İngilizce öğretmenliğinde yaratıcı drama dersi için ders izlencesi önerisi

Öğretmenliğe bir performans sanatı olarak yaklaşan bu çalışma, 30 saatlik yaratıcı dramanın çalıştayına katılan 15 İngilizce öğretmen adayının öğretmenlik becerileri ve algıları üzerindeki etkilerini incelemektedir. Çalıştay öncesi ve sonrasında öğretmenlik becerilerin nasıl değiştiğini tespit etmek için gerçek bir sınıf ortamında video kaydına alınan birer ders anlatımları araştırmacı tarafından gözlenip değerlendirilmiştir. Kayıtlar üzerinden iki eğitimci daha öğretmenlik becerilerini değerlendirmiştir. Gözlemci notlarının MAXQDA programında yapılan içerik analizinin sonucunda katılımcıların tüm hedef becerilerinin, özellikle de beden dili, etkili atmosfer ve anlık karar verme becerilerinin geliştiğini göstermektedir. Ayrıca, her atölye sonu tuttukları yansıtıcı günlükler ve kısa tartışmaların da dahil olduğu drama ürünlerinin analizi, dramanın öğretimde kullanılması, drama atölyelerinin dizaynı ve video kayıtlı öğretim açısından pozitif görüşler ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bu sonuçlardan yola çıkarak İngilizce Öğretmenliği programlarının drama dersleri için ders izlencesi önerilmiştir.

A suggested syllabus for creative drama course in ELT

With an approach to teaching as a performing art, this study investigated the effects of creative drama on eightteaching skills and perceptions of 15 ELT (English Language Teaching) student teachers who took part in a 30-hour creative drama workshop. Their video-recorded teaching in a real classroom atmosphere was observed andevaluated by the researcher and two other trainers before and after the workshop to compare how their teachingskills changed based on the intervention. The results of the content analysis of observers notes on MAXQDAprogram showed that they improved all target teaching skills, but particularly body language, affectiveatmosphere, and spontaneous decision-making. Additionally, the content analysis of the reflections they keptafter each drama session and the drama products including brief discussions during the sessions revealed positiveperceptions on drama in teaching, design of drama sessions and video-recorded teaching. Based on these results,it was suggested that drama courses in ELT programs should be revisited.
