Eleştirel pedagoji ve teknoloji üzerine yapılan çalışmalar son yıllarda artış göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte, eleştirel pedagoji ve eleştirel teknoloji teorisini bir araya getirmek, İngilizce öğretiminde (ELT) ve ikinci dil olarak İngilizce'de (ESL) neredeyse hiç çalışılmamıştır. Bu çalışma, katılımcı eylem araştırması (KEA) kullanarak araştırmacı ve öğrencilerin iki farklı teknolojiyi karşılaştırmalarını sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır. Katılımcılara (n = 35) bir anket ve yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formundan oluşan iki veri toplama aracı verildi. Araştırmacı ve öğrenciler, çevrimiçi müfredat hazırlığının her aşamasında birbirleriyle işbirliği yaptılar. Bulgular, öğrencilerin etkileşimli olmayan Versant İngilizce Testine (VET) ve ders kitabı yayıncıları tarafından sağlanan çevrimiçi platforma karşı olumsuz tutumlar geliştirdiklerini göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte, öğrenciler, sosyopolitik konuları eleştirel pedagoji çerçevesinde tartışabildikleri etkileşimli çevrimiçi Google tartışma platformunun kullanımına karşı olumlu tutumlar geliştirdiler. Ek olarak, bulgular, öğrenenlere eleştirel pedagoji ve eleştirel teknoloji kuramının tanıtılmasının çevrimiçi platformlar aracılığıyla özgün düşünebilmelerin, aktif olmalarını, eleştirel düşünebileceklerini, eylem ve pratiği destekleyebileceğini de göstermektedir.

Critical pedagogy and critical theory of technology in English language teaching: views from Turkey

Studies on critical pedagogy and technology have been on the rise in recent decades. However, bringing critical pedagogy and critical theory of technology together has been hardly studied in English language teaching (ELT) and English as a second language (ESL). This study aims to enable the researcher and learners to compare two different technologies by using participatory action research (PAR). The participants (n=35) were given two data collection tools composed of a questionnaire and semi-structured interview form. The researcher and the learners collaborated with each other in each stage of the online syllabus preparation. The findings show that the learners developed negative attitudes towards the non-interactive Versant English Test (VET) and the online platform provided by the textbook publishers. However, the learners developed positive attitudes towards the use of the interactive online Google discussion platform where they were able to debate sociopolitical issues within the framework of critical pedagogy. In addition, the findings also imply that familiarizing learners with critical pedagogy and critical theory of technology can endorse authenticity, agency, reflection, action and praxis via online platforms.
