The attitudes of English preparatory school students toward cooperative language learning

The main aim of this research is to reveal the perceptions of preparatory class students towards collaborative language learning (CLL). In this context, the study is designed to determine the attitudes of university preparatory class students towards CLL, examine the impact of CLL usage on learning styles, and measure how their participation in CLL activities is shaped. Additionally, within the scope of the research, the goal is to assess the tendencies of female and male students towards collaborative work and determine if there is a difference in these tendencies. Furthermore, the study focuses on understanding the effects of the collaborative learning approach on the perspectives of female and male students and evaluates whether these effects create a significant difference in terms of the school year. In this framework, the research is conducted to deeply understand the perceptions of preparatory class students towards CLL and comprehensively analyze the impact of the collaborative learning approach on student experiences. It is expected that the findings of the research will contribute significantly to understanding the effectiveness of collaborative methods in the language learning process.
