There are certain threats embedded in scientific development that confront society. Gaining practical and instrumental experiences in addressing topics related to the major challenges that confront society today can be possible by tapping the socio-scientific issues as a part of science teaching and learning. This research aimed to explore pre-service teachers' reflective judgment skills in socio-scientific issues based inquiry science laboratory course. The participants of the research were 20 pre-service teachers at a research oriented public university. Qualitative case study research design was used in this study. The laboratory manuals and semi-structured interviews were used as data collection tools. Data were analyzed by using King and Kitchener's (1994) reflective judgment framework. Results of the study showed that pre-service teachers' reflective judgment scores tended to increase from the first experiment to the last experiment. Results suggested that exploring reflective judgment in socio-scientific contexts is beneficial for allowing pre-service teachers to actively engage in knowledge construction.

Pre-service science teachers perceptions and practices related to history of science instructions Hacıeminoğlu, Esme; Ertepınar, Hamide; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül (2012-01-01) The purposes of this study were to describe pre-service science teachers’(PTs) perceptions and practices about using history of science(HOS) in their instructions and their experiences as in-service teachers(ITs) and to determine the relationship between PTs perceptions and practices about using HOS in their classrooms. The HOS Instructional Survey was administered to 68 PTs in two different universities in Turkey. After these students had graduated, some questions were asked about their views about practic...
Network Traffic Management: Under Disaster Conditions Tüydeş Yaman, Hediye (LAP Lambert Academic Publishing, 2010-04-01) Natural or man-made, disasters have been a major concern to humanity and a threat to our lives. Management of traffic is very critical during disasters, as accessibility to and mobility in a disaster region can directly affect the level of success in dealing with it. Among many tasks of disaster traffic management, evacuation traffic management is singled out as a major one due to extreme demand levels potentially causing congestion and even gridlocks in a network, if not handled properly. This book include...
Anomaly-Based Intrusion Detection by Machine Learning: A Case Study on Probing Attacks to an Institutional Network Tufan, Emrah; Tezcan, Cihangir; Acartürk, Cengiz (2021-01-01) Cyber attacks constitute a significant threat to organizations with implications ranging from economic, reputational, and legal consequences. As cybercriminals' techniques get sophisticated, information security professionals face a more significant challenge to protecting information systems. In today's interconnected realm of computer systems, each attack vector has a network dimension. The present study investigates network intrusion attempts with anomaly-based machine learning models to provide better p...
Ethics in the use of new medical technologies for neurosurgery: "Islamic viewpoint" Ozgen, C. (2005-09-03) It is very clear from developments in technology and its global expansion that we cannot survive the 21st century with 20th century ethics. The developments in technology, especially those in the field of medicine have a direct and fast effect on human life expectation and survival. Thus, this issue has to be seen and studied in the context of ethics. In this paper, ethical principles in the application of new medical technologies in neurosurgery from an Islamic viewpoint will be given.
Integration of real-time and dynamic surveillance data in managing Azeri-Chirag-Guneshli field Sadikhov, Samir; Akın, Serhat; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2010) By the evolving application of technology in the oil and gas fields, the volume of gathered information through the dynamic surveillance gets enormous. The importance is lying not only in the regular storage and standalone usage of such a big volume of data but also analyzing and integrating them in the light of alternative sources of data in order to turn the data to valuable field performance information. It is aimed to investigate role of the real time (bottom hole temperature gauges and distributed temp...
