TitleRecommended Textbooks for Teaching Turkish
Body
A recent request on the LLTI listserv for recommended Turkish textbooks received the following replies:

----

Yale's Turkish teacher tells me that she uses: (1) Kayip Canta by Eser Taylan and Didar Akar, distributed by Bogazici University Press (available through Amazon.com) and (2) a grammar workbook (Workbook for Hikmet Sebuktekin's Yabancilar icin Turkce) Eser Taylan and Muammer Serin, also Bogazici University Press.

The Language Materials Project at UCLA http://www.lmp.ucla.edu has a database that lists, by language, all the materials that the Project staff has actually seen -- textbooks, audio, software, reference grammars, etc.

One of our grad students recently put together a dozen lessons (4 each for beg., int., adv) of media-rich and culturally interesting material. It's not real polished yet, but it did show how easy the U. Wisconsin tool, Multimedia Lesson Builder, is to use. His site is at:

Also, at FLEAT, Mike Bush mentioned that his research group was going to be coming out with more material to go with their DVD project, Sevgili Murat, the Turkish Film project.
