Banaz, Emrullah
This correlational study explores how digital reading disposition functions as a cognitive bridge between pre-service teachers' digital reading self-efficacy and their attitude with digital writing practices. The data were collected from 410 conveniently selected pre-service teachers using the Digital Reading Self-Efficacy Scale, the Digital Reading Disposition Scale, and the Digital Writing Attitude Scale. The results revealed moderate to strong correlations between digital reading self-efficacy, digital reading disposition, and digital writing attitudes. Moreover, digital reading disposition was found to mediate the relation between digital reading self-efficacy and digital writing attitudes. Overall, our findings underscore the significance of digital reading disposition in shaping both the potential of digital reading self-efficacy and the processes involved in digital writing among pre-service teachers. Pedagogical strategies that enhance digital reading self-efficacy and motivation to attitude with digital texts may contribute to the development of more effective digital writing skills among pre-service teachers.

Güven, Ahmet Zeki; Yilmaz Karaca, Meryem; Banaz, Emrullah
The present study explores Turkish learners' approaches toward digital writing and how digital writing contributes to their language learning. For this purpose, we recruited 21 international students from 16 countries, 10 males and 11 females, who attended B2C1 -level Turkish language classes at the Akdeniz University Turkish Language Teaching Center in the 2021-2022 academic year. We recorded and transcribed the data collected through face-to-face interviews with a semi -structured interview form consisting of 6 questions. The data were then coded to generate themes, and the findings were grounded on the interpretation of these themes. Accordingly, the results uncovered that all participants engage in digital writing and mostly utilize WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, YouTube, and Twitter as digital writing platforms. Moreover, they were found to usually mind proper spelling and punctuation and tend to use the T9 typing system in digital writing in Turkish. We also discovered that participants find auto -correction useful and sometimes misspell vowels, consonants, and longer words/consecutive suffixes due to differences between spoken and written languages. They particularly thought that digital writing contribute to their learning of Turkish. Overall, we comprehensively discussed the findings and raised some recommendations for future research.
