Abstract (Original Language): 
Dil ve kültür arasındaki ilişki hem dil öğretmenleri hem de bilim adamları için sürekli önem arz eden bir konudur. Kültürü bilmek aynı zamanda yabancı dil öğrencilerine de yabancı bir toplumu tanıma konusunda pek çok imkânlar sağlamaktadır. Bu makalenin amacı İngilizce’nin yabancı dil olarak kullanıldığı sınıflarda, İngilizce’yi öğretirken aynı zamanda da kültürün öneminin belirtilmesinin ve kültür bilincinin artırılmasının yararlı olacağını göstermektir. Derleme türünde bir çalışmadır. Dolayısıyla bu makalede geçmişten günümüze bu alanda yapılan çalışmalar incelenmiş, kaynaklar taranmış, değerlendirilmeleri yapılmış ve önerilerde bulunulmuştur. Çalışmanın bazı temel başlıkları olarak da yabancı dil öğretiminde kültür ve kültürler arası anlayış; kültür ve dil öğretimi ilişkisi; kültürlerarası iletişim becerileri; sözel olmayan davranışların kültürdeki yeri ve öğrencilerin diğer kültürlere karşı tutumları ele alınmıştır.
