“From my perspective, the digital learning experience mostly meets the principle of humanism since learners can attend and participate in any course that fits their learning style or interest with their free will. “ (Emre Sobacı, May 1)
“Teachers can be more humanistic by guiding through every step. Teachers should be well informed about the bad and good sides of this type of learning and use it efficiently. Otherwise, good sides will be neutralized and the impact of bad sizes will climb up.” (Ömer Çiçek, May 1)
“I believe that with online education, the humanistic approach is enhanced. Because, as you know, the internet has a lot of options. The teacher role in online education is easier than face-to-face education because teachers can give roles to their students with required instructions.(Gülhan Aykut, May 1)
“To analyze their needs, interests, or preferences may be possible in online education regardless of handicaps that have the possibilities to be encountered. We can utilize ties, applications, social media tools, web 2.0 tools, and even online games that they are interested in to reinforce their language through their authentic technological usages in digital learning.” (Eda Akdeniz, May 2)
“I think that observing students in an online environment is a bit more difficult than observing in the classroom environment. In this learning process, the most important thing that we can do for supporting our students’ self-learning is to guide them when they need it. In my opinion, it is not easy to direct your own learning because it requires a time commitment and experience.” (Feyza Dişbudak, May 2)
“Thanks to digital learning and its benefits such as various Web 2.0 tools, access to a wider community involving native speakers of the target language, and instant peer/ teacher feedback, it becomes possible in a classroom to achieve the goal of creating a humanist learning environment.” (Yunus Emre Alkan, May 2)
“A teacher must know students’ interests and needs, he/she should try to understand students’ feelings. Especially, if we want to know their needs, interests, and backgrounds, we can make a survey (like our mentors did at the beginning of this classroom) at regular intervals. We can do more social activities to provide motivation.” (Buse Akgüneş, May 2)
“Digital learning can approach students humanistically, teachers must first identify the needs of the students and seek solutions to meet them. Because digital learning and its effects on students cannot be improved unless every student has equal opportunities.” (Sevcan Mercanoğlu, May 2)
“I participated in an online seminar which is called, 'Yarının Eğitimi.' I listened to Andreas Schleicher's speech, he said that 'technology improves teaching, it can't replace teachers. They need us, they need interaction!” (Gökçe Gök, May 2)
“The main issue to be addressed here is the approach of teachers rather than the way of learning. So, the only part that may be insufficient is that teachers do not know exactly what this approach is and continue the education style they were exposed to in their time.” (Zeynep Türkyılmaz, May 2)
“In online education, most students feel safe and secure at home which is a comfort zone for them. However, this might not be the case for all the students; some of them are likely to have “problematic” families that make them feel unsafe and anxious in online classrooms. I believe that we can at least help them ease their anxiety to be able to prepare them for learning better without anxiety. To do this, our warm-up stage should not include a mere cognitive warm-up but also an emotional warm-up.” (Nazlı İrem Meriçli, May 2)
