Some students' answers given to question 7 are as follows: “By providing me an opportunity to sort
the content according to my pre-knowledge, I completed my own studies and this allowed me to
recognize myself in the planning.”, “To present my study plans saved me from the chaos of
complexity.”, “The most important point was time I saved.”, “It helped me to see how much time I
spend to which content, how much I studied each content and whether I passed the time that I
specified for each content.”, “For me, the most useful point was re-editing, because I had trouble time
to spend the time given to chosen contents. Although I understand that content, I repeated two or
three times.”
8. Briefly explain the missing points that you see in MMT.
Although some of the students pointed that MMT does not contain any deficiency, the data was
obtained about some technical problems such as visuality and need of development of
personalization points. When analyzing the answers given by the students, some of the important
points are shown in Table 8.
Sample students' answers given to question 8 are as follows: “I think MMT is enough for students;
however, I believe it should contain more information for students.”, “In the course planning section,
sample times might be specified.”, “Parts of the subject content studied might be presented visually.
In other words, visuals might be added.”
