Abstract:
Inclusive education is a prominent practice in our country in recent
years. It is predicted that it will contribute to the education of particularly
disadvantaged individuals. Within the scope of the study, qualitative
results were tried to be presented through interviews on the expectations
of teachers from different branches of the inclusive education with the
theme of teaching Turkish as a second language from the course and how
the education of foreign students should be. 21 teachers participated in
the study and a semi-structured interview form was applied. It has been
determined that teachers do not see foreign students as a problem, but
suspect that they can be beneficial to them. They also stated that foreign
students cause problems in the classroom because they do not know
Turkish language and culture. It was also determined that the textbooks
should be reconsidered according to foreign students and that there should
be a certain education program for teaching basic language skills.
