Impact of Blended Learning Environments Based on Algo-Heuristic Theory on Some Variables

In this study, the effects of Algo–Heuristic Theory based blended learning
environments on students’ computer skills in their preparation of
presentations, levels of attitudes towards computers, and levels of
motivation regarding the information technology course were investigated.
The research sample was composed of 71 students. A semi–empirical
design with a pre-test–post-test, and control group was used. Research data
was collected using an Academic Achievement Test, the Computer Attitude
Scale for Primary School Students and the Motivation Scale for the
Information Technology Course. A one way ANOVA was conducted on all
the data collected and the results revealed that the achievements and
motivation levels of the students who studied in an Algo–Heuristic Theory
based blended learning environment in the information technology course
increased significantly.
