Abstract
The peer instruction method has become an effective learning strategy at all educational levels. The peer instruction method developed by Mazur can be defined as a method in which participants actively participate in the educational process by discussing and helping each other in a peer group during the lesson. In the research, the subjects named “Communication and Media, Technological Developments” in the Harmoni 2 textbook were discussed. In this study, the effect of discussion on the answers of 24 8th-grade students in peer instruction techniques during the lesson was investigated. The application was carried out in Astana City Girls High School (BIL) in Kazakhstan in five weeks with 24 students who took Turkish lessons from Kazakh cognate students whose mother tongue was not Turkish. The data of 50 multiple choice concept test questions asked to the students in the course were analyzed. Data were analyzed using the independent t-test (p=.000) in the SPSS 21.0 program. Considering the results, it was observed that the discussion had an important effect on the transformation of the wrong answers given by the students to the concept test questions into correct answers.
