Prof. Dr. Selahattin GELBAL Director of Graduate School of Educational Sciences i Abstract This study uncovers an unexplored phenomenon of “Assuming Learner Behavior” (ALB) emerging within the context of testing and evaluation course in an English Language Teaching (ELT) program by using Conversation Analysis (CA). It involves the analysis of video-recorded classroom interaction (12 hours) of fourth year ELT students and an ELT professor in a university in Ankara, Turkey. Using CA, this study has investigated how the phenomenon of ALB emerges in the classroom interaction of pre-service teachers during feedback and presentation sessions in the testing and evaluation course. Moreover, this study has explored the interactional functions of ALB in different sequential positions and how pre-service teachers’ orient to the different aspects of test items by means of ALBs. In addition, the analysis has indicated that ALB creates learning opportunities for pre-service teachers in developing their testing and evaluation knowledge and skills. In light of these findings, this study provides insights into classroom interaction in a higher education context in general and has implications for L2 teacher education, classroom learning of pre-service teachers, and the development of testing and evaluation knowledge and skills. Keywords: classroom interaction, assuming learner behavior, English language teaching, testing and evaluation, L2 teacher education, conversation analysis ii Öz Bu çalışma, İngilizce Öğretmenliği programı ölçme ve değerlendirme dersi bağlamında, daha önce araştırılmamış olan “Öğrenci Davranışı Varsayımı” (ÖDV) olgusunu Konuşma Analizi (KÇ) kullanarak ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda Türkiye’nin Ankara ilinde bulunan bir devlet üniversitesinin İngilizce Öğretmenliği ölçme ve değerlendirme dersini almakta olan son sınıf öğrencileri ile dersi vermekte olan profesörün sınıf etkileşiminin (12 saat) video kayıtlarının analizi yapılmıştır. KÇ yöntemi ile bu çalışmada ÖDV olgusunun, ölçme ve değerlendirme dersinde geri dönüt ve sunum oturumları sırasında öğretmen adaylarının sınıf etkileşiminde nasıl ortaya çıktığı araştırılmıştır. Buna ek olarak, bu çalışma, ÖDV’nin farklı dizisel pozisyonlardaki etkileşimsel işlevlerini ve öğretmen adaylarının ÖDV'ler aracılığıyla test ögelerinin farklı boyutlarına nasıl yöneldiklerini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Ayrıca, analizler sonucunda ÖDV'nin öğretmen adayları için ölçme ve değerlendirme bilgi ve becerilerini geliştirmeleri açısından öğrenme fırsatları oluşturduğu gözlenmiştir. Bu bulguların ışığında, bu çalışma, bir yükseköğretim kurumu bağlamında sınıf etkileşiminin anlaşılmasına katkı sağlamakta ve öğretmen eğitimi, öğretmen adaylarının sınıfiçi öğrenmesi ile ölçme ve değerlendirme bilgi ve becerilerinin geliştirilmesi için uygulamalar sunmaktadır. Anahtar sözcükler: sınıf söylemi, öğrenci davranışını varsayma, İngilizce öğretmenliği, ölçme ve değerlendirme, öğretmen eğitimi, konuşma çözümlemesi iii Acknowledgements Completing this thesis has been a surprising and yet informative journey for me as I have never thought we would go through such a hard and tiring process as this pandemic. Still, I could manage to go through this process and complete this work with the help and support of many precious people.

  • Using Turnitin to Provide Feedback on L2 Writers' Texts
    The Electronic Journal for English as a Second Language August 2016 – Volume 20, Number 2 Using Turnitin to Provide Feedback on L2 Writers’ Texts * * * On the Internet * * * Ilka Kostka Northeastern University Boston, MA, USA <[email protected]> Veronika Maliborska Northeastern University Boston, MA, USA <[email protected]> Abstract Second language (L2) writing instructors have varying tools at their disposal for providing feedback on students’ writing, including ones that enable them to provide written and audio feedback in electronic form. One tool that has been underexplored is Turnitin, a widely used software program that matches electronic text to a wide range of electronic texts found on the Internet and in the program’s massive repository. While Turnitin is primarily known for detecting potential plagiarism, we believe that instructors can make use of two features of the program (GradeMark tools and originality checker) to provide formative and summative feedback on students’ drafts. In this article, we use screenshots to illustrate how we have leveraged Turnitin to provide feedback to undergraduate L2 writers about their writing and use of sources. We encourage instructors who have access to Turnitin to explore the different features of this tool and its potential to create opportunities for learning. Introduction Educators have long been concerned about plagiarism, and developments in technology and the Internet over the past two decades have further complicated the issue. One way that institutions have responded to these concerns is by purchasing matched text detection software, which is often referred to as plagiarism detection software. Simply defined, matched text detection software matches text to other electronic text to determine how similar the texts are to each other.

  • POL 493/POL 2893: Writing About Politics Thursday 10- 12 Pm in TC 24 Office Hours 1-2 Pm (Sid Smith 3118)
    POL 493/POL 2893: Writing About Politics Thursday 10- 12 pm in TC 24 Office Hours 1-2 pm (Sid Smith 3118) Email: [email protected] This workshop is focused on writing about politics. I use the term politics in a broad sense to include issues about social justice, identity (race, gender, sexuality, and class), and the reproduction or disruption of power. All students will be asked to complete two works of creative nonfiction (genres include personal essays, profiles, observational or descriptive essays, argumentative or idea-based essays, extended book reviews, and literary journalism). Nonfiction aims to provide true information about the world. Creative nonfiction differs from scholarly writing insofar as it also aims to interest, inform, persuade, and entertain readers, often all at once. A successful essay moves between the concrete particulars (character, place, conflict) and the general (theory, principle, policy). Writing about politics requires knowledge about politics and also skill at writing. This course builds on knowledge you have acquired throughout your coursework and helps you to communicate it to a broader audience. A workshop has a distinctive format, and this class will be very different from a seminar or lecture course. Attendance and active participation are extremely important. You should think of yourself as a participant in collective project that aims to help each member to improve as a writer. You must be prepared to share your writing and to provide other students with feedback on their writing. Readings: All readings will be either available through course reserves or will be provided as hard copies in class.

Completing all ESL and lower-division writing requirements is prerequisite. The course carries four academic units and may be taken pass / no pass unless your department requires that you take it for a letter grade. Making and Breaking Chains : American popular culture is obsessed with prison; shows like Beyond Scared Straight and Jail bubble up alongside home improvement programming, while Lady Gaga uses the prison as her personal runway. At the same time, we continue to traffic in the memories of slavery, most recently via the Adidas "shackle" shoe incident and the Kanye/Jay Z collaboration, No Church in the Wild. So what is it about these two forms of bondage that capture the popular imagination, and what is the relationship between them? Ironically, looking these forms of bondage becomes the basis for defining that most cherished of American values: freedom. This course addresses how freedom, slavery, and the prison have been represented by writers working in diverse genres in order to ask how—and why—the philosophical, sociological, and (popular) cultural representations of freedom and bondage are constructed in particular ways. Historically, claims about what it means to be free -- or even human -- have been made through discourses about enslavement and imprisonment; some have used bondage as a trope to explore philosophical or artistic projects, while others have used it to interrogate the assumptions of various political and economic paradigms.
