Language practice with multimedia supported web-based grammar revision material Baturay, Meltem Huri; Daloğlu, Ayşegül; Yıldırım, İbrahim Soner (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2010-09-01) The aim of this study was to investigate the perceptions of elementary-level English language learners towards web-based, multimedia-annotated grammar learning. WEBGRAM, a system designed to provide supplementary web-based grammar revision material, uses audio-visual aids to enrich the contextual presentation of grammar and allows learners to revise target grammatical structures using interactive exercises such as gap-filling, combo-box and drag-and-drop exercises. This study gathered quantitative data on l...
English skills needed for graduate study in the US: Multiple perspectives Seferoğlu, Gölge (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2001-07-05) This paper reports on a study of needs analysis conducted with Turkish government-sponsored students who are studying towards master’s or doctoral degrees in the US and with students who attended a specific language program in Ankara, Turkey before they started graduate programs in the US.

Language learning from the perspective of nonlinear dynamic systems Hohenberger, Annette Edeltraud; Peltzer-Karpf, Annemarie (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2009-01-01) This article outlines a nonlinear dynamic systems approach to language learning on the basis of developmental cognitive neuroscience. Language learning, on this view, is a process of experience-dependent shaping and selection of broadly defined domain-general and domain-specific genetic predispositions. The central concept of development is (neuro) cognitive,e growth in terms of self-organization. Linguistic structure-building is synergetic and emergent insofar as the acquisition of a critical mass of eleme...
Language learning in conflictual contexts: a study of Turkish Cypriot adolescents learning Greek in Cyprus Tum, Danyal Oztas; Kunt, Naciye; Kunt, Mehmet (Informa UK Limited, 2016-05-03) The Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot communities in Cyprus have been divided for the last five decades.

Findings revealed that students studying Greek (experimental group) report having more positive attitudes towards Greek, its culture, and speakers and are more motivated to s...
