Özet
There is growing interest in the impact of gender differences, which emphasizes the study of gender and new technologies in education as an important research subject. While examining gender-related studies, the effects of the gender variable are inconclusive on student outcomes in educational activities (Sanders, 2005; Trauth et al., 2010; Yukselturk & Bulut, 2009). It is known that males and females are generally educated in the same schools with the same educational methods, strategies or tools, and they are not naturally divided into two categories in today's world. Even though there is no legal segregation between genders in most countries, historically and traditionally, males and females are attributed different stereotypes in most nations (Huyer, 2003; Tømte, 2008). For example, it is believed that management, science and engineering duties are considered to be men's responsibilities, while baby care, teaching and office work are seen as women's responsibilities (Huyer, 2003; Trauth et al., 2010).
