We will be using this group extensively this semester for the grad course that i will be teaching. I am inviting you to join this group, Your insights on learning and instruction will be valuable for the class.

This article describes instructional theory that supports post-industrial education and training systems - ones that are customized and learner-centered, in which student progress is based on learning rather than time. The article describes universal methods of instruction, situational methods, core ideas of the post-industrial paradigm of instruction, the importance of and problems with task-based instruction, a vision of an instructional theory for post-industrial education and training, and the roles that may be played by the teacher, the learner, and technology in the new paradigm. Keywords: instructional theory, post-industrial paradigm, task-basd instruction

Is this Reigeluth's recent publication? I plan to include this in the reading list for next year. Thanks for sharing.

I saw the news on Kursat Hoca's FB profile. It is published in Magazine about Distance Education (Revista de Educación a Distancia). I like the idea of learning without time constraints. I don't know why :)

You'll learn how to give an instruction that will get your students LISTENING straight away as well as a clever way to filter out trouble-makers before they have chance to disrupt your lesson. You'll also learn the three essential factors you need to have in place to get your students settled from the word go - even without you being in the room!

Hi my group, This is our group table, I tried to complete it and wrote something on it and we should complete until this Monday(31th december). See you

Hocam, I tried to complete the table as you know there can be some defficiencies. So I beg your pardon. Thanks for your effort during the semester for us.. For me, this course is the unique one during my grad life and the most enjoyfull. Thanks for everthing.

Thanks Hatice. The table looks good now.

In this link you can find brief information about the theories we reviewed so far, their comparison, weaknesses or strenghts, atomic theory as well as some brief knowledge about theorists. This may be useful for completing the table. :)))

This is another explanatory video for technology integration with the aim of engaged, motivated students, interactive classrooms and better academic outcomes.

I just liked this video :) You will see that technology is integrated into nearly all lessons like physics, physical education and even history.

Here you can check the instruction materials that are used in our education.

They just ignore the English language teachers :((((

This article was written by Merill. You can find extra information about this model which there is limited information on synthesis article.

Bilge, thank you for the post. That was nice to read. However, I wonder if there were no ideas about how to make classrooms have fun or what is "student centered" instruction. The article says, "Öğretmenler önce birbirleriyle iletişim kurmayı, köşe kapmacadan afiş hazırlamaya kadar pek çok etkinlikle öğrenmenin aşamalarını, çocukların özelliklerini, dersi öğrenci merkezli anlatmayı öğreniyor." I want to say "they remind" not "they learn" since I don't think that the teacher does not know what student centered instruction is, or how to colourize lectures. Let's say I hope.

Positive psychology should immediately take place in education. Without concentratig on anxiety, fear of a subject matter we as teachers should focus on enjoyment, fun related to the learning. A theory says that mind can not engage two of the issues at the same time; positive and negative issues. Negative issues are mostly make you prevent from going further with that subject matter, however positive issues do the opposite.

Sinem, I agree with you, I think that's why game-based learning, problem-based learning, anchored instruction that has elements of problem-based learning has started to gain importance in education. I did not understand the sentence "A theory says that mind can not engage two of the issues at the same time; positive and negative issues." Can you explain it please,

What do you think about this approach for college instruction? Can we apply it for young learners?

It seems from this video that computer-aided instruction is effective than teachers. One's cannot passing to the next unit unless succeeding the previous one seems to guarantee a student's comprehending a topic. Giving feedback after each unit is a serious issue for a learner.

That must be the way our 'constructivist' educational system should be. I'm really impressed by the way they teach.

It is suprising to see that reputable universities set high standards for applicants, more exams to pass before entering. In Turkey, it is perceived as a success and indicator of giving great importance to establish at least a university in each city around the country. The quality of education should not be measured with the number of universities or the number of university graduates. The credentials of that graduates are far away important.

I totally agree with you. In recent years many universities were opened in Turkey. Most of them do not have any academic people to instruct the new students. It is not a sign of success for Turkey to have "many" but "unqualified" universities. Our unemployment rate is very high when compared to other countries in the world. So what is the logic for opening so many universities?

This blog belongs to one of my frineds doing his M.A. degree on Curriculum and Instruction in Istanbul University. The critique totally belongs to him.
