Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, okul öncesi dönemdeki çocukların ebeveynlerinin teknoloji kullanımına ilişkin görüş ve davranışlarını incelemektir. Bu çalışma nitel bir desen olarak tasarlanmıştır. Katılımcılar amaçlı örnekleme türlerinden biri olan kolayda örnekleme yoluyla seçilmiştir. Katılımcılar, 2022-2023 yıllarında Burdur İli Merkez İlçedeki anaokulu ve anasınıflarında öğrenim gören 29 çocuğun ebeveyninden oluşmaktadır. Veriler yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler yoluyla toplanmış ve betimsel analiz yöntemi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, çocukların teknolojiyi kullanma süreleri, zaman kısıtlamaları, çocukların bu kısıtlamalara tepkileri, ebeveynlerin bu tepkilere karşı uyguladıkları çeşitli yöntemler ve teknolojiyi kısıtlamak için aldıkları önlemler temaları altında açıklanmıştır. Bulgular, çocukların teknoloji ile iç içe olduğunu, teknolojinin kontroller dahilinde kullanılması gerektiğini, çocukların zaman kısıtlamalarına tepki gösterdiğini, ebeveynlerin bu tepkilere karşı bazı anlaşma yöntemleri olduğunu, anlaşma sağlanamaması durumunda teknolojiden mahrum bırakma gibi tekniklere başvurduklarını, çocuklarının önceden belirlenen zamana uyması gerektiğini, genel olarak içerikleri takip ettiklerini ve bazı programlardan faydalandıklarını ya da içerik oluşturulurken çocuklarının yanında bulunduklarını göstermiştir.
