaktan Eğitim için belirli ağ-tabanlı Öğrenme Yönetim Sistemleri’ni (ÖYS) kullandığı genelde görülmektedir. Moodle, bu ÖYS’lerden biridir. Ağ-tabanlı eğitimde sosyo-yapısalcı yaklaşımın eksikliği günümüzde bu ÖYS’lerin dezavantajlarından biridir. Bu çalışmamızda, ilk önce sosyoyapısalcı yaklaşım ele alınmış ve sonrasında Moodle ÖYS ve sosyo-yapısalcı yaklaşım ile oluşturulan örnek bir sınıftaki yüksek öğrenim öğrencileri üzerinde ne gibi etkileri olabileceği ayrıntılı olarak incelenmiştir. Ayrıca, Ege Üniversitesi için bir Uzaktan Eğitim Sistemi önerilmektedir ve bu sistem daha önceki benzer çalışmalar ile karşılaştırılarak sonuçlar tartışılmaktadır

A Proposal for Building up A Social-Constructivism -based Distance Learning System for Ege University

Abstract

At the present time, it is usually seen in many Universities and education institutions’ usage of specific web-based Learning Management Systems (LMS) for Distance Learning. Moodle is one of those LMSs. Nowadays, in web-based education the absence of social-constructivist approach is a disadvantage of those LMSs. In our study, at first, we dealed with social-constructivist approach and then we examined in detail according to how it will affect on higher education students in a sample class which builded up with Moodle LMS and social-constructivist approach. Also, we introduce a Distance Learning System for Ege University, and conclusions are discussed with comparing this study with previous similar studies
