4. EXPECTED OBSERVED

5. • In Turkey, early childhood education system is
teacher centered. Students are more passive
than their teachers in their classroom.
• Teachers are authoritarian and dominant
members of class. Therefore, preschool
students remain in the background. They
cannot participate in class activities.

6. • How can we increase students’ activity in
classroom ?

14. CURRICULUM
• Our early childhood
education system is
regulated without
considering children’s
abilities.
• The children who are
exposed to this curriculum
cannot be express
themselves because they
have different abilities than
what the curriculum expects.
• In current curriculum
teachers have authority on
children so students stay
behind.
LACK OF RESOURCES
• The budget for preschools
is not enough to meet
needs of early childhood
education programs.
• Limited materials keep
children away from
participating some
activities.
• Because of limited
resources, their
imagination does not
improve.

26. • We came to a conclusion that parents,
teachers and children’s attitudes play an
important role in determining children’s
activeness in preschool but the most
effective factor is the system.
• People think that the state does not
provide financial support to early
childhood education.

27. SYSTEM
• The education system
should focus on child-
centered approach and it
should be inspected
constantly
• The budget which is
allocated for early
childhood education
should be raised by
Ministry of Education http://tr.123rf.com/profile_yeletkeshet

28. HUMAN
• The relationship
between parents and
school administration
should be strengthen.
TEACHER
• Since each child has
special abilities,
teachers ought to guide
children according to
their capabilities.
