Abstract

Bu araştırma kentsel alanlarda çocukların okula ulaşımı konusuna odaklanmaktadır. Çalışmada ele alınan konulardan birincisi, bu konuda bir araştırma kurgusu oluşturulurken araştırma soruları, amaçlar, kullanılan yöntemler, araştırmanın kimlerle ve nasıl yürütülebileceği yönündeki değerlendirmeleri; ikincisi, kentsel alanlarda çocukların ev ve okul arası aktif seyahatlerini desteklemek için yapılan uygulamalar ve geliştirilebilecek yeni uygulama modellerine yönelik değerlendirmeleri içermektedir. Bu kapsamda 2000-2019 yılları arasında, okula yürüyerek ya da bisikletle ulaşım konularını farklı açılardan ele alan 27 araştırma değerlendirilmiştir. İncelenen çalışmalar; makalelerin genel içerikleri, yöntemleri ve prosedürleri; araştırma soruları ve sonuçları olmak üzere 3 ana başlıkta ele alınmıştır. İncelenen araştırmaların sonuçlarına göre 7 araştırma sorusu oluşturulmuş ve bu soruların cevapları üzerinden konu ile ilgili somut çıktılar ortaya konmuştur. Sonuçta, çocukların okula aktif seyahatleri konusunda güvenlik, ulaşım, eğitim, planlama, tasarım, uygulama boyutlarında yapılması gerekenler tartışılmıştır.

Children's Travel To School in Urban Areas: A Systematic Review of Different Application Models

Abstract

This research focuses on children's transportation to school in urban areas. The first of the issues addressed in the study is the evaluation of research questions, objectives, methods used, with whom and how the research can be conducted while creating a research outline for this subject; the second includes evaluations were conducted on practices and new application models developed to support active travel between home and school for children in urban areas. In this context, this review evaluated 27 studies published between 2000 and 2019 covering the issues of walking or cycling to school from different aspects. The studies examined were handled under three main headings: the general content of the articles, their methods and procedures, and as research questions and results. According to the findings of the studies examined, seven research questions were created and concrete outputs related to the subject were presented through the answers of these questions. As a result, regarding active travel of children to school, measures to be taken in terms of safety, transportation, education, planning, design, and implementation were discussed.
