Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

Theoretical lessons will be taught with slides containing visual findings. By visiting nearby archaeological sites, excavations and museums, the theoretical information covered in the lesson will also be seen in real life and practical information will be given about ceramic techniques. When the programs of the ceramics department of the faculty of fine arts are suitable, joint workshops will be organized with faculty members and the information given in the lessons in theory will be tried to be reproduced in ancient conditions in practice.
