Özet:

 


This study examined the effectiveness of data-driven learning (DDL), explicit instruction and these two

methods combined in teaching verb+noun (V+N) collocations to advanced Turkish learners of English.

Recognition accuracy of V+N collocations was measured along with participants’ judgment about the

acceptability of these collocations. It also explored the opinions of learners about using corpus in learning

V+N collocations. Quantitative data were analyzed via a one-way independent analysis of variance and

descriptive statistics. Results revealed a statistically significant difference between the three groups in

their recognition accuracy of V+N collocations. While the Explicit-Instruction (EI) Group and the

Combined (C) Group scored significantly higher than the Data-Driven Learning (D) Group, the means of

the EI-Group and C-Group did not significantly differ. With respect to the judgment about the

acceptability of V+N collocations, the EI-Group significantly outperformed the D-Group; but the

difference between the EI-Group and the C-Group; or between the C-Group and the D-Group was not

statistically significant. The questionnaire data showed that the participants found the instruction with














the use of corpus more useful and effective for learning V+N collocations than instruction without
