The study was conducted with the preparatory class students at the Department of English Language Teaching of the Faculty of Education of Ondokuz Mayıs University in Turkey. The learners were assigned to experimental and control groups randomly. The study was employed non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design where the number of subjects was a total of 36.

Bu çalışmada okuma stratejilerinden anlamlı gruplandırma stratejisinin İngilizce okuduğunu anlamaya etkisi incelenmiştir. Çalışma, Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi, Eğitim Fakültesi, İngiliz Dili Eğitimi Ana Bilim Dalı hazırlık sınıfı öğrencileriyle yürütülmüştür. Öğrenciler deney ve kontrol gruplarına eş olasılıkla (random) atanmıştır. Toplam 36 öğrenciyle yürütülen çalışmada, denk olmayan kontrol gruplu öntest-sontest deseni kullanılmıştır. Deney grubunda okuma stratejilerinden anlamlı gruplandırma yöntemi işe koşulmuş, control grubunda ise geleneksel yöntemle öğretim yapılmıştır. Sonuçlar anlamlı gruplandırma stratejisinin İngilizce okuduğunu anlama üzerinde etkili olduğunu göstermektedir.
