Newly designed Poster and Emailings for GSSSH

Standardized RA and TA policiesWe have defined the framework of Teaching and Research Assistantship dutieshttp://gsssh.ku.edu.tr/teaching-and-research-assistantship

Teaching experience for Ph.D. studentsAs of Spring 2015, we started granting the privalage to selected Ph.D. students to take part in the undergraduate teaching experience. The first student to benefit from this opportunity was our 4th year Archeology and History of Art Ph.D. student Lauren Nicole Davis who co-lectured ARHA 465: Data Management in Architectural History, Art and Archaelogy

2.2 Activities to Increase Internationalization

Joint Degree CollaborationsWe continue to promote and encorouage Joint Degree collaborations. In 2013, GSSSH launched its first Joint Degree program in Ph.D. in Psychology with Tilburg University. Arzu Aydınlı, Ph.D. student in Psyhchology was the first student to be admitted to the program. The second foremost development was signing a Protocol with University of Amsterdam governing the joint supervision and awarding of 2 doctorate diplomas. We received YÖK’s (Higher Education Concil’s) approval to launch this program for our Ph.D. student in International Relations and Political Science, Aysen Ezgi Üstübici. Both student will be graduating from the Joint Degree programs this summer. Furhermore, we are currently in negotiation terms with the Archeologhy Departments of Durham University, University of Amsterdam and University of Edinburg.

We also sucesfully initiated a Dual Degree program with Binghamton University on Public Policy and Analysis which is a Non-Thesis MA program. The agreement is pending YÖK approval.

GSSSH students in Erasmus / Exchange ProgramsThanks to the hard work of the Office of International Programs, GSSSH has graduate student exchange agreements with over 90 universities in the world. (http://oip.ku.edu.tr/)

Interdisciplinary Ph.D. Research Seminar

In order to enchance collaboration and student interaction between our Ph.D. students, we have strongly encouraged and assisted our students to organize annual "Interdisciplinary Ph.D. Research Seminar" series with all Ph.D. students from all graduate schools. The first seminar is scheduled to take place in May, 2015 which will be a two-day event, where students will be sharing their Ph.D. research and engage in a lively discussion both to build bridges across our

7

disciplines and to familiarize themselves with research going on in each graduate schoo and l. We hope that with the support of all the graduate schools they can have this event once in each academic year with different overarching themes, such as sustainability, technology, inequality.

Academic and Life Skills Graduate Workshops

We worked very closely with ALIS team to helped introduce ALIS-GRAD modules for graduate students. These workshops are designed to enchange academic and social life skills of our graduate students.Workshop topics include; effective presentation skills, work and life balance, stress management, time management.

STUDENTS IN THE PRESS Ceymi Doenyas, PSYC PhD 1

The media coverage of Ceymi’s published book was released on the Autism Awareness Month of April this year. This book is the first and only book in the world that explains to caregivers how to create activity schedules on iPads for children with autism and teach their independent use. Activity schedules are one of the most commonly used techniques in autism education. They help individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) organize and lead their lives independently. Until very recently, these activity schedules were being prepared in multiple, bulky folders, which was time-consuming to create and inconvenient to carry around. These handicaps are resolved with the use of iPads as the medium for activity schedules, and Ceymi’s book explains to caregivers how to prepare these schedules on iPads and teach children with ASD how to use these schedules independently. The book is being sold on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Pınar Yelmi, DES PhD 3

The media coverage for Pınar Yelmi's research on "The Soundscape of Istanbul" and Soundwalk Workshops was released on several newspapers and magazines such as Habertürk, Yeni Şafak, İleri Haber, Sabah, Timeout, Trendsetter and Artful Living.

21

The Soundscape of Istanbul Project aims to capture the important values of sonic culture and preserve them in the context of intangible cultural heritage. The Soundscape of Istanbul Collection includes both audio files and visual material related to that intangible cultural heritage of the city which is primarily of a sonic character. This collection, which will continue to expand over the coming years, is the outcome of a research project and fieldwork sponsored by a Seed Research Grant from Koç University. The field recordings (and related visual materials) provide a representative sample of neighborhoods, from residential over historical to commercial, captured at various times of day/year in order to present temporal and seasonal changes as well. The project can be reached at https://soundscapeofistanbul.ku.edu.tr/.

Pınar Yelmi organized Soundwalk Workshops on every Saturday in April 2015 to help people realize urban sonic environment and be aware of the importance of the cultural sounds. Soundwalk Workshops was organised in four different routes which are historically important: Galata, Karaköy, Beyoğlu and Eminönü. In the workshops, the concept of Soundscape was introduced and the relationship between city and sound was discussed. It was hoped that the participants perceived the city from a sonic perspective and interpret the urban fabric with an unconventional manner.
