Abstract

This paper examines the historical and theoretical underpinnings of the structural syllabus rooted on behaviorist and structuralist paradigms, while also comparing it to communicative and task-based techniques. The study underscores the appropriateness of a structured syllabus for agglutinative languages like Turkish, emphasizing the necessity of systematic and sequential acquisition of morpho-syntactic structures. It posits that such a syllabus establishes a robust foundation for fundamental grammatical proficiency, while also suggesting that language learning and use can be enhanced through the incorporation of communicative components and technology. The proposed syllabus model seeks to deliver a holistic approach that harmonizes structural and communicative tactics to enhance learning results. It also tackles the distinctive obstacles presented by the morphemic complexity of Turkish and demonstrates how a systematic syllabus can efficiently enhance the acquisition of grammatical and syntactic connections. The structural syllabus integrates conventional and contemporary pedagogical methods to enhance linguistic precision and fluency, aiming to deliver comprehensive language training for novice learners.

Türkçenin Yabancı Dil Olarak Öğretiminde Yapısal İzlence

Abstract

Çalışmada, davranışçı ve yapısalcı kuramsal çerçeveye dayanan yapısal izlencenin tarihsel ve kuramsal temelleri ele alınmakta; iletişimsel ve görev temelli yaklaşımlarla karşılaştırma yapılmaktadır. Türkçe gibi sondan eklemeli diller için yapısal izlencenin uygunluğunu vurgulayan çalışmada, biçim-sözdizimsel yapıların sistematik ve sıralı öğreniminin önemi öne çıkarılmakta, yapısal izlencenin temel dilbilgisi yeterliliği için sağlam bir çerçeve sunduğu belirtilmekte ancak iletişimsel unsurların ve teknolojinin entegrasyonuyla dil öğreniminin ve kullanımının geliştirilebileceği önerilmektedir. Bu çalışmayla başlangıç düzeyde öğrenme çıktılarının en uygun şekilde oluşması hedeflenmiş ve bunun için yapısal ve iletişimsel stratejileri birlikte kullanılmasıyla kapsamlı bir izlence önerisi sunmak amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca çalışmada, Türkçenin biçimbirimsel karmaşıklığının yarattığı benzersiz zorluklar ele alınmakta ve yapısal izlencenin dilbilgisel ve sözdizimsel bağların öğrenimini nasıl etkili bir şekilde kolaylaştırabileceği gösterilmektedir. Sunulan yapısal izlence ile geleneksel ve modern öğretim yaklaşımları birleştirilerek dilde doğruluk ve akıcılık teşvik edilmekte, başlangıç düzeyindeki dil öğrenicileri için çok yönlü bir dil öğretiminin sağlanması hedeflemektedir.
