A systematic review of research on how students and teachers use didactic learning materials in L1

This article presents the results of a systematic review of
research of how students and teachers in primary and lower
secondary school use didactic learning materials in L1 (mother
tongue education). Didactic learning materials are learning
resources made for the purposes of teaching and learning.
We include both digital and analogue learning resources and
methodically diverse research published in 2008-2018. The
aims of the review are mapping 1) how much research there is
in this field, 2) which aspects of use are investigated, 3) what the
research can tell us about the use of didactic learning materials,
and 4) how the research was conducted methodically. We
synthesize the included studies into six themes that describe
strands of research interests. Finally, we will propose a research
agenda for moving the field of research in the use of didactic
learning materials forward
