Özet:

One of the effective ways to express feelings, thoughts and dreams is writing. When taking into account the writing achievements in the Turkish Teaching Program, it is expected that a student who graduates from high school will be able to express himself in an effective and correct way in writing. It is necessary that the person can better express himself in writing and express his opinions or thoughts on a more solid basis. One of these elements is the development of thinking techniques. If students need to be able to identify the techniques to develop the thought used in the texts they read, the ability to use these techniques in their own writing studies enrichs the narrative and ensures the effective use of the language. In other words, the student should be able to use their knowledge on the techniques of thinking development in both the texts he reads and writes. The purpose of this research is to determine the levels of high school students identifying the techniques of developing the thought in the texts and the conditions of using the techniques of developing the thought they apply during their written narratives and to reveal their status according to variables such as success score, gender, frequency of reading books. The study group is made up of 110th-class students studying in the Ayrancı Yatılı District High School located in Karaman or Ayrancı district. They used the most “comparation” in their writings while the most “use of numerical data” was correctly identified at the level of identification of the techniques of thinking development. The levels of ability to identify the techniques of thinking development have seen a significant difference in the benefit of girls students. Students are able to identify the techniques of developing their thinking and the use of them in their written narratives according to the success score of the Turkish lesson, and the conclusion is that the students with the Turkish lesson score 5 are more successful in the level of identification and writing than others. The levels of students’ ability to identify the techniques of thinking development show that there is a significant difference in reading habits for 21 and older readers per year.

The purpose of this research is to determine the levels of secondary school students in detecting idea development techniques included in the texts and how they use idea-development techniques which they employ in written expressions, and to reveal their conditions according to variables such as pass marks in Turkish language course, gender, frequency of reading books. The study population of the research consists of 110 grade eight students studying at Ayrancı Regional Boarding Secondary School in the district of Ayrancı in Karaman province. In terms of levels in detecting idea development techniques, the students detected “benefitting from numeric data” as correct mostly, whereas they mostly used “comparison” in their writings. It was observed that there was a considerable difference on behalf of female students in terms of their levels in detecting idea development techniques. When the students’ conditions based on detecting idea development techniques and using them in their written expressions are evaluated according to pass mark in Turkish language course, it has been concluded that those students whose course grades are 5 are more successful than others in terms of detecting and writing levels. In terms of reading habits, levels of students in detecting idea development techniques show that there is a considerable difference on behalf of those students who read 21 and more books per year.
