Nature Based Learning Concept!    What is NLC ?    

When they decided to raise "a Doğa generation", they agreed that the best way

to provide the finest education for the students was to involve nature.

With the thought that the best method is "learning through experience", we apply an educational method named"Nature Based Learning Concept" NLC model approaches every student as having their own way of

learning that works best for them. The curriculum has an innovative and progressive structure, not stable.

NATURAL LEARNING CONCEPT(DOĞA KONSEPTLİ EĞİTİM MODELİ)

NLC enables educational systems more dynamic & innovative structure.

Students can … learn out of the traditional classrooms through

opening the doors to a NATURE. adopt continuous development as a principle on

environmental issues.

The aim is to create “environmental voluntarist”

Ecology Courses that are applied in Doğa Schools also enhance the awareness of nature.

Ecological production not only requires receiving the crop while working on the soilbut also the

richness of the soil takes us to other agricultural productions. On one hand students could be watering the fields and on the other hand they would be

picking up the products to make a tomato paste,fruit jam or cut some noodles. Our students also learn to make yoghurt, buttermilk with the milk that they

have milked from the cows and sheep which live in our barns. Doğa students can eat and also take home their own made products while we usually

consume already produced products from supermarkets in school.

Through the teaching system that is based on Multiple Intelligence Theory, the education process is realized according to different intelligence categories: “Logical-Mathematical, Linguistic, Spatial, Bodily-Kinaesthetic, Musical, Interpersonal,Intrapersonal and Naturalist intelligence. Thus, our students are not restricted to dominantintelligence areas. NLC method is also used to activate recessive intelligence areas  of the students.

and music aren't² restrained in classrooms. Through this model,

students become active ² participants of the learning process.
