Meeting Topics for 2011-2012
Our meeting dates and topics:
30.11.2011
Presenter: Pınar İnal Facilitator: Aylin Geron
How can we deal with impulsive students in a class setting where we want to be fair to each and every student?
5.01.2012
Presenter: Mizan Çoşkun Facilitator: Sema Tekdoğan
We don't want our students to copy and paste in their project homework. What methods should we employ to stop this?
5.03.2012
Presenter: Mazal Dozbahar Facilitator: Sırma Demirel
Why do teachers show resistance to change when they already have had the specific training? (Why do they only ask comprehension questions in a reading part of a test, even after their Bloom's Taxonomy training?)
27.04.2012
Presenter: Sevda Uygun Facilitator: Mazal Dozbahar
What can we do so that students follow the instructions to do a given homework properly and correctly?
23.05.2012
Presenter: Sevda Uygun Facilitator: Aylin Geron
Using essays written by students in a project group in 8th grade, we are going to discuss different academic levels within the same class.
Pınar İnal will have the booklets on the protocols be photocopied for the newcomers of our group.
Derya Muşkara asked us to consider this last topic as well. In the primary school, students are evaluated according to their own progress. But in fourth grade the system changes and they are tested on pass and fail grounds. This method can demotivate some of the students. We decided to talk about this issue as well.

Survivors's Wrap up 2010-2011
We had six sessions last year on various subjects, using various protocols:
23rd of November: We talked about dealing with different academic levels in the same classroom.
28th of December: Our discussion topic was:” how can lunch breaks be healthier and more productive for students?”
27th of January: The issue was dealing with disruptive students in the class.
22nd of February: Reactive mode versus proactive discipline methods used in the classroom.
26th of April: What can be done to motivate and challenge gifted students? The difference between the educational systems of US and Turkey and the use of project based assessment in these different cultures.
7th of June: We read articles about Cooperative Learning, choosing a word, phrase and sentence from the text to create a discussion around the topic.
What were the results of these meetings?
Our students started spending their lunch breaks outdoors.
At the beginning of the year, the class teachers of 6th, 7th and 8th grades discussed classroom rules with their students and wrote them on paper.
We are still using tickets to motivate students of different academic levels to study more. We continue working with weaker students in small groups as well.
We have planned to come together on these dates:
1st meeting 18.10.2011 Tuesday
2nd meeting 30.11.2011 Wednesday
3rd meeting 05.01.2012 Thursday
4th meeting 05.03.2012 Monday
