Project Dramas- Taking Two Different Versions Of The Same Story and Comparing -Cultural Flipped Classroom

This is an interactive project that will include both Blogging and an end of the Year video conference

Register


Project Drama will be a Sept. 2017- June 2018 project. Teachers will assign to watch both series and answer prepared questions. Students will blog weekly about their answers and share with students all around the world. Then in June 2018 we will have a large video conference on the results- trying to get some spokespeople from the Dramas to speak to the students. In an era where death or illness can become a comedy and when we can learn about culture through video-isn't it about time to change the way we teach? We will view these episodes with their English subtitles. There will be episode guides and questions for each episode.

Baba Candır series is a comedy series adapted from the South Korean series called What Happens To My Family (Gajokggiri Wae Iroe) (from  Wikipedia). The theme of What Happens To My Family is that the father of Cha Soon Bong has raised three children by running a tofu * shop after his wife has died. His biggest child is  Kang Shim. Kang Shim is chief secretary in a very famous company. The second child, Kang Jae is the doctor. And His younger son, Dal Bong, is unemployed.

 

Synopsis of Baba Candir (Father is a Life)

This is exactly what the father Candır series is about. The actor and the characters that plays in the father Candır series are as follows: Yufkaci Salih(Settar Tanrıoğan) lost his wife years ago. He is also doing maternity as well as paternity to the three remaining children. 

Of course, his sister Nermin (Tülay Bursa) is also helping. Just like what Happens To My Family is on, she is the eldest child of Zihuator Salih. Ece's character, played by Berna Koraltürk, is chief secretary in a large company. He is married to Haluk (Uraz Kaygılaroğlu), the son of the owner of the company and the chairman of the board of directors. 

Egemen was the second child of Zihuator Salih. Mustafa Tolga Pancaroğlu revived Egemen, private physician is the chief physician. The daughter of the hospital owner is married to Aslı (Dila Akbaş Bayrak). The smallest child of Zihuatman Saleh is Emrecan. 

Emrecan, originally played by Karaman, is married to Ceylan (Melis Tüzüngüç). Emrecan, who suffered from unemployment in the first part of the series, infected every job he applied to his face. However, in the following sections, the transgression is starting to work with Ceylan in the company of Haluk.

The subject of the Father Cyril series is, as mentioned earlier, that the wife of Joseph Saleh loses his wife years ago and both mother and father of three children. His brother Nermin also helped the Yufkaci Salih in the growth of the children. It is to see that the only purposeful children of the Zihuisten Saleh are happy. He is a father who can do everything for their happiness. Nermin first worked in a company where Ece worked. Then the neighborhood became a headman.

But Nermin still has not given up on finding her one. Despite the insistence of his brother and his children, Yufkaci Salih, who is not warm to anyone, hesitates to betray his love and his memory. He knows that you can not fall in love with him anyway. So he does not think about getting to know anyone and getting married. Its purpose is only to have their children happy and stand by.

Even though there are some minor problems in the family, everything is normal. Suddenly, however, Yifkaci Salih learns that he is sick. The disease is a nervous disease and has something to do with the brain. But Yufkaci Salih, who does not want their children to learn this news and be unhappy, keeps this disease from their children and resists living for them. 

Dr. Elif Hanim (İpek Tuzcuoğlu) starts the religion to continue the treatment of Salih. Elif Hanım's father was caught in the disease of Yifkaci Saleh. Therefore, the Yufkaci gives much value to Saleh. The only thing Elif Hanim's father and father is all hope is to be sick. Despite trying to hide this situation so that the children learn illness and be unhappy, the son of a doctor, Egemen, finds out the disease of his father's coincidence. 

Egemen, who has a brazen, top-looking attitude at the beginning of the series, acts very close to his father after learning his father's illness. Then they learn about the whole family disease and now they are trying to make their father happy. However, Yifkaci Saleh does not know that they have learned their children's illness.

Of course, there is no fight against disease. There are also events in which the entire family can be happy. Aslı and Ceylan are pregnant. Moreover, Ceylan will have twin births. This news made the family very happy. In order to receive help from Nermin in the care of Aslı, Egemen and Aslı are moved to their father's side. Emrecan and Ceylan are already there. Every now and then Haluk and Ece will also come to the west. This situation is very favorable to the Yufkaci Saleh. 

Because he still does not think your kids are growing up. His children are very happy when they see that way. Everything in the father Candır series reveals the family warmth. So everything has to be thought in the family that ends in the beginning of the family. When he is happy, he is with the family, and when he is unhappy, he is with the family. It is emphasized that the most precious thing in life is being a family.
