The learning processes of students in the Turkish Language and Literature program are supported not only by theoretical education conducted in traditional classrooms and lecture halls but also through language laboratories and computer-assisted multimedia environments. The university library’s provision of both printed and digital resources contributes significantly to the foundation of their research and study activities. Additionally, workshops and seminar rooms offer important spaces for the practical development of skills in text analysis and literary criticism. Furthermore, online learning platforms enable students to access course materials and engage in interactive learning regardless of time and place. Out-of-school learning environments also enhance the comprehensiveness of education; through museums, cultural centers, literature clubs, and student organizations, students can experience the tangible cultural contexts of literature. Moreover, field studies and excursions conducted in various regions provide valuable opportunities for data collection and on-site observation, especially in folk literature and dialect research. These multifaceted learning environments facilitate the development of both theoretical knowledge and practical skills for students of Turkish Language and Literature.

• Measurement and evaluation methods, exam types and their contribution to the course grade are determined by the senates of higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles determined by the Higher Education Council (YÖK).
• Various methods are used for the purposes of measurement and evaluation, such as homework, projects, practice sessions, midterm and final exams.
• Letter- and/ or number-based grading systems are used to evaluate student success.

  • A student's final grade in a course is determined by a weighted average of the semester work and the end-of-semester exam. The semester work contributes 40%, while the end-of-semester exam accounts for 60% of the final grade. In courses that include both theoretical and practical components, examinations may be structured to comprise 50% theoretical and 50% practical content.

  • As part of the semester grade assessment, an exam accounting for at least 20% of the total must be administered during the midterm examination week. If deemed necessary by the course instructor, the remaining 20% of the semester grade may be based on assignments, projects, quizzes, seminars, presentations, laboratory work, fieldwork, sketches, reports, or similar activities, in accordance with a previously announced schedule. These activities must be conducted during scheduled class hours. If no such activities are assigned, the midterm exam will constitute 40% of the semester grade.

  • Letter grades become final once they are submitted to the Registrar's Office by the course instructor. Grades are officially announced thereafter. All procedures related to letter grades must be completed by the end of the last business day of the week following the final examinations.

  • The academic achievement levels and corresponding grade point values are calculated on a 4.00 scale. Based on this evaluation, each student is assigned one of the letter grades listed in the table below by the course instructor, with each grade corresponding to a specific grade point value.

    • Grade Point	Letter Grade	Numerical Score Range	ECTS Grade	Verbal Description

In order to monitor the quality of higher education programs;

· YÖK is responsible for the planning, organization, management and supervision of education and other activities at higher education institutions.

· “University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports” of higher education institutions are prepared and published every year within the framework of the criteria determined by YÖK. Reports prepared on these documents, containing quantitative and qualitative evaluations for higher education institutions, are publicized by YÖK.

· The “Report on Foundation Higher Education Institutions” which includes academic, administrative and financial data regarding foundation higher education institutions is published annually by YÖK. These reports including quantitative and qualitative evaluations of foundation higher education institutions are publicized by YÖK. Quality assurance of undergraduate programs in higher education is provided according to the “Procedures and Principles on Quality Assurance regarding the Diploma Programs in Higher Education”:

 1. Creation and Authorization of Education Programs:

1.1. YÖK determines the minimum standards and criteria required to initiate undergraduate degree departments and programs at higher education institutions.

1.2. The curricula of undergraduate degree programs at higher education institutions, as well as the learning outcomes to be expected in relation to students are determined by the senates of higher education institutions in accordance with the relevant basic principles determined by YÖK.

3. Documentation: Upon successful completion of their course credits, as well as other obligations determined by higher education institutions, students enrolled in undergraduate degree programs receive a bachelor’s degree.

4. Self-Evaluation - External Evaluation: In the context of continuous monitoring, higher education institutions upload their “Institution Internal Evaluation Reports” of the previous year into the Information System prepared by the Higher Education Quality Board (THEQC) at the beginning of each year. The “Institutional Feedback Report” by THEQC regarding the external evaluation of higher education institutions is then publicized. In addition, accreditation decisions made by accreditation bodies authorized or recognized by THEQC also show that the quality assurance is ensured for the qualifications of these programs. THEQC undertakes regular reviews on the qualifications determined in accordance with their legislation.
