Nowadays IWBs and similar technology-based whiteboards are widely available and affordable. There was a growing popularity and intend to use IWBs in learning environments and in education in recent decade and it is getting more widespread nowadays. However, literature is lack of examples of IWBs use in classrooms that addresses the lived experiences of teachers. Thus, it is very important to investigate and highlight the lived experiences of teachers for its contribution on providing a more effective learning environment in the classrooms. The primary purpose of this study is to understand and describe the lived experiences of different subject matter high school teachers with use of Interactive Whiteboard (IWB) in their classrooms for instructional purposes in depth and to arrive at the essence of their lived experiences of the phenomena. Accordingly, transcendental phenomenological framework was selected as a methodological framework in this study. Phenomenology is an appropriate and applicable methodology for the purposes of the present study in order to understand and describe the lived experiences of different subject matter high school teachers with use of Interactive Whiteboard (IWB) in their classrooms for instructional purposes in-depth and to arrive at the essence of their lived experiences of the phenomena. In the study, purposive sampling technique was used. In the current phenomenological study, data were collected through in-depth multiple interviews with each 12 participants in the cycles of several weeks in the study. Accordingly, in the proper data collection process 3 discrete serial in-depth phenomenological interviews were conducted with each of the participants of the study. Data analysis process was employed by the phenomenal analysis procedure and guidelines. The practical and scientific applicability of the study provides a convincing and persuasive statement about significance of the problem which is worth researching.

A Comparative study of the fitting performance of hyperelastic constitutive models
Badienia, Yashar; Dal, Hüsnü; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2019)
Hyperelastic materials are widely used over the last decades. Studies on molecular structure and stress-stretch response of such materials goes back to 1940. Since then, many researchers have developed various material models to represent the response of hyperelastic materials undergoing different loading scenarios. Generally phenomenological and micromechanically based material models are the two main categories considered during the modeling steps. Among the hyperelastic material models micromechanically ...
Performance of TPA loaded sba-15 catalyst in polypropylene degradation reaction
Ersoy Yalçın, Ulviy; Tutumlu, Zeynep.; Department of Chemical Engineering (2019)
Plastic materials are widely used due to their low cost and easy processing properties. With an increase in plastic usage, the amount of plastic wastes has also increased, and this situation causes environmental problems. Landfilling, incineration, and recycling are the methods used for the disposal of plastic wastes. Landfilling is not a convenient method as it causes soil pollution. Incineration is also not preferred due to its harmful effects on the environment caused by toxic gases. Recycling seems to b...
Examining the role of contextual exercises and adaptive expertise on CAD model creation procedures
Johnson, Michael D.; Öztürk, Elif; Valverde, Lauralee; Yalvac, Bugrahan; Peng, Xiaobo (2013-07-31)
As computer-aided design (CAD) tools become more integral in the product commercialization process, ensuring that students have efficient and innovative expertise necessary to adapt becomes more important. This work examines the role of adaptive expertise on CAD modeling behavior and the effect of contextual modeling exercises on the manifestation of behaviors associated with adaptive expertise in a population of student participants. A methodology comprising multiple data elicitation tools is used to exami...
An Evaluation Study of a Classroom Management System Usability and Teacher Experiences and Evaluations
Aldemir, Tuğçe; Çelik, Berkan; Kaplan Akıllı, Göknur (null; 2016-11-21)
The use of interactive whiteboards and tablets has been pervasive in educationalenvironments all over the world. After examination of related literature, various systems wereused in the studies, but the usability tests with the actual users were missing. This study addressesthe evaluation of a classroom management system (V-Class) working in accordance withinteractive whiteboards and tablets. This study aims to evaluate the usability of the system usedby high school teache...
Acoustical evaluation of shopping mall typology
Çalışkan, Ekrem Bahadır; Sorguç, Arzu; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2010)
Acoustic design of shopping malls which have become very popular in recent years, has gained importance and it has been considered as an integral part of the design – construction and life cycle treatment of such complex – functional buildings. In this study, acoustic qualities of shopping malls are to be inquired by focusing on circulation areas and atrium spaces where noise is one of major disturbances. In this context, first taxonomy of shopping malls regarding their geometrical forms is to be proposed t...
