The Effects of Writing Activities Prepared Considering the 8th Grade Students’ Cognitive Levels into Consideration upon their Writing Skill Success

Öz

In this study, in order to raise the level of interest and success of the students towards writing skill, Cognitive Approach was used. This study took place in Amasya Suluova Bolat Primary Education School and 24 students attended the study as the control group and the other 24 students attended as the Experimental Group. While the Traditional Method, which was also suggested by the Teacher’s Book presented by the Ministry of National Education was used for the Control Group, Experimental Group’s lessons included activities considering Cognitive Approach. English Writing Skill Test which was prepared by the researcher was practised on both groups and no significant difference was detected. However, at the end of the 12 week period, Experimental Group’s post-test results were higher than the Control Group’s. Though this skill is considered as time-consuming from most teachers’ point of view and difficult from the students’, it is seen that if it is taught via Cognitive Approach, the interest towards the skill and the lesson increases. It is thought that if the teachers take the students’ cognition level into consideration and use Cognitive Approach in their lessons, both the success level in such a productive skill and interest as well as motivation will increase towards English lesson.
