Doğrusal ve İkinci Dereceden Örüntüleri Genelleştirme Stratejileri: 6-8. Sınıf Öğrencilerinin Karşılaştırılması
Different representations of patterns have positive effects on the formation of the basis of algebra. Hence, it is important to investigate the strategies about pattern generalization for students’ future learning about algebra. Thus, this study aims to define the generalizations about linear and quadratic patterns and also comparing the generalization strategies of 6th – 8th grades. The sample consisted of 18 students at 6th, 7th and 8th grades. The data collection tool has 4 problems and the collected data is classified through the generalization strategies in the related literature. The findings illustrate those at all linear and quadratic patterns, the variety and the correct generalization abilities are increasing due to the increasing of students’ grades. Generally, most of the students used recursive or additive strategies, but only a few number of students used explicit strategies. Örüntülerin farklı biçimlerde temsil edilmesi, cebir’in temel kavramlarının oluşumuna katkı sağlamaktadır. Bu nedenle öğrencilerin farklı örüntü çeşitleriyle ilgili genelleştirme stratejilerinin irdelenmesi, daha sonraki cebir öğrenimi için önemlidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, 6-8. sınıf öğrencilerinin doğrusal ve ikinci dereceden örüntülerle ilgili genelleştirme stratejilerini belirlemek ve karşılaştırmaktır. Araştırma 6, 7 ve 8. sınıfta öğrenim gören toplam 18 öğrenci ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Dört sorudan oluşan veri toplama aracından elde edilen veriler, daha önce yapılan araştırmalardaki genelleştirme stratejileri dikkate alınarak sınıflandırılmıştır. Sonuç olarak doğrusal ve ikinci dereceden örüntülerin tümünde, 6-8. sınıf öğrencilerinin öğrenim seviyesi arttıkça örüntü genelleştirme stratejilerindeki çeşitlilik ve doğru genellemeye ulaşma yeterliliklerinin arttığı görülmüştür. Öğrenciler genel olarak yinelemeli veya eklemeli stratejiyi kullanırken, fonksiyonel stratejiyi kullanan öğrencilerin sayısı oldukça azdır
Can robotics be taught online?: Changes in robotics teaching during the pandemic
COVID-19 salgını ile birlikte ortaokullarda yüz yüze yürütülen derslerin çevrimiçi öğrenme ortamlarında yürütülmeye başlanması, derslerin hazırlık ve sunulma sürecinde değişiklikler meydana getirmiştir. Bilişim Teknolojileri ve Yazılımı (BTY) dersi kapsamında öğretilen Robotik kodlama, kavramsal bilgilerin yanında farklı becerileri öğretmeyi de amaçlayan çoğunlukla uygulamalı yürütülen bir ders olduğu için çevrimiçi eğitim sürecinde öğretmenler için fazla çaba gerektiren bir ders halini almıştır. Bu çalışmada, çevrimiçi ders sürecinde robotik kodlama öğretiminde meydana gelen değişimleri tarama ve mülakat yöntemleri birlikte kullanılarak ortaya konulmuştur. Çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak anket kullanılmıştır. Türkiye’nin farklı bölgelerinde özel ve devlet okullarında görev yapmakta olan 307 robotik dersi veren öğretmenler anketi cevaplamıştır. Ayrıca, ankete katılan öğretmenler arasından belirlenen 15 öğretmen ile mülakat yapılmıştır. Sonuç olarak; çevrimiçi robotik öğretim sürecinde yüz yüze robotik öğretimine göre en belirgin değişimler öğretim ortamı ve kullanılan araçlarda meydana geldiği belirlenmiştir. Bununla birlikte robotik öğretim sürecini robotik ders içerikleri, teknolojik altyapı, ders içi ve ders dışı etmenlerin etkilediği ortaya çıkmıştır. Son olarak çevrimiçi ders sürecinde robotik öğreticilerinin birden fazla öğretim yöntemini bir arada kullandıkları ve yüz yüze ortama göre öğrenme çıktılarında farklılıklar olduğu bulunmuştur. Bu doğrultuda çevrimiçi derslerde uygun araç/ortamların kullanılması, çevrimiçi derste uygulanabilir ders planlarının oluşturulması, çevrimiçi ders sürecini aktif kılacak öğretim yöntem ve tekniklerinden faydalanılması ile robotik eğitimi çevrimiçi olarak da gerçekleştirilebilir. Bu çalışmanın, çevrimiçi robotik öğretim süreçlerinin yürütülmesinde teorik ve pratik çalışmalara katkı sağlayabileceği değerlendirilmektedir.Along with the COVID-19 epidemic, there have been changes in the process of conducting face-toface lessons in secondary schools in online learning environments, and in the preparation and presentation of the lessons. In this study, the changes in the online course process of robotics teaching conducted within the scope of Information Technologies course were investigated by using survey and interview methods together. Participants were 307 Robotics teachers working in private and public schools in Turkey. Interviews were conducted with 15 Robotic coding teachers, who were selected from the participants who were surveyed. Results showed that, during online robotics teaching, the most significant changes occurred in the teaching environment and the tools used compared to face-to-face robotics teaching. Results also showed that robotics course contents, technological infrastructure, in-course and extra-curricular factors affect the robotics teaching process. Finally, robotics instructors used more than one teaching method together during online teaching and there were differences in learning outcomes according to the face-to-face environment. In this context, robotics education can also be conducted online by using appropriate tools/environments in online lessons, creating applicable lesson plans in online lessons, and making use of teaching methods and techniques that will make the online lesson interactive. It is hoped that this study will contribute to online learning studies in defining online robotics teaching

Flipped learning design in EFL classrooms: implementing self-regulated learning strategies to develop language skills
*Öztürk, Mücahit ( Aksaray, Yazar )This study examined the development of students’ language skills in a flipped English
foreign language course designed with self-regulated learning strategies. The study was
conducted with a quasi-experimental design. While the experimental group received
the course through flipped classroom model designed with self-regulated learning
strategies, control group did not use self-regulated learning strategies in the flipped
classroom model. The results indicated that self-regulated learning strategies positively
affected the development of foreign language skills in the flipped classroom model. A
significant difference in favor of the group working with the platform including selfregulated learning strategies outperformed in speaking, reading, writing, and grammar
test scores. However, no significant difference in the listening test results was foun
Flipped classroom with problem based activities: Exploring self-regulated learning in a programming language course
This study intended to explore the development of self-regulation in a flipped classroom setting. Problem based learning activities were carried out in flipped classrooms to promote self-regulation. A total of 30 undergraduate students from Mechatronic department participated in the study. Self-regulation skills were discussed through students' and the instructor's experiences including their opinions and behaviours. Qualitative data was collected with an observation form, discussion messages and interviews with selected participants. As a result, in terms of self-regulated learning, the goal setting and planning, task strategies and help seeking skills of the students were high in the face to face learning designed with problem based activities through flipped classroom model, their goal setting and planning, task strategies and help seeking skills were appeared moderately. In the home sessions, environment structuring, goal setting and planning skills were developed in high level while task strategies, help seeking, time management, monitoring, selfefficacy and self-evaluation skills were moderate and monitoring skills was lower. Consequently, it is hoped that the study may provide some suggestions for using problem based activities in flipped learning
