The aim of
this study is to find out the development and current status of educational
researches on visuals in Turkey. The data was collected in two different ways.
The first way is to search of MA and PhD theses about visuals in education in
Turkey. In the second way, Educational
journals which are involved in ULAKBIM (Database of The Turkish Academic
Network and Information Centre) are scanned. For the study, 247 graduated
theses, and 157 articles published between 2002 and 2011 were selected to be
analyzed according to their research area, methodology, universe, and sample.
The number of researches on visuals has dramatically increased from 2002 to
2011. At the same time, studies on visuals have taken place most frequently in
science education. Most of the theses and articles are experimental studies.
Finally, it has been found out that maps, computer assisted materials, and web
designed shapes have been investigated in graduate theses and articles.
