“…A similar conclusion is reached by Turana et al, who study the role of teachers in their interaction with students in problem-based learning [32]. Though such a situation demands distancing, the role of the teacher is important in supporting the student's autonomy, communicating, assessing and giving feedback.…”

“…Accordingly, the application of self-managing models to the academic environment can result in the development of self-management skills and knowledge. Scientists write about the effectiveness of role play training in developing self-management skills and teaching managers to work with self-management techniques [22], [23].…”

The paper describes the modern tendency of freelance and self-employment prevalence in the international translation market. Translation area shows the trend of increasing the number of international self-managed teams working on translation projects. The appearance of such tendency demands changes of translation training focusing it on developing the skills of self-management. The model of selfmanagement study based on transformative learning and situated cognition imitates the international project team work and develops the skills of self-management. The study of the model applied to translators' professional training shows positive influence of such team work on the development of self-management skills, which is revealed by quantitative method measurement and in-depth interviews of project participants. The article recommends reinforcing the component of self-management in translators' professional training.

“…Teachers who act as a leader encourage students to analyse and produce solutions for problems (Annerstedt et al, 2010;Searight & Searight, 2009;Yew & Schmidt, 2009). Leaders are an important part of problem based learning and supervise the whole learning process (Turan et al, 2009;Schmidt et al, 2009). Both help student discussions and rarely explain complex concepts (Charlin, Mann, & Hansen, 1998).…”

Problem based learning, in which events from daily life are presented as interesting scenarios, is one of the active learning approaches that encourages students to self-direct learning. Problem based learning, generally used in higher education, requires students to use high end thinking skills in learning environments. In order to use effectively for secondary students, concept cartoons can be integrated to problem based learning environment. Concept cartoons provide alternative views and help students at problem solving stage. So, in this study the effects of concept cartoons and problem based learning on students' inquiry learning skill perceptions and levels of relating knowledge with daily life were examined. Two experiment groups and one control group were formed and pre test-post test control group quasi experimental design was used in this research. During four weeks experimental practice, courses were continued with concept cartoon integrated problem based learning in experiment group 1 while only problem based learning was used in experiment group 2 and science program activities was used in control group. 553 sixth grade students (13-14 age group) from 9 different middle schools in Turkey participated in this study. Inquiry learning skills perception scale and knowledge-daily life relating open ended questions were used as data collection tools. In the result of the data anaylsis, it was found that students' inquiry learning skill perceptions scores differ significantly in favor of experiment groups. However, no significant difference found between groups in terms of knowledge-daily life relation scores.

“…Within the scope of these studies, some courses were conducted at the school of communication, pharmacy, medicine and nursing. The studies utilized PBL and obtained the views of the students regarding the method (Brzovic and Matz, 2009;Ellis et al, 2008;Rowan et al, 2008;Turan, Elcin et al, 2009). The students had generally expressed positive views regarding the PBL method in these studies.…”

In this study, both the activities prepared by pre-service science teachers regarding the Problem Based Learning method and the pre-service science teachers' views regarding the method were examined before and after applying their activities in a real class environment. 69 pre-service science teachers studying in the 4th grade of the science education participated in the study. This study was designed as a case study. In the result of analysis, it was determined that the pre-service science teachers could develop activities using the features of the problem based learning method. However, it was concluded that pre-service science teachers faced difficulties in some phases during the activity development process such as generating scenarios related to daily life and finding problems to direct the students to inquiry. In the result of semi-structured interviews conducted with pre-service science teachers, it was determined that they had positive and negative views regarding the PBL method before and after the implementation in a real class setting.
