Abstract

: In this study, the descriptive features and research trends of distance education studies using Internet of Things (IoT) tools were examined. Within the scope of the study, 319 articles in the Web of Science (WOS) database were reviewed, and 42 of them that met the research criteria were analyzed by content analysis method. The results show that there has been an increase in the number of studies on IoT over the years. Especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an increase in the use of IoT devices in distance education. Most of the studies examined were carried out in Asian countries such as China, Taiwan, and Japan. Studies on improving the learning environment, developing remote experiment systems, monitoring student behaviors, and developing smart learning environments come to the fore. Internet of Things tools offer many opportunities that can be used in distance education learning environments. These tools can be used to improve learners’ experience, help teachers track student progress, and increase the efficiency of educational institutions. The articles highlight the advantages of using IoT technologies in education and reveal their important role in improving the learning experience.

Özet

Bu çalışmada nesnelerin interneti (IoT) araçlarının kullanıldığı uzaktan eğitim çalışmalarının betimsel özellikleri ve araştırma eğilimleri incelenmiştir. Çalışma kapsamında Web of Science (WOS) veri tabanında yer alan 319 makale ele alınmış, bunlardan araştırma kriterlerine uyan 42 tanesi içerik analizi yöntemiyle incelenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar yıllar içerisinde IoT ile ilgili çalışmaların sayısında artış olduğunu göstermektedir. Özellikle COVID-19 pandemisi sonrası IoT’nin uzaktan eğitimde kullanımında artış olmuştur. Araştırma kapsamında incelenen çalışmaların büyük kısmı Çin, Tayvan, Japonya gibi Asya ülkelerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yapılan çalışmalarda öğrenme ortamını iyileştirmek, uzaktan deney sistemleri geliştirmek, öğrenci davranışlarının takip edilmesi ve akıllı öğrenme ortamlarının geliştirilmesi ile ilgili çalışmalar öne çıkmaktadır. Nesnelerin interneti araçları, uzaktan eğitim ortamlarında kullanılabilecek birçok fırsat sunmaktadır. Bu araçlar, öğrencilerin öğrenme deneyimini iyileştirmek, öğretmenlerin öğrenci ilerlemesini takip etmelerine yardımcı olmak ve eğitim kurumlarının verimliliğini artırmak için kullanılabilir. Makaleler, IoT teknolojilerinin eğitimde kullanımının avantajlarını vurgulamakta ve öğrencilerin öğrenme deneyimini geliştirmede önemli bir rol oynadığını ortaya koymaktadır.
