Effect of Using Hyflex Technology Learning on Preservice Teachers' Success and Attitudes

HyFlex technology-based learning refers to learning that integrates face-to-face (synchronous) and online (asynchronous) learning experiences. In this study, the effects of 'Hyflex Technology-Based Learning' applications on pre-service teachers' achievement, professional attitudes and retention of what is learned compared to traditional teaching were examined. In the study, one of the true experimental design types, pre-test-post-test control group randomized design was used. The application group of the study consisted of a total of 64 pre-service teachers studying in 2 3rd grade classes at the faculty of education of a university in Almaty in the 2022 academic year. In the study, Hyflex technology-based learning in the experimental group and traditional teaching approach in the control group were applied as experimental procedures. The applications in both groups were carried out in 6 sessions and 12 hours in total. Formation course achievement test (Teaching Principles and Methods Course) and attitude towards teaching profession scale were used to collect research data. According to the findings of the study, Hyflex technology-based learning approach was found to be significantly effective in pre-service teachers' professional academic achievement and attitudes compared to traditional teaching.
