Week 7: Online Discussion Topic 6
Here is the discussion topic:
Statistics show that newly licenced teenage drivers cause a higher number of serious automobile accidents than any other age groups. It is evident that many young people, especially boys, are too reckless and impulsive to be good drivers. In order to protect the larger society, the age at which people can learn their licence should be raised to 20. Do you agree / disagree?
Partners for the discussion:
Pinar Kaynak & Nurcan Bertas
ps. The others can also participate the discussion, but wait till one of the assigned people starts the discussion.

Week6: Online discussion Topic4:Hatice's response
it is a big opportunity for university students to go overseas, because while doing this, they can learn many things about life. of course we can come across many hardships but that doesnt mean that it will be disadvantages [disadvantageous] for us. think about [imagine] we are studying in a country that we dont know anything about its culture, language or else. but we can learn [about] them if we want, maybe it may be an opportunity for us to learn something related to them. Or [on the other hand], if we just stay at home and go to university in our homeland, we can not improve, just stay still there. for ourselves and for our future, it is really [a] big oppurtunity for us to go overseas and meet a new, different life.

Week6: Online discussion Topic4:Nuray's response
The idea of going overseas for university study is a good opportunity for students.I think,there [are] more advantages than disadvantages beceuse if a student goes overseas for university she/he learns how to dial [deal] with difficulties on her/his own [?]. A unversity student must be brave enough to succeed. the college students should be prepared for the difficult life.
This is also significant for their future career. [why and how?] Students should learn communicating [with other] people. They dont need to go abroad for this but they learn this kind of things when they are away from home..

Week 6: Online Discussion Topic 4
Hi,
Here is the first topic for this week's online discussion:
The idea of going overseas for university study is an exciting prospect for many people. But while it may offer some advantages, it is probably better to stay home because of the difficulties a student inevitably encounters living and studying in a different culture. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement? Give reasons for your answer.

Week6: Online Discussion Topic 3
Hi,
Here is the first topic for this week's online discussion:
Technology is making communication easier in today's world, but at the expense of personal contact as many people choose to work at home in front of a computer screen. What dangers are there for a society which depends on computer screens rather than face-to-face contact for its main means of communication?

Week5: Feedback on Online Discussion Topic 1
Nilgun,
I agree with you. Only natural ability does not bring success. I would like to give another example from football. Sergen Yalcin is one of the few who was born naturally gifted and skilled to play football. But Sergen has lacked hardwork, he relied too much on his natural ability and thus failed to be a worldwide known football star. Yes he was a very successful player in Turkey but he could have been a world star if he'd worked hard enough.So this example shows how hard work is as important as natural ability...
Thank you Nilgun.
Any other ideas on that?..
