Turkish schools started their fifteen-day-holiday yesterday. I wish a peaceful and fruitful holiday to all students, teachers, administrators and also parents. Universities also ended their final exams and students have started their one-month holiday. If you ask about the instructors; we will rest after checking the final papers and projects, make the necessary preparations for the next term and most probably we will also set aside some days to rest.
I am planning to rets for some time during the first week of February. I will also take some exercice to feel healthier for the coming days. For, I will give two courses and most probably I will have 90 more very precious students like the previous ones. One is an elective course named; "Non-violence in education". It is for the junior and senior students of all faculties. It will be the second time to be instructed. I know it will be a very useful one for the future teachers. They will produce many projects to be ornamented with SQC philosophy. The other is a compulsory course for the freshman students: "Introduction to education". Being an experienced teacher does not mean to stay without doing anything about the new term. It necessitates harder work to renew ourselves. that is why I will be reading many books during the holiday. I will also finalize editing a book about "Village Institutions". It contains 35 projects concerning that wonderful philosophy.
I will go on lecturing about ICT seagulls Project after the holiday. On 11th February I am one of the speakers of the Monthly Seminars of the Alumni Center of Yıldız Technical University. On 15th I will be in Trabzon to inform all the educators working there including the Black Sea Technical University. This year, the interest of the universities seems to be more intensive then the previous years. Yalova University will also ve with us soon.
I would like to share a photo from the ICT Seagulls Award ceremony in CMS, Lucknow, India on 3rd December 2011. Prof.Richard Ennals is getting the awards of Kingston university teams.I hope this year we will be organize one in Turkey and one in Nepal. Sincerely yours,Hayal KOKSAL
