Context 1
... such as 'retention', 'attention-grabbing', 'motivation', and 'enjoyment' are categorized under the theme of 'App's usability in education,' while codes such as 'ease of use/understandable,' 'diverse question types of content,' 'information content,' and 'innovative' are grouped under the theme of 'App's technical usability. The statements highlighting the opinions of prospective biology teachers regarding the short excursion they conducted on campus with Actionbound are as follows: The distribution of prospective biology teachers' desire to conduct mobile device-supported lessons when they become teachers in the future is presented in Table 6. ...Context 2
... participants (25 persons, 83.3%) stated that they would be able to present a biology topic with mobile device support when they become teachers in the future, while some (4 persons, 13.3%) remained undecided, and only 1 person (3.3%) indicated that they would not teach a biology topic supported by mobile devices (See Table 6). ...Context 3
... examining the views of prospective biology teachers on whether they will use mobile device-supported teaching for a biology topic when they become teachers (Table 6), it is evident that they predominantly hold positive thoughts about using mobile devices (83.3%). However, 13.3% of prospective biology teachers indicated being undecided on this matter. ...Context 4
... and Coşkun (2021) stated that the use of technology in education, interest in coding and robotics applications, the digitalization of printed books or forms through web 2.0, and even communication through various mobile applications necessitate digital leadership in this direction. The desire of prospective teachers to design a biology lesson supported by mobile devices in the future (Table 6) aligns with the rapidly progressing digitization process in education and the desire, as stated by Menzi et al. (2012), to integrate mobile learning into instructional environments. ...
