The Effect of 5W1H Tecnology Model on Some Variables Related to Reading Skills in Primary School

Abstract

The main purpose of this research is to examine the effect of the technology integration model-based application example on some reading variables of primary school 1st grade students. For this purpose, the research was designed in a single-group post-test weak experimental design and a single-group pre-test-post-test weak experimental design. The study group of the research consists of 30 freshmen studying in a branch of a primary school at the middle socioeconomic level determined by criterion sampling method. Dependent t-test and descriptive statistics analysis were used in the analysis of the research data. The application example based on the technology integration model has been effective on the development of phonological awareness skills of primary school 1st grade students, their transition time to reading, and their reading speed and levels from paper and screen. It has been determined that primary school 1st grade students made fewer reading errors in reading from the screen than reading from the paper, and the students' reading levels from the screen were better. It has been determined that students' attitudes towards reading are quite high.
