Abstract

In this study, teacher candidates’ computer achievements and attitudes towards computer based education were compared with respect to their learning modalities. To determine learning modality, BİG 16 Learning Modality Inventory was used. Firstly, an attitude scale towards computer based education (BDE-TÖ) was used for pretest. Then, basic computer topics were taught during three months, and BDE-TÖ was used again for posttest. Also, a test was given to teacher candidates’ after the courses to determine their computer achievements. At the end of the study it was revealed that visual learners’ posttest attitudes are significantly higher than pretest scores (z=2.029, p<.05). In addition, there was positive correlation between teacher candidates’ computer achievements and the attitudes of computer based education (0.646, p<.05).
