Öz

Bu araştırmanın amacı öğrencilerin kullandığı dil öğrenme stratejilerini belirlemek ve cinsiyet, akademik başarı gibi değişkenlerle, kullanılan stratejiler arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini Dicle Üniversitesi, Eğitim Fakültesi, İngiliz Dili Eğitimi Anabilim Dalı’nda okumakta olan 73 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Veriler öğrencilerin bilişsel, bilişüstü, duyuşsal, sosyal, telafi ve hafıza stratejilerini ne ölçüde kullandıklarını ölçmek için hazırlanan bir anket aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde t-testi, ANOVA ve Scheffe testinden yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, öğrencilerin bilişüstü, telafi ve sosyal stratejileri daha fazla kullandığı, dil öğrenme stratejilerinin kullanımı açısından bayan ve erkek öğrenciler arasında anlamlı bir fark olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, konuşma, yazma ve dilbilgisi derslerinde strateji kullanımı ve öğrenci başarısı arasındaki ilişkinin de istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olduğu saptanmıştır.
