Abstract

The main aim of this study is examining simple drawing activities performed by children aged 6-8 years through paper drawings (conventional method) and mobile devices (mobile applications). In the study conducted using the correlational survey method, a sample of 108 children attending the first and second grades of primary school and voluntarily participating in the study was selected. Drawings performed on A4-sized white paper and drawing applications installed on mobile devices were used as data collection tools. The collected data were analyzed using the McNemar test and paired-samples t-tests. The results of the analyses revealed statistically significant differences in drawing skills between the works of the children that were created using the conventional method and those using the mobile applications. In terms of object count scores in the drawings, it was observed that the pictures drawn using the conventional method differed significantly from those drawn using mobile applications. Additionally, the color variety scores of the drawings created using the conventional method were significantly different from those of the drawings created using mobile applications. Further research is recommended to better understand these differences.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın temel amacı, 6-8 yaş aralığındaki çocukların geleneksel yöntem (kâğıt) ve mobil uygulamalar aracılığıyla gerçekleştirdikleri basit çizim etkinliklerinin incelenmesidir. Tarama yöntemi kullanılarak yapılan araştırmada, ilkokul birinci ve ikinci sınıflarda öğrenim gören ve araştırmaya gönüllü olarak katılmayı kabul eden 108 çocuk çalışma grubu olarak seçilmiştir. Veri toplama aracı olarak, A4 boyutunda beyaz resim kâğıdı ve çizim uygulaması yüklü mobil cihazlar üzerinde gerçekleştirilen çizimler kullanılmıştır. Toplanan veriler McNemar testi ve bağımlı örneklemler için t-testi yöntemleriyle analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçları, çocukların geleneksel yöntem ve mobil uygulama kullanarak gerçekleştirdikleri çizimler arasında çizim becerileri açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Çizimlerdeki nesne sayısı puanlarına göre, geleneksel yöntemle çizilen resimlerin mobil uygulama ile çizilen resimlere kıyasla anlamlı düzeyde farklılaştığı gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca, geleneksel yöntemle çizilen resimlerin renk çeşidi puanları, mobil uygulama ile çizilen resimlerin renk çeşidi puanlarından anlamlı düzeyde farklılık göstermiştir. Bu araştırmanın sonucunda, çocukların geleneksel yöntem ve mobil uygulama kullanarak gerçekleştirdikleri çizimler arasında farklılıklar olduğu ortaya konmuştur. Ancak, bu farklılıkların daha iyi anlaşılabilmesi için daha fazla araştırma yapılması önerilmektedir.
