Öğrencilerin Gözüyle Kitlesel Çevrimiçi Açık Derslerin (KAÇD) İncelenmesi
Bu çalışma, öğrencilerin Kitlesel Açık Çevrimiçi Derslere (KAÇD) yönelik tutumlarını çeşitli değişkenler açısından betimlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaçla, bir devlet üniversitesinde dört farklı uzaktan eğitim odaklı ders alan 416 üniversite birinci sınıf öğrencisi çalışmamıza katılmıştır. Araştırmada, değişkenler arası ilişkilerin genel betimlemenin bir parçası olarak ele alındığı betimsel araştırma desenlerinden tarama yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Tüm gruba ulaşmanın oldukça güç olması nedeniyle erişilebilir örnekleme ulaşmak için uygun örneklem tekniği kullanılmıştır. Katılımcılardan 8 faktör ve 34 beşli Likert tipi maddeden oluşan bir tutum ölçeğini puanlamaları istenmiştir. Toplanan veriler Kruskal Wallis ve Mann Whitney U Testleriyle analiz edilmiş, verilere ait kapsamlı bir betimleme elde etmek için madde temelli analiz uygulanmıştır. İlgili alan yazınla analiz sonuçları sunulmuş, tartışılmış; ileriki araştırmalar ve araştırmacılar için öneriler ortaya konulmuştur.
Inquiring Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCS) through the Lens of Students
The present study aims to depict the picture of students’ perceptions on MassiveOpen Online Courses (MOOCs) regarding several variables. To attain this goal, 416 freshmanstudents, who take four different distance education oriented courses in a state universityparticipated to our study. The study adopts survey method of the descriptive research designs, inwhich relationships of the variables as part of overall descriptions are examined. The conveniencesampling technique is used to reach the accessible population of the study since it is hard to reachto the entire group. The participants were asked to score on a perception questionnaire, whichconsisted of 8 factors and 34 five-point Likert type items. The collected data were analysed throughKruskal Wallis and Mann Whitney U Test and item-based analysis were performed to get a clearcutpicture of the data. The analysis results were presented and discussed based on the relevantliterature, and future recommendations were put forth for further research studies andresearchers.
