Abstract :
By completing four assignments using three kinds of software and evaluating presentation, we conducted a teaching method of the Information Studies which is one of teaching-training course subjects. We surveyed the learners´ recognition rate of the terms related to the lessons and awareness related to abilities at both the beginning and the end. Then we tested the significance of the differences between both ratings. Those results revealed that the participants´ amount of knowledge had increased significantly. The participants´ awareness related to ability was surveyed. Tests of significant difference in terms of their awareness revealed that they had improved significantly.
