Introduction

Zeynep Arkan is an associate professor at Marmara University, Atatürk Faculty of Education, Department of Foreign Languages Education, Arabic Language Education Main Division, a position held from 3 April 2026 [1]. She previously served as associate professor at Istanbul Technical University and at Ankara Hacı Bayram Veli University, and as assistant professor from 16 November 2020 [2]. Her doctoral thesis at Gazi University examined the work Te’allem el Arabiyye in terms of Arabic teaching and education techniques, supervised by Prof. Dr. Ahmet Bostancı [1].

Her master’s thesis at Sakarya University analysed the San Diego State University Foundation example in the professional development of Arabic teachers under Prof. Dr. Musa Yıldız [1]. She completed her bachelor’s degree in Arabic Language and Literature at Selçuk University in 1993 [2]. Her Scopus subject area is Language Education, with 2 documents, 8 citations, and an h-index of 1 [1].

Research Profile

The Scopus author record lists an affiliation with Marmara University and a subject area of Language Education, with 2 documents and 8 citations yielding an h-index of 1 [1]. Google Scholar reports a broader record of 55 documents, 132 citations, and an h-index of 6 [3]. ORCID records the researcher identifier 0000-0003-0534-186X [2]. These indicators are presented descriptively rather than evaluatively [3].

Supervision activity includes master’s theses completed in 2023, 2024, and 2025 at Ankara Hacı Bayram Veli University on topics such as Orientalist discourse and translation, United Nations translation practices, cultural transfer in Arabic subtitling, and idiom translation strategies [2]. She has contributed to national projects including the Arabic Teachers Professional Development Certificate Program (2019–2020) and the Social Inclusion Education Program Development Project (2020–2021) [1].

Research Contributions

Research contributions centre on Arabic language teaching, curriculum and textbook evaluation, and translation theory. A 2026 study evaluated listening activities in Arabic language teaching textbooks used in Turkey in light of CEFR criteria, published in the Asian-Pacific Journal of Second and Foreign Language Education [6]. A 2025 systematic review in BMC Psychology examined the relationship between school-age students’ literacy skills and digital well-being [5].

Further work addresses translation strategies and culture-specific items, including a study of Zekeriyyâ Tâmir’s story el-Aʿdâʾ in Turkish translation [7]. Authored books include TEOG Yerleştirme Sistemi: Güçlükler ve Öneriler (SETA, 2017), co-authored with Z. Çelik, N. Boz, and D. Toklucu [8]. Book chapters cover translation theories including Chesterman’s norm theory, Koller’s equivalence theory, Venuti’s domestication and foreignization, Toury’s target-oriented theory, Newmark’s semantic and communicative translation, Even-Zohar’s polysystem theory, and Popovič’s shift of expression model [2].

Publications

Google Scholar metrics indicate 132 citations across 55 documents with an h-index of 6, reflecting a wider citation footprint that includes book chapters and national journal articles [3]. The difference between databases reflects indexing coverage rather than differences in scholarly output [2]. Dissemination activity includes papers presented at international scientific meetings, such as the International Conference on Arabic Studies & Islamic Civilization (2020), the AELTE 2023 Conference, and the ISLARA International Islamic Researches Congress (2022) [1]. Contributions to edited volumes on translation theory further extend the reach of this work [2].
