Abstract

Açık ve uzaktan öğrenmenin hızla yaygınlaşması, etkileşim türlerinin ve bunların öğrenme çıktıları üzerindeki etkilerinin daha iyi anlaşılmasını gerektirmiştir. Bu çalışma Scopus veri tabanında 1988-2024 yılları arasında açık ve uzaktan öğrenmede etkileşim üzerine gerçekleştirilen makalelerin bibliyometrik analizini yapmayı hedeflemektedir. Araştırmanın amacını yerine getirebilmek için 1988-2024 yılları arasında yayınlanmış 602 makaleye ulaşılmıştır. Scopus veri tabanında bulunan 602 bilimsel makalenin bibliyometrik verileri VOSviewer 1.6.20 programı aracılığıyla analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler Scopus, VOSviewer ve Microsoft Office Excel programları aracılığıyla görselleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın bulgularına göre, 602 çalışma 75 farklı ülkeden araştırmacılar tarafından gerçekleştirilmiştir. Açık ve uzaktan öğrenmede etkileşim çalışmalarında öncü kurum Malezya Teknoloji Üniversitesi’dir. Computers and Education Dergisi 22 yayın ve 1453 atıfla ilk sırada yer almaktadır. Araştırmalarda yer alan anahtar sözcükler incelendiğinde covid-19, işbirlikli öğrenme, sosyal bulunurluk, memnuniyet, öğrenme toplulukları, öğrenme analitikleri ve öz-denetimli öğrenme kavramları ön plana çıkmaktadır.

A bibliometric analysis study on interaction in open and distance learning

Abstract

The accelerating diffusion of open and distance learning has encouraged a better understanding of the types of interactions and their effects on learning outcomes. This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the articles on interaction in open and distance learning between 1988 and 2024 in the Scopus database. In order to fulfill the aim of the study, 602 articles published between 1988 and 2024 were accessed. The bibliometric data of 602 scientific articles in the Scopus database were analyzed through the VOSviewer 1.6.20 program. The data obtained were visualized through Scopus, VOSviewer and Microsoft Office Excel programs. According to the findings of the study, 602 studies were accomplished by researchers from 75 different countries. The pioneering institution in interaction studies in open and distance learning is the Malaysian University of Technology. The Journal of Computers and Education is ranked first with 22 publications and 1453 citations. When the keywords in the articles are analyzed, the concepts of covid-19, collaborative learning, social presence, satisfaction, learning communities, learning analytics and self-regulated learning have come to the forefront.
