Description

The Aytürk Technique, developed by Ertürkler, is an original classroom technique for music and other disciplines built on "a rhythmic table pattern" and drawing "upon brainstorming, mind mapping, educational games, and gallery walk (board) techniques." Students arrange concepts or rhymes in a 16-cell Rhythmic Table and turn it into rhythmic or melodic structures, producing a musical product at the end of every activity. It aims at a participatory, creative and interactive environment in which students imagine, create and express themselves.
