    Beur Yazını ve Verlan Dili: Fransa’daki Kuzey Afrika Göç(er) Söylemi
    (2020) Tilbe, Ali; Topaloğlu, Yusuf
    1980’li yıllarda, adını Arap sözcüğünün hecelerinin yer değiştirilmesiyle elde edilen Verlan Dili ile bu süreçte gelişen Beur Yazını, yeni bir yazar kuşağını yazın evrenine taşımıştır. Beur yazını, Kuzey Afrika kökenli ya da Fransa'da doğup büyüyen Kuzey Afrika göçerlerinin özgün söylemidir. Göçün etkisiyle sömürgecilik sonrası ortaya çıkan bu yazınsal akımın romanlarının genç anlatı kişileri, sürekli bir iç çatışma içinde olup, iki ekin, iki yaşam ve iki toplum arasında algılanan göç acısı, eşitsizlik ve sömürgeleştirme duygusu içinde parçalanırlar. Özellikle 2005 yılından başlayarak, önce Yörekent Yazını daha sonra da Çağdaş Kent Yazını ve Dünya-Yazını olarak tanımlanan bu alan, yazın ve dilbilim dünyasında bütünüyle yeni bir araştırma ve eleştiri nesnesi olarak belirmiştir. Beur Yazını romanlarında yazar, farklı kökenlerden, ekinlerden ve Arapça, Berber, Afrika ve Karayip ile Çingene dillerinden oluşan toplulukların dil uygulamalarını birlikte kullanarak çoğul ve karma yeni bir dilsel / söylemsel uzam oluşturmuştur. Biz bu çalışmada Mağrip ülkelerinden ulusötesi göç sonrası Fransa’da gelişen Beur yazını ve Verlan dilini, tarihsel ve kuramsal bağlamda incelemeyi amaçlıyoruz.

    Evaluation of the textbook used in the pandemic: From teachers’ and students’ perspectives
    (2022) Aysu, Semahat
    The textbook has a significant role in language teaching process for both teachers and learners. Therefore, teachers should select it considering the needs of learners, language teaching method or channel. In other words, a textbook might be appropriate for foreign language learners but not for second language learners or a textbook might be very useful for face-to-face teaching but not for online teaching. Therefore, this current study aims to evaluate “Life” textbook series, which was used in an elective preparatory school of a state university in Turkey. It was used through online learning during the pandemic. Since the number of English teachers in the elective preparatory class is less than 20 and the results, in turn, cannot be statistically significant, qualitative analysis was carried out. Furthermore, students’ opinions about the book and its activities were revealed through the parallel questionnaire. Open-ended questions were employed in this study. Data gathered by means of the questionnaires were analyzed via thematic analysis. Based on the gathered data, 3 codes were revealed, which are listed as in the following: strengths, weaknesses and suggestions.

    Teaching during COVID-19: Experiences of two novice distance language teachers
    (IGI Global, 2022) Karaduman, Güray
    Distance education has been gaining importance, especially as a result of the rapid and continuing developments in the internet and information and communications technologies. However, its being beneficial and effective has been discussed by educational researchers. Due to their lack of practice or experiences in distance teaching, a great number of teachers feel prejudiced toward distance learning. This study aims to have a deeper understanding of how novice distance teachers, who have just begun to teach English at a distance during the breakout of the COVID-19 pandemic, experienced distance teaching. The study was conducted at a state university in Turkey in the 2019-2020 spring term. The participants of the study were two English language instructors with a teaching experience of 10+ years. Descriptive analysis of semi-structured interviews and the researcher's affiliation with the cases as an insider helped to reveal the personal, teaching, and technical/ technological issues which affect the participants' experiences of distance teaching. © 2022, IGI Global.

    Neoliberal Governmentality and Performativity Culture in Higher Education: Reflections on Academic Identity
    (Turkish Educational Admin Research & Development Assoc, 2020) Tülübaş, Tijen; Göktürk, Şöheyda
    This qualitative study aims to explore how the culture of performativity resulting from the influences of neoliberal governmentality on the academe is perceived by academics throughout their career and interrogates how their perceptions could reflect on their professional identity. The study was conducted with twenty-four academics from state universities in Turkey. The analysis of the in-depth interviews revealed that the emerging culture of performativity in higher education institutions seems to establish three identity trajectories as perceived by academics. Accordingly, some resist to conforming to the neoliberal norms in the academe, some feel obliged to conform to these norms albeit with ethical dilemmas while some welcome and embrace these emerging norms. The findings highlight some threatening consequences of performativity as a neoliberal policy tool in higher education for both the soul of the academic profession and the quality of work in the context of Turkey. Implications are identified, which include the need to develop new policy tools prioritizing professional integrity and internal accountability to achieve desired quality in higher education.

    Instructional Practices that Motivate Students to Learn English
    (Nesibe Aydin Education Inst, 2018) Kurt, Pınar Yuncu; Kurt, Hüseyin
    Motivation to learn English plays a curial role in students' performance, achievement and attendance. This indicates that instructors should be aware of the importance of motivation and strive to motivate their students. To be able to do that, instructors should have a novel knowledge of instructional practices that motivate students so that they can adjust their teaching methods and insert motivational tactics and strategies into their teaching procedures. Thus, the aim of this article is to find out the instructional practices that motivate students to learn English most. For that reason, ARCS motivational model (Keller, 2010) was applied throughout ten weeks in main course lessons of preparatory classes at Namik Kemal University during students' regular class hour. By means of this model several motivational tactics and strategies were inserted to the classroom instruction. Researchers prepared detailed lesson plans according to the weekly schedule and needs of the students and the students were asked to write weekly comments about them at the end of each week. Next week's lesson plan was prepared based on researchers' observation of the effectiveness of the lesson plan and students' comments collected previous week. Using a qualitative research design, comments from 30 students were collected in ten weeks and analyzed. As a result, we have reached the conclusion that students' comments can be evaluated under two headings. The first heading includes comments related to classroom instruction and the second one is related to instructor behavior and we tried to explain them in detail in this article.

The results show that there is a significant but a low correlation between students’ writingstrategy use and their midterm results. However, during the interviews, students state that they can’tuse the writing strategies during the exams because of limited time for the writing part or just becausethe strategies such as searching the topic on the internet and looking up dictionaries they generallyuse are not appropriate for the exams. Furthermore, the use of writing strategies does not differaccording to gender; on the other hand, students with higher self-proficiency level use more writingstrategies.

    Die patriarchalische Rollenverteilung in Birgit Vanderbekes Erzählung Das Muschelessen
    (2019) Özen, Neriman Nüzket
    Dieser Beitrag befasst sich mit der patriarchalischen Rollenverteilung der Figuren und mit den charakteristischen Merkmalen, die zu der Konstruktion der Geschlechterrollen führen. Um die Analyse und Aufweisung der Figuren zeigt sich die Gender Studies als hilfreich. Der Roman handelt vom Leben einer Familie, die kurz vor dem Mauerbau nach Westen umzieht. In dem Roman kann der Leser Parallelen zum Leben der Autorin erschlie?en, aber die Autorin verneint in ihren Aussagen jede biografische Ähnlichkeit. Sie schildert ein Familienleben unter dem Schatten der Machtverhältnisse und patriarchalischen Rollen der ehemaligen DDR. Die individuelle Freiheit und die neuen Umstände im alltäglichen Leben und Beruf im Westen sind neu für die Familienmitglieder. Dazu kommen noch die Vorurteile der Menschen in dieser neuen Welt und dies alles übt einen gro?en Druck aus. Obwohl die Familie aus den Machtverhältnissen der DDR geflohen ist, ist nun der Vater die Macht und Gewalt ausübende Hauptfigur, der den Rest der Familie tyrannisiert. Die Tochter beschreibt als Ich-Erzählerin die familiäre Verhältnisse im Monolog ausführlich, aber sie vermeidet eine explizite Äu?erung zu den Gewalttätigkeiten des Familienoberhauptes. Einen offenen Widerstand gegen die Unterdrückung zeigt weder die Mutter, noch der Sohn oder die Tochter. Vanderbeke konstruiert als Vater eine literarische Figur, die Angst und Erschrecken nicht auf provozierender Art, sondern mit Regeln, Familienrituellen, Erwartungen und impliziten Verboten verbreitet. Die Abrechnung mit dem Vater findet in seiner Abwesenheit statt. Zum ersten Mal sprechen die restlichen Familienmitglieder sich aus, ohne die Angst zu spüren, dass der Vater sie bestrafen wird. Und dies wird der Anfang der Auflösung einer ‘Scheinfamilie’.

    Geçmişe Uzanan Bir Yol Hikayesi Lucy Frıcke'nin Töchter Romanında Kızlar ve 'Gölge' Babaları
    (2021) Özen, Neriman Nüzket
    Lucy Fricke’nin Töchter adlı romanı, iki kadın figürün babaları ve geçmişleriyle hesaplaşmak için çıktıkları yolculuğu anlatmaktadır. Biri yıllar sonra ortaya çıkan babasının son arzusunu yerine getirmeye, diğeri çocukluğunda annesini terk eden ve baba olarak gördüğü adamın izini sürmeye çalışan iki kadının sembolik yol hikayesidir bu. İki kadın yolculuk ilerledikçe, geçmişlerinde babasız büyümenin hayatlarına verdiği zararla bir kez daha yüzleşirler. Yazar bu yolculukta pek çok maceralı, tehlikeli, gizemli olayı sahnelerken romanını sinemada bir film türü olan Road Movie’nin (yol filmi) edebiyattaki yansıması olan Road Novel (yol romanı) türünde yazmıştır. Yıllar sonra hayatlarına tekrar geri giren baba figürleri karşısında bu cesur kadınların nasıl tepki vereceği yazarın üslubu sayesinde okuru heyecanlı bir bekleyişe bırakmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı babasız büyüyen kadınları temsilen Martha ve Betty bağlamında öncelikle Fricke’nin bu sorunsalı irdelerken hangi karakteristik özelliklere sahip dişil figürler kurguladığını ve babasızlığın bu figürlere etkisini ortaya koymaktır. Sonrasında ise babasızlık kavramını Almanya’nın tarihsel ve sosyokültürel gerçekliğinde ele alarak toplumsal dönem ve yapının arka plan bilgisini aktarmak ve çalışmanın son bölümünde yazarın başarısında önemli bir role sahip olan farklı üslubuna dikkat çekmektir

    John Fiske and Popular Culture: a Critical Reading of Margaret Tyler's "Epistle to the Reader"
    (2021) Aydoğdu Çelik, Merve
    This paper examines how Margaret Tyler overcomes literary inferiority in the “Epistleto the Reader” that precedes her translation The Mirrour of Princely Deeds andKnighthood. Tyler, as a woman and an author, is in a secondary position in thepatriarchal Elizabethan society and print culture. Notwithstanding her disadvantagedstatus, she circumvents it through various tactics, and she defends both her act andwomen’s right to write. Tyler does not overtly challenge the assumptions prevalent inprint culture but manipulates them to her own end. The fact that she employs severalstrategies to earn a place in the system renders it possible to evaluate the prefacewithin the framework of John Fiske’s popular culture theory. As is evident from the“Epistle,” Tyler resists the dominant culture, and she produces her oppositional stanceout of the resources of the dominant. Thus, Tyler’s preface functions as an element ofpopular culture.
