Eğitimde Akıllı Telefon Uygulaması Kullanımı

Year 2021, Volume: 22 Issue: 1, 542 - 570, 30.04.2021

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı akıllı telefon uygulamalarının öğretmen adaylarının eğitiminde kullanılabilirliğini incelemektir. Bu araştırmada, nitel ve nicel araştırma yaklaşımlarının bütünleştirildiği karma yöntem tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmanın uygulaması, 2015-2016 eğitim öğretim yılının bahar döneminde, Sınıf Öğretmenliği programında öğrenim gören 2. Sınıf öğretmen adayları ile Beden Eğitimi ve Oyun Öğretimi dersinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın deneysel çalışmasına 36 kişilik deney (30 Erkek, 6 Kız) ve 36 kişilik kontrol (29 Erkek, 7 Kız) grubu katılmıştır. Araştırmada ayrıca anket ve yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme kullanılarak da veri toplanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda öğretmen adaylarının eğitimde akıllı telefon uygulaması kullanılmasını çoğunlukla yararlı buldukları ve gelecekte de yine akıllı telefon uygulaması ile eğitim görmek istedikleri görülmektedir. Ayrıca yapılan çalışmada akıllı telefon uygulamasından yararlanan öğrenciler akademik olarak akıllı telefon uygulamasından yararlanmayan öğrencilerden çok daha başarılı olduğu görülmüştür. Öğretmen adaylarına göre eğitimde akıllı telefon uygulaması kaçırılan derslerin telafi edilebilmesi, tekrar tekrar kullanılabilmesi, öğrenmeyi kolaylaştırması, öğrenimi bireyselleştirmesi ve istenildiği zaman ulaşılabilmesi gibi birçok yarar sağlamaktadır.

Use of Smartphone Apps in Education

Year 2021, Volume: 22 Issue: 1, 542 - 570, 30.04.2021

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the applicability of smartphone apps in the training of pre-service teachers. In this research, a mixed method approach is preferred. The application of the research was carried out in the spring term of the 2015-2016 academic year in the Physical Education and Game Teaching course. The subjects were the prospective teachers at 2nd grade who were studying in the primary school teaching program. The participant number was 36 in each group in the study; i.e. there were 30 females, 6 males in the experimental group while 29 females and 7 males participated in the control group. The data collection procedure involved a questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. As a result of the study, it was found that the prospective teachers mostly thought that the use of smartphone apps in education was useful and they wanted to study with smartphone apps in their future education as well. In addition, it was observed that the students who used the smartphone app which was developed for the study were academically far more successful than those who did not use the app. According to the prospective teachers, smartphone apps in education provided many benefits, such as compensation for the missed classes, repeated usage, facilitation and individualization of learning and easy access.
