Abstract

Among the tools used in teaching and learning, computers are very im-portant. Determining what kind of computer-related studies are carried out in the learning and teaching processes for university students will contribute to future research. In this context, the aim of the study is to examine university students’ documents related to computers in teaching and learning, scanned in the Web of Science database, thematically and methodologically. The study was designed by adopting the case study method from the qualitative research models. A sample was not determined for the articles to be included in the study but it was aimed to reach the whole population. In this context, all documents in the Web of Science database have been accessed through the library system of the university. In the document search, the keywords ‘learning and teaching’ and ‘computer’ were searched in all areas, and the studies were found by searching the keyword ‘university student’ within the title. All the studies were analysed by year, document type, Web of Science category, country and language of publication. The findings obtained from the research are explained in detail by content analysis method. A total of 305 documents were reached in the research findings. The findings obtained as a result of the research carried out are given in detail in the findings and results section.

Highlights

  • Science tries to understand and change the world in which human beings are in the process of establishing a new world

  • 305 studies were reached by browsing the Web of Science database to find studies on ‘learning and teaching’, ‘computer’ and ‘university students’

  • When the findings of the studies on university students in the period of computer learning and teaching were examined, it was determined that the studies were mostly carried out in 2018 and 2017

Summary

Introduction

Science tries to understand and change the world in which human beings are in the process of establishing a new world. Man’s effort to understand and change the world has accelerated scientific development, and improved the technology he uses. Humanity has developed and used existing technology to make life easier and increase the production of products necessary for its life, and researched what it should or should not do to reduce or eliminate undesirable consequences of technology when it occurs. Technology is a component of production relationships as well as social and political relationships. For this reason, technology is a result of this change as well as a cause of social change [9] [32].
