Veysel DEMİRER, Cemal Hakan DİKMEN.




Abstract

With the rapid advancement of technology, several countries initiate new projects to integrate technology into education. Similarly, Turkey launched “Movement of Enhancing Opportunities and Improving Technology Project (FATİH Project)” in 2010. Teachers as the practitioners of the project have great responsibility for the successful implementation of the project. Therefore, in this qualitative case study; opinions of teachers about FATİH Project were collected through a semi-structured interview form. The study group was identified by convenience sampling method and it is consisted of 32 teachers (19 male, 13 female) from various branches who work at high schools in which FATİH Project is implemented. Content analysis method was used in order to analyze the data collected in the study and to find out the necessary concepts and relationships. The obtained data were analyzed in the context of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) and discussed based on the literature. The results of the study show that the FATIH Project is inadequate in terms of implementation, infrastructure and information activities while showing ease of access to resources, enriching learning environments, and helping learners to make learning easier. The study results and findings are thought to contribute to achievement of the objectives of the FATİH Project, and it is expected to shed light on the works to be conducted in literature thereafter.

Key words: FATİH Project, Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge, Opinions of Teachers
