Abstract

This study investigated the learning performance and opinions of university students on hypermedia with different page lengths. The subjects were 127 undergraduate students from the Faculty of Education, YTU. Two hypermedia, one with long and the other with short pages, were designed by the researchers. The content presented on these hypermedia, the multiple choice test and a questionnaire to collect the opinions were also developed by the researchers. To analyze the findings independent group t-test and Mann-Whitney-U tests were utilized. Major finding of the study is that the page length did not affect the learning achievement of students. All students did well on both short and long page conditions, also they were all happy with the page length they worked on. This shows that designing computer-assisted or Web-based instructional materials with short pages as eveybody got used to is not a necessity for the university students.

Özet

Bu araştırmada, öğrenme amaçlı hiperortamların sayfa uzunluğunun, üniversite öğrencilerinin öğrenme performanslarına (başarı, çalışma ve test süresi) ve ortamla ilgili memnuniyete etkisi incelenmiştir. Araştırma YTÜ Eğitim Fakültesinde öğrenim gören 127 lisans öğrencisi üzerinde ve deneysel işlemde kullanılmak üzere sayfaları uzun ve kısa olmak üzere araştırmacılarca geliştirilmiş iki farklı hiperortamda gerçekleştirilmiştir. Hiperortamda sunulan Beyne Dayalı Öğrenme konulu içerik, çoktan seçmeli başarı testi ve hiperortamla ilgili görüş anketi araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilmiştir. İstatistik analizler için bağımsız grup t-testi ve Mann-Whitney-U testi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular, sayfa uzunluğunun öğrencilerin öğrenme performanslarını ve hiperortamla ilgili görüşlerini etkilemediğini göstermiştir. Bu bulgu, bilgisayar-destekli ve Web-tabanlı öğretim materyallerinde alışılmış bir uygulama olan, sayfaları kısa tasarlama yaklaşımının üniversite öğrencileri için bir gereklilik olmadığını göstermiştir.
