Program description.
The M.A. program in ELT (English Language Teaching) introduces major theoretical and methodological issues in language learning/acquisition and teaching and provides students with a foundation in the theoretical and applied aspects of the field. The program strives to provide graduates with fieldwork skills in qualitative/quantitative research in the field of English Language Teaching and Learning.
Graduates of the program demonstrate awareness of theoretical and applied knowledge about contemporary approaches, methods and techniques related to the acquisition of English as a second/foreign language and (applied) linguistics for a comparative analysis of languages and cultures. They can successfully evaluate existing instructional programs, procedures, assessment practices, language teaching methods and techniques and make suggestions to improve existing ones, or analyze innovative theories, applications and tools, and conduct small-scale research to suggest new ones. While synthesizing, critically assessing, and improving theoretical and practical findings on contemporary research, graduates are expected to carry out research studies with a scientific point of view in order to meet the educational and empirical needs in national and international contexts with the aim of making contributions to the field.
The graduates of the English Language Teaching M.A. Program can work as instructors, language teaching specialists and research assistants at national and international educational institutions.
Possible Fields of Study
Second language Acquisition, Materials/curriculum/instructional design, Language teaching methodology, ICTs and ELT, Psycholinguistic and Socio-cultural aspects of language learning, (Applied) Linguistics

Thesis Topics Related to Language Learning and Acquisition
ESL Topics for a Research Paper
Language learning and acquisition is an excellent potential thesis topic for students working towards a master's degree in English, Linguistics, Education or English as a Second Language (ESL). It is also a good choice for seniors who have opted for the thesis option, especially those in honors programs. Specific topic choices are plentiful, ranging from general areas like developmental language acquisition in children to demographic studies of international students in college.
One of the best areas of specialization to begin looking for topics for the thesis is has to do with theories on how children learn language. Most research in this area will fit well into the one or two semester model of thesis research and writing. Students will find a fascinating array of possibilities, like best practices for language facilitation among prekindergarten children, or the role of music in the developmental stages of speech and language training. The latter topic could even lend itself to studies of children with autism disorders. You could also concentrate on a specific demographic, such as fifth-grade English language learners.
Another excellent possibility for thesis topics would be to concentrate your research in a technology-related area. For example, you could examine the relationship between computer-assisted language learning and success among two different study groups, such as boys and girls. Other good topics would include the use of web technologies for language interaction or the use of smart phone apps in language learning: Demographic groups that would offer interesting studies along these lines would include Japanese students in American colleges, children of multilingual families or Latino students who spend a good deal of time using social networking.
Second Language
The trials, tribulations and successes of second language learners also make for interesting theses. Along these lines, you could investigate the effects of reflective journal writing on a particular student population, such as Romanian or Japanese students. You would likely also find fascinating the possibility of topics such as vocabulary learning strategies for speakers of English who are trying to learn Chinese, possibly comparing the success rates of those who do so in the United States versus in China. Another engaging topic would be the perceptions of ESL teachers who work with adolescent learners with specific learning disabilities.
Special Subjects
Finally, you could simply choose to write on a specialized topic for your thesis, provided you get the approval of your thesis director. You could investigate motivational teaching strategies for foreign language learning by teens or the use of multimedia to help Thai and Filipino college students learn independently. You could even decide to examine the efficacy of a specific learning theory, such as Mezirow's Transformative Learning Theory, which involves critical thinking and goes beyond knowledge acquisition, using active engagement and questioning.

MA Thesis - English Language Students' Preferences Regarding On/Offline Computer Based Vocabulary Exercises
This study aimed at finding out about the preferences of students at Middle East Technical University-Northern Cyprus Campus-School of Foreign Languages English preparatory classes regarding independent computer based vocabulary exercises. In order to find out about learner preferences, six different types of exercises were prepared for three proficiency levels: pre-intermediate, intermediate and upper-intermediate. Learners were provided with two types of questionnaire: immediate feedback questionnaires where learners would evaluate each exercise type after they tried them out and the final questionnaire where learners could rate each exercise type and compare them. Finally, a limited number of learners were interviewed in order to find out about the reasons behind their choices. The number of learners participating in the study was 119. Data obtained via questionnaires was grouped in three parts: Overall findings, female learner preferences, male learner preferences, pre-intermediate group learner preferences, intermediate group learner preferences and upper-intermediate group learner preferences. The findings and statistics of the study were presented via graphics, tables and text. In order to strengthen reliability and trustworthiness correlation charts of the pilot study were also provided where questionnaire items were checked for correlation. The results of the study revealed that learner preferences showed almost no difference between genders. However, there were slight differences between the preferences among learners in different proficiency levels. Although minor differences were observed regarding the exercise types, according to the overall results learners preferred mostly exercises with rich multimedia support. Exercises with no or limited multimedia and with the least interactivity were not preferred by the learners. They also stated that exercises with rich multimedia and interactivity were more useful for learning and practicing vocabulary.

This study aimed to explore the impact of computer-assisted language learning on Iranian EFL students' vocabulary learning. Participants of the study were 76 students – 29 males and 47 females – learning English as a foreign language in Parto, Sadr, Poyesh and Andishe Institutes in Ahvaz who were selected after taking the Nelson English Language Test as a proficiency test. They were randomly divided into two groups. One group was taken as control and the other as experimental group. Both groups participated in the teacher-made test of vocabulary, Vocabulary Levels Test (VLT), and Word-Associates Test (WAT) as pre-test. During class sessions the control group was taught the vocabulary, in the conventional way, through the printed textbook while the experimental group taught by the software version of the same book. Three ANCOVAs were run to compare the performance of experimental and control groups after the treatment period. The results of the ANCOVAs revealed that using vocabulary learning software was more effective than using printed book on vocabulary learning, vocabulary breadth, and vocabulary depth of the participants. The results of the present study could help EFL course book designers, foreign language institutes, educational planners, material developers, teachers, and learners to provide a better context for EFL learning.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of Quizlet, an online website, on vocabulary development of Turkish EFL learners enrolled in a preparatory program at a private university in Istanbul, Turkey. The participants were 43 students at the pre-intermediate and intermediate level of proficiency. The study lasted for a whole teaching module consisting of 7 weeks. Within this process, for three weeks students studied and practiced the target words without using the online tool Quizlet. For the last four weeks students were weekly assigned with exercises from the online tool covering the units that they had learnt in those certain weeks. Vocabulary quizzes were administered to the participants before and after the application of the treatment and the results were compared. Classroom observations, interviews and student records were also used so as to identify students’ perceptions of the online tool.The findings of the study will be discussed in relation to vocabulary development in foreign language education.

1. IntroductionMore than three decades ago, Meara (1980) called for more research on the nature of vocabulary acquisition; since then, there has been a considerable amount of literature devoted to the role of vocabulary in second and foreign language learning and how vocabulary itself can and should be taught. (Bell, 2009; Churchill, 2008; Laufer, 1998; Laufer and Paribakht, 1998; Schmitt, 1998; Webb, 2008; Zheng, 2009). On the other hand, the so-called computer era has revolutionized most of the fields of human endeavor including ELT. This revolution in ELT has another noticeable aspect; the computer facilities and what they can offer to ELT is constantly changing. These changes have their repercussions in ELT and there is a need for revising previous findings and moving toward new theories. This study tried to compare two ways of doing vocabulary instruction; the traditional explicit one which has so far been with us (and most probably will continue to be) and an innovative one wh...
