Development of an Online Learning Lesson in the Educational Technology Equipment Operation Course for Pre-Service Teachers

The objectives of this study are (1) to explore pre-service teachers' needs in using educational technology tools for online learning, (2) to develop an online lesson about the use of educational technology tools for preservice teachers, and (3) to compare the learning achievements before and after taking the lesson. This project comprised research and development, with the methodology divided into three phases. The first phase was a needs assessment, the second phase was a development of an online lesson about the use of educational tools, and the third phase was a comparison of the learning achievements before and after completing the lesson. The results were as follows: ( 1)In respect of the needs analysis concerning the use of educational technology tools in online learning, the pre-service teachers considered that tools for completing learning tasks were the most crucial element. The data collected from openended questions revealed that the most critical problems experienced in online learning were learning tools and poor Internet speed. (2) The results from the suitability test showed that the developed online lesson was suitable overall. The pre-service teachers' average post-test score for the achievement test on the use of educational technology tools was higher than the average pre-test score, with a statistically significant difference at a level of.05. © 2023,International Journal of Interactive Mobile Technologies.
