Teaching Mathematics

Many of the students asked many times where will we use this in real life? To be honest It happened all of us. In early school years, many of us did not judge the reason of learning some staff. However, when we grove up we started to think the famous question. Is it really necessary to learn mathematics after knowing some basic concepts like operations and solving some problems? When my students ask me this questions, I always say them you will use them in high school, or in the university. Then, I realize that what if they do not want to know more about it, what if some basic concepts are enough for them? Is it necessary to push them to learn more and more?

Until the end of the 20 th century, just a few of technologies had developed for education. But teachers and some other developers changed these technologies and make it usable in education. Nowadays, many technology companies understand the importance of education and technology based lessons and its market value, and they started to develop some usefu...

About Me!

Hi everyone! I will write this blog about mathematics, technology and teaching. For now, I am student in Boğaziçi University and I'm planning to graduate at the end of this academic year. First, let me introduce my self a little bit. I went to Aksu Anatolian Teacher Training High School. In high school years, I was interested in basketball 🏀. I drafted to school team twice, but unfortunately I couldn't go team's exercise. Thus I had started to do exercise my self in my all free times and I became one of the best basketball player in the school. At the last year of my high school, I and my friend was coach of the basketball team.  I spent my four years there, and I had been living in dormitory🏢 in those years. Those four years were both my best years and worst ones, because being away from family 👪was really hard for me at these years. On the other hand, friendship  of the dormitory was worth for all. After graduation from high school I entered National Unive...
