AB  - Phonetic phenomena are one of the most challenging topics for students in Turkish language classes. Comic books are considered a genre that captures students’ attention with their illustrations and humorous language. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effect of comic books designed and published by researchers on the teaching of phonetic phenomena. The research was conducted using a mixed-methods approach with an explanatory sequential design. A quasi-experimental design was adopted for the quantitative dimension and a phenomenological design for the qualitative dimension. The study group consisted of 76 5th-grade students. The quantitative data were obtained using a phonetic phenomena achievement test developed by the researchers, while the qualitative data were collected through a semi-structured interview form conducted with 10 volunteers in the experimental group. In the analysis of quantitative data, an independent groups t-test was performed using the SPSS program. Qualitative data were analyzed through content analysis with the MAXQDA 24 program. According to the pre-test data, no significant difference was found between the experimental and control groups, while the post-test data showed a significant difference in favor of the experimental group. Students found the comics enjoyable and helpful for reading and comprehension. They frequently expressed opinions stating that the use of comics designed by researchers in Turkish lessons was positive and effective in teaching phonics, highlighting elements such as cover design, character drawing, and plot as appealing. Based on the research findings, it is recommended that comic books be used in teaching phonics.

N2  - Türkçe dersinde ses olayları öğrenciler için öğrenilmesi zor konulardan birisidir. Çizgi romanların çizimleri ve esprili dilleriyle öğrencilerin dikkatini çeken bir tür olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bu nedenle çalışmada araştırmacılar tarafından tasarlanan ve basılan çizgi romanların ses olaylarının öğretimine etkisi incelenmek istenmiştir. Araştırma karma yöntemlerden açımlayıcı sıralı desen ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Nicel boyutta yarı deneysel desen, nitel boyutta olgubilim deseni benimsenmiştir. Araştırmanın çalışma grubu 5. sınıfta öğrenimlerini sürdüren 76 öğrenciden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmanın nicel verileri araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen ses olayları başarı testi ile, nitel verileri ise deney grubunda yer alan gönüllü 10 kişiyle gerçekleştirilen yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu aracılığıyla elde edilmiştir Nicel kısımdaki verilerin analizinde SPSS programından destek alınarak bağımsız gruplar t testi yapılmıştır. Nitel kısımdaki veriler MAXQDA 24 programından yararlanılarak içerik analizi ile çözümlenmiştir. Çalışmanın ön test verilerine göre deney ve kontrol grubu arasında anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmazken çalışmanın son test verilerinde deney ve kontrol grupları arasında deney grubu lehine anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmiştir. Öğrenciler, çizgi romanları eğlenceli, okumayı ve anlamayı kolaylaştırıcı bulmuşlardır. Kapak tasarımı, karakter çizimi, olay örgüsü gibi unsurlarının dikkat çekici, Türkçe dersinde araştırmacılar tarafından tasarlanan çizgi romanların kullanılmasının olumlu olduğunu ve ses olaylarının öğretiminde ise etkili olduğunu belirten çeşitli görüşleri daha sık dile getirmişlerdir. Araştırma sonuçlarından hareketle çizgi romanların ses olaylarının öğretiminde kullanılması önerilmektedir.
