Öğretim
ortam ve yöntemleri gerçekleştirilen öğretim etkinliklerinin başarısı için
oldukça önemlidir. Teknolojinin gelişmesiyle birlikte öğretim etkinliklerindeki
teknoloji desteği daha çok görülmektedir. Bu teknolojik gelişmeler ve eğilimler
ülkeleri de eğitimde yeni reformlar yapmaya zorunlu kılmaktadır. Türkiye’de
Fırsatları Arttırma ve Teknolojiyi İyileştirme Hareketi (FATİH) Projesiyle bu
konudaki eksiklikler giderilmeye çalışılmaktadır. Bu araştırma kapsamında
öğretmen adaylarının ortam ve yöntem hakkındaki düşünceleriyle, FATİH
Projesi’ne bakış açıları ve etkileşimli tahta ile tablet bilgisayarlara yönelik
görüşleri incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın temel odağı öğretmen adaylarının yöntem ve
ortamlara ilişkin tanımlamalarıyla birlikte FATİH projesinin bu bakış açılarını
nasıl etkilediğinin belirlenmesidir. Uygun örnekleme ile araştırmacı tarafından
konulan ölçütleri taşıyan 24 öğretmen adayına ulaşılmış, nitel araştırma
modelinde toplanan veriler içerik analizi yöntemiyle çözümlemiştir. Elde edilen
bulgulara göre öğretmen adayları FATİH projesini yakından takip etmektedirler.
Ancak, etkileşimli tahta ve tablet bilgisayarların uygun kullanımlarıyla ilgili
sorunları vardır. Bu noktada hizmet içi öğretmenler gibi öğretmen adaylarının
da teknoloji entegrasyonu konusunda eğitimlere gereksinimleri olduğu
söylenebilir. Lisans eğitiminde öğretim teknolojileri ve materyal tasarımı
derslerinde daha fazla e-içerik tasarımları ve kullanımları üzerinde durulması
önerilmektedir.

Teaching environments and methods are very important
for success of teaching activities. Changes on teaching / learning environments
and methods affect learning success directly. With the developing technology,
we have seen more support of technology at instructional activities. There are
a lot of studies interested with environments and methods in the literature.
Especially, some studies, which focus on effects of environments and methods,
have contributed to the implementations. Technological developments and new
trends in educational-instructional implementations require governments to
initiate educational reforms. For this purpose, Turkey started supporting the
“Movement of Enhancing Opportunities and Improving Technology” (FATIH) project.
The general aims of FATIH Project are (1) equating opportunities in education, (2)
supporting the effective use of information and communication technology (ICT)
tools such as interactive boards (IBs) and tablet PCs in the classrooms. The
project started in November, 2010, after approval from the Ministry of National
Education (MoNE) and the Ministry of Transport, Maritime Affairs and
Communications. The FATIH project was funded by the Ministry of Science;
Industry and Technology; Ministry of Economy; Ministry of Finance; Ministry of
Development; Undersecretaries of Treasury; and Scientific and Technological
Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK). This extensive and ongoing project has
the following five main components:
• supplying equipment and
software substructure;
• providing educational
e-content and management of e-content;
• promoting effective usage
of the ICT in teaching programs;
• offering in-service
training of teachers; and
• promoting conscious,
reliable, manageable, and measurable ICT usage.
In this study, pre-service teachers’ thoughts about environment, method,
FATIH Project and using of interactive board and tablet PC for instructional
purposes were examined. Convenient sampling was used to reach 24 pre-service
teachers. Also, voluntary participation, academic success, and class level were
used as criteria for sampling. The study was designed in survey model and data
were gathered via interviews and analyzed with content analysis method in
accordance with qualitative research design.
According to the findings, pre-service teachers have knowledge about the
project but they have some issues to use interactive boards and tablet PCs
effectively. The pre-service teachers participating in the study defines
environment and method correctly. Methods are more important for 8 of
participants (33%), while 5 of them (21%) say that environment is more
important for instruction. 11 of pre-service teachers (46%) believe that
environments and methods have equal importance on success of instructional
activities. Pre-service teachers defines FATIH Project as using of information
and communication technologies (f=13, 54%) and changing of classroom forms
(f=11, 46%). They emphasize that skills and habits are most important
challenges. They specify that the project will improve students’ and teachers’
technology literacy. According to pre-service teachers, the most important
points of using of IB and tablet PC are method and activities (f=11, 46%),
content (f=10, 42%), active participation (f=8, 33%), and student control (f=4,
17%). Only 10 pre-service teachers (42%) have mentioned more appropriate
teaching methods for using IBs and tablet PCs in classroom.
At this point, more professional development such as in-service training
for technology integration is needed. The results of this study also indicates
that instructors should focus more on designing and using of e-course content
in the instructional technology and material design courses at the
undergraduate level.
