Abstract:

 Objective: This study aimed to examine the attitudes of health sciences students towards mobile learning. Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out in the departments of Nursing, Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation, Pharmacy, and Medicine in the Faculty of Health Sciences of a university located in the western Black Sea region of Turkey between December 2020 and May 2021. The study data were collected with the Student Information Form consisting of 10 questions and the Mobile Learning Attitude Scale. The online survey method was used to manage the research data, and the answering time of the survey was 7-8 minutes on average. Results: The study determined that the students had a moderate average score for their attitudes towards mobile learning. The highest average 3.110.45 score in its sub-dimensions was in usability in mobile learning. Conclusion: It has been determined that the health science students attitudes towards mobile learning are moderate. It was observed that the m-learning attitudes of the students who found the effectiveness of online education at a low level in theoretical and clinicalpractical courses were also at a low level.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmada, sağlık bilimleri öğrencilerinin mobil öğrenmeye yönelik tutumlarının incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipte olan bu araştırma, Türkiyenin Batı Karadeniz bölgesinde yer alan bir üniversitenin Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesinin Hemşirelik, Fizik Tedavi ve Rehabilitasyon bölümleri, Eczacılık ve Tıp fakültelerinde 01 Aralık 2020  01 Mayıs 2021 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma verileri 10 sorudan oluşan Öğrenci Bilgi Formu ve Mobil Öğrenme Tutum Ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Araştırma verilerinin toplanmasında google formlar aracılığıyla online anket yöntemi kullanılmış olup, anketin cevaplanma süresi ortalama 7-8 dakikadır. Bulgular: Çalışmada, öğrencilerin mobil öğrenmeye yönelik tutumları için orta düzeyde 3.110.45 puan ortalamasına sahip olduğu saptandı. Alt boyutlarında en yüksek ortalama puan, mobil öğrenmede kullanılabilirlik alanındaydı. Sonuç: Sağlık bilimleri öğrencilerinin mobil öğrenmeye yönelik tutumları orta düzeyde olduğu saptanmıştır. Teorik ve klinikpratik derslerde çevrimiçi eğitimin etkinliğini düşük düzeyde bulan öğrencilerin m-öğrenme tutumlarının da düşük düzeyde olduğu görülmüştür.
