    (Anadolu Üniversitesi, 2010-04-01) Kartal, Erdoğan; Uzun, Levent; KARTAL, ERDOĞAN; UZUN, LEVENT; Eğitin Fakültesi; Fransızca Öğretmenliği Bölümü; 0000-0002-9836-5221; I-6741-2019; HJG-7268-2022
    In the present study we call attention to the close connection between languages and globalization, and we also emphasize the importance of the Internet and online websites in foreign language teaching and learning as unavoidable elements of computer assisted language learning (CALL). We prepared a checklist by which we investigated 28 foreign language teaching websites (4 from each of seven languages including English, French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish and Turkish). The participants were 14 third-year university students who were enrolled in the French Language teaching department, but had a basic knowledge of the related languages that was sufficient to read and write. All the students had taken CALL classes at university level, and had previous experience of website evaluation and assessment. As a result of the analyses of the language teaching websites, we observed that they were lacking physically, contextually and pedagogically. Consequently, we built a model foreign language website frame considering the feedback that we received from the subjects. We believe that our website evaluation checklist and model website frame might greatly serve the CALL field.

    Opinions and suggestions of prospective teachers on the teaching of speaking skill in French: The case of Bursa Uludag University
    (Istanbul Univ, Fac Letters, 2019-01-01) Alpar, Melek; Kartal, Erdoğan; KARTAL, ERDOĞAN; Eğitim Fakültesi; HJG-7268-2022
    In this study, student views on how speaking should be taught in a beginner's French class as a foreign language are analyzed. To achieve this, a survey was carried out among the prospective teachers studying at the Department of French Language Teaching of the Faculty of Education at Bursa Uludag University, at the end of the Fall 2011-2012 semester. The survey consisted of three open-ended questions. A total of 62 volunteers participated in the survey. The questions were: 1. Which methods and techniques should be used for effective French teaching? What approaches must be used to select these methods and techniques to make students more active and productive inside and outside the classroom? 2. How should the following four fundamental language skills be taught in French language teaching: a. Speaking; b. Reading; c. Writing; d. Listening; 3. Which assessment method(s), e.g. exams, should be used in French Language teaching and how should these methods be used? The link to the Google Docs survey was sent to students via electronic mail. In this survey, the students were asked to respond to the questions and share their opinions in Turkish. This study analyzes the students' views on how the subject of the second question, speaking skills, should be taught. In this qualitative survey based on the screening model, the views were classified under various topics after undergoing content analysis and discussed in comparison to the literature. The findings were then interpreted and presented as a situation assessment.

    The opinions and attitudes of the foreign language learners and teachers related to the traditional and digital games: Age and gender differences
    (Igi Global, 2013-04-01) Uzun, Levent; Ekin, M. Tuğba Yıldız; Kartal, Erdoğan; UZUN, LEVENT; YILDIZ EKİN, MEHZUDİL TUĞBA; KARTAL, ERDOĞAN; Eğitim Fakültesi; Fransızca Öğretmenliği Bölümü; 0000-0002-9836-5221; 0000-0002-2321-391X; HJG-7268-2022; I-6741-2019; CPS-8917-2022
    The present study aimed at investigating the differences between the teachers and the 'new generation' of learners, their opinions about which language skills would benefit more from games, and the nuances of the two genders (male and female), while also revealing the profiles and tendencies of different age groups in relation to their fascination with playing traditional or digital games. The subjects were 131 foreign language learners or teachers from five different age groups, ranging between 7 and 50. The data were collected and analysed through both qualitative and quantitative constructions. Results suggested that female subjects were mostly in favour of traditional games, and liked to play educational games more than their male counterparts, while also it was revealed that from among the six language skills, vocabulary seemed to have the potential to benefit most considerably from games.

    Reasons for university students in France to learn Turkish as a foreign language
    (İstanbul Üniversitesi, 2021-01-01) Güner, Fatih; Kartal, Erdoğan; KARTAL, ERDOĞAN; Eğitim Fakültesi; Yabancı Diller Eğitimi Bölümü; 0000-0002-9836-5221; HJG-7268-2022
    Knowledge of foreign languages besides ones native language is indispensable to maintaining relations in the fields of science, culture, art, education, politics, tourism, commerce and communication in the society. Today, teaching Turkish as a foreign language has become a hot topic that needs to be highlighted. This study seeks to determine why university students in France prefer to learn Turkish as a foreign language. Within the domain of qualitative research, this study embraced a "holistic single case design." It was performed with a total of 66 university students studying in France and learning Turkish in the second semester of the 2016-2017 academic year. The research data were obtained using an interview question answered by the participants. The content analysis of the data showed that the students chose to learn Turkish for the following reasons, which may be grouped under "personal reasons", "academic reasons","social reasons","economic reasons" and "Turkish-oriented reasons" An analysis of these reasons showed that the students, whose native language is French, mostly reported that they wanted to learn Turkish "to stay or live in Turkey" whereas the students, whose native language was not French, mostly stated that they wanted to learn Turkish "out of curiosity." The findings of this study may offer insights into designing materials in Turkish for university students in France.
