The aim of this study is to determine whether the prospective teachers' information literacy levels and academic self-efficacy perceptions predict their lifelong learning tendencies. This research was conducted with 500 prospective teachers studying at Van Yuzuncu Yil University, Faculty of Education. In this study, ‘Lifelong Learning Tendencies Scale’ developed by Gur-Erdogan and Arsal (2016), ‘Information Literacy Scale’ developed by Adiguzel (2011) and ‘Academic Self-efficacy Scale’ adapted into Turkish by Yilmaz, Gurcay and Ekici (2007) were used for data collection. The data were analysed with descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation), Pearson Product Moments Correlation Coefficient and stepwise regression analysis. As a result, it was concluded that prospective teachers' lifelong learning tendencies, information literacy and academic self-efficacy were at a high level, and there is a moderate, positive and significant relationship between prospective teachers’ lifelong learning tendencies, information literacy and academic self-efficacy. Furthermore, it was concluded that prospective teachers’ information literacy and academic self-efficacy are significant predictors of their lifelong learning tendencies and they can explain 41% of the variance in lifelong learning tendencies. Keywords: Lifelong learning, information literacy, academic self-efficacy, prospective teachers.
Bu araştırmada, ortaokul öğrencilerinin 21. yüzyıl öğrenme becerilerine sahip olma düzeylerininin çeşitli değişkenlere göre incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Betimsel tarama modelinin kullanıldığı bu çalışmanın örneklemini, tabakalı örnekleme yöntemi ile belirlenen toplam 920 ortaokul öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada, veri toplama aracı olarak ortaokul öğrencilerinin 21. yüzyıl öğrenme becerilerini kullanma düzeylerini belirlemek amacıyla "21. Yüzyıl Öğrenme Becerileri Ölçeği" kullanılmıştır. Araştırma verilerinin analizinde, betimsel istatistikler ve fark analizleri kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda, ortaokul öğrencilerinin 21. yüzyıl öğrenme becerilerini genel olarak yüksek düzeyde algıladıkları belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin aktif öğrenme becerilerini orta düzeyde; öğrenmeyi öğrenme, problem çözme, işbirliği ve iletişim becerilerini ise yüksek düzeyde algıladıkları sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Kız öğrencilerin erkek öğrencilere kıyasla; 7. sınıf öğrencilerinin 6. ve 8. sınıf öğrencilerine kıyasla; bilgisayar, akıllı telefon ve tablet bilgisayar gibi teknolojik araçlara sahip olan öğrencilerin bu teknolojik araçlara sahip olmayan öğrencilere kıyasla 21. yüzyıl öğrenme becerilerini daha yüksek düzeyde algıladıkları sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu durumda, ortaokul öğrencilerinin genelde 21. yüzyıl öğrenme becerilerinin özelde ise aktif öğrenme becerilerinin geliştirilmesi için, öğrencinin süreçte aktif olacağı ve öğrenme sorumluluğunu üstleneceği öğrenci merkezli öğretme-öğrenme ortamlarının oluşturulması önerilebilir.
The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationship between 21 st century learning skills and educational technology competencies of secondary school students. The population of this correlational research consists of 37.904 secondary school students in central districts (Ipekyolu, Tuşba, and Edremit) of Van province. This study was carried out with 920 secondary school students determined by stratified sampling method. As data collection tools, "21 st Century Learning Skills Scale" and "Educational Technology Standards Scale" were used. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient and simple linear regression analysis were used in the analysis of research data. As a result of the study, it was concluded that there is a moderate, positive and significant relationship between students' 21 st century learning skills and educational technology competencies. In addition, it was determined that students' educational technology competencies are a significant predictor of their 21 st century learning skills and can explain approximately one quarter (25.1%) of their 21 st century learning skills. In teacher education and in-service training programs, teachers should be well-educated in that they can contribute to the students' development of 21 st century and technological skills.
