Abstract
When
we look at the industrial development with the developing technology, 4
different industrial revolutions have occurred. The first of these industrial
revolutions started with the invention of the steam engine. Then, with the
development of the internet in the 1990s, artificial intelligence systems
rapidly enter our lives. With the developing artificial intelligence systems,
factories and production centers that can make autonomous production in the
field of industry have emerged. With the effect of this, a suitable environment
was prepared for industry 4.0, which is an unnamed revolution. The concept of
the Industry 4.0 revolution, which was introduced in Germany in 2011, was
rapidly accepted worldwide. In this study, evaluations were made in terms of
industry 4.0 interest and knowledge level through teachers and students in
vocational technical education. Industry 4.0 awareness survey was conducted by
259 people as an online survey in order to be able to measure Industry 4.0.
Vocational high school students, teachers working in vocational high schools
and vocational high school graduates in different fields who graduated
participated in the survey. The data set obtained as a result of the survey was
processed on SPSS 26 version and the results were evaluated. In order to
interpret the survey results, t test, anova, manova statistical analysis
techniques were applied. Apart from this, it was observed that the results
concentrated on 6 factors applied to exploratory factor analysis data set. As a
result, as expected in the study, teachers working in vocational high schools
had higher levels of industry 4.0 interest and knowledge than students. In
addition to this, the knowledge and interest level of industry knowledge has
been found higher than the students who received postgraduate education.
Industry 4.0 awareness levels are higher especially among students and teachers
studying in the field of information technologies compared to other fields.
