Impact of Derivational Morpheme Teaching on Vocabulary of the Students Learning Turkish as Foreign Language

Year 2018, Volume: 47 Issue: 2, 439 - 491, 01.10.2018

Abstract

This research was carried out to reveal the impacts
of derivational morpheme teaching on vocabulary of the students learning
Turkish as a foreign language, and the research was performed with the use of
quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control group, which is
one of the quantitative research methods. The study group of the research
consists of 26 foreign students learning Turkish at B2 level at Ondokuz Mayıs
University in 2016-2017 academic year. The application process of the research was
carried out within the last 8 weeks until the completion of the educational
program for the students at B2 level, which started on April 3, 2017 in Turkish
Teaching Practice and Research Center at Ondokuz Mayıs University. The
collected data and analyses have shown that the students learning Turkish as a
foreign language benefited significantly from the derivational morpheme
teaching, that the vocabulary of the experimental group improved more
effectively than the control group. It has also been determined that learners'
success in terms of vocabulary was influenced by the origin and structure of
their native languages. As a result of the detailed analysis carried out on the
data, it has been found out that the improvement in the vocabulary of the students
from the experimental group was recorded as 88 words in average (30.98%)
according to the evaluation made on 284 words, that the impact of the
experimental practice on this improvement was calculated as 62.4 words
(21.97%), and that the derivational morpheme teaching made contribution to the
vocabulary of the students at the rate of 1.06% per each derivational morpheme.

Yapım Eki Öğretiminin Türkçeyi Yabancı Dil Olarak Öğrenenlerin Kelime Hazinesi Üzerindeki Etkisi

Year 2018, Volume: 47 Issue: 2, 439 - 491, 01.10.2018

Abstract

Yapım eki öğretiminin Türkçeyi yabancı dil olarak
öğrenenlerin kelime hazinesi üzerindeki etkisini ortaya çıkarmak amacıyla
gerçekleştirilen bu araştırmada nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden öntest–sontest
kontrol gruplu yarı deneysel desen tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmanın çalışma
grubunu 2016-2017 eğitim-öğretim yılında Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesinde Türkçe
öğrenen B2 düzeyindeki 26 yabancı öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın
uygulama süreci Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi Türkçe Öğretimi Uygulama ve
Araştırma Merkezi’nde 03.04.2017 tarihinde başlayan B2 kurundaki öğrencilerle
bu kur tamamlanana kadar geçen 8 hafta içerisinde gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Uygulama kapsamında seçilen 25 yapım ekinin her birine 2 şer ders saati
ayrılmış, bu saatlerden ilk saat öğretim ikinci saat ise alıştırma-pekiştirme
çalışmaları için kullanılmıştır. Toplanan veriler ve analizler, yabancı dil
olarak Türkçe öğrenenlerin yapım eki öğretiminden önemli ölçüde istifade
ettiklerini ve bu öğretimi alan grubun kelime hazinesinin daha fazla
geliştiğini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Ayrıca kelime hazinesi bakımından elde edilen başarıda
öğrenenlerin ana dillerinin kökeni ve yapısının da etkisinin bulunduğu
belirlenmiştir. Veriler üzerinde yapılan detaylı inceleme sonucunda 284 kelime
üzerinden yapılan değerlendirmeye göre yapım eki öğretimini alan öğrenenlerin
kelime hazinesindeki ilerlemenin ortalama 88 kelime olduğu (%30.98), deneysel
uygulamanın bu gelişimdeki payının 62.4 kelime (%21.97) olduğu ve yapım eki
öğretiminin kelime hazinesine yapım eki başına % 1.06 oranında katkı sağladığı
tespit edilmiştir.
