Bu bildiri ile yabancı dil öğretiminde öğretmenin öğrenci motivasyonuna etkisi değerlendirilecektir. Son yıllarda teknolojinin de gelişmesiyle öğrenciler kendi kendine bir yabancı dili öğrenme imkanına sahip olmuştur. Ancak, yabancı dil öğretiminde hala öğretmenin etkisi önemli görülmektedir. Yabancı dil öğretiminde öğrencinin başarı düzeyini öğretmenin birçok açıdan etkilediği düşünülmektedir. Yabancı dil öğretiminde öğrencinin düzeyini belirleyecek, onun yaşına uygun öğretimi planlayacak, tutum ve davranışlarıyla onu motive edecek, öğrencinin öğrenim düzeyini ölçme ve değerlendirmesiyle doğru tespit edecek ve ona yabancı dil öğrenme sürecinde rehberlik edecek en önemli kişinin öğretmen olduğu kabul edilmektedir. Öğretmenin öğrenci motivasyonuna etkisi kuramsal çalışmaların ışığında değerlendirilmekle birlikte anket uygulamalarıyla da desteklenecektir. Araştırmanın konusuna ilişkin inceleme alanını Saraybosna’da Türkçe, İngilizce ve Boşnakçayı yabancı dil olarak öğrenen orta öğretim düzeyindeki öğrenciler oluşturmaktadır. Bu araştırma ile öğrenci motivasyonuna öğretmenin etkileri belirlenmesi amaçlandığından anket ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Ölçeğin kapsam geçerliliğinin saptanması amacıyla uzman görüşlerine başvurulup, güvenirlik düzeyinin belirlenmesi için ise ön uygulama yapılacaktır. Uygulanan anketlerden elde edilen veriler frekans ve yüzdelerle betimlenip, ilgili alan yazına dayanarak yorumlanacaktır.

Metin dilbilim, metinlerin yapısını, anlamını, metni oluşturan öğelerin birbirleriyle ve metinle olan ilişkilerini başka bir deyişle metnin metin olma özelliklerini gerek dilsel gerekse dil dışı etkenler çerçevesinde irdeleyen bilimdir. Dilsel etkenler açısından bir metnin doğru kurgulanmış ve anlamlandırılmış bir metin olabilmesi bağdaşıklık özelliğine sahip olmasıyla yakından ilgilidir. Bir metnin anlamlı bir metin olabilmesi, metinde geçen sözcükler arasında belirli bir mantık çerçevesinde kurulmuş anlamsal bir ilişki olmasıyla ve sözcüklerin dizilişinde yapıya ilişkin birtakım kurallar silsilesine uyulmuş olmasıyla yakından ilgilidir. Çeşitli türdeki sözcüksel girdilerin seçimi, bir metnin metinselliğine katkıda bulunur (Abushihab, 2008). Sözcüksel bağdaşıklıkla ilgili olarak, yazarlar metinlerde anlamsal veya sözcüksel diziler yaratırlar ve söz konusu diziler bir binayı ayakta tutan tuğlalar gibi işlev görürler (a.e.). Tamlamalar ise kurdukları iyelik, ilgi, benzerlik, nitelik gibi bildirimler nedeniyle metnin bağdaşıklığında önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Demir’e göre Çağdaş dilbilim, kelimelerin ve kelime gruplarının sadece biçimsel boyutu ile değil, daha çok bunların bağlam içinde ürettiği anlam ile de ilgilenmektedir (Demir, 2007:27). Dolayısıyla isim tamlamalarının anlam boyutu metindilibilim çalışmalarında ele alınması gereken önemli bir konu olarak karşmıza çıkmaktadır. Öte yandan Avrupada yaşayan iki dilli Türk öğrencilerinin kendilerini anadilleri Türkçede ifade ederken sözlü ve yazılı dili kullanma bağlamında ciddi sorunlar yaşadıkları öteden beri bilinen bir gerçektir (İnce, 2011; Akıncı, 2007). Sözcüksel bağdaşıklık iki dilli öğrencilerin dil ve metin edinçlerine etki eden önemli bir etkendir. Bu çalışma, iki dilli Türk öğrencilerin ürettikleri metinlerde görülen bazı dil yanlışlarının sözcüksel bağdaşıklık boyutuyla incelenmesini ve inceleme sonucunda elde edilen verilerden hareketle anadili eğitimi politikaları ile ilgili bazı öneriler sunulmasını amaçlamaktadır. Betimsel nitelik taşıyan bu çalışmada veriler doküman incelemesi yöntemi ile toplanmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında öğrencilere kısa bir video film izlettirilmiş ve öğrencilerden izledikleri filmde geçen olaylarla ilgili açıklayıcı ve öyküleyici türde metinler oluşturmaları istenmiştir. Çalışmanın evrenini Avrupada yaşayan iki dilli Türk öğrencileri, örneklemini ise Fransa/Paris’te öğrenimlerine devam eden ilköğretim seviyesindeki yaklaşık 30 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre; iki dilli Türk öğrencilerin sözcüksel bağdaşıklık bağlamında isim tamlamaları oluşturmada bir sıkıntı yaşadıkları ve verilmekte olan anadili eğitiminde bu durumun göz önünde bulundurulması gerektiği söylenebilir.

This study explains why multicultural in-service teacher training is important for teachers, who teach Turkish as a foreign language, and proposes approaches for their professional development. This in-service training is required for the purpose of constructing improved communication between teacher and students. The theoretical framework was based on Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory. It provides social and cultural basis of teaching through social mediation that provides teachers with a flexible instructional environment. This flexibility gives teachers several opportunities such as “modelling, contingency management, cognitive structuring, task structuring”, etc. The research was conducted in Mustafa Germirli Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesi, Kayseri, which was one of the multinational high schools sponsored by Ministry of National Education and Turkish Religious Affairs Foundation. This qualitative study examined the attitudes and beliefs of teachers towards language education in a multicultural environment. The five study participants were in-service, high school Turkish language teachers, who have made efforts to match the curricular objectives with students' needs. Data were collected through semi-structured, face-to-face interviews using open-ended questions and classroom observation sheets. As a result of interpretive analysis, we focused on understanding how in-service learning process could be shaped on behalf of professional growth, and could be more responsively implemented through multicultural education. Implementation of national curriculum, adaptation of textbooks, culturally adjusted activities, student writing portfolios based on CEFR were all responsibilities of teachers that they had to take care at multicultural instruction. We also studied how they adjusted to these components of instruction through facilitations and collaborations they themselves discovered at this in-service learning process.

Author Author ÖZÇINAR-SIREL, Nazan Abstract A summary of the resource. With the improvement of technology, many young people regard themselves as non-readers because they would rather engage in getting information from other forms of media such as the Internet, television, advertising, music, movies, video games and other digital realities. Therefore, teachers are constantly thinking of challenging ways to assign tasks that students can perform with these digital gadgets. Teachers are also aware of the fact that students need to be exposed to reading materials as much as possible so that they can improve their level of English. It is difficult to envisage a language- teaching programme without any reading tasks assigned to students. Whether teachers assign their students to read graded reader tasks or newspaper articles does not make any difference. It is a known fact that students will improve their reading skills with any reading tasks assigned to them. Therefore, reading newspaper articles is an effective way that teachers can use with their intermediate level of students to improve their reading skills. Unfortunately, we are not much of a reading society and we don’t even read a newspaper regularly in our mother tongue let alone in English. ‘Glocal News’ is one way of these challenging tasks designed for students at the intermediate level to encourage students to read online newspaper articles that they are interested in and present it online as a summary activity on MOODLE, an online open source known also as Course Management Systems (CMS). This workshop attempts to suggest an innovative approach to reading online newspaper articles to create online video journals.

A cross-cultural comparative study Author Author Zoghlami, Naouel Abstract A summary of the resource. During the last few decades, understanding the processes and strategies involved in L2/FL listening comprehension has received a firmly increasing attention. More specifically, the roles played by certain variables and the variance they might explain/account for in English speech comprehension have been the center of attention. Grounded in cognitive theory of learning, the present paper focuses on metacognition and its significant role in second-language (L2) listening comprehension. Metacognition refers to thinking about one’s own cognition and its regulation. Awareness and control of cognitive processes have proved to be necessary for successful listening. After the piloting and validation of a 23-item questionnaire designed to investigate listeners’ metacognitive knowledge, and to examine the degree of L2 and FL students’ metacognitive awareness while listening and report on the strategies commonly used, this instrument was administered to two groups of different cultural backgrounds: French (L2) and Tunisian (FL) students of English. The findings showed that the participants were generally aware of their difficulties as listeners. Yet, not all of them were fully conscious about the cognitive processes involved in listening comprehension. Some differences between the groups were also discovered. The analysis of strategy use demonstrated that Tunisian learners, unlike the French ones, believed more in the usefulness and importance of two kinds of strategies; those pertaining to the metacognitive processes of problem-solving and planning and evaluation. The paper ends by outlining the importance of metacognitve instruction for successful second language listening and self-regulated learning and pointing that this instruction needs to be culturally bound. The paper also considers the limitations of the study and offers some suggestions for future research.

In the communicative model of language teaching, we should help our students develop authentic practice for real-life communication situations. The main objective of this session is to introduce a series of innovative and creative classroom activities increasing students’ motivation and confidence to speak more voluntarily inside and outside class. In this session I will demonstrate various speaking activities to be used all year round. The session starts with a fun ice breaker activity whose purpose is to warm up the conversation both in the session, and later on, in our classes. A picture is drawn on the board and the presenter invites the attendees to ask her some questions about the picture, which is only aim is to get information about the presenter. Afterwards, the attendees do the same activity in pairs, and later share what they have learned from each other to the others. The second activity, Fast and Faster, is a competitive and enjoyable game in which the attendees will have to speak faster at each lap to tell the key topics to their partners, which provides a meaningful communication with the least amount of correction. The next activity called “Mandatory Speaking” (The Practice of English Language Teaching, pg. 347) is based on fluency-based approach. In this activity the attendees will be given a speaking grid on which their names are written. Each box in the speaking grid stands for one minute conversation. Besides, the numbers show the order of the conversation that they need to follow when the presenter gives a topic. Lastly, I will show an activity depending on headline news and interview questions that the attendees will create their own stories (Teaching Unplugged, pg. 38). Half of the class line up with their own front pages, the other half stand in front of a partner to ask him/her questions to learn more about their headline. After a minute or so, the questioners rotate until they have spoken to each headline-holder.

Reading is a field that feeds all skills. Students gain experience in each reading process and they acquire the basic reading and writing skills at school. Then it becomes a habit of reading. Students improve their reading skills when they do an activity in the coursebooks. They develop the capacity of understanding and increase the reading effort as well. The purpose of this study; is to gain reading skills to the students with the help of text comprehension activity, prepared according to the textuality. The most important target of Turkish Lesson Curriculum which has been prepared according to the constructivist approach, is to provide students read the text correctly and provide them understand it completely. In this study, any kind of activity which aims understanding of the text according to the textuality, will be submitted in 6th grade Turkish lessons. Those kinds of activities provide students perceive and interpret easily. Text comprehension activities that we do in our study, consist of three parts; pre-text studying (summary, visual summary, monitoring, result deduction, planning), targeted-text studying (reading monitoring/strategy) and final-text studying (genre analysis). So that, thought to these activities, the object of the author, the genre of the text, language and expression feature, development of intellectual and emotional and word frame may be easily recognized.

The German literary works that deal with the separation of Germany in World War Two are not much deeply examined in Turkey for political reasons as such works concentrate on the deficiencies of nationalism. The aim of this study is to examine this work from a positivist perspective, which explores the relation between author’s life and the work considering the work is inspired by the life of author. Therefore, the present study is to investigate if there is any close relation between Anna Seghers experiences she lived during her escape from Germany to France due to Nazi concentration camps and her novel “Transit”. Anna Seghers is one of the famous German authors that suffered from what happened during World War II in Germany, notably from Nazi camps. She always tried to express her feelings and her own experiences that were lived in those days in her works. Her well-known novel “Transit” explores the plight of German refugees from Hitler attempting to leave France via the seaport of Marseilles between the French capitulation in 1940 and the Spring of 1941. As in other works, Seghers uses a language in this work that depicts the tragedy of the victims and infinite confidence in the human essence which can never be destroyed. The novel “Transit” can also be seen as the critique of the decadent Western World and the writer’s plea for political commitment.
