Produktbeschreibung
Writing in foreign language requires a complex cognitive task, including generating ideas by critical thinking. In traditional classrooms teachers generally focus on the final products but focus on form, accuracy and disregard what is going on in the minds of learners. Hence, writing becomes a monotonous and a dull. In addition, cognitive, productive, and communicative strategies in writing have been ignored in traditional classrooms. In this study first the theory related to brain-based learning has been discussed. Some brain-based writing techniques have been developed to improve writing skills of the Intermediate pre-service English Language teachers in the Department of Foreign Language Education at Ondokuz May s University through a case study. The devised techniques have been carried out in both day and evening groups. The findings indicate that the students have developed a positive attitude towards the brain-based activities. Therefore, it may be claimed that these brain-based writing techniques can be especially useful to professionals in language teaching. It is believed that the study will shed a light upon English Language Teaching practitioners and the researchers.
