Integration of the ARCS model into open and distance learning design: A systematic literature review

Öz

The present investigation aims to identify contemporary trends in the integration of the ARCS Motivation model into open and distance learning design.The research was methodologically designed as a systematic literature review based on the PRISMA model.Within the scope of the aforementioned systematic literature review, a total of 50 studies published between 2019 and 2023 were analysed.Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, Scopus and Dergipark databases were used for literature review. The publication year, purpose, research model, sample size, variables, data collection tools, data analysis methods, findings and recommendations of the reviewed studies were evaluated.The findings showed that most studies on the integration of the ARCS Motivation model with open and distance learning environments were conducted in 2022 and 2023.It was determined that quantitative research methods were mostly used in the studies. The common aim of these studies was identified as being to increase learning motivation and to evaluate the effects on learning design, and the findings were generally positive in terms of motivation.Based on the results of this research, it is recommended that qualitative research methods should be used more in scientific studies on the use of the ARCS Motivation Model in open and distance learning due to the nature of the variable, and that Turkish publications should be prioritised.

ARCS Modelinin açık ve uzaktan öğrenme tasarımına entegrasyonu: Sistematik alanyazın taraması

Öz

Bu araştırmada, ARCS Motivasyon modelinin açık ve uzaktan öğrenme tasarımına entegrasyonunda güncel eğilimlerin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma, PRISMA modeline dayalı bir sistematik alanyazın taraması olarak desenlenmiştir. Sistematik alanyazın taraması kapsamında, 2019-2023 yılları arasında yayımlanan toplam 50 çalışma incelenmiştir. Kaynak tarama içi Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, Scopus ve Dergipark veri tabanlarından yararlanılmıştır. İncelenen çalışmaların yayın yılı, amacı, araştırma modeli, örneklem büyüklüğü, değişkenleri, veri toplama araçları, veri analiz yöntemleri, bulguları ve önerileri değerlendirilmiştir. Ulaşılan bulgular, ARCS Motivasyon modelinin açık ve uzaktan öğrenme ortamları ile entegrasyonu ile ilgili en fazla 2022 ve 2023 yıllarında çalışma yapıldığını göstermiştir. Çalışmalarda daha çok nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden yararlanıldığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, çalışmaların ortak amacının, öğrenme motivasyonunu artırmak ve öğrenme tasarımı üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmek olduğu, bulgularında ise genel olarak motivasyon açısından olumlu sonuçlara varıldığı görülmektedir. Bu araştırma sonuçlarına dayanarak, ARCS Motivasyon modelinin açık ve uzaktan öğrenmede kullanımına ilişkin bilimsel araştırmalarda, değişkenin doğası gereği nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden daha fazla yararlanılması ve Türkçe yayınlara öncelik verilmesi önerilmektedir.
