Abstract

In this study, an application process was carried out to improve teacher candidates’ self-regulation
skills. In this context, their self-regulation skills in the online learning environment, their ability to
play the flute, and their views on the process were examined. For this purpose, the enriched design,
one of the mixed research designs, was employed. The study was carried out during the flute course
during the Fall Semester of the 2020–2021 academic year. The study group consisted of nine
teacher candidates studying at a university in Central Anatolia, Turkey. In the study, Self-Regulated
Online Learning Questionnaire, adapted into Turkish by Yavuzalp and Özdemir (2020), was used to
determine teacher candidates’ level of self-regulation skills. In addition, evaluation criteria regarding
the process were determined in order to monitor the progress of teacher candidates, and a
survey created by the researchers was used to determine their views. The study findings revealed
that the application had no effect on teacher candidates’ self-regulation skills. However, there were
technical and musical significant differences in their flute-playing skills. All the teacher candidates
were satisfied with the process and stated that they gained many learning goals.

Çevrimiçi Öğrenme Ortamında Müzik Öğretmeni Adaylarının Öz Düzenleme Becerilerinin Çeşitli Değişkenler Açısından İncelenmesi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada öğretmen adaylarının öz düzenleme becerilerini geliştirmeye yönelik bir uygulama
süreci yürütülmüş ve bu bağlamda öğretmen adaylarının çevrimiçi öğrenme ortamında
öz düzenleme becerileri, flüt çalabilme becerileri ve sürece yönelik görüşleri incelenmiştir. Bu
amaç doğrultusunda karma araştırma yöntemi içerisinde yer alan zenginleştirilmiş desen tercih
edilmiştir. Çalışma 2020–2021 öğretim yılı güz döneminde Bireysel Çalgı Eğitimi (Flüt) dersinde
gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma grubu İç Anadolu’da bir üniversitede öğrenim gören 9 öğretmen
adayından oluşmaktadır. Çalışmada öğretmen adaylarının; öz düzenleme beceri düzeylerini
belirlemek amacıyla Yavuzalp ve Özdemir (2020) tarafından Türkçe’ye uyarlanan Öz-Düzenlemeli
Çevrimiçi Öğrenme Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca öğretmen adaylarının sürece yönelik gelişimlerinin
izlenebilmesi amacıyla değerlendirme ölçütleri belirlenmiş ve görüşlerinin belirlenmesi amacıyla
araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen anketten yararlanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda
uygulamanın öğretmen adaylarının öz düzenleme becerilerine herhangi bir etkisinin olmadığını
göstermiştir. Ancak öğretmen adaylarının flüt çalma becerilerinde teknik ve müzikal açıdan
anlamlı farklılıklar olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bununla birlikte tüm öğretmen adayları süreçten
memnun kaldığını ve pek çok kazanım elde ettiğini belirtmiştir.
