dc.description.abstractResearch skills are considered to be anintegral part of teacher education. However, how toteach research and how teaching practices influenceattitudes towards research are underresearched areaswithin the field of teacher education. Therefore, thisstudy aimed to evaluate the effects of a compulsoryresearch methods course given in the second year ofan English Language Teaching (ELT) department ata public university in Turkey. An embedded mixedmethods design was used to find out how the courseinfluenced research attitudes and how it wasperceived by 46 2nd year undergraduate students ofELT. A psychometric scale was used to measureattitudes towards research before and after thecourse. An open-ended questionnaire was alsoutilized for the evaluation of the course by theparticipants. The results indicated a decreasing trendin the attitudes towards research. The findings implythat increasing the course hours and decreasing thenumber of take-home tasks are needed for morepositive attitudes towards research among theparticipants.en_US
