research in Turkey during 2015 and global patterns of TESOL research. In the process of analysing the
local patterns of TESOL in comparison to the global trends, 81 MA theses completed and uploaded on
the system the Turkish Higher Education Thesis Center website uploaded during the year of 2015 were
analysed. As a research methodology, qualitative method was applied to determine the findings of the
research. In our qualitative analysis, starting with the prior categories, several existing TESOL trends
were found along with the emerging trends in TESOL. The content analysis was performed on the
qualitative data. The percentages of occurrence of each theme found in every category were calculated.
Besides, content analysis was performed on these theses. It is found that alongside existing types such
as teaching methodology, learner, subject matter, some emerging trends; other common research topics,
such as teacher development and assessment and evaluation, native or non-native speaker
teacher(s)…etc. emerged. Some significant pedagogical implications were discussed, and suggestions
were provided for future studies.
