to Others My prior experiences of eLearning before coming to the UK were more

‘traditional’ and less focused on new pedagogies, become more critical, questioning some of my

prior assumptions with regards teaching and learning through online and blended approaches

which I believe should be based on learner centred approach

Toledo is one of the Spanish cities with the greatest wealth of monuments. Known as the “city of the three cultures”, because Christians, Arabs and Jews lived together there for centuries, behind its walls Toledo preserves an artistic and cultural legacy in the form of churches, palaces, fortresses, mosques and synagogues.

Research questions for my planned PhD thesis:

Hayati Yildirim

Turkey is waiting for EU membership

Around 16 millions primary and secondary school students including high school students.

Around 2.6 million university students including 250.000 getting undergraduate degree each year.

Nearly 12.000 graduate degree seekers go outside Turkey (approximately half EU and half US).

94 Public and nearly 30 private universities all around the Turkey.

Turkey spare extra-ordinary budgets for Technology in schools for the last 10 years.

Around 50.000 teachers of (computer) technology have been hired in primary schools since 2000

Academic researches in universities are getting more budget support for the technology usage in education and technology enhanced learning and teaching.
