Abstract:

In this study, the effect of museum education practices implemented with virtual teaching environments on the views of prospective teachers was analysed. The research was carried out with a case study design, which is one of the qualitative methods. The views of the prospective teachers about the museum education practices implemented with virtual teaching environments were examined with content analysis. 25 prospective teachers participated to the study. In the research, first of all, virtual museum environments in the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations were made interactive by using the edpuzzle application, and sound recordings and quiz questions related to museum activities were added to the videos. In addition, instructional materials related to museum hunting activities that the candidates used through virtual museum applications were designed. The experimental study with museum educational activities designed ith virtual teaching environments was implemented for four weeks. The results showed that these activities about the practices positively influenced the views of prospective teachers and that these practices were highly effective in teaching social studies course. In addition to this, it was determined that teacher candidates believed that an active teaching process could be created with virtual museum applications and that the learning about social studies course could be more easily embodied.
