Abstract:

The purpose of the study is to explore whether digital narrative has an impact on the worry about writing for students who learn Turkish as a foreign language. The research is designed in accordance with the "pre-test and final-test control group" model, which is a semi-experimental pattern. The research study group is made up of foreign nationals at B1 level students studying at Harran University TÖMER. In the study, 2 classes were selected at the B1 level that were studied in TÖMER. These classes are divided into trial and control groups through unreflective assignment. The study was conducted with a total of 40 students, including 21 experimental groups and 19 control groups. The research based on digital stories lasted ten weeks. The application began from level B1 and continued until the end of level B2. The data of the study was collected with the "Writing Worry Scale" prepared by Shen and Boylu (2017) for those who learn Turkish as a foreign language. In the data analysis of the study, a t-test was performed to evaluate writing anxiety and a two-way variance analysis test for mixed measurements. In the analysis of the data, the SPSS 23.0 package program was used. The research resulted in the fact that the writing concern of the experimental and control group students was a significant difference in the benefit of the experimental group according to the final test scores.
