Abstract
The paper presents research conducted among Turkish primary school classroom teachers regarding their personal and professional views about creating and using KeKeÇa body music games as educational tools. The core principles of the KeKeÇa body music approach – embodiment, play orientation and arts integration – are increasingly recognised as important topics in education today. The research is a phenomenological study with ten young women, primary school teachers who teach at village schools in the mountains. The teachers went through the KeKeÇa training programme, which aims to enable participants to make use of body music in teaching primary school curriculum content. They designed and used body music games for all classroom subjects, especially those that were more difficult to learn in the first place. In order to investigate the teachers’ views, data were collected using an open-ended questionnaire and analysed using MAXQDA software. The results show that the teachers gained more control of the lessons, which became much more fun. They reported improvement in students’ motivation and joy, adding that the learning showed greater long-term retention and became less time consuming. In conclusion, according to the participant teachers, the KeKeÇa body music approach, attitude and practice made remarkable contributions to their professional skills and had a beneficial effect in teaching and learning di-verse subjects, and an enriching impact on their students’ motivation, joy and learning quality.

Title:Mnenja učiteljev : uporaba glasbe telesa pri poučevanju in učenju predmetov v osnovni šoli
Abstract:
Članek predstavlja raziskavo, izvedeno med turškimi učiteljicami v osnovnih šolah, o njihovih osebnih in strokovnih mnenjih o ustvarja-nju in uporabi iger z glasbo telesa KeKeÇa kot izobraževalnih orodij. Osnovna načela pristopa glasbe telesa KeKeÇa – utelešenje, usmerje-nost v igro in integracija umetnosti – se danes vse bolj priznavajo kot pomembne teme v izobraževanju. Raziskava je fenomenološka študija, v kateri je sodelovalo deset mladih žensk, osnovnošolskih učiteljic, ki poučujejo v vaških šolah v gorah. Učiteljice so opravile program usposa-bljanja KeKeÇa, katerega cilj je udeležencem omogočiti uporabo glasbe telesa pri poučevanju osnovnošolskih učnih vsebin. Oblikovale in upo-rabile so igre z glasbo telesa za vse predmete v razredu, zlasti za tiste, ki tudi sicer predstavljajo večji izziv za učence. Da bi raziskali mnenja učiteljic, so bili podatki zbrani z odprtim vprašalnikom in analizirani s programsko opremo MAXQDA. Izsledki kažejo, da so učiteljice pridobile večji nadzor nad poukom, ki je postal veliko zabavnejši. Poročale so o izboljšanju motivacije in veselju učencev, dodale pa so, da je učenje pokazalo večjo dolgoročno zadrževanje znanja in postalo manj časovno zahtevno. Sklepno lahko zapišemo, da so po mnenju sodelujočih učiteljic pristop, odnos in praksa glasbe telesa KeKeÇa znatno prispevali k njihovim strokovnim veščinam ter imeli koristen učinek na poučevanje in učenje različnih predmetov ter bogatili motivacijo, veselje in kakovost učenja pri njihovih učencih.
