Abstract

The purpose of this research is to determine the impact of the contents of Educational Informatics Network on participation of students in teaching the subject of musculoskeletal system. In the study, the quasi-experimental design is preferred. Furthermore, the opinions of the students are given a place which added qualitative dimension to the study. The data set used in the study was gathered from the Classroom Participation Inventory. In the analysis of the data, descriptive statistical techniques, normality analyses and independent t-test were used. At the end of the study, a significant difference was found in favor of the experimental group. Considering mean scores the experimental group for affective participation, cognitive participation and non-participating were more than the ones of the control group. According to students' views, it was determined that the EIN contents are beneficial and helpful for learning terms better, and the classes are enjoyable.

Keywords
