Öz

İçinde bulunduğumuz dönem ve özellikle Korona salgın hastalığının yoğun olarak varlığını gösterdiği zamanlar dijital teknolojilerin kullanımını artırmıştır. Dijitalleşme iletişim imkanlarını geliştirmiştir. Bu imkanları almış oldukları eğitimle orantılı bir şekilde en iyi İletişim Fakültesi öğrencilerinin kullanabilmesi gerekir. İletişim Fakültelerinde dijital teknolojilerin avantajlarından ne ölçüde yararlanılabileceği, teknoloji temelli öğrenmenin kalitesini etkileyen belirli değişkenlere bağlıdır. Bu bağlamda kaliteyi etkileyen değişkenlerden biri, öğrencilerin teknoloji kullanımı, dijital teknolojilerdeki yeterlik ve tutumlarıdır. Bu kapsamda çalışmada nedensel karşılaştırma modeli temelinde İletişim Fakültesi öğrencilerinin teknoloji kullanımları ve dijital teknolojilere yönelik tutumları, cinsiyet ve sınıf değişkenlerine göre karşılaştırılarak ilişkisel bir yaklaşımla incelenmiştir. Araştırma Konya, Isparta ve Kayseri’de farklı üniversitelerde öğrenim gören 262 İletişim Fakültesi öğrencisi üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak “Teknoloji Kullanım” ve “Dijital Teknolojilere Yönelik Tutum” ölçekleri kullanılmıştır. Araştırma verilerinin analizi sonucu İletişim Fakültesi öğrencilerinin teknoloji kullanımlarının orta düzeyde olduğu; buna karşın dijital teknolojilere yönelik tutumlarının ise yüksek ve olumlu bir eğilim gösterdikleri bulunmuştur. Ayrıca İletişim Fakültesi öğrencilerinin cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeylerine göre teknoloji kullanımları ve dijital teknolojilere yönelik tutumları farklılıklar göstermektedir.

The extent to which the benefits of digital technologies can be utilized in the faculty of communication depends on certain variables having an impact on the quality of technology-based learning. In this context, one of the variables affecting the quality is the students’ use of technology, their competence concerning digital technologies and their attitudes towards them. As such, the technology use and the attitudes of the students at the faculty of communication towards digital technologies were compared according to the variables of gender and grade levels and examined with a relational approach based on the causalcomparative model. The research was conducted with the participation of 262 students studying at the faculty of communication in different universities located in Konya, Isparta and Kayseri. In the study, “Technology Usage” and “Attitude towards Digital Technologies” scales were used as data collection tools. As a result of the analysis of the research data, it was found that the technology use of the students at the communication faculty was at a moderate level, while their attitudes towards digital technologies indicated a high and positive tendency. Furthermore, the technology use and the attitudes towards digital technologies differ according to gender and grade levels of the students studying at the faculty of communication
