Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the expectations and opinions of elementary school students about the technologies which they used in and out of school. The study is based on informal learning approach. Data triangulation method was used to ensure the validity of the study. In the process of collecting data, the methods used were; surveys, semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions. For the reliability of the content analysis, second coder was used. All coefficients of concordance were higher than .85, which was statistically significant. As conclusion, it was found that the participants' use of Facebook, MSN and YouTube are most frequently in their daily life. Wiki and blogs are the least frequent applications they use and nobody even mention about podcasts. . It is worth to mention that, participants do not use many applications other than search engines and Office software for their educational purposes. The applications they were willing to use for their educational purposes were basically in coincidence with the ones they were already using in their daily life. The differences between students' use of technologies, in and out of school are accepted as an indicator of students' digital experience differences .

Özet

Bu çalışmada informal öğrenme yaklaşımı temel alınarak ilköğretim öğrencilerinin okul içinde ve dışında kullandıkları teknolojilerle ilgili görüş ve beklentilerini belirlemek amaçlanmıştır. Veriler anket, yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme ve odak grup tartışmaları aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler içerik analizi ile çözümlenmiştir. Geçerliliğin sağlanması amacıyla veri üçlemesi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Güvenirlikle ilgili olarak ikinci kodlayıcı ile yüzdelik uyumuna bakılmış ve .85 üstünde uyum bulunmuştur. Verilerin analizi sonunda öğrencilerin günlük hayatlarında en fazla Facebook, sonra sırasıyla MSN ve YouTube uygulamasını kullandıkları; en az viki ve blog uygulamalarını kullandıkları, Podcastten ise hiç söz edilmediği belirlenmiştir. Derslerinde Office uygulaması ve arama motoru dışında diğer internet uygulamalarına pek fazla yer vermedikleri dikkati çekmiştir. Derslerinde kullanmak istedikleri uygulamaların da günlük hayattaki teknoloji kullanımına paralel olduğu görülmüştür. Öğrencilerin okul içinde ve dışında kullandıkları teknolojilerin farklı olması dijital uyumsuzluğun bir göstergesi olarak kabul edilmiştir.
