İstanbul Kültür University Faculty of Education

The İstanbul Kültür University Faculty of Education, which has regarded the “Kültür tradition” that is noted for the innovations it brought to the private education sector for more than 60 years as a legacy and continues to provide education under the deanship of Prof. Dr. Alim Kaya in four undergraduate programs: English Language Teaching (English Teaching), Preschool Education, Guidance and Psychological Counseling, Special Education.

Our Faculty, which aims to educate prospective teachers who can practice their profession in local and international education environments in the most effective way, has built the teacher education process on seven strategic areas:

 

•    Clinical Experience Based Teacher Education
•    Character Education and Community Service
•    International and Intercultural Experiences in Teacher Education
•    Interdisciplinary Perspective in Teacher Education
•    Action Research-Based Education
•    Experience Sharing Model: Share-based activities among faculty members, prospective teachers, students, school administrators, and parents
•    National and International Scientific Contribution to the Field of Teacher Education

The Faculty of Education, which is one of the biggest educational moves made by İstanbul Kültür University, which was built on the foundation of education of Kültür College, aims to train educators who teach students how to learn. Character Education and Community Service are included in all the processes of education, training and social areas in our Faculty, which aims to train prospective teachers Based on Clinical Experience gained on the job. In our Faculty where international and intercultural sharing environments are created, prospective teachers are trained to have the ability to meet the needs of students from different geographies. Teachers who will be prepared for the profession with an interdisciplinary perspective can successfully combine applications from different disciplines with their own fields. Our teacher candidates, who are focused on Action Research, will play a leading role in the development of educational activities in school environments and in ensuring the continuous development of schools. 

In parallel with this perspective, our teacher candidates are trained on the basis of the Experience Sharing Model, which will facilitate their preparation for the profession and lifelong learning within the profession. The course contents, course practices and educational teaching processes of our programs are designed within this framework. This model is also supported by share-based activities between faculty members, teacher candidates, students, school administrators, and parents. This synergy partnership between our Faculty and İstanbul Kültür Education Institutions is prospering with schools in and outside İstanbul.

International research and development activities, which are one of the priority areas of our Faculty, are supported by TÜBİTAK and European Union projects carried out by our academic staff. In this context, we aim to contribute to the development of schools in socio-economically disadvantaged regions and to expand our area of influence every day through our projects.
