Numerious different materials are used in the process

of language teaching. One of those materials, and maybe

the most common used is language coursbook. As

there are more than one courbooks in the bazaar, their

evaluation and selection has become a phenomenon

and a huge literature has emerged. Among others Jeremy

Harmer, Alan Cunningsworth, Alan Tucker are there presentatives and pioneers of this field. In this study we have made an external

and an internal evaluation of a set of Kurmancî Kurdish coursbooks named Hînker

based on criteria by Cunningsworth. As results, we found that as a set of language

teaching coursebooks, Hînker has deficiencies in terms of language content,

language skills and teachers’ role, however it is sufficient in terms of non-lingustic

content such as social values and also in terms of methodology.

Öz

Di pêvajoya hînkirina zimanekî de gelek materyalên ji hev cuda tên bikaranîn. Ji

wan materyalan û bi îhtimaleke mezin yên herî zêde têne bikar anîn, hînkerên

zimanî ne. Ji ber ku di bazarê de ji yekê zêdetir hînkerên zimanî hene, êdî nirxandin

û hilbijartina wan bûye diyardeyeke aşkere û li ser nirxandin û hilbijartina hînkeran

lîteratureke têra xwe mezin û berfirah pêk hatiye. Ligel gelek zanyarên dî Jeremy

Harmer, Alan Cunningsworth, Alan Tucker wek nûner û pêşengên qada nirxandin

û hilbijartina hînkeran tên hesibandin. Di vê gotarê de me li gorî pîvanên Cunningsworth,

seteke hînkirina Kurdiya Kurmancî ya bi navê Hînker nirxandineke rûxalî

û hûrgilî pêk anî. Di encamê de me dît ku wek seta hînkirinê di naveroka zimanî,

çar şiyanwerî û rola mamosteyan de kêmasiyên Hînkerê

hene lê belê ji hinek aliyên wekî naveroka nezimanî û

nirxên civakî û metodolojîyê de Hînker serkeftî ye.
