The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between prospective teachers' tendencies towards educational philosophy and lifelong learning and their teaching-learning process competencies. The study used the descriptive model to determine the current situation and adopted a predictive correlational design to find out the extent to which educational philosophy and lifelong learning tendencies predict teaching-learning process competencies. The study group consisted of 238 prospective teachers. The data were obtained using three scales, namely "Educational Philosophy Tendencies Scale", "Lifelong Learning Tendencies Scale" and "Teaching-Learning Process Competencies Scale". The study revealed that prospective teachers adopted more the philosophy of progressivism and reconstructionism, and their lifelong learning and teaching-learning process competencies were at a high level. The gender variable was effective only in the essentialism dimension in terms of the educational philosophy tendencies. While it was effective in lifelong learning tendencies, it had no effect in teaching-learning process competencies. The branch variable, on the other hand, was effective in all dimensions of educational philosophy tendencies except for perennialism. It was determined that the tendencies towards educational philosophies alone are not predictors of the teaching-learning process competencies. When, however, lifelong learning tendencies and educational philosophies are taken into account together, they predict the teaching-learning process competencies.

The present study aims investigating the relation between educational philosophies adopted by prospective teachers and their teaching-learning conceptions. In the study, relational screening model was used. In the study, simple random sampling method was used. The study included 431 prospective teachers studying in divisions of elementary school teaching, science, social studies, Turkish, preschool, English, psychological consultancy and guidance and computer teaching. The data in the study were collected by using the scale of teaching- learning conceptions and the scale of philosophic preference assessment. Descriptive statistics, multi-linear regression analysis and Pearson product moment correlation analysis took place in data analyses. As a result, it was seen that the prospective teachers responded as “I agree” to the contemporary educational philosophy dimension of the educational philosophy that they adopted while they responded as “I agree in part” to the traditional educational philosophy and as “I agree” to the constructive sub-dimension of the teaching-learning conceptions’ scale and as “I agree in part” to the traditional sub-dimension. It was determined that there is a relation at low and moderate levels in the directions of positive and negative between the scores of the prospective teachers in the educational philosophy they adopted and their scores in teaching-learning conceptions while sub-dimensions of traditional and contemporary educational philosophies of the scale of philosophic preference assessment that they adopted has a significant relation with the teaching-learning conceptions.

The system of relationships and emotions that develop in the teaching-learning process define the complexity of teachers' education and pose the challenge of bringing out the emotional and affective culture that guides school life. Several studies on teaching practices highlight the tendency to refer to technical aspectsas a key dimension of professionalism, rather than on relational and emotional dimensions that can promote the relationship with student. The creative and unprecedented reconfiguration of professional practice is configured as the outcome of a reflexive process of subjective construction and de-construction of the profession and its development.The paper proposes a reflective training experience, which involved 76 teachers, focused on emotional and relational dimensions on teaching and based on the use of the narrative-autobiographical instruments (diary, narrative, metaphor). The results achieved in the monitoring phase show that the training offered an opportunity to reflect on oneself and one's personal and professional experience, starting from the use of alternative perspectives and interpretations than those that are already in use

AbstractEntrepreneurship educators can maximise the effectiveness of their delivery by having a firm grasp of the different educational philosophies and theories that underpin entrepreneurship education pedagogy and practice. A particular educational philosophical orientation underlies, directs, and drives educator practices and should align with what the teaching seeks to impart and achieve, and the roles the learners and educator play in the learning process. Whilst educators might not always be explicitly aware of their philosophical orientation, it will direct and drive their pedagogic practice and have implications for what they deliver, and how they deliver it. The benefits of bringing together different learning theories, philosophies, and approaches for entrepreneurship education has previously been posited in the literature. However, it has been highlighted that connections between educational theory and practice are limited, and that the field of entrepreneurship education could be advanced through providing links between education literature, theory, and learning. This paper advances the literature by linking educational philosophy and theory to entrepreneurship education and pedagogy in higher education. It discusses and highlights how behaviourism, cognitivism, constructivism, and humanism can be used to underpin and support learning in entrepreneurship education. This meets calls for the conceptualisation of how educational philosophies and theories can be integrated into entrepreneurship education to support learners.

Since the beginning of humanity, an attempt has been made to explain the way in which man acquires knowledge, the way in which he assimilates, processes and executes it in order to develop the teaching-learning process that people need throughout of his life, which forces to change the learning schemes using new study methodologies, such as neuroscience, which is a discipline that studies the functioning of the brain, the relationship of neurons to the formation of synapses creating immediate responses which transmits to the body voluntarily and involuntarily, in addition to controlling the central and peripheral nervous system with their respective functions. It is necessary to change the traditional scheme and implement new strategies that allow the teacher to venture into neuroscience, in order to individually understand the different learning processes that students do. As some authors of neuroscience say, the brain performs processes of acquisition, storage and evocation of information, which form new knowledge schemes that generate changes in the attitude of the human being, for this reason teachers are responsible for taking advantage of what It is known about the multiple functions of the brain and be clear about the various ways of acquiring knowledge.

By the way it presents itself, the repulsive educational style brings indisputable prejudices to the teachinglearning process, strongly affecting the entire construction of this process, especially the segment that covers the relationship between the teacher and the students. Having the ability to impose itself differently – as something reminiscent of an authoritarian or nomothetic behavioral, distant or impulsive, ultra-reactive or strict, oscillating or detached – the educational style in question is characterized by the fact that it contradicts the rights and duties incumbent on the position of a teacher. In his presence, the school environment collapses, ceasing to present a „suitable environment in which essential connections can be created for the multilateral and harmonious development of the student” or a „space in which the professional competence of the teacher is complementary to the developmental particularities of the student”. Moreover, through the conflicting energies he releases, he distorts the meaning of the teaching profession, obviously contributing to the establishment of didactogeny. Or, as it has been mentioned more than once, in various specialty sources, if the educational style does not resonate with the rights and duties of the pedagogical profession, the didactogeny is predetermined, simply, to become a reality, a state in fact, which must be associated with the big mistakes in the area of the teaching–learning process or, in other words, with the big deviations from what the professional deontology of the teacher means.

<p>The fact that today’s students are mostly equipped with high level of digital literacy encourages English teachers to use the Internet as one of the teaching learning media. Moreover,, the abundance of online materials for EFL students which are easily accessible makes the teachers’ job much easier. However, these advantages do not come alone without any drawbacks that challenge the teachers in implementing effective online teaching-learning activities for the class and get the most of it. This paper highlights the challenges that the teachers face in implementing online learning for general English class during the short semester program and reveals students’ perceptions on it as part of the reflection on the teaching-learning process. The unique characteristic of this program which is run only for one month requires the teacher creatively seeking effective activities for the class in order to meet the program requirement. The class shows that the students’ performance during the online learning is better compared to the offline class. The students become more active as well as enthusiastically involved in posting thread and giving feedback to their classmates’ thread. Although during the process the students show interest in joining the online discussion, the teacher still have difficulty in finding the strategy to measure the effectiveness of this mode of learning. The reflective writing written by the students identify some issues which mostly deal with their impressions in joining the online learning as well as their difficulties in performing during the teaching learning process. Some students even give suggestions for better improvement in the next application of online learning.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Keywords: </strong><em>online learning, teacher’s reflection, students’ perception, students’ performance.</em></p>
