Özet (Çeviri)

Since the introduction of computers into language teaching in the late 1960s, there have been many developments in CALL applications and techniques. There have been arguments for and against the use of computers as an aid to language teaching since the first applications of CALL. There appears to be one point on which all researchers on CALL agree: The most important concern in using computers in language teaching is that the critical design issues should be well defined and decisions within each design issue should be taken according to the needs of the users and the goals of the institution. Starting from the 1 990s, Turkish Higher Education institutions have been involved in CALL. Though limited, a number of institutions, mostly private ones, have established CALL labs as an aid to language teaching. Since CALL applications are expensive and local experience is limited, research on how to make most effective use of CALL labs is critical. Research on CALL in Turkey has focused to this point on the design of educational software. Research is now needed on implementation issues of CALL in Turkey. This research study focused on the critical design issues to be considered when establishing a CALL lab in order to assist academic decision makers in Turkey. The particularaudience is the administrators of the Preparatory School of English for Post Graduate Students, Karadeniz Technical University. The study aimed at answering a number of research questions regarding critical design issues in respect to the establishment of a CALL lab. The first question was to determine the design issues themselves. The second question was to determine how various national and international CALL labs dealt with the design decisions and how users have reacted to these design decisions. Students' reactions were examined by means of a student questionnaire focusing on the design characteristics of CALL labs. A total of seventy five intermediate and upper intermediate level students from Koç University and Bilkent University were given questionnaires. Interviews with Turkish and foreign administrators of CALL labs and CALL lab staff were done to examine how design decisions were made in various institutions. In Turkey Bilkent University, Babkent University, Koç University and the Turkish Military Academy were chosen as representative samples. Three administrators and five CALL lab staff were interviewed. International sampling was done through interviews done by means of e-mail correspondence. The foreign samples were Oregon State University, Michigan State University and University at Albany, State University of NewYork. Design issues found critical in CALL were determined to be choosing staff, training teachers, staff and students, scheduling for use, finding adequate budget, selecting equipment, establishing links with users, maintenance and obtaining appropriate space and location. It was found that administrators and students agreed on the necessity of having a CALL lab in a language teaching institution. It was also found that certain design decisions such as theselection of software, directly effect the attitudes of students towards the CALL lab. In their task of designing their lab decision makers should pay equal attention to all the design issues in order to establish a highly used CALL lab.
