The effect of 4+1 planned writing and evaluation model on poetry writing skills

The main purpose of this research is to reveal the effect of the 4+1 Planned Writing and Evaluation Model (PYDM) on poetry writing skills. For this purpose, the model was used in writing poetry and the effect of the model on writing poetry was investigated. A mixed research method, in which quantitative and qualitative research methods were used together, was preferred in the research, and the explanatory sequential pattern of the mixed method was used. While the quantitative dimension of the research was conducted in a pre-test - post-test experimental and control group semi-experimental design, the qualitative dimension was carried out with a semi-structured interview suitable for the interview method, which is one of the qualitative research designs. In the quantitative dimension, there are 20 students from the 5th, 6th and 7th grades of two secondary schools selected according to the probability sampling method, and 120 in the experimental group and 120 in the control group. In the qualitative dimension of the research, 30 students were included among the experimental group participants according to purposeful sampling. The data obtained as a result of the analysis of the quantitative and qualitative data of the research were interpreted respectively. In the study, it was concluded that writing poetry with the 4+1 Planned Writing and Evaluation Model had a statistically significant effect on the poetry writing skills of middle school students and their attitudes towards writing poetry depending on their writing skills. The findings showed that 4+1 PYDM positively affected the poetry writing skills of students. According to the findings, the stages of PYDM also had positive reflections on the students' poetry writing. It was understood with the qualitative results that the study helped students gain knowledge on subjects such as poetry knowledge, poetry reading, and the characteristics of the poetry language. The results showed that the writing studies carried out according to 4+1 PYDM were effective in developing the poetry writing skills of students.
