Abstract

Yabancı dil öğrenen bireyler için yazma becerisi, hedef dilin öğrenilmesi ve işlevsel hale getirilmesi için en temel becerilerden birisidir. Yazma becerisi ile öğrenciler hem hedef dilin dil bilgisi kurallarını hem de kelime bilgisini bir arada kullanırken diğer taraftan bunlar arasında anlamlı ilişkiler kurarak bir bütün oluşturmaya çalışırlar. Bu bağlamda, çalışmanın amacı ortaöğretim 9. sınıfta öğrenim gören öğrencilerin İngilizce yazma becerisini kazanma sürecinde karşılaştıkları problemlerin, onlara yazma becerisi dil öğrenme stratejilerini nasıl kullanacakları öğretilerek ortadan kaldırılmasıdır. Araştırma, nitel araştırma yöntemleri arasında yer alan eylem araştırması ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma grubunu, 2018-2019 eğitim öğretim yılında Afyonkarahisar il merkezindeki bir lisede öğrenimlerine devam eden 38 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Veriler, araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu, gözlem formu, araştırmacı-uygulayıcı ve öğrenci günlükleri ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde betimsel analiz kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler, yazma becerisi dil öğrenme stratejilerini kullanmaya başlayan öğrencilerin yazma etkinliklerine çok daha motivasyonu yüksek bir şeklide başladığını ve bu motivasyonun yazma sürecini olumlu anlamda etkilediğini göstermektedir. Ayrıca, yazma etkinliğini yazma stratejileri kullanarak yapan öğrencilerin yazma esnasında ne yapacaklarını çok daha iyi bildikleri için etkinlikleri çok daha doğru yaptıkları gözlemlenmiştir.

Abstract

For individuals learning foreign languages, writing skill is one of the basic skills for learning and functionalizing the target language. With the ability to write, students use both the grammar rules and vocabulary of the target language together, and try to form a whole by establishing meaningful relationships between them. In this context, the aim of this study is to eliminate the problems that the 9th grade students faced in the process of gaining English writing skills by teaching them how to use language learning strategies. The research was carried out with the action research. The study group of the research consists of 38 high school students in Afyonkarahisar studying in the 2018-2019 academic year. The research data were collected by a semi-structured interview form, an observation form, researcher-practitioner and student diaries. The data were collected during the treatment process. Descriptive analysis was used in the analysis of data. The data obtained from the diaries, the interview and observation forms show that students using language learning strategies started writing activities in a much more motivated way and this motivation positively affected the writing process. In addition, it was observed that the students who completed the writing tasks using writing strategies did the activities much more accurately because they knew what to do during the writing activity much better.
