Türkçe ve Dil Eğitimi Araştırmaları

Edited by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Fatih Kana and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Yusuf Mete Elkıran, this book is a comprehensive academic work bringing together current research in the field of Turkish and language education. The work has been prepared with the perspective that language is not only a means of communication but also a cultural carrier. The book covers a wide range of topics, from theoretical examinations on the thought system and language genetics of the Turkish language to the reflections of compulsory themes (National Struggle, Atatürk, National Culture) in children's literature works. Furthermore, digitalization-focused studies such as the digital literacy self-efficacy of Turkish teacher candidates, teachers' views on technology use, and the role of artificial intelligence in education occupy a significant place in the work. Enriched with applied research such as the effect of methods used in teaching Turkish to foreigners on language learning speed and factors affecting the reading habits of middle school students, this book serves as a resource offering both theoretical knowledge and practical solutions for academics, teachers, and students.
