Dear Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure that we present the April 2025 issue of The Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology (TOJET). This issue brings together a rich selection of research studies that reflect the evolving dynamics of educational technologies and media across different disciplines and cultural contexts.

As digital transformation continues to reshape education globally, the articles featured in this issue emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of technology integration. Topics span from e-learning environments and mobile technology use in education to curriculum development strategies and the social impacts of digital media.

This issue includes a diverse range of studies from researchers around the world. For instance, we examine the effects of social media marketing on consumer education in the real estate sector, explore students' perceptions of e-learning in higher education, and analyze the educational implications of smartphone usage across various student demographics. We also highlight systematic reviews and meta-analytical approaches to program development and curriculum design—showing a growing trend toward evidence-based educational planning.

Several contributions in this issue also address broader themes such as digital citizenship, communication strategies for visibility in global media, and the intersection of language technologies with international social media platforms. These studies reflect both the challenges and opportunities educators and institutions face in adapting to a rapidly changing educational landscape.

We extend our sincere gratitude to all the authors, reviewers, and editorial team members who contributed to this issue. Your commitment to scholarly excellence and educational innovation continues to strengthen TOJET’s position as a leading international journal in the field.

We hope that the insights shared in this volume will inspire further research and practical applications that support transformative learning experiences and inclusive educational policies worldwide.

TOJET, in collaboration with international universities, will host the IETC 2025 Conference (www.iet-c.net) in Rabat, Morocco between July 10-11, 2025
