The purpose of this research is to reveal the trends on research for blended-learning in our country by examining the master and doctoral theses in National Thesis Center in Council of Higher Education (CoHE) and thus to shed light on new studies to be conducted in the future. For this purpose, using keywords related to blended-learning, 27 master's thesis and 17 dissertations have been reached as a result of scanning (screening) through the National Thesis Center in CoHE. These theses were evaluated according to their types, years, research methodologies, sample sizes, sample levels, universities they were carried out in, orthographies, data collection tools, statistical methods/techniques and dependent/independent variables. The results of the research revealed that a total of 44 theses were conducted about blended-learning in the years 2005 to 2014 in our country and that majority of them were written in Turkish (n=35). In the studies, it is seen that blended learning environment was studied more as dependent variable (n=16), while academic achievement was studied more as independent variable (n=16). Moreover, it is observed that the theses generally covered bachelor's degree sample levels (n=27) and intensified between 5 and 100 (n=39) persons as a sample group. Another finding is that as a measurement tools, interview technique (n=28) academic achievement tests (n=23), which are considered to be related to level of sampling, were preferred
