DEĞİŞİMİ YÖNETME VE EĞİTİMDE DEĞİŞİMİ KOLAYLAŞTIRAN BİR MOBİL UYGULAMA ÖNERİSİ

Teknoloji her sektörde o kadar hızla gelişmekte ki biriyle tanışırken nerdeyse bir yenisi ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu hıza ayak uydurmak zor olduğundan bazıları kullanılmadan rafa kaldırılmaktadır. Eğitim alanında ise yeniliğe ayak uyduramayan kimi zaman eğiticiler olurken kimi zaman da öğrenciler olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, mühendislik öğrencilerinin ders içi kullanılacak bir mobil uygulamaya karşı davranışları incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla Çukurova Üniversitesi Endüstri Mühendisliği Bölümü öğrencilerinden 70 kişi, rassal olarak iki gruba ayrılmış ve bunlardan sadece biri değişime hazırlanmıştır. Uygulama her iki grup öğrencileri tarafından indirilmiş ve onların uygulamaya ilişkin görüşleri online anket ile alınmıştır. Anket verileri SPSS Windows 25 paket programı ile derlenmiş ve bağımsız t testi ile analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda, “değişime hazırlanan grup” ile diğer grup arasında önemli bir fark olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Eğitime katılan öğrenciler uygulamayı kullanmaya daha istekli olduğu görülmüştür. Bu nedenle, öğrencilerin yeni uygulama hakkında bilgilendirilmeleri ve onların eğitilmeleri gerekmektedir. Çalışmada ayrıca öğrencilerin değişime katılmalarını teşvik edecek bir sistem önerilmiştir. 

MANAGING CHANGE AND A FACILITATIVE PROPOSED MOBILE APPLICATION IN EDUCATION

In all sectors, technology is changing so rapidly that as one is introduced, another is already in the pipeline. Owing to the difficulty in keeping up to the rapid changes, some technologies are shelved without being used. Concerning Education, those who do not adopt to innovation and technology  are teachers and students. İn this study, the behaviours of 70 students studying in the Department of Industrial Engineering in University of Çukurova were examined on the use of a mobile application in their lessons. They were randomly categorized in two groups. Only one group was prepared on the use of  the application. The application was downloded by the two groups and their opinions about the application were taken via an online questionniare. Data was edited and an independent t-test was conducted with SPSS Windows (ver. 25). The result showed that there was a siginificant difference in the behavioural intentions between prepared and unprepared groups for change. The prepared students were more willing to use the application. Hence,  students should be educated and sensitized on the importance of applications. Additionaly,  a new system to incentivize students to easily participate in the change is proposed.
