ABSTRACT
Humans need to live in society, which has led to the establishment of institutions with different structures and mechanisms. Education, which is at the forefront of these institutions, is an institution that performs the direct and indirect socialization processes. The group that experiences these processes most intensely is the classrooms. Classrooms as social groups in unity, displaying characteristics of society. Each classroom has its own characteristics and structure. This study tries to understand how the social dimension of the classrooms is formed from a Symbolic Interactionist perspective.
