Teacher Attitudes toward Online Education Following an Online Inservice Program
Uzunboylu, Huseyin
International Journal on E-Learning, v6 n2 p267-277 Apr 2007
This study sought to determine attitudes toward online education of English language teachers employed in state secondary schools in North Cyprus following an inservice program on distance education. Seventy-four teachers (male = 37, female = 37) attended a 6-hour inservice training program organized by the Ministry of Education and Culture. Data were collected from the Attitudes towards Online Learning Scale. Following the program, significant differences in attitude toward online education were found based upon teaching experience, school location, and use of e-mail. The use of computers and internet technologies has not yet been used extensively in North Cyprus. Improved teacher attitudes will likely improve to the extent that teachers in this county become more familiar with web-based technologies. (Contains 4 tables.)
