Özet:

The aim of this research is to determine the effect of writing skills training with weblog on the writing skills of B2 level students learning Turkish as a foreign language. The main problem of researching for this purpose is: Is there a meaningful difference between the writing skills of the students who are given the writing skills training with weblog and the writing skills of the students who are not given this training with weblog at B2 level? In the mixed-research design study, pre-test and post-test control group semi-experimental design was used for the quantitative part. In the qualitative part, opinions of students about differentiated teaching were taken. The study group consisted of 28 students at B2 level who learned Turkish at İnönü University Turkish Education Center in spring semester of 2016-2017 academic year. Quantitative data were analyzed by SPSS program and qualitative data were analyzed by descriptive analysis. As a result of the research, the weblog applied to the experimental group was found to be effective in improving the writing skills of the students. It was determined that the scores of the students in the experimental group were significantly different from the writing skill activities in the Yunus Emre Institute Turkish Instruction Set B2 Course Book and the writing skills scores of the students who were given writing education. The qualitative data of the research revealed that students found blogging fun and creative, and that students participating in the blog project would continue to write blogs later.
