In this study, it is aimed to inspect qualifications and attitudes of mathematics teacher candidates regarding application of technopedagogical knowledge in mathematics lessons. 26 (21 Female and 5 Male) teacher candidates from Pedagogical Formation Group of Education Faculty of Aegean University in spring semester of 2012-2013 Educational -Training year have participated to the study. 9 hours of training in total was provided for 3 weeks, 3 hours per week was provided on using Geogebra Application software, which is one of the utility programs to enable mathematics teachers to integrate technology to the lessons. Computer Aided Mathematics Teaching Questionnaire was performed to the participants both before and after trainings consisted of 30 Clauses as five point Likert scale. The results of conducted survey are analysed using T-test. According to the data obtained, it is understood that participants who received computer training have a more positive attitudes towards applying techno-pedagogic knowledge in their lessons than those who did not received computer training. At the same time, it is observed that the participants who are more interested with computer use have a more positive attitude towards applying techno-pedagogic knowledge in their lessons than those who have less interested with using computer. The ideas of participants are obtained on the training provided by researchers and on Geogebra software by submitting an semi-structured interview form consisted of three questions prepared by researchers along with the survey. Reliability formulation developed by Miles and Huberman (1994) is used for the reliability of the analysis of qualitative data obtained from semi-structured interview form. Data gathered from semi structured interview form are interpreted by separating them into three subjects. It is concluded that provided training was enhanced techno-pedagogic qualifications of candidate mathematics teachers.
Clothing fit is one of the important factors affecting consumers’ purchasing behaviour and clothing satisfaction. The aim of this study was to develop a mobile-based body size calculator program to compare standard mass production body measurements with female body measurements taken individually. Another aim of the study was to investigate the effects of size difference between the body measurements taken individually and mass productionbased measurements on pattern drafting. At the end of the study, the program developed was run, the differences between the patterns examined and pattern modifications made according to the results obtained.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
