Abstract:

This research aims to examine teachers' attitudes and usage habits toward the Education Information Network (EBA) after the pandemic. The research was designed with the general scanning model. The research group consisted of 556 teachers working in educational institutions affiliated with the Provincial Directorate of National Education in the central district of Tokat province. "Educational Information Network Attitude Scale," "Questionnaire Form prepared to Determine Usage Habits," and "Personal Information Form" were used as data collection tools in the research. The data obtained in the study were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent sample t-test, and one-way analysis of variance (One-Way ANOVA). According to the research findings, it was found that teachers' EBA attitudes were in the middle range. The research results showed that teachers' EBA attitudes did not differ significantly according to the variables of gender, educational status, place of residence, age, years of service, and teaching level. When the EBA attitude is examined at the level of branches, a significant difference has emerged between the Religious Culture and Moral Knowledge Teachers and the Special Education Teachers. It has been found to favor the Religious Culture and Moral Knowledge Teachers. On the other hand, as the daily internet usage time of the teachers increased, it was concluded that the level of EBA attitude increased. In addition to these, the EBA usage habits of the teachers were examined, and it was determined that the frequency of EBA use could be considered below the medium level. While a significant majority of the teachers stated that they gave live lessons over EBA during the pandemic, they stated that there was a change in EBA usage habits after the pandemic.
