1,6 milyon Suriyeli mülteci çocuk, Suriye'deki savaş nedeniyle Türkiye'de yaşıyor. Suriyeli çocuklar Türk okullarında Türkçe eğitim görüyor, ancak birçok Suriyeli aile birçok nedenden dolayı Suriye'ye geri dönüyor. Bu durum Arapça okuma bilmeyen çocukların okulu bırakmalarına neden olabiliyor. halbuki Suriye'nin resmi dili Arapçadır.
Araştırmanın amacı, Türkiye'de yerinden edilmiş Suriyeli çocuklara Arapça okumayı öğretmek için çevrimiçi bir programın etkisini incelemektir.
Yedi öğrenciden oluşan bir grup seçildi. Şartlar şu şekilde: 8-10 yaşında olmak, ana dili Arapça olmak, Gaziantep veya Kilis'te ikamet etmek, Arapça okuma bilmemek, Suriye uyruklu olmak.
Okuma testi, kurs başlamadan önce ve kurs bittikten sonra uygulanmıştır. Sonuçlar, çevrimiçi kursun çocuklara okuma öğretiminde önemli bir etkisi olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca velilerin kurstan memnuniyetlerinin de olumlu olduğunu göstermektedir.
