Dear all,

We celebrate April 23rd,  National Sovereignty and Children’s Day.

Please find the news for this week below.

1. Common time professional development sessions

Title: How to Collaborate through Peer Observation
Instructors: Selen Şirin & Halime Kutlutan Ak
Session Details: We as team 5 teachers believe that peer observation gives us an opportunity to learn from each other and directly contributes to our professional development. Considering this, six teachers in team 5 decided to give it a try in the 2017-18 Fall Semester. In this session, we aim to share the peer observation process we went through and our experience considering the following three questions:
• How did the idea of peer observation come up?
• How did we organize the whole peer observation process?
• How did this experience affect us?
Date & Time: Morning common time (09:00-10.35)
Venue: ScOLa-220

If you are interested, please send an e-mail to selen.sirin@ozyegin.edu.tr by Tuesday 16:30.
