In this chapter, local in-service teacher educator initiatives and associated cultural adaptation facilitation tools are explored as a means to find ways to build cultural dialogue in the Turkish higher education environment, and, practically, for teachers in the field. While this chapter draws on an in-service teacher education case, much of what is presented is applicable to preservice settings as well. The chapter concludes with a look at changes in Turkish higher education, particularly in the facilitation of cultural convergence transferable to different educational environments and their applicability to international situations.Book Part Citation - WoS: 1Differentiating Flipped Learning Approaches for the Diverse Needs of the Faculty of Economics, Administrative, and Social Sciences(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2016) Kurban, Caroline Fell; Şahin, Muhammed…Conference Object Pre-Service English Language Teachers’ Learning Experiences and Perceptions During Their First Practicum(AAAL 2019, 2019) Tekiner Tolu, Aylin; Nural, ŞükrüPracticum is one of the most important components of pre-service teacher education programs (Price, 1987). To better design the curriculum of the practicum and ensure the utmost growth, this study examined in depth the experiences and perceptions of the pre-service English language teachers during their first practicum. In the study setting, the undergraduate program stands out as unique and innovative because it includes practicum in four semesters beginning with two days per week in the 3rd year and three days in the 4th year. Therefore, a qualitative case study was conducted with the 15 interns in their first practicum. For participant triangulation, 15 mentor teachers and 3 university supervisors participated in the study as well. The data were collected via online open-ended pre and post-questionnaires, students’ weekly journals and reflective reports, and focus-group interview. The data were analyzed through content analysis and constant comparison method by identifying key terms and creating themes and categories (Creswell, 1998). To increase trustworthiness, in addition to member checking, two researchers analyzed the data, compared their results, and a total interrater agreement was achieved (Leech & Onwuegbuzie, 2007). The findings reveal a very complex and multifaceted experience for the interns leading to growth with certain aspects to be worked on for improvement. The study signifies that the interns mainly focused on generic dimensions of pedagogy rather than those related to the specifics of language teaching. Findings also unearth their perceptions about the demands of the teaching profession in general, managing stress, increase in self-efficacy, learning about doing critical classroom observation, having a sense of collegiality, and revising career plans. Based on these findings, we believe that it is necessary to bring the particulars of classroom-based language teaching to the interns’ attention by providing them with structured classroom observation checklists and guidelines for reflections.Conference Object Evaluating a Model From Two Perspectives: Teachers and University Scholars(Iated-INT Assoc Technology Education & Development, 2016) Aktekin, Nafiye ÇiğdemProductive strategies for evaluating outcomes are becoming increasingly important for the improvement of teacher education [1] and for any model that claims to offer the best practice. The University within School (UwS) model suggests that teacher education must be done through collaboration between universities and schools. According to Ozcan [2], the model combines two models of professional education: one is the traditional "apprenticeship-journeyman-master's" model, which is practice-based; the other is modern professional education, which is mostly based on theoretical knowledge and is implemented through formal schooling. Students and academicians of an education faculty of a foundation university have been practicing to this end in a workplace for two years. Teachers of the partner school have been part of this model as mentor teachers, role models, and participants. This study aims to evaluate the model from the perspectives of teachers and college faculty since the model aims to prepare the conceptual framework of teacher education through the participation of all partners. The perceptions of two faculty members and three teachers were investigated through interviews. The evaluation of the model will help to design the model more effectively.Book Part The Flipped Approach To Higher Education : Designing Universities for Today's Knowledge Economies and Societies(Emerald, 2016) Kurban, Caroline Fell; Şahin, Muhammed; Şahin, Muhammedİçindekiler: List of Figures.--List of Tables.--Foreword.--Preface; About the Authors.--Chapter 1 The Socio-Economic and Socio-Technical Nature of Today's World and How This Impacts the Education Sector.--1.1.
