An Examination On The Personality In The Books Used In Turkish Language Teaching As A Foreign Language


The aim of the study is to determine the personalities in the textbooks used in teaching Turkish as a foreign language and to reveal how often and how these persons are handled in the course books. Document analysis technique was used in the study. In the study, “Seven Climate and Istanbul Turkish for foreigners” sets were selected as samples. As a result of the research, it was found that 193 personalities were included in various categories such as athletes, artists, writers, poets, poets, clergymen and statesmen, 97 of them in Istanbul 164 and in the Seven Climate. In A1, A2, B1 and B2 levels, in the Seven Climate books, the rate of giving and the way of giving is higher than that of Istanbul, but in the C1 and C2 levels, the rate of giving the figures of both books is very close to each other. When an evaluation is made on the way personalities are given, it is seen that 66 (64,02%) of the personalities in the Istanbul book are given as names, while 67 (40,85%) are given as names in the Seven Climate. When it is looked at the rate of the personalities given in the text, it is to remark that 17 (16.49%) of the Istanbul book and 38 (23.17%) of the seven climate have the characteristics of the personalities. When it is looked at the proportion of the personalities processed in the context of the text, it is seen that there are 20 (19.4%) people in Istanbul and 59 (35.97%) people in Seven Climate. When both studies are evaluated together, it is concluded that the relevant sets do not include personalities with a systematic approach.
