Özet:

 


In today’s globalized era, English has become a lingua franca serving as a medium of communication for effective communication between people of different languages.  Variationist language programs have been designed to develop English language competence of students to the level sufficient to pursue successfully in their career or academic life. However, to be able to teach English effectively, the identification and evaluation of students’ needs should be taken into consideration while designing language programs. In the light of these observations, the present study aims to evaluate whether the Language Preparatory Program designed for English Language and Literature and Translation departments has met the students’ language and learning needs. To this end, 64 preparatory students constitute the working group of this research.  The quantitative data were obtained through a needs analysis questionnaire and the qualitative data were collected by means of semi-structured interviews. The findings of the study revealed significant implications in relation to the evaluation of the Language Preparatory Program based on the language and learning needs of the preparatory students.
