Exploring relationship among students' prior knowledge, meaningful learning orientation, reasoning ability, mode of instruction and understanding of photosynthesis and respiration in plants Yenilmez, Ayşe; Öztekin, Ceren; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2006) The purpose of this study was to identify the relative predictive influences of prior knowledge, meaningful learning orientation, formal reasoning ability and mode of instruction on understanding in photosynthesis and respiration in plants concepts. Two hundred thirty three 8th grade students from six classes of one elementary school in Ankara participated in this study. The study was carried out during the 2004-2005 Fall semester. Students in the experimental group (N=117) received conceptual change instru...
Experimental investigation of local scour around inclined dual bridge piers Çeşme, Murat; Bozkuş, Zafer; Department of Civil Engineering (2005) For a bridge engineer, it is very important to estimate the maximum scour depth around the piers as accurately as possible, in order to design the footing safely. Many experimental studies have been performed by several investigators until now, in order to obtain information about scouring mechanism. The aim of this experimental study is to examine the effect of inclination of the dual bridge piers on scour depth. The experiments have been conducted with dual pier models under clear-water conditions, for va...
Modeling the Relations Among Students' Epistemological Beliefs, Motivation, Learning Approach, and Achievement Kızılgunes, Berna; Öztekin, Ceren; Sungur, Semra (2009-03-01) The authors proposed a model to explain how epistemological beliefs, achievement motivation, and learning approach related to achievement. The authors assumed that epistemological beliefs influence achievement indirectly through their effect on achievement motivation and learning approach. Participants were 1,041 6th-grade students. Results of the path analysis suggested that students who believed knowledge to be evolving (i.e., development) and handed down by authority (i.e., source) were more likely to be...
Exploration of preservice teachers’ reflective judgment and argumentation skills revealed in a socioscientific issues-based inquiry laboratory course Karışan, Dilek; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül; Zeidler, Dana L.; Department of Elementary Education (2014) This study aimed to explore preservice teachers’ (PTs) reflective judgment skills and determine the argumentation pattern used during argumentation in socioscientific issues (SSI) based Inquiry Laboratory Course (ILC). The association between reflective judgment skills and argumentation pattern was also investigated in SSI-based ILC. The participants of the study were 20 PTs from the Department of Elementary Education at a large, research oriented public university in Turkey. Qualitative research method was...
EXPLORING HOW RURAL SCHOOL STUDENTS IN TURKEY STUDY WITH EUROPEAN STUDENTS COLLABORATIVELY TO SUPPORT THEIR LANGUAGE LEARNING AND CULTURAL EXCHANGE: TECHNOLOGY AND GAME-BASED EUROPEAN PROJECT Baser, Derya; Baser, Serhat (2012-07-04) A language can be best learned by using that language in real communicative situations as one of the features of the communicative approach of language learning (Gulden & Tapan, 2003). Moreover, a game is one of the most appropriate strategies arranged for preschool children to create an interaction among students, to make them convey messages through languages and reflect their culture (Clarke, 2009). This is also valid for older children especially who are in the age of primary or elementary school. The s...
