Investigation of the Studies on the Use of Scratch Software in Education
Öz: The aim of this study is to classify the methodological tendencies and outputs of the studies conducted on the use of Scratch software in education with their main lines and to examine them in a comprehensive and holistic way. A literature review was conducted based on different databases in line with the purpose of the study and we accessed 76 different studies within this scope. Document review steps were followed to explain the data obtained in the study and to access the necessary concepts and relations. Meta-thematic analyses were performed to complement the data obtained, and qualitative findings were obtained by referring to commoncodes and themes of qualitative studies. The results of the study indicate that the use of Scratch software in education was found to have positive effects on motivation, self-efficacy, attitude, higher-level thinking, and academic success. In addition, materializing software teaching by freeing it from its abstract and complex structure, enabling students to acquire 21st-century skills at an early age, encouraging students to trust themselves by boosting their interest and motivationcan be defined as some of the positive aspects of the Scratch software. The limitations of the Scratch software were determined as being unsuitable for advanced coding, limited code structure, and difficulty in understanding the logic of some basic structures.
Anahtar Kelime: Eğitimde Scratch Yazılımının Kullanımına Yönelik Yapılan Çalışmaların İncelenmesi
Öz: Bu çalışmanın amacı, eğitimde Scratch yazılımının kullanılmasına yönelik yapılan çalışmaların yöntemsel eğilimleri ve çıktılarını ana hatlarıyla sınıflandırarak kapsamlı ve bütüncül bir şekilde incelenmesidir. Araştırmanın amacına uygun olarak farklı veri tabanları üzerinden alanyazın taraması yapılmış ve bu kapsamda 76 farklı çalışmaya ulaşılmıştır. Çalışmada elde edilen verileri açıklayabilmek, gerekli kavram ve ilişkilere ulaşabilmek amacıyla doküman incelemesi adımları izlenmiştir. Elde edilen verileri tamamlamak amaçlı meta-tematik analizler yapılmış ve nitel yönlü çalışmaların ortak kod ve temalarından alıntılar yapılarak nitel bulgulara ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçları eğitimde Scratch yazılımı kullanımının motivasyon, öz-yeterlik, tutum, üst düzey düşünme ve akademik başarıya olumlu etkileri olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca Scratch yazılımının programlama öğretimini soyut ve karmaşık yapıdan çıkararak somutlaştırması, 21. yy becerilerini erken yaşlarda kazandırması, öğrencilerin ilgi ve motivasyonlarını yükselterek kendilerine güvenmelerini sağlaması bazı olumlu yönleri olarak ifade edilebilir. İleri derece kodlama yapanlar için uygun olmaması, kod yapısının sınırlı olması ve bazı temel yapıların mantığının anlaşılamaması Scratch yazılımının sınırlılığı olarak tespit edilmiştir.
