Yabancı Dil Eğitimi ve Yabancı Dil Öğretmenliği Eğitim Politikaları: Türkiye, Singapur, Norveç ve Hollanda Karşılaştırması

Öz

Bu çalışmada Türkiye, Hollanda, Singapur ve Norveç’in ilköğretim yabancı dil eğitim programları ve İngilizce öğretmen yetiştirme sistemleri karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmiş; ülkelerin sistemlerindeki benzerlik ve farklılıkların ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma, Türkiye’nin yabancı dil yeterliliğinin düşük olmasının nedenlerini anlamaya ve uluslararası düzeyde başarılı ülkelerin uygulamalarından çıkarımlar yapmaya yöneliktir. Çalışmada karşılaştırmalı eğitim modeli uygulanmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında ilgili ülkelerin yabancı dil eğitimi programları incelenirken kullanılan genel karşılaştırma ölçütleri; yapı ve işleyiş, hedefler ve davranışlar, içerik ve müfredat, ölçme ve değerlendirmedir. Araştırmada nitel veri toplama yöntemlerinden doküman incelemesi kullanılmış ve veriler betimsel analiz yöntemiyle açıklanmıştır. İlgili ülkelerin 2024 yılında English Proficiency Index’ten (EPI) aldıkları dereceler doğrultusunda yabancı dil eğitiminin ve öğretmen yetiştirme politikalarının mevcut durumu analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda Hollanda’nın yabancı dil eğitimine en erken başladığı, Norveç ve Hollanda’da eğitim programlarında esneklik sağlandığı, bunun yanı sıra Singapur ve Türkiye’de ise merkezi bir sistemin uygulandığı ortaya konmuştur. Öğretmen yetiştirmede ise Türkiye dışında tüm ülkelerin öğretmenlik uygulaması dersine çok daha fazla zaman ayırdığı görülmüştür. Ele alınan ülkeler üzerine yapılan araştırma sonucu doğrultusunda EPI testinden başarılı sonuçlar elde eden Hollanda, Singapur ve Norveç eğitim sistemlerinden yola çıkılarak Türkiye’de ilköğretim yabancı dil eğitimi ve İngilizce öğretmen yetiştirme programları için çeşitli öneriler geliştirilmiştir. Bu yönüyle çalışma, yabancı dil politikalarının iyileştirilmesine katkı sağlayabilecek karşılaştırmalı bir eğitim analizi niteliği taşımaktadır.

Foreign Language Education and Foreign Language Teacher Training Policies: A Comparison of Türkiye, Singapore, Norway and the Netherlands

Öz

This study comparatively examines the primary school foreign language education curricula and English teacher education systems of Türkiye, Singapore, Norway and the Netherlands, and aims to identify the similarities and differences among these countries’ systems. The study seeks to understand the reasons for Türkiye’s low level of foreign language proficiency and draw implications from the practices of countries that achieve success at the international level. The study adopts a comparative education research model. Within the scope of the research, the general comparison criteria used to examine the foreign language education curricula of the selected countries include structure and administration, objectives and learning outcomes, content and curriculum, and assessment and evaluation. The study employs document analysis as a qualitative data collection method, and the data are analyzed using descriptive analysis. The study analyzes the current state of foreign language education and teacher education policies in the selected countries based on their rankings in the 2024 English Proficiency Index (EPI). The findings indicate that the Netherlands introduces foreign language education at the earliest stage, while Norway and the Netherlands provide flexibility in their education curricula. In contrast, Singapore and Türkiye implement centralized education systems. With regard to teacher education, the study finds that all countries except Türkiye allocate significantly more time to teaching practicum courses. Based on the findings obtained from the examined countries, the study develops several recommendations for primary school foreign language education and English teacher education programs in Türkiye, drawing on the education systems of the Netherlands, Singapore, and Norway, which achieve high performance in the EPI. In this respect, the study constitutes a comparative education analysis that contributes to the improvement of foreign language policies.
