Abstract

Stories are considered an essential part of children’s lives and have been pedagogically integral to the courses. This study focuses on how students of English Language Teaching (ELT) program perceive the world of stories for young learners. Within the framework of study, stories prepared in the digital form using Moviemaker, multimedia authoring program, were uploaded to the Facebook course group. Collected videos have been analyzed following the content analysis method and coded seeking answers about the story topic, characters and reflected moral values. The results revealed that in their digital stories, ELT students highlighted “friendship” based on helping and supporting others followed by “philanthropy” while the heroes were largely characterized as male children or animals. The results could be of help in interpreting children’s world from the perspective of ELT students

Özet

Hikayeler çocukların hayatlarının önemli bir parçası ve derslerin de pedagojik bir bileşenidir. Bu çalışma İngiliz Dili Eğitimi bölümü öğrencilerinin çocuk hikayelerine bakışına odaklanmaktadır. Çalışma çerçevesinde, Moviemaker programı ile hazırlanan dijital hikayeler Facebook'ta ders için oluşturulan gruba yüklenmiştir. Bu videolar içerik analizi çerçevesinde incelenerek kodlanmış ve hikayelerin konusu, karakterleri ve yansıttığı ahlaki değerler açısından incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonuçlarında dijital hikayelerde birbiriyle yardımlaşma ve desteğin öne çıktığı, "arkadaşlık" ve "iyilikseverlik" kavramlarının vurgulandığı, hikaye kahramanlarının da büyük ölçüde erkek çocuklar ya da hayvanlar olduğu görülmüştür. Çalışma öğretmen adaylarının bakış açısına göre çocukların dünyasını algılamaya yardımcı olacaktır
