VIADUCT Teaching Paper (2018)
The paper introduces a model of learner-centered approach to teaching Turkey EU relations by drawing on the example of PSIR 433 Turkey-EU relations class that is taught to fourth-year students at Yeditepe University, Political Science and International Relations Department. The course is designed to encourage the students to become active participants in learning through four major pillars: prelecture discussion sessions, analysis of primary documents, in-class simulation exercise and a research paper. In this way, the course enables the students to take on extended responsibility in learning and equip them with analytical and academic skills to assess Turkey-EU relations.
