Attitudes of the Students at Physical Education (PE) Teaching and Sports Department towards Technology Use in Education

Abstract

The aim of present study is to investigate the attitudes of the students at physical education teaching (PETD) and sport department (SD) with different demographic characteristics towards the use of technological tools and devices in education (UTTD).The study was carried out over totally 446 subject students (154 females and 292 males) attending PETSD at Atatürk University in the spring semester of 2015-2016educational term. In the scope of the study, students were applied technology attitude scale (TAS) developed by Yavuz (2005).Data were analysed using SPSS 21 software package. Frequency distribution was used in the determination of demographic characteristics, t test in the investigation of the relationship between two independent variables and attitudes towards UTTD and Anova Variance analysis test in the determination of the relationship between variables more than two and attitudes towards UTTD. Difference between the variables was interpreted at p.0,05 significance level. It was stated from the results that there was a statistical significant difference between the attitude of students towards technology use (ASTTU) and the variables of the type of program they attend, age, department and grade while no difference was found for gender. It was seen that 4th grade students had higher ASTTU than that of those at the 1st and 2nd grades. It was seen when considered the variable of age that ASTTU was higher among those ≥26 than 20-22. When the departments of students were taken into consideration, ASTTU was found to be higher among the PET students than that of SD. According to the program type, ASTTU among the students at the daytime education was higher than that of those at the night time education. It may be suggested in order to increase the interest of students towards UTTD during educational processto maximum that teachers should use technology more effectively and certificated training should be given to teachers inefficient in technology use and such education should be added in the curricula of different departments.
