Immersion Programs in Turkey: An Evaluation by Students and Teachers.

Akunal, Zuhal

System, v20 n4 p517-29 Nov 1992

The effectiveness of content-based second language instruction at the university level in Turkey is examined. Results from questionnaire and observational data suggest that content-based second language instruction improves students' receptive skills but is not as successful in promoting an ability to engage in meaningful, communicative activities in English.
