Dijital Okuryazarlık, Çevrim İçi Öğrenme ve Akademik İsteklilik Arasındaki İlişkinin İncelenmesi

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı üniversite öğrencilerinin görüşlerine göre dijital okuryazarlık, çevrim içi öğrenme ve akademik isteklilik arasındaki ilişkileri incelemektir. Çalışmanın örneklemini 2020-2021 öğretim yılında Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi’nde öğrenim gören 322 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Çalışma verileri “Dijital Okuryazarlık Ölçeği”, “Çevrim içi Öğrenme Tutum Ölçeği” ve “Akademik İsteklilik Ölçeği” aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Verilerin çözümlenmesinde betimsel analizler, Pearson Momentler korelasyon analizi, çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizi ve yol analizi uygulanmıştır. Bulgulara göre öğrencilerin dijital okuryazarlık algıları çevrim içi öğrenmeye yönelik tutumlarının ve akademik istekliliklerinin anlamlı bir yordayıcısıdır. Ayrıca öğrencilerin çevrim içi öğrenmeye yönelik tutumları da akademik isteklilikleri üzerinde anlamlı bir etki oluşturmuştur. Bunun yanında öğrencilerin dijital okuryazarlık algıları ile akademik isteklilikleri arasında çevrim içi öğrenmeye yönelik tutumun aracılık rolü oynadığı saptanmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda öğrencilerin dijital okuryazarlık ve çevrim içi öğrenmeye yönelik tutumlarının öğrencilerin akademik isteklilikleri üzerinde etki gösteren önemli birer değişken oldukları tespit edilmiştir. Bulgular doğrultusunda üniversitelerde çevrim içi öğrenme ortamlarının yaygınlaştırılmasına, öğrencilerin ve öğretim elemanlarının dijital okuryazarlık düzeylerinin artırılmasına ve öğretim elemanlarının teknoloji tabanlı ders içeriği hazırlama ve sunumu konusunda yeterliliklerinin geliştirilmesine yönelik tedbirlerin alınması önerilmektedir.

Investigation of the Relationship Between Digital Literacy, Online Learning, and Academic Aspiration

Abstract

The aim of the study is to examine the relationships between digital literacy, online learning and academic aspirations according to the views of university students. The sample of the study consisted of 322 students studying at Süleyman Demirel University in the 2020-2021 academic year. Data were collected through “Digital Literacy Scale”, “Online Learning Attitude Scale” and “Academic Aspiration Scale”. Descriptive analyses, Pearson Moments correlation analysis, multiple linear regression analysis and path analysis were used to analyze the data. According to the findings, students' digital literacy perceptions are a significant predictor of their attitudes towards online learning and their academic aspirations. In addition, students' attitudes towards online learning also had a significant effect on their academic aspirations. Moreover, it was determined that the attitude towards online learning played a mediating role between students' digital literacy and their academic aspirations. As a result of the study, it has been determined that students' attitudes towards digital literacy and online learning are an important factor in their academic aspirations. In line with the findings, it is suggested to expand online learning environments in universities, to increase the digital literacy levels of students and lecturers, and to improve the competence of lecturers in preparing and presenting technology-based course content.
