Students with specific learning disabilities (SLD) typically do not perform at the expected levels of academic achievement. Tangible mobile applications are learning devices that allow for physical engagement and multisensory interaction. They present as promising tools to facilitate learning for students with SLD. This study explored the use of a tangible mobile application for assisting three seventh-grade Turkish students with SLD to learn scientific principles regarding cell concepts. A multiple-probedesign across participants was used to examine the effectiveness of a tangible mobile application. In addition, issues related to usability of the application were also explored. The overall results of the study showed that the tangible mobile application was effective, and the students with SLD were willing to use this application, enjoyed the process, and used the application and objects easily/correctly.

Need satisfaction as a mediator between classroom goal structures and students' optimal educational experience
Alp, Aysenur; Michou, Aikaterini; Corlu, M. Sencer; Baray, Gamze (Elsevier BV, 2018-07-01)
Goal-related messages in a classroom are associated with students' experiences and functioning in learning. However, little is known about need satisfaction as a mediator that translates the classroom messages into students' optimal educational experience. In the present studies, we investigated in a sample of 171 (in Study 1) and 255 (in Study 2) Turkish undergraduate students (60% females; M-age = 19.79, SD = 1.68 and 45% females, M-age = 19.75, SD = 1.67 respectively), the relation of classroom goal stru...
Self-regulated learning strategies in relation with statistics anxiety
Kesici, Sahin; Baloğlu, Mustafa; Deniz, M. Engin (Elsevier BV, 2011-08-01)
Dealing with students' attitudinal problems related to statistics is an important aspect of statistics instruction. Employing the appropriate learning strategies may have a relationship with anxiety during the process of statistics learning. Thus, the present study investigated multivariate relationships between self-regulated learning strategies and statistical anxiety using canonical correlation analysis (CCA). Three hundred twenty Turkish college students responded to the Motivated Strategies for Learnin...

The data were collected through the drawings of children on the topic of 'human-environment' and interviews on drawings obtained before and after the program. The findings revealed that children perceive their environment as a peacef...
