“…Muller, Buteau, Ralph, and Mgombelo (2009) focused on students' projects in which they developed and implemented their own VMs, and they observed that students also have dedication, pride, and ownership in their mathematical work. In another work about VMs, Salajan et al (2009) found that the visual and interactive activities had the potential to induce positive outcomes in mediating the students' conceptualization of difficult theoretical notions. In spite of the fact that there are some similarities in the results of this study and other ePBL studies, the main difference is that, in those studies, VMs did not a play key role in the ePBL environment.…”

Problem Statement: Turkey's passive and task-oriented approach to citizenship education, which has endured since the Ottoman Empire period, has begun to change into more active and democratic citizenship education since Turkey joined the European Union. Identifying the practical problems as well as describing the challenges when practicing the Social Studies curriculum will contribute to citizenship education and its development, both in Turkey and in similar countries. Purpose of Study:The purpose of the present study is to explore the active and democratic citizenship education procedures in Social Studies course in Turkey and to determine the challenges encountered in active citizenship education. Methodology:The study was conducted using a holistic, multiple-case study design. Data were collected through interviews, classroom observations and documents. In this study, extreme or deviant case sampling was used. The study was conducted in two schools: a state school with a low socioeconomic background and a private school with high socioeconomic background. A total of six volunteer teachers and 30 students from both of the schools participated in the study. Findings:The study found that the citizenship perceptions, political views and educational backgrounds of the teachers had an effect on the citizenship education in their lessons. Furthermore, the age, maturity level, gender and social environment of the students had an effect on implementing citizenship education. Also, the test-centered educational system, traditional school organizations and culture, and the relevant legislations and regulations limited the ability of teachers to handle

“…When counselor educators use technology with adult learners, deeper learning might take place. Similar to Salajan et al (2009), using a combination of virtual and interactive activities in the course helps to improve students' understanding of difficult theoretical concepts. This study indicates that using technology with adult learners is an effective teaching modality, especially if that technology gives students more control over their learning and helps them use a variety of learning styles.…”
