Abstract (English):	Universal Design for Learning (UDL) considers the learning needs of all people based on people's learning needs and styles. In this context, it is an alternative teaching model created to ensure that as many people as possible learn. According to UDL, the reason for the obstacles that learners encounter in the learning process is not the lack of learning capacity. These obstacles arise because of learners interacting with teaching programs and materials that do not provide flexibility according to their various skills and needs. This study aims to examine theses completed between 2010-2024 on the Universal Design for Learning approach in Türkiye. In this context, a search was conducted with two keywords, namely Universal Design for Learning and Universal Design in the database of Council of Higher Education (CoHE) of Türkiye. Attention was paid to the fact that the theses were conducted in the field of education. As a result of the search, the current research group consists of eight theses about UDL. Since the theses were selected for a specific purpose, the purposeful sampling method was used in the study. According to the research findings, five at the master's level and three at the doctoral level, have been published in the last 14 years. Three of them are quantitative, two are qualitative and three are mixed method used studies. It is seen that all the theses are cross-sectional. In the theses examined within the scope of the study, scales, forms, tests, interview forms, open-ended questions, Likert-type surveys, scales, focus group interviews, reflection papers, and diaries were used as data collection tools. In line with the study, it is possible to say that the number of theses in the field of Universal Design for Learning in Türkiye is quite limited. Educational environments in Türkiye have a heterogeneous structure due to the increase in the number of immigrants, the encouragement of the participation of individuals with special needs and individual diversity in learning. Therefore, it is thought that conducting more research in the field of UDL will contribute to the literature and education and training activities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Turkish):	Öğrenmede Evrensel Tasarım (ÖET) bilimsel olarak insanların öğrenme şekillerini temel alarak bütün insanların öğrenme için gerek duydukları ihtiyaçları göz önünde bulundurmaktadır. Bu doğrultuda mümkün olduğunca çok insanın öğrenmesini sağlamak amacıyla oluşturulan alternatif bir öğretim modelidir. Uzmanlara göre öğrenenlerin öğrenme sürecinde karşılaştıkları engellerin sebebi öğrenen kapasitesinin azlığı değildir. Bu engeller, öğrenenlerin çeşitli beceri ve ihtiyaçlarına göre esneklik sağlamayan öğretim programları ve materyalleri ile etkileşime girmeleri sonucunda ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışma ile Türkiye’deki Öğrenmede Evrensel Tasarım yaklaşımı ile ilgili 2010-2024 yılları arasında tamamlanmış olan tezlerin incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu doğrultuda YÖK Ulusal Tez Öğrenmede Evrensel Tasarım ve Evrensel Tasarım olmak üzere iki anahtar kelime ile tarama yapılmıştır. Yapılan tarama sonucunda güncel araştırmanın çalışma grubunu ÖET konulu sekiz tez oluşturmaktadır. Tezlerin eğitim alanında yapılmasına dikkat edilmiştir. Belirli bir amaç doğrultusunda seçilen tezler incelendiği için çalışmada amaçlı örnekleme yönteminden yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre son 14 yılda yüksek lisans düzeyinde beş ve doktora düzeyinde üç olmak üzere toplam sekiz tez yayınlanmıştır. Bunların üçü nicel, ikisi nitel üçü karmadır. Tezlerin tamamının kesitsel olduğu görülmektedir. Çalışma kapsamında incelenen tezlerde veri toplama aracı olarak ölçek, form, test, yazılı görüşme formu, açık uçlu sorular, likert tipi anket soruları, ölçek, odak grup görüşmesi, yansıtma yazıları, günlükler kullanılmıştır. Yapılan çalışma doğrultusunda şunu söylemek mümkün ki Türkiye’de Öğrenmede Evrensel Tasarım alanında yapılan tez çalışması sayısı oldukça kısıtlıdır. Türkiye’deki eğitim ortamları göçmen sayısındaki artış, özel gereksinimli bireylerin eğitim öğretim faaliyetlerine katılımının teşvik edilmesi ve öğrenmedeki bireysel çeşitliliklerden kaynaklı olarak heterojen bir yapıya sahiptir. Dolayısıyla ÖET alanında daha fazla araştırmanın yapılmasının literatüre ve eğitim öğretim faaliyetlerine katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
