Öğe CHANGES IN STUDENTS' SOCIAL INTERACTIONS BETWEEN THE PERIOD PRIOR TO AND THE PERIOD OF PREPARATION FOR THE UNIVERSITY ENTRANCE EXAM(ISOSS PUBL, 2014) Kumandas, Hatice; Kutlu, Omer; Yildirim, OzenThe purpose of this study is to compare selected elements of students' social interactions during the period prior to beginning preparation for university entrance examination and during the period of preparation for that examination. Data was collected from 300 freshmen students at the Ankara University Faculty of Educational Sciences. The researchers developed and prepared the survey instrument. The findings of the study demonstrated that the level of students. social interactions were changing in terms of selected variables in the period prior to preparation for taking the university entrance examinations and during the preparation period for that examination. The students. relationship with their families, their engagement in school activities and participation in social activities decreased significantly.Öğe Investigation of the Effectiveness of the Research Skills Teaching Program(Izzet Kara, 2022) Polat, Betul; Kutlu, OmerIn this study, it was investigated whether the Research Skills Teaching Program (RSTP) prepared for elementary school 4th grade students was effective in imparting the sub-skills required for conducting the research process to students. To this end, pretest-posttest control group design; one of the quasi-experimental designs; was employed. The study was conducted on the students attending two classes of a state elementary school. In the experimental group, the program developed on the basis of the Big Six Research Skills Model was administered, while no such special application was conducted in the control group. In both of the groups, the Research Skills Test was administered as pretest and posttest and Monitoring Tests. The collected data were analyzed by using Independent Samples t-test and Paired Samples t-test. The responses given by the experimental and control group students to each of the open-ended items in the Monitoring Tests were separately examined. It was found that the activities developed within the context of the teaching program had comprehensive effect on the development of the skills needed to direct the research process. When the number of the students giving the most correct answers in the items in the monitoring tests was examined, it was seen that although there are students finding the most correct answers to the items in the experimental group, their levels of using these strategies were not found to be at the desired level and there are students in the control group finding the most correct answers only for four skills.Öğe The Effect of Electronic Portfolio Applications on 6th Graders' Research Skills(Turkish Education Assoc, 2016) Demir, Betul Polat; Kutlu, OmerThe purpose of this study is to examine the effect of electronic portfolio applications on 6th graders' research skills. Exploratory design, one of the mixed methods in which qualitative and quantitative techniques are both used, was employed in the study. Whilepretest-posttest paired control group design, one of the the quasi-experimental designs, was used for the study's quantitative dimension; case study, one of the qualitative research designs, were used for the study's qualitative dimension. The study group was made up of 64 6th graders attending two different public middle schools during the second semester of 2014-1015 academic year. Participants numbered 34 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group. During the process, Research Skills Teaching Program (RSTP), developed by the researcher, was administered to experimental and control groups to develop research skills. While electronic portfolio applications were carried out with the students in the experimental group, no other application was carried out with the students in the control group. The application was carried out for 10 weeks and a total of 21 periods for both of the groups. Used for the research, the electronic portfolio portal was developed by web design specialists after the researcher defined the process. While the study's quantitative data were collected by Research Skills Test qualitative data were collected by Semi-Structured Interview Form. The data obtained from the study's quantitative dimension were analyzed with Independent Samples T-Test and Paired Samples T-Test. For the qualitative dimension of the study, the data obtained through interviews were analyzed using content analysis method. The quantitative findings obtained at the end of the study reveal that RSTP increased the research skills of students in the control group. In addition, research findings reveal that research skills education based on electronic portfolio applications increased the experimental group students' level of using research skills significantly compared to control group students. Qualitative findings obtained at the end of the study support the quantitative findings. Qualitative findings showed that electronic portfolio applications were effective on development of students' research skills and students' attitudes and interests towards research.Öğe The Predictors of Elementary School Teacher's Attitudes towards Rubric(TURKISH EDUCATION ASSOC, 2014) Demir, Safiye Bilican; Kutlu, Omer; Yildirim, OzenThis study was determining the factors predicting the elementary school teachers' attitudes towards scoring rubrics. The study was a correlation research model. It included 292 teachers at 17 elementary schools in several districts of Ankara. The data of the study was collected from a teacher survey and "Teacher's Attitude Scale toward Rubric" which was developed by the researchers. Stepwise Multiple Regression Analysis was used in the data analysis of the study to examine the variables which predicted the teachers' attitudes toward rubrics significantly. The results indicated that the most important predictors of attitude were to use rubrics in class to observe students' knowledge and skills whether they use them in their daily life situations and the class size.
