Yıl 2013, Cilt: 12 Sayı: 1, 52 - 65, 26.06.2013

Öz

The purpose of this phenomenological study is to qualitatively describe teachers’ perceptions regarding usefulness of technology. The study group consisted of ten teachers working in a primary school in Ankara. Data were collected through semi structured interviews and analyzed through content analysis approach. The findings indicate that, there is a difference in teachers’ perceptions between personal and professional contexts. In the personal context, teachers found technology as an innovation useful in terms of “Easiness”, “Times”, “Economy”, “Upgrading Standards of Living”. In the professional context, perceptions regarding usefulness of technology as an innovation gathered around three themes. These themes are defined as, “Preparation for Learning and Teaching Process”, “Process of Learning and Teaching”, “Output of Learning and Teaching Process” and discussed in detail.

Öğretmenlerin bir Yenilik Olarak Teknoloji ile İlgili Yarar Algıları

Öz

Olgubilim deseninde planlanan bu çalışmanın amacı, öğretmenlerin, bir yenilik olarak teknolojiyle ilgili, yarar algılarının betimlenmesidir. Araştırmanın katılımcılarını, Ankara’da bir ilköğretim okulunda görev yapmakta olan on öğretmen oluşturmaktadır. Veriler, yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu aracılığıyla toplanmış, içerik analizi ile çözümlenmiştir. Analiz sonucunda öğretmenlerin mesleki ve kişisel bağlamda yarar algılarının birbirinden farklı olduğu görülmüştür. Öğretmenlerin kişisel bağlamda bir yenilik olarak teknolojiyi “Kolaylık”, “Zaman”, “Ekonomiklik” ve “Hayat Standartlarını Yükseltme”, açısından yararlı buldukları belirlenmiştir. Mesleki bağlamda bir yenilik olarak teknoloji konusundaki yarar algılarının ise, üç temada toplandığı belirlenmiştir. Bu temalar, “Öğrenme Öğretme Sürecine Hazırlık”, “Öğrenme Öğretme Süreci” ve “Öğrenme Öğretme Sürecinin Çıktısı” olarak isimlendirilmiş, makale içerisinde ayrıntılı olarak tartışılmıştır
