Açık ve Uzaktan Yabancı Dıl Öğretımı: Bır İçerık Analızı Çalışması (2013-2022) Bir Devam Çalışması

This research presents the results of a content analysis of papers published between 2013 and 2022 in four different journals. To reach conclusions, a content analysis method was employed, which is a qualitative research technique, with the purpose of identifying the subjects of the articles, their samplings, and methodological aspects, as well as analyzing their outcomes and showcasing their trends. Keywords such as English Language Teaching, Distance English Language Teaching, and Distance Foreign Language Teaching were used throughout the research process. The 34 articles obtained were analyzed in detail, and a coding procedure was assigned. In the following step, three factors–study titles, sampling, and research diversity– were used for the analysis of the chosen papers. In the articles published between 2013 and 2022, the most frequently used titles were teaching methodology and technology, as the results showed. For the next variable, sampling diversity, teachers, undergraduate students, and course participants participated utterly in the studies. As for the last variable, which is the research method, the researchers used many more quantitative techniques than qualitative ones. This study is expected to be useful for highlighting potential future studies. It will be simpler to create a framework for studies conducted in this area when content analysis with various variables and journals is conducted.
