Abstract
Regarding the use of information and communication technologies, acquiring basic knowledge and skills has
become a necessity. Schools offer ICT lessons to young generations in order to enable them to use of ICTs effectively. But there are uncertainties about this relatively new lesson concerning effectiveness of the lesson and
about how instruction of this lesson has been made. The aim of this study was to investigate how ICT lessons
in primary schools are taught. In order to reach this goal, opinions of 51 computer teachers were collected
through a survey questionnaire and analyzed by using both qualitative and quantitative techniques. According
to the results the most frequently used methods by computer teachers were demonstration and practice, Q
&A and lecturing methods. In terms of teaching materials, teachers reported that they were most frequently
using textbook. There are two basic approaches used for software instruction in ICT lessons: demonstration &
practice and use of written instructions. Some of the participant teachers reported that they preferred to use
both approaches eclectically. According to the findings, the time duration allocated for this lesson is the most
significant basic problem stated by the teachers in terms of implementing the curriculum prepared by the Ministry of National Education.
Key Words
ICT Lesson, ICT Teacher, ICT Instruction, Instructional Method.
In the current age where sources of information
have been diversified, the concept of literacy has
expanded to cover basic ICT skills (Yenice, Sümer,
Oktaylar, & Erbil, 2003). Educational institutions
are now expected to raise individuals who are able
to use ICT effectively (Akkoyunlu & Kurbanoğlu,
2003). According to the standards developed by the
International Society for Technology in Education
(ISTE, 2007), all students should be able to use ICT
effectively to support learning and decision making.

From the perspective given above, it may be suggested that instruction of ICT is one important
topic that educators should focus. In Turkey, ICT is
offered as an elective lesson in primary schools. In
previous years adjustments had been made regarding weekly hours of the lesson. Finally the ministry
decided weekly hour of the lesson to be 1 hour for
6th, 7th, and 8th grades (Talim ve Terbiye Kurulu
Başkanlığı, 2007, 2010).
Unfortunately, there are inadequate number of
scientific studies conducted regarding the instruction of ICT (Phelps, Hase, & Ellis, 2005;
Erdoğan et al., 2010). This situation is valid also
for Turkey. Between the years 1989 and 2009,
articles on ICT instruction were just 5.2% of all
the articles, published in SSCI journals, on educational technology (Sert, 2010). Throughout this
study, a limited number of manuscripts on ICT
instruction could be accessed. Out of these studies, some were conducted with primary school
EDUCATIONAL SCIENCES: THEORY & PRACTICE
and secondary school students (Asan & Haliloğlu,
2005; Dagdilelis, Satratzemi, & Evangelidis, 2004;
Erdoğan et al., 2010; Ersoy, 2005; Ge, Thomas, &
Greene, 2006; Gedizgil & Deryakulu, 2008; Kural
Er & Güven, 2008; Özdener & Öztok, 2005; Park,
Sim, & Roh, 2008), some were conducted with
undergraduates and adults (Akdemir & Memiş,
2008; Aşkar & Davenport, 2009; Barg et al., 2000;
Birol, Bekiroğulları, Etçi, & Dağlı, 2009; Göktaş,
Yıldırım, & Yıldırım, 2008; Gülseçen & Kubat,
2006; Köseoğlu, Yılmaz, Gerçek & Soran, 2007;
Phelps et al., 2006; Dunsworth, 2004; Ross, Drydale & Schulz, 2001; Scheepers & Villers, 2000;
Varank, 2006). Some of these studies were conducted with various age groups (Özdener, 2008;
Yan & Fischer, 2004). On the other side, the literature contains studies which are related to but
not directly on ICT instruction (Akbaba-Altun,
2005; Altun & Ateş, 2008; Dirisağlık & Kabakçı,
2009; Karal, Reisoğlu & Günaydın, 2010; Orhan,
2005; Seferoğlu, 2007; Seferoğlu & Akbıyık, 2009;
Tanrıöğen & Özel, 2011). In addition to quantitative inadequacy of the studies on ICT instruction,
scope of these studies vary (method, material,
achievement, problem solving skills, attitude etc.),
preventing us to see number of these conducted
studies are sufficient. It is difficult to mention that
instructional methods (cooperative, demonstration & practice, etc.) or approaches (behaviorist,
cognitive, constructivist) used for ICT instruction
have been studied enough.
One of the most important aspects of teachinglearning process is how to teach subjects. Arrangement of learning experiences as well as selection
and practice of instructional methods are of significance (Açıkgöz, 2003; Çelikkaya & Kuş, 2009).
Efficiency of a curriculum may be obtained by
arranging learning environments and selecting
appropriate approaches, methods, and materials
(Aykaç, 2011). One of the easiest ways of achieving curricular objectives is selecting and practicing
appropriate instructional methods (Demirel, 2006).
In other words, instructional methods employed
are important to ensure effectiveness of a lesson.
Although a number of studies were conducted on
ICT instruction, yet instruction of ICT has not been
studied enough. Scientific studies on ICT instruction may contribute to curriculum development efforts as well as other researches. They may also help
to and guide ICT teachers. Eventually, this study
was planned and carried out to clarify implementations and practices in ICT instruction given in
primary schools.

Method
Model and Aim
This research is a case study. Case studies are useful
in describing details of, bringing possible explanations to, and making an evaluation of a case (Gall,
Borg, & Gall, 1996 cited in Büyüköztürk, KılıçÇakmak, Akgün, Karadeniz, & Demirel, 2009. The
basic aim of this study is to determine how ICT
lessons in primary schools are taught. In order to
reach this goal, ICT teachers’ opinions were collected. The case was limited with methods and materials used in the lesson, instruction of software, and
weekly hours of the lesson.
Data Collection Tools
Two instruments were used in data collection. The
first instrument, personal information form, was
used to collect personal information such as gender,
work experience, type and facilities of the workplace.
The second instrument was a survey titled “Instruction of ICT Lesson”. Participants were asked about
tools, materials, and methods they use during the
teaching-learning process. The survey was developed by the researches after a literature search. The
survey used by McCarthy (1998) in his doctoral dissertation was benefitted during formulation of the
survey items. Opinions of 3 experts were obtained to
maintain content validity of the survey. Afterwards,
a pilot implementation was realized with the participation of 4 ICT teachers. Based on the feedbacks,
minor corrections were made and the final version
of the survey was introduced. The final version of the
survey consisted 64 multiple choice and rating type
and 2 open ended items.
Study Group
The study group was determined with convenience
sampling and consisted of 51 computer teachers.
E-mail addresses of 66 ICT teachers whom the researchers have had acquaintance were accessed and
data collection tools were sent to them. The surveys
returned from 51 ICT teachers were included in the
study. The teachers’ workplaces were in 28 different cities of Turkey. Nearly half of the participants
(47%) were female, while 53% of them were male.
The work experience of the teachers was between
1 and 5 years. All teachers were working at schools
equipped with IT rooms.

Analysis of Data
The data were analyzed using both quantitative
(frequency, percentage, and arithmetic mean) and
qualitative (content analysis) techniques. The data,
collected with multiple choice and rating type
items, were analyzed using frequencies, percentages, and arithmetic means. The data, obtained with
open-ended questions, were analyzed using content
analysis. In addition, open-ended reposes were
used in interpretation of research findings.
Content analysis enables reaching concepts and
relations to explain the collected data (Yıldırım &
Şimşek, 2008). This analysis (identifying themes
and coding) was performed upon agreement of the
two researchers. To maintain internal and external
validity of the coding task, themes were reviewed
several times. They were ensured to be consistent
with each other and also to explain the data meaningfully. After identification of the themes, a part
of the data set was test coded and themes were reviewed again.
Role of the Researchers
ICT lesson and ICT instruction are among research
interests of the researchers. Besides, the researchers
teach undergraduate and graduate students such
topics as use of ICT in education and ICT instruction. All activities like accessing the participants,
developing data collection tools, collecting, and
analyzing data were performed by the researchers.
project method so often. Inadequate duration of the
lesson is the main reason shown to that. The teachers, in varying percentages, indicated that they draw
students’ attention, stimulate recall of prior learning,
summarize the topic and provide feedback in order
to maintain learning. Also some teachers indicated
that they helped students one to one.
In terms of teaching materials, ICT teachers most
frequently use course book. They also prefer written instructions prepared by themselves or by other
teachers. Other sources such as web sites, animations, or videos are preferred less often.
The content analysis showed that there are two
basic approaches used for instruction of software.
These are demonstration & practice and use of
written instructions. In the first approach teacher
explains the topic generally with the help of a projector, afterwards students are asked to practice
the topic. In the second approach students are expected to follow and apply the instructions written
on a worksheet or on the course book. Some of the
teachers prefer to use both approaches eclectically.
Findings indicate that ICT teachers do not use
measurement and evaluation activities and do not
give homework much often. Teachers face some difficulties in implementing the curriculum prepared
by the Ministry of National Education. Amount of
time duration allocated for the lesson is the basic
source of the problem.
Discussion
Limitations
The main limitation of the study is the sampling technique. A maximum variation sampling might have
been more advantageous to study a broad range of
subjects. However, another sampling technique was
not used because, during data analysis, the data collected were seen adequate to depict the case. Other
limitations of the study are a) not applying to experts’
opinions during identification of the themes and b)
coding of the data only by the researchers. With the
precautions explained in analysis of data these limitations were eliminated in a degree.
Results
According to the findings, the most frequently
used methods by ICT teachers are demonstration
& practice, Q&A, and lecturing methods. Problem
solving, group discussion, and team work are other
frequently used methods. ICT teachers do not prefer
Primary school ICT lesson was designed to include
3 basic learning areas which are basic operations and
concepts, use of ICT, and advanced ICT applications
(Talim ve Terbiye Kurulu Başkanlığı, 2006). It can
be stated that primary school ICT lesson has a main
focus on the use of such software types as word processor, spreadsheet, presentation software, and web
page editor. Instruction of these software types may
be counted as instruction of basic ICT skills (computer literacy). Researchers such as Dirisağlık &
Kabakçı (2009) and Tanrıöğen & Özel (2011) report
that IT rooms in primary schools are used mainly
for the instruction of basic computer skills. From
that point of view, we can expect methods used by
ICT teachers would provide us clues regarding the
instruction of software types stated above.
In a study conducted by Karal et al., (2010) it was
found that ICT curriculum contains examples and
situations from real life and it channels students
to comprehend information. On the other hand,
419
EDUCATIONAL SCIENCES: THEORY & PRACTICE
Seferoğlu (2007) found that ICT teachers face some
difficulties implementing project based activities
given in the curriculum. Findings of the current
study revealed that ICT teachers prefer methods
more which are aiming at knowledge, comprehension and application levels. But this finding does
not mean that they do not use methods which aim
at high order thinking skills at all. Such methods
are used in a moderate frequency. It is likely that
facing some difficulties regarding especially time
duration of the lesson; computer teachers prefer the
most efficient methods to reach the curricular aims.
Although the nature of the ICT lesson is appropriate for project studies, computer teachers rarely
use this method. As the insufficiency of the duration allocated for ICT lesson has been reported by
a number of previous studies (Altun & Ateş, 2008;
Seferoğlu, 2007), this situation may be a result of
limited duration of the course. It is also possible
that teachers do not have enough time for these
types of activities. ICT teachers are viewed as technical support persons and they were also expected
to help others in some personal computer related
problems they face (Seferoğlu & Akbıyık, 2007).
According to the research of Dunsworth, 2004,
written instructions and project based activities are
seen as the most efficient ways in computer literacy
instruction. This study revealed that course book
and written instructions are the most frequently
used source by ICT teachers. Teachers prefer paper based materials more than electronic ones.
One reason to that may be the quality of the course
books. Other possible reasons may be problems of
connection and inadequacy of the Internet sources
in terms of appropriateness, design, and language.
Although a number of studies were conducted
(Akdemir & Memiş, 2008; Asan & Haliloğlu, 2005;
Barg et al., 2000; Gülseçen & Kubat, 2006; Scheepers & Villers, 2000) it is still unclear which methods
or approaches are effective for ICT instruction. In
addition to their quantitative inadequacy, the studies conducted on ICT instruction were designed to
answer different research questions. These studies
address different variables, preventing us to see a
clear picture. Perhaps the most significant of the
research is the one on the way ICT teachers prefer in instruction of software. Demonstration &
practice and use of written instructions (tutorials)
are the two basic approaches used for instruction
of software. In the demonstration & practice approach teacher explains the topic generally using a
projector, afterwards students are asked to practice
the topic. In the second approach students are ex-
420
pected to follow and apply the instructions written
on a worksheet or on the course book. Some of the
teachers prefer to use both approaches eclectically.
From the findings it is also understood that ICT
teachers incorporate various methods in these two
approaches. Future studies may investigate effects
of the two approaches on learning outcomes. In a
related study with this finding, Merchant, Kreie,
& Cronan (2001) made comparisons among multimedia based learning, expository teaching and
use of written instructions. The researchers found
that, regarding computer literacy skills, the students
who learnt in a computer based multimedia environment achieved worse and felt less content than
the ones who learnt with written instructions or
expository learning.
Yan and Fischer (2004) draw attention to scaffolding for novice computer users. Learners need less
as they gain experience in using computers. On the
other hand Dunsworth’s 2004 study emphasizes
importance of feedback given during ICT instruction. In his study Varank (2006) found that learning
computer literacy skills in a classroom or laboratory environment motivates students more than
learning these skills in a computer based environment. The common point of these studies is the
instructor support. According to the findings, ICT
teachers try supporting their students by employing such strategies as drawing attention, stimulating recall of prior learning, summarizing the topic,
providing feedback, and helping them one to one.
On the other hand, peer support is another important issue for ICT instruction. Park et al. (2007) reports positive effect of peer support on learning of
ICT skills. Some of the participants of the current
study stated they use peer support in their lessons.
We can infer from these findings, a group of ICT
teachers are aware of importance of human factor
(instructor and peer support) in ICT instruction.
We know that measurement and evaluation affect
student performance (Bayrak, 2007). ICT lessons
in primary school do not affect students’ academic
achievement points. Although giving grades is not
the main purpose of measurement and evaluation
(Doğan, 1997), a number of studies (Altun & Ateş,
2008; Seferoğlu, 2007) draws attention to negative
consequences of this situation. The findings of our
study indicate that ICT teachers do very little measurement and evaluation probably as a result of such
limitation.
From the unpleasant results such as not being computer literate of 69.42% of undergraduate students
(Korkmaz & Mahiroğlu, 2009), we understand
AKBIYIK, SEFEROĞLU / Instructing ICT Lessons in Primary Schools: Teachers’ Opinions and Applications
more studies should be conducted on ICT instruction. These technologies evolve rapidly and knowledge about them may outdate so quickly (Phelps et
al., 2005). A teacher-Centered approach for the instruction of these technologies may not be enough.
In this era where teachers are expected to employ
student-Centered constructivist methods (Çelikkaya & Kuş, 2009), ICT instruction should cover
not only ICT skills but also effective variables as
self-efficacy, dispositions, and values.
As the last words, we consider findings of this study
would concern academicians, educators, and experts who are interested in ICT instruction. We
also think the findings are not valid just for primary
school ICT lesson given in a computer room. In a
degree, they may be generalized to basic computer
literacy instruction as well as instruction of such
software as photo editing or video editing. Also,
with the evolving technology, ICT instruction can
be given in various places. Outcomes of this research can be helpful for ICT instructions given in
different places.
