Sınıf öğretmenlerinin teknolojik pedagojik alan bilgilerinin ıncelenmesi

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between demographic and technology related variables with Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) of primary school teachers. The participants were 411 primary school teachers in the city of Edirne who volunteered to answer the online data collection instrument. The first part of the instrument consisted of items on demographics and technology use. The second part was the TPACK instrument developed by Schmidt, et.al (2009) and adapted to Turkish by Öztürk and Horzum (2011). The results showed that primary school teachers found themselves competent in TPACK, the ANOVA results show that there was not a significant difference between the level of the last attained degree of the teachers and the factors of TPACK; however, there was a significant difference between some of the factors of TPACK and the other variables: Teachers’ TK showed significant difference in relation to gender; male teachers had a higher self-efficacy towards TK. Teachers with experience of 16 years and more found themselves more competent in CK and PCK compared to teachers with 1 to 5 years of experience. In addition, having an in-service training on technology had a positive influence on the development of teachers’ TK and CK.
