İkinci/Yabancı Dil Öğretiminde Sadeleştirilmiş Metin Sorunları Üzerine

Dil öğretim sürecinde, metin oluşturma konusunda temelyaklaşımlardan biri metni, öğrenicinin düzeyi bakımındandaha anlaşılır biçimde sunmaktır. Okuma malzemeleri, yadoğrudan bu amaca uygun üretilmekte ya da seçilen özgün(authentic) malzemeler düzeylere veya konulara uygun haldesunulmak üzere değiştirim (modification) yoluyla hazırlanmaktadır. Dil öğretiminde metin değiştirim türlerinden birisadeleştirme (simplification)'dir. Bu çalışmada, sadeleştirilmesürecine hakim olan yaklaşımlar ve sadeleştirmenin bilimselaşamalarına dair önemli görülen noktalar, belirli sorular yoluyla ele alınmaktadır. Konu, bu alanda ortaya konulmuş olançeşitli temel kaynaklardan hareketle değerlendirilmekte; buyolla da ilgili alanda çalışma yapmak isteyenlere temel bir literatür sunulmaktadır

On Problems Related to the Use of Simplified Texts in Second/Foreign Language Teaching

In the process of language teaching, one of the main approaches is to present the text in a way that is more compre- hensible in terms of the learner's level. Reading materials are directly produced for this purpose, or selected authentic mate- rials are prepared through modification in order to make these materials suitable for students' levels or course content. One of the methods of text modification in language teaching is simplification. This study discusses approaches that deal with the process of simplification and significant points considered to be related to the scientific stages of simplification. The subject is evaluated through the primary publications in this field, and in this way the basic literature is introduced for people who would like to do further research on this topic.
