Evaluation A Course Computer And Its Effect On Self-Efficacy And Attitudes Toward Information Technology And Communications For Physical Education Students

Quantitative methodology research was conducted as a pilot study in the form of a semi-experimental pre-test-post-test three-group An accessible sample of 69 individuals was identified and randomly replaced in three groups of 23 (experimental-novice-traditional-control trial).

The course included a theoretical part for 2 sessions and 13 weeks of practical session (2 hours). Resource-made questionnaires (information technology experience) and standard (computer and internet self-efficacy, attitudes toward computers and the Internet, computer anxiety) were used in pretest, posttest and feedback questionnaire in post-test. Analysis of covariance was not restored because presuppositions, the dependent variables were calculated by subtracting the pre-test and post-test to compare each of the dependent variables among the three groups varied between groups, ANOVA test and post hoc test was used.

Results showed that attitudes towards computer(sig: 0/001) and internet(sig: 0/001), internet(Sig = 0.041) and computer self-efficacy(Sig = 0.023) and computer anxiety(sig: 0/001) in the control group and the experimental and control groups. Tukey test showed that the difference in attitude toward computers and the Internet, Internet self-efficacy and computer anxiety caused by the difference in the modern with the traditional three groups and the control group. But this difference in computer self-efficacy variable was significant only with the traditional group.

Finally, we can say that students fully aware of the development of ICT in their professions physical education. Therefore, the conviction among physical education students in the ICT knowledge and skills are useful and necessary.
