ÖNDE GELEN ÜÇ DERGİ ÖZELİNDE DİL ÖĞRETİMİNDE TEKNOLOJİ KULLANIMI ÜZERİNE BİR İNCELEME

Bu çalışma, son 10 yılda (2010-2019) üç adet bilgisayar destekli dil öğretimi odaklı amiral gemi dergisinde (Language Learning & Technology, CALL ve ReCALL) yayınlanan teknolojiyle dil öğrenimi araştırmaları üzerinde yapılan çalışmaları incelemektedir. Bu dergiler Sosyal Bilimler Atıf İndeksinde (SSCI) indekslenmektedir ve yalnızca teknolojinin dil öğreniminde kullanımı ile ilgili makaleler yayınlamaktadır. Makale seçimi için belirlenen ölçüt, çalışmaların bir dil alanında (örneğin ana dil becerileri, dilbilgisi, kelime bilgisi, kaygı ve özerklik) belirli bir teknolojik araç kullanmanın yararları üzerine deneysel kanıtlar sunması gerektiğidir. Yayınların eğilimlerini, metodolojilerini, teorilerini, araştırma odağını, kullanılan teknolojiyi ve dil öğrenme faydalarını izlemek için toplam 286 çalışma tespit edilmiş ve içerik analizi tekniği kullanılmıştır. Bulgular, yaygın olarak kullanılan teknolojilerin derlem (veriye dayalı öğrenme), bilgisayar aracılı iletişim, sanal dünyalar, blog oluşturma, wiki'ler, tele-iş birliği ve altyazı olduğunu göstermiştir. Teknolojiden en çok yararlanan dil alanları; yazma, kelime bilgisi, konuşma, okuma, özerklik, telaffuz, dinleme, dilbilgisi, pragmatik, kaygı, hata düzeltme ve motivasyondur. Çalışmalarda teknolojiyi, dille ilgili yardım ve teşvik sağlayarak dil öğrenimini desteklemek için kullanıldığı bulunmuştur. Sonuçlar, teknolojiyi dil öğrenimine entegre etmenin bazı sonuçları doğrultusunda tartışılmaktadır.

AN ANALYSIS OF USING TECHNOLOGY IN LANGUAGE LEARNING IN THREE FLAGSHIP JOURNALS

This study probes into the researchstudies on language learning with technologypublished in three CALL-focused flagship journals(Language Learning & Technology, CALL, andReCALL) in the last 10 years (2010-2019). Thesejournals are indexed in the Social Science CitationIndex (SSCI) and they solely publish articles on theuse of technology in language learning. Theestablished criterion for article selection is that thestudies should provide empirical evidence on thebenefits of using a specific technological tool on alanguage area (e.g. main language skills, grammar,vocabulary, anxiety, and autonomy). A total of 286studies were identified and the content analysistechnique was used to track the publications‟ trends,methodologies, theories, research focus, thetechnology used, and language learning benefits.The findings showed that the commonly usedtechnologies were corpus (data-driven learning),computer-mediated communication (CMC), virtualworlds, blogging, wikis, telecollaboration, andcaptioning. The language areas that mostlybenefited from technology were writing,vocabulary, speaking, reading, autonomy,pronunciation, listening, grammar, pragmatics,anxiety, error correction, and motivation. Thestudies utilized technology mainly to supportlanguage learning by providing language-relatedassistance and encouragement. The results arediscussed in line with some implications forintegrating technology into language learning.
