New Term will Start Tomorrow

Dear All,
A new term is going to start tomorrow at Boğaziçi University. I have been looking forward to meeting  100 teacher trainees. This excites me because I believe that teachers are the essential elements of a community since they have been holding the forming power of future generations.

For the last four days I was in Trabzon to give a seminar to the teachers concerning ICT Seagulls seminar. The interest and participation of them made me very happy and hopeful for the future. My visit there was the result of great efforts of one of my ex-students_ Aygül Aydın Öztürk. I had taught English to her and her classmates in Göle High School between the years of 1978 and 1981. After ages, she found me through Facebook and we made plans to come together. Technology assists people to find their past friends and it did the same for us. I have been very happy to see my ex-student and her family. They provided us with a great opportunity of meeting new friends and learning more about that Black Sea Region city and its culture. My thanks go to Öztürk Family.

The registration time will end on 1st March for the ICT Seagulls Project. I hope more international teams take part in it. The picture below is from the Long Lake of Trabzon. Loves,
