Bestdegree sitesinin uluslararası alanda öğretmenler üzerinde yaptığı bir araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre öğretmenlerin okumuş olduğu 50 kitabı sizlerle paylaşıyoruz. Uluslararası arenada okunan bu kitapları incelerken ülkemizden bir yazarın kitabına da rastlamış olmayı dilerdik. Kitapları incelediğimizde bir kaç ortak nokta bulduk onları belirtelim. Kitaplar öğretmenlik mesleğini nasıl daha iyi yapabilirim, nasıl daha iyi öğrenme sağlayabilirim ve bu yapılanları karşı taraftakinin kendi isteğiyle yapmasını nasıl sağlayabilirimin cevabını arıyorlar. Bu konuda ülkemizdeki öğretmenlerinde bir öz eleştiri yapmaları gerekiyor bu soruları bizlerde soruyor muyuz? Nasıl daha iyi öğretebilirim bunun cevabını bizlerde arıyor muyuz? Ayrıca ülkemizde böyle bir liste yayınlansa ilk 10 sırayı hep TEST kitapları alırdı diye düşünmeden de edemiyorum. Kitap listesini paylaşıyorum.
