Abstract:

In this study, the aim was to determine the effects of pre-school 4th grade teacher candidates who have been studying in blended education supported by Edmodo on the project evaluation success scores and their opinions about the use of Edmodo in education. The research is based on a semi-experimental model, designed according to two groups of experimental and control models.
In the experiment group, lessons were given face to face in both online and classroom environment supported by Edmodo. The control group was only face-to-face in the classroom environment. Both groups consisted of 53 participants who were 4th grade teacher candidates from Near East University Preschool Teaching Department. Systematic sampling selection method was applied when students were assigned to groups. Students with an odd number, as the last digit of their school number, made up the control group while the students with an even number, at the end of their school number, created the experimental group. As a result of the findings obtained from this research, both groups were found to be statistically significant in favor of the experimental group supported by Edmodo between the project evaluation success scores at the end of the study, and also the results of the experiment group students' opinions on the use of Edmodo in education were found to be positive.
