Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

The class participation and attendance of those who are especially required to take the course is important and it is an important factor to determine the mid term and end of the period performance. Each participant as well as active participation in classes are required to prepare a research project (term paper) within the scope of the course. The course is taught with a method of verbal presentation and discussion of the theories
