Abstract
The present mixed-designed study focused on the
relationship between teachers’ translanguaging pedagogies (TP) and students’
attitudes to these pedagogies in a Turkish State University. Teachers (N=3) of English, teachers (N=2) of English and
Russian/Turkish, and their students (N=157) were selected through convenient
sampling. The data were collected through a questionnaire developed by the researcher
and semi-structured interviews. The quantitative data were analyzed through
descriptive statistics and Spearman Rank correlation. The qualitative data were
analyzed through content analysis by using CLAN (Computerized Language
ANalysis) Program. The findings displayed that students’ preference for TP
positively correlated with the extent to which it is used by their teacher in
class. According to the interviews, by being exposed to their teachers’ methods,
students adopt their teachers’ attitudes and approaches to language learning.
