Effects of Grammar Teaching Materials Developed for Teaching Turkish as Foreign Language on Achievement and Writing Competence
Abstract
When studies which aim to provide teaching materials needed for both instructing grammar topics and improving language competences in the process of teaching Turkish as foreign language, are analyzed, the most important deficiency is that developed materials have not been tested in terms of functionality, in other words, have not been confirmed with regard to influence on achievement by using these materials in teaching process. In this research basing upon mentioned problem, it is aimed to find out effectiveness, efficiency and influence on achievement of teaching materials developed for using in teaching Turkish as foreign language. With limited words in the sense of this study’s scope, the purpose of this research is to present whether materials enriched with animations in the topic of adverbs have impact on academic achievement of Turkish learners as foreign language or not and variance between groups happens with regard to use of what is learnt in writing competence at the end of implementation or not. This research designed with control group posttest experimental model, carried out 32 (16 experimental, 16 control) Turkish language learners who are in 2 different B1 level class selected randomly. According to research results; posttest scores of learners in experimental group who learn adverbs with the materials prepared by researcher are higher than points of students in control group who went with the course book on adverbs and this variation between experimental and control groups is significant. When effect of score variation occurred between groups on achievement is calculated, it is determined that independent variable has quite big impact on success. In accordance with another outcome from research; it is detected that learners in experimental group used more adverbs than students in control group as writing. These results show that materials used during instruction of experimental group, affect academic achievement positively in the topic of adverbs and enhance it; instruction via the materials prepared by researcher, contribute to improvement of learners’ writing competence in point of ability to use adverbs.
