Türkçe Eğitiminde Yakın Okuma Stratejisinden Yararlanma Üzerine Bir Çalışma (Bir Etkinlik Örneği)
A Study on Utilizing the Close Reading Strategy in Turkish Education (An Example of Activity)

Summary/Abstract: One of the strategies to understand text recently proposed in language and literature education is close reading. Regarding this strategy, it can be said that there is a theoretical and practical deficiency in Turkish textbooks and Turkish Language Teaching Program (2018). Close reading is a strategy that helps the student become competent in many ways such as critical thinking, examining a difficult text from an academic point of view, and questioning details. Therefore, in Turkish education, teachers and students should be made aware of close reading and opportunities should be created for the internalization of this strategy. The main purpose of this study, which is designed with the descriptive survey model, is to concretize how to use the close reading strategy in Turkish education with an activity draft. For this purpose, a close reading-based activity was prepared about the story called “İhtiyar Çilingir” which is above the level of 8th grade students and needed a guide. The sample activity aimed to improve the student's summarizing skills. A variety of activity drafts, structured by close reading and with different goals (such as understanding the track, understanding the narrative components) can be prepared. Then, these activities can be implemented in the classroom and the effectiveness of the close reading strategy can be evaluated from different perspectives.
