Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

Lessons
The lecturer directs the students to produce projects and asks them to practice on examples.
During the review and examination of new technologies, practice studio practices and homework, the practical skills to be encountered will be demonstrated by the lecturer in the first and last hour of the course every week. Students will be strongly encouraged to participate in class discussions and to present their ideas and opinions about the preparation of their projects.
Applications
During the application process, students are shown examples about how to use a method in the production phase and they are expected to make an experiment similar to the example in a three-week period.
