Özel Yetenekli Çocukların Eğitimi için Yenilikçi Teknolojik Uygulamaların Destek Eğitim Odası Öğretmenlerinin Teknoloji Kullanımına Yönelik Tutum ve Görüşlerine Etkisi

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, özel yetenekli çocukların eğitim ihtiyaçlarına yönelik hazırlanan yenilikçi uygulamaların öğretildiği etkinliklerin, destek eğitim odası öğretmenlerinin eğitimde teknoloji kullanımına yönelik tutum ve görüşlerini nasıl etkilediğini belirlemektir. Güneydoğu ve Doğu Anadolu Bölgesi'nde görev yapan 30 öğretmenle gerçekleştirilen bu çalışmada karma yöntem kullanılmış, animasyon, artırılmış gerçeklik, eğitsel oyun ve STEAM gibi çeşitli etkinlikler düzenlenmiştir. Veriler, eğitimde teknoloji kullanımına yönelik tutum ölçeği ve günlükler aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Sonuçlar, öğretmenlerin teknoloji kullanımına yönelik tutumlarının cinsiyete göre farklılaşmadığını ve yenilikçi uygulamaların tüm öğretmenler için faydalı olduğunu göstermektedir. Ancak öğretmenlerin kodlama, mühendislik ve STEAM alanlarındaki teknolojilere uyum sağlama konusunda eksiklikler yaşadığı gözlemlenmiştir. Bu eksikliklerin giderilmesi ve teknolojik bilgi ile becerilerin güncel tutulabilmesi için düzenli mesleki gelişim programları ve seminerlerin yapılması önerilmektedir.

The Impact of Innovative Technological Practices for Gifted Children's Education on Support Classroom Teachers' Attitudes and Opinions towards Technology Use

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine how innovative practices aimed at meeting the educational needs of gifted children, taught during activities, influence the attitudes and opinions of resource room teachers towards the use of technology in education. This study, conducted with 30 teachers working in the Southeastern and Eastern Anatolia Regions, employed a mixed-methods approach and included various activities such as animations, augmented reality, educational games, and STEAM. Data were collected through the attitude scale and diaries towards the use of technology in education. The results indicate that teachers' attitudes towards technology use did not differ by gender and that innovative applications were beneficial for all teachers. However, deficiencies were observed in teachers' ability to adapt to technologies related to coding, engineering, and STEAM. To address these deficiencies and keep technological knowledge and skills up to date, it is recommended to organize regular professional development programs and seminars.
