Moldova Gagauzya’da İngilizce Öğretim Perspektifleri

Abstract

Moldova’daki Gagauzya çok dilli özerk bir bölgedir. Bu bölge, İngilizce dil öğrencileri- nin yanı sıra Rusça, Rumence ve Gagauzca dillerinin konuşulduğu çok dilli bir bölgedir. Son zamanlarda, okullarda çalışılan yabancı dillerin oranı İngilizce lehine önemli ölçüde değişmiştir. Yeni dil politikası ayrıca, öğrenciler arasında birden fazla dil öğrenmenin ko- rumalı bir perspektifte gerçekleşmesini ve onlar için olumlu bir sonuç yaratmasını sağla- malıdır. Ayrıca, EFL eğitimcileri çok dilli topluma etkili bir şekilde entegre olması gereken çeşitli dil becerilerine sahip öğrencileri etkili bir şekilde hazırlamalarını sağlamalıdır. Bu, bireylerin, etkileşim kurdukları diğer insanların hassas dilsel ve kültürel ihtiyaçlarına uy- gun şekilde cevap vermeleri için eğitilerek başarılabilir. İnsanların çok dilli bir toplumda yaşadığını kabul etmek önemlidir. Bu nedenle, bireylerin dil öğretme ve öğrenme süreci- ni nasıl geliştirdikleri, gerçek dünyanın çok dilli bakış açılarını dikkate almalıdır. Bu ma- kalede, çokdilliliğin tanımı ve bağlamı, bireylerin ağırlıklı olarak İngilizce kullanırken ve çokdilliliğin hayatlarımız üzerinde büyük bir etkisi olduğu gerçeğini kabul ederken diğer- leriyle etkili bir şekilde etkileşime girme yolları tartışılmaktadır. Makale ayrıca, kitlesel göçü çeken bölgelerdeki gelişmekte olan çok dilli kalıplarla eşleşmek için mevcut eğitim yaklaşımlarını ve hükümet politikalarını değiştirmenin önemini de tartışıyor. Her şeyden önce, makale bu fikirlerin gelecekteki dil öğrenimi, öğretimi ve değerlendirmesine tüm dil öğrenimi öğrencilerine daha iyi öğrenme sonuçları sağlamak için uygulanabileceği yeni yollar geliştirmeyi dört gözle bekliyor.

Perspectives of Teaching in English in Gagauzia in Moldova

Abstract

Gagauzia in Moldova is an multilingual autonomous region. This region is a multilingual region where besides of English language pupils study Russian, Romanian and Gagauzian languages. Recently, the ratio of foreign languages studied at the schools has changed dramatically in favor of the English language. The new language policy should also ensure that learning of multiple languages among students takes place in a protected perspective and create a positive outcome for them. Furthermore, EFL educators must ensure that they effectively prepare learners with various language skills that need to integrate into the multilingual society effectively. This can be accomplished through training individuals to respond appropriately to the sensitive linguistic and cultural needs of other people that they interact with. It is considerable to acknowledge that people live in a multilingual society. Therefore, how individuals cultivate the process of teaching and learning language must take into account the multilingual perspectives of the real world. This article discusses the definition and context of multilingualism, ways in which individuals can effectively interact with others while predominantly using English and accepting the reality that multilingualism has a massive impact on our lives. The article also discusses the importance of changing the current educational approaches and government policies to match the developing multilingual patterns in regions that attract mass migration. Above all, the article looks forward to developing new ways in which these ideas can be applied to help future language learning, teaching, and assessment to provide improved learning outcomes for all language learning students.
