Recently, considering the fact that technology use is inevitable for everyone due to increasing ease of access to technological devices such as mobile phones and tablet PCs along with the necessity of digital literacy in the 21st century; technology use in early childhood education is no longer a taboo. In fact, the question whether technology should be used in early childhood education classrooms has shifted to how it can be used in a more developmentally appropriate way in these classrooms. However, the current teacher training programs mainly focus on traditional teaching methods and present insufficient facilities for improving technological-pedagogical competencies of preservice teachers. This study aims to provide an insight to early childhood education (ECE) preservice teachers’ reflections about how Web 2.0 tools can be incorporated into early childhood education settings. For this purpose, several Web 2.0 tools (i.e. blogs, concept maps, visual presentation tools, learning management systems, infographics, video and audio-, multimedia development- and survey-tools) were introduced to 38 preservice ECE teachers during the period of nine weeks. Participants attended to two-hour lab sessions related to each tool, where they were introduced to the tool and completed a set of instructions using the designated tool. At the end of each session, researchers asked participants to write an example use-case scenario about utilization of the designated Web 2.0 tool within an ECE classroom. Collected reflections were analyzed following open coding procedures to find out the emerging themes and subthemes along with the useful cases and suggestions for both novice and professional early childhood educators.

Examining the relationship between personality traits and nomophobia among preservice teachers
Akhoroz, Mehmet; Yıldırım, İbrahim Soner; Department of Computer Education and Instructional Technology (2019)
In the last decade, the uptake of mobile information and communication technologies, especially smartphones, has undoubtedly had a substantial impact on how people communicate, work, learn, entertain, and even live. While smartphones have obvious benefits due to the capabilities they provide, such as instant access to information and constant connectivity to family and friends, problems associated with smartphones constitute a growing concern for end users, parents, teachers, experts, and researchers. One s...
Efficient inertially aided visual odometry towards mobile augmented reality
Aksoy, Yağız; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
With the increase in the number and computational power of commercial mobile devices like smart phones and tablet computers, augmented reality applications are gaining more and more volume. In order to augment virtual objects effectively in real scenes, pose of the camera should be estimated with high precision and speed. Today, most of the mobile devices feature cameras and inertial measurement units which carry information on change in position and attitude of the camera. In this thesis, utilization of in...
A Software quality model for android applications
Şimşek, Merve Vildan; Betin Can, Aysu; Department of Information Systems (2016)
Nowadays mobile devices have become increasingly widespread. It causes mobile applications number to grow dramatically. As the popularity of these systems is predicted to continue its increase in the near future, the importance of the quality of mobile applications increases. The aim of this study is to present a quality model for Android applications. We chose applications developed for Android Operating System as our target because of its prevalence in the mobile market. To achieve the aim of the study, w...
Applications of silver nanowire networks in opto-electronic devices
Coşkun, Şahin; Ünalan, Hüsnü Emrah; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2018)
The demand for electronic devices such as smart phones, touch screens and flat panel televisions has been increased over the past decade. These devices need transparent conductors and the most widely used transparent conductor as electrode in these devices is indium tin oxide (ITO) due to its high transparency and low sheet resistance. However, ITO thin films have some drawbacks. They are expensive, difficult to deposit, poorly compatible with flexible substrates. Hence, better alternatives for transparent ...
Sentiment analysis with recurrent neural networks on turkish reviews domain
Rysbek, Darkhan; Uğur, Ömür; Department of Scientific Computing (2019)
Easier access to computers, mobile devices, and availability of the Internet have given people the opportunity to use social media more frequently and with more convenience. Social media comes in many forms, including blogs, forums, business networks, review sites, and social networks. Therefore, social media generates massive sources of information in the shape of users‘ views, opinions, and arguments about various products, services, social events, and politics. By well-structuring and analysing this kind...
