An amazing experience in Danish schools!


First of all, I want to say that we have lots of differences about educational system.



  1. Revival for the lessons

  2. Population in the class

  3. Using technology

  4. The way of teaching objects and lessons

  5. Pupils' viewpoints and behaviours

  6. Chance to do something

Singing and talking together is the best way to revival in the morning I've ever seen . By this way, they can open their brain before the lessons. This is just the beginning to open their brains. It continued during the lessons. Brain storms, to major on the main idea, using their fantasy on their homework and exercises...We have not got an implementation like that.


They are just 15-20 students in each class. Population is so enough to teach and learn. In Turkey,(It depends on cities but I mean It is in general),25-50 students can be in the same class. It is normal. Private schools is not like that,of course but public schools have lots of students although they have less classes. If we have not got many clever pupils, our educational system can not do lots of things to make us better.



When teacher said them it is time to start,they went out and took their computers from technology room. They started to do their homeworks and focus on this point-----> only homeworks were done ! It is an amazing detail for me because whenever students have a computer in Turkey,they start to search something on the net,see some pictures maybe join facebook:) I thought that It is normal before I came here. I realized that If you find computers easily,you dont need to do these kind of things. There is an another situation that you must be conscious about using computers.They have smart boards in all classes.



It was a mathematic lesson. They talked about what will we need when we want to make a square. It was just like a recipe. They thought about this,they found some deficiency in their conversations and in the and They have learned all details about square. In Turkey,firstly we have to learn all details from lessons and books. Than we start to do lots of exercises about object.



The other difference is similar to the third. Teacher went out in the lesson and silence was kept out by the students. It was interesting condition and athmosphere for me.



On the other hand,In denmark,Students are lucky to have chance to find something they wonder or study. It is so easy to use technology because of government and consciusly teachers. They have a power to do all things. Less population is the other object that is important to give education. All of qualities, I mentioned, make them better.
