Learning a second language is not to learn just grammar structures, rules and words. Learning a foreign language is to solve the nation’s cultural codes, to know its cultural treasury in detailed and to name this in context integrating with basic language rules. Moral and material values of a nation take place in language. The factors that have taken place in the language are transmitted via the language. In this respect in language teaching, cultural transmission constitutes an important issue. In foreign language teaching, texts play important role in transposition of cultural codes of the source language. Firstly including textbooks, texts in them are major transmitters and tutorial of the culture.( Erdem, Gün, Karateke,2015: 8) For a person’s learning a foreign language and using it effectively, she needs to know items of the language. Just knowing the structure of that language is not possible to use it effectively. The language is the most important social part that reflects the culture of a society. Based on this reality, we can say that the way to learn the language in the strict sense is to know the history of the community that speaks the language, traditions, customs, the lifestyle.

To that end, many researchers states that it should be taught the lessons and prepared the textbooks for this purpose in their studies. About the context of textbooks, investigating whether there is sufficient text or not have been many studies on the transmission of culture. For instance, Ülker(2007) in the example of “Hittite Textbooks”, in the study of ‘An Analyst and Evaluator Look to the Cultural Transmission Process in Teaching Turkish as Foreign Language’, he studied in the subject area, kind of text and visuality of books and concluded that those books have quality to succeed in Cultural Transmission with the criteria discussed.Researchers that studies on Cultural Transmission in Teaching Turkish to foreigners, they are agreed on for more permanent and effective learning besides grammar features, explaining the parts of Turkish culture. In accordance with this purpose, transmission of oral culture works continuing their existence

Özet

Günümüz dünyasında ikinci dil / yabancı dil büyük bir önem kazanmıştır. İnsanlar hangi sektörde çalışıyor olurlarsa olsunlar bir yabancı dil hatta ikinci bir yabancı dil öğrenme ihtiyacını duymaktadırlar. Bir yabancı dil bilmenin ayrıcalık olmaktan çıkıp, herkesin sahip olması gereken bir özellik olduğu günümüzde yabancı dil eğitiminin önemi de artmıştır (Göçer, 2009: 28). Türkiye'nin gelişen teknolojiyle birlikte, son dönemde birçok açıdan dünyaya açıldığı bilinen bir gerçektir. Bu açıdan bakıldığında Türkçe'nin yabancı bir dil olarak öğretilmesine yönelik çalışmaların önemi ve gerekliliği büyük oranda artmıştır. Dil, kültürün en önemli koruyucusu ve aktarıcısıdır. Bu gerçeklikten yola çıkılarak, yabancılara Türkçe öğretiminde kültür aktarımı hakkında yapılmış lisansüstü çalışmalar ve yayınlanmış makalelerin analizinin yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın yapısı gereği meta-analiz yöntemi seçilmiştir. Yapmış olduğumuz bu çalışma ile amacımız, yabancılara Türkçe öğretiminde kültür aktarımına yönelik yapılan çalışmaların değerlendirilip, kültür aktarımının önemini ortaya koyarak, bu konuda yapılacak çalışmalara katkı sunmaktır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda yapılan taramalar sonucunda, tam metni erişime açık olan lisansüstü çalışmalar ve yayınlanmış makalelerin dış yapı ve içerik analizleri yapılmıştır. Çalışmada YÖK Ulusal Tez Merkezi'nde tam metnine ulaşılabilen toplam 7 yüksek lisans tezi ve elektronik ortamda, taramayla elde edilen 15 adet makale incelenmiştir. Sonuç olarak, yabancılara Türkçe öğretiminde kültür aktarımı konusu ile ilgili çalışma yapan araştırmacılar, dilimizin daha kalıcı ve etkili öğrenilebilmesi için dilin gramer özellikleri yanında, kültürümüze ait ögelerin de anlatılması hususunda hemfikirdirler. Türk kültürünün en özgün şekilde varlığını sürdürdüğü sözlü kültür ürünlerimizin aktarılması önem arz etmektedir. Bu noktada, ders kitaplarında yer alan metinlerin kültürün asıl aktarıcısı olduğu gerçekliğine dikkat çekilerek, ders kitaplarına alınacak metinlerin seçiminde daha özenli olunmasına vurgu yapılmıştır
