Öz: Sosyal medya ortamlarından Blogger ve Facebook, kullanım kolaylığı ve ücretsiz olması nedeniyle yaygın şekilde kullanılmaktadır. Söz konusu ağların eğitimi desteklemek amacıyla kullanımı ve bu konudaki araştırmaların giderek arttığı dikkate alındığında söz konusu uygulamalara ilişkin bir örnek durumun incelenmesi ve öğrenen tepkilerinin ortaya çıkartılmaya çalışılması önemli görülmektedir. Bu doğrultuda uygulaması 14 hafta süren araştırmanın amacı; öğrenenlerin öğretme-öğrenme sürecinde sosyal medya kullanımına ilişkin görüşlerini belirlemektir. Tek desenli durum çalışması niteliğinde olan bu araştırma 2012-2013 eğitim-öğretim yılı güz döneminde Ege Üniversitesi Eğitim Fakültesinde yürütülmekte olan Doktora Formasyon Programı kapsamındaki Gelişim ve Öğrenme dersinde yapılmıştır. Bu dönemde dersi alan ve farklı enstitülerde doktora programlarına kayıtlı 10 erkek ve 8 kadın olmak üzere toplam 18 öğrenci araştırmaya katılmıştır. Araştırmada veriler anket yoluyla çevrimiçi olarak işlemden önce ve sonra olmak üzere iki aşamada toplanmıştır. Dersler sınıf ortamındaki paylaşımların yanı sıra sosyal medya ortamlarındaki etkinliklerle de yürütülmüştür. Verilerin analizinde nitel veriler için; temalar ve kodlar çalışmanın tasarlanmasından itibaren hem alanyazın, hem çalışmanın amaçları hem de elde edilen veriler doğrultusunda oluşturulmuştur. Elde edilen bulgulara göre beklentiler, sosyal ağlar, öğrenme ortamı, duyuşsal özellikler, öğrenen katkısı ve öğretim elemanı özellikleri ana temaları ortaya çıkmıştır. Bulgulara göre öğrenenlerin tamamının dersle ilgili beklentilerinin karşılandığı; ders etkinlikleri için Facebook kullanımının öğrenenlerin tamamı tarafından olumlu olarak değerlendirildiği; Blogger kullanımının ise öğrenenlerin yarısı tarafından olumlu bulunduğu görülmüştür. Bulgular alanyazınla tutarlı olmakla birlikte, öğretim programlarının tasarlanması aşamasından başlayarak sosyal medyanın öğretim sürecine nasıl dâhil edilebileceği, öğretim işini yürütenler tarafından nasıl işe koşulabileceği üzerinde daha fazla çalışmaya ihtiyaç duyulduğu anlaşılmaktadır.

The aim of this preliminary mixed method study was to understand dental students' thoughts on internet supported learning environment (ISLE) and to investigate its' impact on their academic success. The research was designed to enroll the students from the 7th semester of School of Dentistry. The lecturer taught dental students for four hours (within four weeks) on the topics of "anamnesis, extraoral and intraoral examination". Voluntary twenty-four students participated actively to the ISLE. During the evaluation phase, data were collected by using open-ended questionnaire, instructor's observation, students' evaluation forms and exam results. According to the Open-ended questionnaire, 90% of the participating students mentioned e-learning experience positively affected their success; 55% of the students stated that dental courses can be taught online. According to students' evaluation form, the highest mean score was granted to the instructor of the course (4.6/5), followed by the learning environment (4.1/5) and the materials (3.7/5). There was a significant difference between the grades granted to the instructor and materials; students thought the instructor was more important than the teaching materials (p<0.05). It was concluded that ISLE supported by PBL increased the students' satisfaction, positive learning environment and academic success.
The main purpose of this research is to determine teachers' views on using Web 2.0 tools in education In accordance with this purpose, participant teachers were asked to express their expectations for the training before they took the training and perceptions on the training after completing it. Additionally, teachers were asked which Web 2.0 tools they liked the most. Within the scope of the project entitled "Education Bag: The Use of Web 2.0 Tools in Education" the research where teachers' views about the process were taken was conducted in accordance with the qualitative research method. 148 teachers from 21 different cities participated in this TÜBİTAK project. An online structured form prepared for the purpose of the research was shared with the participating teachers. This form included three questions as (i) teachers' expectations for the training, (ii) training efficiency and (iii) which Web 2.0 tools they liked/favoured during the training process. Data was analysed with content analysis. Data obtained from the content analysis were discussed under two sub-titles as expectations related to education and post-education views. Participant teachers' training expectations were gathered under four different themes. These themes are teacher, course, education and student. Participant teachers' post-training views were also shaped under four themes. These themes are training, content, teacher and instructors. Majority of the participant teachers liked online test preparation tool Quizizz most. Second most liked Web 2.0 tool is Metaverse that can develop augmented reality applications. Edmodo, Google Forms, Edpuzzle and Nearpod are among other favoured educational Web 2.0 tools. Metin girmek için burayı tıklatın.
