Effectiveness of professional development activities for EFL teachers Gedik Bal, Nur; Savaş, Perihan (2017-06-15) Problem Durumu In the field of ELT, the effectiveness of teaching has been evaluated by examining the teachers’ performances and characteristics for years. However, there has been no consensus on the definition of the attributes of an effective EFL teacher. Many studies have included both students’ and teachers’ perceptions of an effective EFL teacher and even though certain terms have been accepted, it is still debatable. Furthermore, even though the main goal of many pre-service teacher education programs...
Effectiveness of Conceptual Change Text-oriented Instruction on Students' Understanding of Energy in Chemical Reactions Tastan, Oezgecan; Yalcinkaya, Eylem; Boz, Yezdan (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2008-10-01) The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of conceptual change text instruction (CCT) in the context of energy in chemical reactions. The subjects of the study were 60, 10th grade students at a high school, who were in two different classes and taught by the same teacher. One of the classes was randomly selected as the experimental group in which CCT instruction was applied, and the other as the control group in which traditional teaching method was used. The data were obtained through the use o...
Effectiveness of conceptual change text-oriented instruction on students' understanding of cellular respiration concepts Cakir, Os; Geban, Ömer; Yuruk, N (Wiley, 2002-07-01) This study investigated the effect of conceptual change text-oriented instruction over traditional instruction on students' understanding of cellular respiration concepts and their attitudes toward biology as a school subject. The sample of this study consisted of 84 eleventh-grade students from four classes of a high school. Two of the classes were assigned randomly to the control group, and the other two classes were assigned randomly to the experimental group. During teaching the topic of cellular respir...
Effectiveness of smart toy applications in teaching children with intellectual disability Ekin, Cansu C.; Çağıltay, Kürşat; Karasu, Necdet (2018-09-01) Play is an important element in a child's social and intellectual development and toys are indispensable play tools. This study investigates the effectiveness of smart toys in teaching social studies concepts to children with intellectual disability (ID). A single-subject design is used to identify such effects on teaching social studies concepts to children with ID with the help of smart toys developed within this study. The smart toys are also developed within the scope of present work. Three special educ...
Effectiveness of conceptual change instruction accompaniedwith demonstrations and computer assisted concept mapping on students' understanding of matter concepts Yavuz, Ayşe; Geban, Ömer; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2005) The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of conceptual change instruction accompanied with demonstration and computer assisted concept mapping on seventh grade students understanding matter concepts. In addition, the effect of instruction on students̕ attitudes toward science as a school subject and the effect of gender difference on understanding matter concepts were investigated. Seventy five, seventh grade students from four classes of a General Science Course taught by the sam...
