Instructional Technologies and Material Design course
is one of the courses determined by Council of Higher Education (YÖK) to be
taught in Teacher Training Undergraduate Programs. As far as technology
integration is concerned, it is necessary for teacher candidates to integrate
technological knowledge, field knowledge and pedagogical knowledge within the
scope of Instructional Technology and Material Design course. Teaching
Technologies and Material Design can be seen as one of the lessons that can
overcome barriers in front of technology integration through the provision of
professional development of teacher candidates. From this point of view, it is
aimed to evaluate the instructional technology and material design course
taught by the Faculty of Education in terms of contribution to technology
integration. This research aimed to evaluate Instructional Technologies and
Material Design course in terms of contribution to technology integration was
structured using qualitative research approach. In the first stage, information
packages related to Instructional Technologies and Material Design course were
accessed via web sites. The authenticity of the obtained documents was checked.
Finally, analysis was done with the classification form developed by the researchers.
During the data collection process, the course information packages of 70 state
universities in Turkey were reached. Instructional Technology and Material
Design course information packages were examined in two categories: purpose and
content. When the content of Instructional Technology and Material Design
courses of 70 universities are examined, it is seen that the definition of
course made by YÖK in 1998 and 2006 was used as course content by many
universities without any field separation. In general, it has been achieved
that the course objectives and contents support the pre-integration and
transition phases in technology integration. As a result, successful technology
integration should be viewed as a process of adapting technology to individual
and institutional level and transforming it into a culture rather than a
mechanical process. Overcoming the internal and external barriers in front of
technology integration will be possible with effective teacher education
