Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı öğretmen adaylarının bloglarında hangi yansıtıcı düşünme seviyelerini kullandığı belirlemektir. Nitel araştırma yöntemlerinin kullanıldığı araştırmaya  2010-2011 eğitim öğretim yılında Uludağ Üniversitesi Eğitim Fakültesi Bilgisayar ve Öğretim Teknolojileri Eğitimi Bölümünde okuyan ve Öğretmenlik Uygulaması dersine kayıtlı 20 öğretmen adayı katılmıştır. Öğretmen adayları, Öğretmenlik Uygulaması dersi etkinlik raporları için bir dönem boyunca her hafta blog yazmışlardır. Yazılan bloglar betimsel analiz yoluyla çözümlenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda öğretmen adaylarının gittikleri okullarda uygulama öğretmenlerinin ya da diğer öğretmen adayları hakkında izlenimlerini aktardıkları bloglarında daha çok anlama boyutunda yazılar yazdıkları, kendi etkinlikleri hakkında yazdıkları bloglarda ise yansıtma ve eleştirel yansıtma boyutunda yazılar yazdıkları belirlenmiştir.

Keywords
