Öz. Bu çalışmanın amacı ortaokullarda görevli fen bilimleri, matematik ve bilişim teknolojileri öğretmenlerinin fen-teknoloji-mühendislik-matematik (FeTeMM) eğitimi farkındalıklarının farklı değişkenlere göre değerlendirilmesidir. Yapılan bu araştırma, öğretmenlerin FeTEMM farkındalıklarının doğrudan öğrenilmesine yönelik nicel bir veri aracının kullanıldığı tarama modelinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada seçkisiz olmayan örnekleme yöntemlerinden uygun örnekleme yöntemi benimsenmiştir. Araştırmanın örneklemini, Karaman merkeze bağlı ortaokullarda görev yapan 118 fen, matematik ve bilişim öğretmeni oluşturmuştur. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak Buyruk ve Korkmaz'ın (2016) geliştirmiş oldukları 'FeTeMM Farkındalık Ölçeği' kullanılmıştır. Ölçek katılımcılara uygulandıktan sonra ölçeğin tekrar geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışmaları yapılmıştır. Olumlu ve olumsuz FeTeMM farkındalığı olmak üzere 2 alt boyuttan oluşan ölçeğin her bir boyutu ile cinsiyet ve branş değişkenleri arasında herhangi bir anlamlılık bulunamamıştır. Ancak mezun olunan fakülte türü, eğitim durumları ve mesleki kıdem değişkenleri ile ölçeğin her iki boyutu arasında anlamlılıklar bulunmuştur. Sonuçta eğitim fakültesi mezunu olan öğretmenler ile genç öğretmenlerin olumlu yönde FeTeMM farkındalığı var iken, mesleki kıdemi fazla olan öğretmenler ve ön lisans mezunu öğretmenlerin olumsuz yönde FeTeMM farkındalıklarının olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır.
This study aims to predict the academic achievements of Turkish and Malaysian vocational and technical high school (VTS) students in science courses (physics, chemistry and biology) through artificial neural networks (ANN) and to put forth the measures to be taken against their failure. The study population consisted of 10th and 11th grade 922 VTS students in Turkey and 1050 VTS students in Malaysia. The study was conducted with the screening model, and a 34-item demographic questionnaire was developed for the collection of data Using the SPSS 24.0, the KR20 reliability coefficient of the questionnaire was found to be .90. The items in the questionnaire that were believed to affect academic achievement were accepted as independent variable/input, and the academic achievement averages of students in the previous year's physics, chemistry and biology courses were considered as dependent variables/output. Using these parameters, a model was created and the academic achievements of the students were predicted with ANN using the Matlab R2016a program. At the end of the study, a successful academic achievement prediction system was developed with an average 98.0% sensitivity over 922 samples for Turkey and with a 95.7% sensitivity over 1050 samples for Malaysia, and the measures to be taken were determined in order the prevent failure of students.
The private security sector has gained a great momentum in recent years, which leads to competition among institutions providing private security training. This competition can sometimes lead to debate about whether companies can provide efficient and sufficient training in private security training institutions with an operating license in order to maintain their existence in the long term, to provide sustainable competitive advantage and an average profit return. Within the scope of the law, private security education is available both in private security education institutions and in associate degree programs of universities. As a result of the trainings given in private security training institutions, Private Security Officers (PSO) have been trained in Vocational Schools of Universities (VSoU) and training activities are carried out in Private Security and Protection Programs. The purpose of the study is to reveal the profile of private security education in Turkey and Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC). Thus, the study will be grounded on a basis especially by comparing private security training differences. The different MODULE programs are applied to PSOs who will work in specific fields in TRNC private security training. In this context, in order to improve private security education in Turkey, this program can be included in the course content of Private Security and Protection Programs within the vocational schools by making use of the MODULE based program.
