Abstract (Original Language): 
İletişimsel yöntemin kullanılması ile İngilizce sınıflarında sadece dilbilgisi kurallarını öğretmekten çok İngilizce iletişim kurmak esas amaç haline gelmiştir. İletişimi pekiştirmek için teknolojik araçlardan ve internetten sağladıkları gerçek materyallerden büyük ölçüde faydalanılmaktadır. Bu çalışma Türkiye’de bir devlet üniversitesindeki İngilizce’yi yabancı dil olarak öğrenen öğrencilerin iletişimsel yaklaşıma ve teknoloji kullanımına yönelik algılarını incelemiştir. İngilizce’yi yabancı dil olarak öğrenen Türk öğrencilerin görüşleri istatistiksel verilerin cinsiyet ve dil seviyelerine göre kıyaslama yapılmasıyla analiz edildi. Analiz sonucunda öğrencilerin cinsiyetleri ve dil seviyeleri açısından istatistiksel olarak önemli farklılıklar bulundu.
