“…The review of the literature conducted for the present study indicates that there has been extensive research examining the effect of web-based teaching activities on learning (Akdeniz, Öztürk and Bakırcı, 2017;Güven and Sülün, 2012;Kuş, 2006;Koçoğlu and Koka, 2018;MacGregor and Lou, 2005;Tay and Yıldırım, 2013;Tezci, 2003;Türker and Yaylak, 2011;Toros and Yeşiltaş, 2015;Yeşiltaş and Turan, 2015). Some of this research focused on the effectiveness of WebQuest (Aydoğdu-Yenilmez, Özpınar and Gökçe, 2017; Doğru and Şeker, 2012;Yang, 2014), while others focused on the effectiveness of animations (Aslan-Efe, 2015;Aktaş, 2015;Genç, 2013;Karaçöp, Doymuş, Doğan and Koç, 2009;Yakışan, Yel and Mutlu, 2009). The literature review has detected no previous study that compares all three of the WebQuest, animation, and traditional teaching methods in terms of learning outcomes.…”
