The population of this study is comprised of the first grade students of a faculty at a
university in south east of Turkey (about 90 students). Within the framework of the study, a
cluster random sampling was planned before the arrival of the students. Thirty students were
to sign up for each of the departments of Physics, History and Turkish Language and
Literature. Thinking that all the students would have similar characteristics, for they had
similar educational backgrounds, the awaited students of the Department of Turkish Language
and Literature and those of the Department of Physics were randomly chosen to form the
experimental group and the control group respectively. None of the students could get high
grades to pass the National University Entrance Examination (ÖSS) and apply for the
departments they really wanted in the first place and they would apply for the abovementioned
departments with low grades as a last resort. Because of their similar low grades
and the educational system of Turkey, none of the students were expected to have been
graduated from any of either Science High Schools or Anatolian High Schools, where English
is taught intensively or from the foreign language sections of general high schools.
