Wiki‐Ed Poetry”: Transforming Preservice Teachers’ Preconceptions About Poetry and Poetry Teaching
Year 2021, Volume: 9 Issue: 1, 262 - 274, 30.01.2021Abstract
As instructors who prepare aspiring teachers to teach English, we find that our students are often intimidated by the idea of teaching poetry. We also find that it is the most common genre that they are asked to teach in their field placements in the schools. We undertook this project, which brings together beginning teachers in Canada and England on a wiki, to explore some of the tensions they felt about teaching poetry.

Wiki-Ed’de Şiir: Öğretmen Adaylarının Şiir ve Şiir Öğretimi Hakkındaki Ön Yargılarını Değiştirmek
Year 2021, Volume: 9 Issue: 1, 262 - 274, 30.01.2021Abstract
İngilizce öğretmek için hevesli olan öğretmenleri yetiştiren eğitmenler olarak, öğrencilerimizin genel olarak şiir öğretme fikrinden korktuğunu görüyoruz. Ayrıca, şiirin onların gönderildikleri okullarda kendi alanlarında öğretmeleri istenen en yaygın tür olduğunu da görüyoruz. Kanada ve İngiltere'deki mesleğe yeni başlayan öğretmenleri bir Wiki'de bir araya getiren bu projeye onların şiir öğretme konusunda hissettikleri bazı gerilimleri araştırmak için giriştik. Projeye dahil olan 56 öğretmen adayı tarafından ifade edilen yedi önyargı belirledik: Öğrenciler şiiri sıkıcı bulmakta ve ona direnç göstermekteydiler; okul hayatları boyunca öğretmen adaylarının tecrübe ettiği şekliyle şiir seçkinci ve çoğu zaman erişilemezdi; şiir çoğu sınıfta yüzeysel olarak vardır ve zaman kısıtlamaları söz konusu olduğunda İngilizce programlarından kolayca çıkartılabilen bir süs olarak kabul edilir; öğrenciler tarafından yazılan şiiri değerlendirmek zordur; analize aşırı vurgu yapmak şiir öğretiminin çoğu zaman merkezinde yer alır; ve şiir tek başına yapılan bir sanattır. Bu makalenin geri kalanında bu ön yargıların etrafındaki bazı yorumları ve öğretmen adaylarının sözlerinin kendilerinin yaptığı öğretim ve genel olarak şiir öğretimi üzerindeki olası etkilerini ele alacağız.
