A comparison with computer and instructional technology education program competencies
Main Article Content
Abstract
The countries involved in the Bologna Process constitute the National Qualifications Framework for higher education in their own countries. National Qualifications Framework is a system in which the nationally and internationally recognised and associated competencies are structured in a specific order. In Turkey, ‘National Qualifications Framework for Higher Education in Turkey’ is constituted for increased transparency, recognition and mobility in higher education. The aim of this study is to research, regulate and improve the computer and instruction technologies education program competencies constituted within the National Qualifications Framework for Higher Education in Turkey in seven universities. The seven universities selected for the purpose of this study are selected to represent each region of Turkey. Regarding the competencies of the selected universities, it is seen that there is a general confusion about the writing of competencies and the writing of goals. Another mistake regarding the competencies is the false classification of competencies. In addition, there is no common attitude related to the writing of competencies. Therefore, in this study, a draft backbone regarding the writing of competencies in computer and instruction technologies education is tried to be created.
Keywords: Bologna Process, Bologna information system, Turkish higher education competencies framework, computer and instruction technologies program competencies.
