Summary
The Industrial Revolution, which brought economic and technical developments, and the increase of trade and transportation opportunities have been influential in considering foreign language as a mean of communication, as well as spreading foreign language teaching (Dinçer, 2013). The aim of foreign language teaching in our country is not to enable Turkish citizens who have the same native language communicate with each other, but to communicate with the citizens of other countries In this way, the aim of foreign language teaching is to facilitate increasing of our country’s level in political, scientific, military, economic and social fields (Tok & Arıbaş, 2008, 206). The aim of foreign language teaching is to facilitate increasing of our country’s level in political, scientific, military, economic and social fields (Tok & Arıbaş, 2008, 206) For this reason, developed or developing countries are aware of the necessity of knowing foreign languages and they include foreign language courses in their curriculum (Er, 2006, 4). There are only a few studies that examined new approaches in foreign language teaching
