Authors:Tamer ERGİN Abstract: This research was carried out in order to test the effect of the Cognitive Intervention Program developed by using PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous, Successive) Theory and YBT (Puzzle) Technic on the cognitive processing areas of children with specific learning difficulties. In the research, a pretest / posttest control group experimental model was used. This study was carried out with individual studies on 80 students, 40 of whom were experimental and 40 were control. In the study, the individually applied Cognitive Assessment System (CAS) was used as a data collection tool. YBT-PASS Cognitive Intervention Program was applied to the experimental group individually for 24 weeks, individually, once a week and for a total of 24 hours, each session for 1 hour. The children in the control group continued their current programs. After the individual application of the program, the CAS was applied to the experimental and control groups individually as a post-test. In the analysis of the data, an unrelated group t-test and related group t-test were used. As a result of the study, it was observed that the post-test scores of the experimental group for the cognitive processing domains were significantly higher than the pre-test scores and the post-test scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than the post-test scores of the control group. The fact that significant results were obtained in each, and the total of the cognitive processing areas defined by the PASS Theory shows that holistic development occurred.

Authors:Burcu BASER; Cahit AKSU Abstract: This study was carried out to determine the attitudes of 5th graders towards the music course in terms of the affective learning outcomes in the renewed 2017 music curricula and to develop suggestions for an effective lesson. The study is descriptive and used the survey model. The sample consisted of 426 5th graders in 8 secondary schools in the Giresun city center and the Bulancak district. The students' attitudes towards the music course were "negative" throughout the pre-implementation and post-implementation phases, but their attitude levels differed significantly in favor of the final implementation both on the scale and on the basis of individual factors. Therefore, it may be stated that the curriculum was effective in realizing the intended affective learning outcomes in the students but that the effect level was insufficient. The answers given to many items of the scale explained the reasons for the negative attitude. Following the implementation of the music curriculum, it was seen that the attitudes of both female and male students towards the music course were shaped negatively. On the other hand, it was concluded that the attitudes of the students studying in the city center were more positive than those of the students in the Bulancak district.

Authors:Elif Nur AKKAŞ; Funda GÜNDOĞDU ALAYLI Abstract: The aim of this study is to examine the definitions and drawings of pre-service mathematics teachers for geometric solids. In the literature, it observed that there are few studies on the definitions and images of students, pre-service teachers and teachers about geometric solids. In these studies, there is no study has been found considers all geometric solids one by one and evaluates both how they are defined and drawing stages together. It is thought that this study will fill this gap in the literature. The participants of the study consist of a total of 48 pre-service teachers from the 2nd grade of elementary school mathematics teaching at an Education Faculty in Turkey. The data in the study were collected with the help of a questionnaire containing open-ended questions. While preparing this form taken from the literature and it was prepared in order to reveal the knowledge and thoughts of the pre-service teachers’ definitions and drawings of geometric solids. Content analysis technique was used in the analysis of the collected data. The data were analyzed in two groups as definition and drawing data. According to the results of the study, a large proportion of the definitions of geometric solids, such as 47%, are determined in the category of "misidentification". It was observed that the pre-service teachers drew triangular prisms instead of pyramids and the notation was not paid attention to in the drawings. In addition, it is determined that the difficulties experienced in defining geometric solids are also reflected in the drawings and there is conceptual confusion in this process.

Authors:Mustafa Aydin BAŞAR; Seda KÖSEM Abstract: The aim of this study is to show the relationship between the levels of conscious awareness and life satisfaction of students of education faculties. Students attending the 3rd and 4th grades at the Faculty of Education at COMU have formed the study population. In this study, which was designed in a relational screening model, 547 students from seven different departments were reached and the “Conscious Awareness Scale” and “Life Satisfaction Scale” were applied. While the conscious awareness levels of the students of the Faculty of Education are quite high, their life satisfaction is moderate and there is a positive meaningful relationship between the two variables. There was no significant difference in both variables according to their gender. In terms of students' academic achievement, conscious awareness and life satisfaction levels are the ones with the highest achievement group BB grade point average. The conscious awareness of those who have spent their last 10 years in metropolitan cities is significantly higher than those who have spent in the district and smaller settlements. Fine Arts Education Department students are the group with the highest conscious awareness and Science Education students are the group with the highest satisfaction life. In line with the results achieved, it is important to open courses and seminars in order to increase the conscious awareness levels of the students and make their satisfaction with life meaningful.

Authors:Sibel ER NAS; Muammer ÇALIK, Hava İPEK AKBULUT, Tülay ŞENEL ÇORUHLU, Cevriye ERGÜL, Zeynep TATLI, Ahmet GÜLAY Abstract: The aim of this study was to develop a science experimental guidebook for the students with learning disabilities and investigate its effect on their conceptual understanding of the “earth and universe” unit. This study employed case study research methodology. The study group consisted of 12 students with learning disabilities. Semi-structured interviews, concept test and drawing test were used to collect data. The science experimental guidebook included discussion method and enriched worksheet(s). The data were analyzed according to the categories of "sound understanding", "partial understanding", "alternative understanding " and "no understanding" given key components. As a result, the research determined that the students with learning disabilities could explain the concepts in their drawings and interviews, but they could not address the concepts in the concept test properly. Also, the findings indicated that the reading and writing disabilities of the students directly affected their conceptual understanding of the "earth and universe" unit. Since the students generally focused on the conducted experiments-activities in their drawings even after the intervention, it can be concluded that they have still had problems in transferring their learned knowledge to novel situations. To help the students with learning disabilities retain their learned knowledge into their long-term memories, the current research recommends to regularly repeat the gained knowledge through the learning process and summarize the newly learned topics with concept maps at the end of the course.

Authors:Erol SÜZÜK; Tuncay AKINCİ Abstract: Bullying is a widespread problem worldwide, and large-scale studies report that approximately 25% of children are bullied at school. bullying behavior remains a significant social and health issue for educators nationwide. Although there is a lot of discourse on school bullying, previous studies are limited in explaining the predictive effect of factors such as individual, parent and teacher variables. It is important to understand the relationship between the factors related to family, teachers and students, who are the stakeholders of the school system, and peer bullying, in terms of shedding light on the measures to be taken in this regard. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between family (socio-economic status and social support), teacher (in-class discipline, teacher support, teacher feedback and teacher interest), and student (endurance, goal orientation and competitiveness) factors and exposure to peer bullying. Furthermore, the power of these factors in predicting peer bullying was examined. The data of this relational survey model study was taken from the PISA application of 2018. The data of 6368 high school students were included in the study in which hierarchical regression analysis was used. According to the research findings, the social support of the family is the most important predictor of being exposed to bullying. There is no significant relationship between socio-economic status and exposure to bullying. Less bullying behavior is observed in the classrooms of teachers who provide good discipline, support their students and care about their students. Students with high resilience levels are less exposed to bullying. PubDate: Wed, 23 Mar 2022 00:00:00 +030
Authors:Fatma ALTUN; Betül Banu ÖZAYDIN, Mustafa ÖZGÖL, Öykü ÖZYAZICI, Sibel EYÜBOĞLU, Yılmaz ÇOĞALAN Abstract: It is known that violence in the school environment is increasing in Turkey and that violence tendency is often associated with the developmental characteristics of adolescence. Therefore, it is important to examine the violent tendencies of adolescents. The present study aims to determine the role of gender, social problem solving and emotional intelligence in explaining the tendency of violence in adolescents. 400 adolescents comprised the sample of the study. As means of data collection in the survey; Personal Information Form, The Violence Tendency Scale, Revised Social Problem Solving Inventory and Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire were used. The results of the study showed that gender, social problem solving and emotional intelligence variables predicted 19% of the participants' violent tendency. As a result of the regression analysis examining the violence tendency of adolescents, it was determined that gender, some of sub-dimensions of social problem solving (negative problem orientation, impulsivity/carelessness style and avoidance style) and some sub-dimensions of emotional intelligence (well-being, emotionality and sociability) were found to be significant predictors. It has been concluded that violence tendency is more common in men and people who have negative styles in social problem solving skills. In addition, according to the findings of this study, it can be said that advanced emotional intelligence is among the protective factors for violence tendency.

Authors:Sedat ALEV Abstract: The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between organizational trust, organizational citizenship behaviors and organizational silence in schools. Relational screening model was used in the research. The sample of the research consists of 310 primary and secondary school teachers working in Gaziantep in the 2016-2017 academic year. Data were collected through, “Organizational Trust Scale”, “Organizational Citizenship Behaviors Scale” and “Organizational Silence Scale”. According to the results of the research, organizational trust, positively predict organizational citizenship behaviors and negatively predict organizational silence. Besides organizational citizenship behaviors negatively predicts organizational silence. It can be said that in schools, teachers will express their feelings and thoughts without hiding their feelings and thoughts in a trust-oriented culture, they will be willing to take part in works that will benefit the school, and they will exhibit organizational citizenship behaviors more. It is useful for school administrators to create a culture based on trust, encourage teachers to do activities that contribute to the development of the school, enable teachers to participate effectively in decision-making process and to make decisions and create an environment where they can express their thoughts comfortably. The relationship between the variables was determined by analyzing the data collected from teachers in primary schools. Research on the subject can also be conducted at different educational levels. In order to examine the relationships that emerged as a result of the research, mixed design researches can be carried out by supporting the qualitative research method. In addition to teachers, research can be conducted to determine the thoughts of administrators on these issues. PubDate: Wed, 23 Mar 2022 00:00:00 +030
