A thematic review of using digital teaching technologies in Turkish language teaching

Abstract

When examining the current thematic analysis studies on digital teaching technologies in learning-teaching processes, three main limitations were encountered. The first of these limitations is that most of the thematic analysis studies dealt with all studies conducted in the literature, regardless of country. The second limitation of the studies conducted in the literature is that the existing thematic analysis are quite old. The last of the limitations is that the thematic analyzes of the studies on the use of digital teaching technologies in language education or teaching-based courses were mostly carried out in the field of foreign language teaching / second language teaching. This research aims to examine the literature on the use of digital teaching technologies in Turkish language teaching studies and to reveal a synthesis of this; get a general idea of the frequency of research in this field; to present the general framework of researches published in different regions, different journals and studied in different universities as thesis and to reveal how various variables (technology type, index of published journals, thesis type, etc.) affect the use of technology in Turkish language teaching studies. The research was designed in the thematic content analysis design, which is a type of content analysis. The general characteristics, reasons, aims, method information, results, and recommendations of the studies examined in this study were presented by analyzing them. The research results revealed that there is still a need for studies on using digital teaching technologies in Turkish language teaching studies. There are almost no studies, especially in some learning areas. Also, it has been concluded that digital teaching technologies are highly effective in learning areas of reading and writing. High socioeconomic levels and female students use technology better in the Turkish language course, and many positive and negative aspects of technology have been discovered for students.
