The aim of this study is to develop a diagnostic scale to measure the influence of digital dependency, which has swiftly been a part of today's standards of living, on individuals in quite a tangible way and to carry out a validity-reliability study on this scale. The sample group of the scale consists of 450 university students (264 female and 286 male) studying at Cumhuriyet University in the 2017-2018 academic year. The scale has five-point Likert type and has been initially converted into a draft questionnaire consisting of 53 items. In accordance with the feedbacks from the field experts, some alterations have been employed, then it is made ready for pre-application. After the preliminary test, factor loadings below .30 are subtracted from the scale and structural validity has been ensured. The scale is concluded with 40 items possessing high internal consistency in the measurement tool. It has been determined that the KMO value of the scale is .94; Bartlett test .00 (p <.01); the released variance is 64.7% in the factor analysis of the scale. As a result of the confirmatory factor analysis, while the inter-item fit index is found to be significant in the Chi-square value (x 2 = 756.20, N = 450, sd = 278, p = 0.00); it is detected that RMSEA: 0.075, SRMR: 0.14, GFI: 0.87, AGFI: 0.91, CFI: 0.98, IFI: 0.98, NFI: 0.093; x 2 / df = 2.78. The Cronbach's alpha (a) internal consistency coefficient of the scale is found to be .976. Considering the data obtained, with respect to its validity and reliability, it is assumed that the 40-item-scale for aged 19 or older will close the gap in the field and contribute to the literature.
Currently, lecturing dominates higher education as the most frequently used method due to certain conditions in this context. Various methods and techniques have been developed and some research studies have been carried out to help learners avoid being passive listeners in a context where lecturing is frequently used. This study aims to research how listening to different lecture types (informative, narrative and philosophical) by notetaking affects listening comprehension. The study, carried out in the Department of Turkish Language Teaching at the Faculty of Education, Cumhuriyet University, adopts an experimental design with a pretest and posttest. To analyze the data, t-test was carried out using SPSS 18. According to the results of the study, there were higher levels of comprehension for all three lecture types in favour of the participants who took notes while listening to the lectures. It is recommended that learners be trained to acquire active learning, active listening and note-taking skills.
Bu çalışmada; lisansüstü eğitiminin sürece ilişkin işleyişi gözden geçirilerek, eğitim bilimleri alanındaki katılımcıların bakış açısıyla sorunları ve bu sorunlara ilişkin çözüm önerilerinin geliştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma tarama modelinde yapılmış olup nitel araştırma deseni kullanılmıştır. Çalışma grubunu Türkiye’de bulunan 7 Coğrafi bölge içerisinden her bölgeden lisansüstü eğitim yapan köklü ve geleneksel kültürü oluşmuş üniversitelerden en az bir üniversite olması koşuluyla belirlenen 15 lisansüstü ve 15 öğretim üyesi olmak üzere 30 katılımcı çalışma grubunu oluşturmaktadır. Verilerin toplanması amacıyla katılımcılara; yarı yapılandırılmış olarak hazırlanan; eğitim bilimlerinde lisansüstü eğitim çalışmalarının bilim adamı yetiştirmedeki rolü ve eğitim hedeflerine katkısı, lisansüstünde görülen genel aksaklıklar, lisansüstü eğitim geliştirilmesine yönelik çözüm önerilerinin belirlenmesini amaçlayan 4 adet soru yöneltilmiştir. Soruların içerik ve frekans analizi yapıldıktan sonra NVİVO paket programı kullanılarak şema halinde görselleştirilmiştir. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgulara göre; lisansüstü eğitime girişte yapılan öğrenci seçiminde, danışman ve öğrencilerin hazırbulunuşluk düzeylerinde, öğrenme ortamlarının öğretimsel boyutunda, ders içerikleri ve yapılan tezlerin genel nitelikleri üzerinde bazı aksaklıkların olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu sorunların çözümüne yönelik olarak öğretim üyelerinin ders sayısının azaltılması, lisansüstü eğitimde öğretim üyelerinin niteliklerini arttırıcı tedbirlerin alınması, çalışma koşullarının gözden geçirilmesi, lisansüstü eğitime giriş sınavı olan ALES’ in içerik olarak yeniden yapılandırılarak, öğrencilerin kişisel özellikleriyle alana ilişkin özelliklerini örtüştürerek ölçen bir sınav aracı haline getirilmesi gibi öneriler yapılmıştır.
This chapter examines the impacts of social media on children. Advantages and disadvantages of social media are always available. Positive aspects of social media include allowing children to be brought up as multicultural individuals, enabling education and training environments to design for purposes, using as the main or supplementary source of education, a great power in creating and sharing information. Its negative aspects include leading to a reduction of their academic, social, and cognitive skills in the early periods when children were exposed to the social media, causing the children to develop obesity, mostly bringing up as consumption-centered individuals, perceive the world as a screenshot, and have low critical, creative, and reflective thinking skills. Therefore, one of the most important tasks undertaken to reduce or eliminate the negative effects is to raise and educate media-literate individuals.
