Abstract

In the field of education, information and communication technologies and multimedia tools have become more prevalent then ever that almost all schools can obtain. Physical education which is not only very important component of formal and informal education but also an important part of lifelong learning has been affected by these developments and physical education teachers has begun to use educational technologies and multimedia. On the other hand, because of some reasons like lack of technical facilities and inadequate in-service training, educational technologies and multimedia tools are either not used in physical education classes or used ineffectively. In this study, how often and which educational technologies and multimedia tools are used by physical education teachers and – if there are – the reasons for ineffective use of these tools are investigated. Moreover, based on the findings of the study, some suggestions for physical education teachers to use educational technologies better are made

Beden Eğitimi Öğretmenlerinin Eğitim Teknolojileri Ve Multimedya Kullanım Becerileri

Abstract

Eğitim alanında bilgi ve iletişim teknolojileri ve multimedya olanakları son derece yaygınlaşmış ve hemen hemen tüm okulların belirli oranlarda elde edebilecekleri olanaklar haline gelmişlerdir. Formal ve informal eğitimin yanı sıra yaşam boyu öğrenmenin de çok önemli bir öğesi olan beden eğitimi de bu gelişmelerden etkilenmiş ve eğitim teknolojileri ve multimedya, beden eğitimi öğretmenleri tarafından kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Bununla birlikte kimi zaman teknik olanaksızlıklar, kimi zaman da alınan hizmet içi eğitimin yetersiz olması gibi nedenlerle eğitimsel teknoloji ve multimedya araçları beden eğitimi derslerinde tam olarak kullanılamamakta veya istenen verim sağlanamamaktadır. Bu çalışmada beden eğitimi öğretmenlerinin hangi eğitim teknolojilerini ve multimedya araçlarını ne kadar sıklıkla kullandıkları araştırılmış ve eğer varsa bu araçları yeterince kullanamamalarının nedenleri bulunmaya çalışılmıştır. Ayrıca araştırma bulgularına göre, beden eğitimi öğretmenlerinin eğitim teknolojilerinden daha iyi yararlanabilmelerine yönelik önerilerde bulunulmuştur
