Fraction Models Used by Primary School Teachers
Full text linkFractions and anything related to fractions are among the mathematics subjects that are challenging for primary school students to comprehend probably due to the fact that fractions have multiple meanings in different circumstances. Primary school teachers could overcome this challenge using various fraction models to facilitate students’ understanding the concept of fraction. With this in mind, the current study aimed to reveal the fraction models used by these teachers when teaching fractions. Accordingly, those used by 14 teachers were analyzed to see whether the meaning of fraction differs depending on the models used. This qualitative study adopted the single case research model. The data were collected from primary school teachers through a semi-structured interview form and descriptively analyzed. The study has concluded that the cluster model, the area model, and the length model are the most preferred models by the teachers and that their choice of models in teaching fractions differs across the sub-constructs of fractions

In-game Language Usages of Students Playing Online Games: The Sample of League of Legends
Full text linkThe present study aims at examining in-game language usages of students playing online games. It was conducted with the case study design of the qualitative research methods. The study group consisted of 10 participants who were determined by using criterion sampling method. Semi-structured interview form, observation notes and voice recordings were used in the data collection process. The collected data were analysed by content analysis technique. In the application part of the research, two game environments were designed, in which the use of language was not restricted and then the use of expressions of foreign origin was prohibited. During the first game, it was revealed that the participants playing League of Legends produced mixed expressions in Turkish and English and used them frequently in the in-game communication. In the second game, the participants continued to use these expressions voluntarily or involuntarily, although the use of expressions of foreign origin was restricted. The observations of the researchers supported these data, as well. Although the game was designed entirely in Turkish, the participants thought that it was very difficult to use merely Turkish for in-game communication. In addition, it was emphasized that the Turkish-English mixed expressions used in the game process were important for comfortable communication and this communication style became a pattern
