Kurgusal Nitelikli Çocuk Kitaplarında Teknoloji

Abstract

Çalışma, kurgusal nitelikli çocuk kitaplarında teknolojiye ilişkin olumlu ve olumsuz unsurları tespit etmek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışmada doküman analizi deseni kullanılmıştır. Uzman görüşü, içerik, güncellik ve çocuğa uygunluk gibi ölçütler dikkate alınarak 8 çocuk kitabı çalışma kapsamında kullanılmıştır. Çalışmaya konu olan dokümanlar temin edildikten sonra ilgili veriler “teknolojik gereçlerin olumlu görünümleri” ve “teknolojik gereçlerin olumsuz görünümleri” odağında betimsel analize tabii tutulmuştur. Çalışma sonucunda olumlu ve olumsuz teknolojinin pek çok görünümüne rastlanmış ancak olumsuz görünümlerin kitaplarda daha fazla yer bulduğu anlaşılmıştır. Çocuk kitaplarında yer alan teknolojik gereçlerin olumlu görünümlerinin hayatı kolaylaştırma, kişisel gelişime katkı sağlama ve iyi vakit geçirme şeklinde aktarıldığı; olumsuz görünümlerinin ise duygusal zarar, psikolojik zarar ve fiziksel zarar şeklinde öne çıktığı tespit edilmiştir.

Technology in Fictional Children’s Books

Abstract

The study was carried out to determine the positive and negative elements of technology in fictional children's books. Document analysis design was used in the study. The study analyzed eight children books, taking into account criteria such as expert opinion, content, topicality and suitability for the child. After the documents used in the study were obtained, the relevant data were subjected to descriptive analysis on the focus of "positive views regarding technological devices" and "negative views regarding technological devices". The study results revealed a significant number of views regarding positive and negative technology. However, the study also concluded that the existence of negative views was more common in the books. It was also argued that the positive views regarding the technological devices in children's books are considered to facilitate life, contribute to personal development and offer to have a good time, while the negative views stand out as emotional distress, psychological harm and physical damage.
