The effect of using digital materials in religious education on student achievement and retention (The case of Imam Hatip High School)
Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, Felsefe ve Din Bilimleri Ana Bilim Dalıİnsanlığın bilgi ve beceri mirasının yeni nesillere aktarımında farklı yol, yöntem ve araç-gereçler kullanılabilmektedir. Günümüzde her yaştan insanın teknoloji ile iç içe bir yaşam sürdüğü ortadadır. Eğitimdeki teknoloji etkileri ise kayda değer bir araştırma alanı sunmaktadır. Özellikle Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı'nın mevcut programı ve yayınlanan yeni program taslağına bakıldığında teknoloji ile sağlıklı bir entegrasyon çabası göze çarpmaktadır. Ancak öğretmenlerin ders anlatım yöntemini etkileyen birçok değişken olması sebebiyle öğretim programlarının ön gördüğü çeşitli beceri ve yaklaşımlar, pratikte tam anlamıyla hayat bulamayabilmektedir. Bu sebeple, dijital materyallerin eğitim ortamlarında kullanılmasının avantaj ve dezavantajlarını incelemenin önemli olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bu düşünce temelinde araştırmanın problem cümlesi "Din eğitiminde dijital materyal kullanımının öğrenci başarısına ve kalıcılığına etkisi nedir?" şeklinde belirlenmiştir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda araştırma, karma yöntemler kapsamında yer alan yakınsayan paralel yöntem esas alınarak tasarlanmıştır. Bu yöntem gereğince araştırmada nicel boyutta 12 hafta boyunca yarı deneysel çalışma yürürütülürken, nitel boyutta durum çalışması kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın örneklemi, 2022-2023 eğitim-öğretim yılında Muş ili Şehit Davut Karaçam Kız Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesi ve Selahaddin Eyyubi Erkek Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesinde öğrenim gören yaklaşık 60 öğrenciden oluşmaktadır. Uygulama öncesinde deney ve kontrol grubu öğrencilerinin ön test puanları arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Uygulama sonrasında, deney grubunda bulunan öğrencilerin son test puanlarıyla kontrol grubunda bulunan öğrencilerin son test puanları arasında deney grubu lehine anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmuştur. Ayrıca deney grubu ve kontrol grubu son test ile kalıcılık testi puanları arasında deney grubu lehine anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmiştir. Görüşmeler ve gözlemlerden elde edilen bulgularda ise, dijital materyallerle yürütülen derslerde öğrencilerin ilgi ve motivasyonlarının arttığı; dijital materyallerin kullanımına ilişkin öğrencilerin olumlu görüşler bildirdiği görülmüştür. Bu araştırmada dijital materyallerin öğrencilerin başarı düzeylerini, öğrendiklerini hatırlama oranlarını artırdığı dolayısıyla da din eğitimi verilirken dijital materyal kullanılmasının öğrenci başarısı ve kalıcılığına olumlu katkıları olabileceği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgular temelinde; öğretmenlerin dijital kaynakları din eğitimine etkili bir şekilde entegre etmelerini sağlayacak şartların oluşturulması, eğitim stratejilerinin bu bağlamda geliştirilmesi ve öğrencilerin dijital okuryazarlık becerileri ve farkındalıklarının arttırılması gibi önerilerde bulunulmuştur.Different ways, methods and tools can be used to transfer the knowledge and skill heritage of humanity to new generations. Today, it is obvious that people of all ages live a life intertwined with technology. The effects of technology in education offer a significant research area. Especially when we look at the current programme of the Ministry of National Education and the published draft of the new programme, a healthy integration effort with technology stands out. However, there are many variables affecting teachers' teaching methods. In this context, various skills and approaches prescribed by the curricula may not be fully implemented in practice. For this reason, it is considered important to examine the advantages and disadvantages of using digital materials in educational environments. On the basis of this idea, the problem statement of the research was determined as 'What is the effect of using digital materials in religious education on student success and retention?'. For this purpose, the research was designed based on the convergent parallel method within the scope of mixed method. In accordance with this design, a quasi-experimental study was carried out for 12 weeks in the quantitative dimension, while a case study was used in the qualitative dimension. The sample of the study consists of approximately 60 students studying at Şehit Davut Karaçam Girls' Anatolian Imam Hatip High School and Selahaddin Eyyubi Boys' Anatolian Imam Hatip High School in Muş province in the 2022-2023 academic year. Before the application, there was no significant difference between the pre-test scores of the experimental and control group students. After the application, a significant difference was found between the post-test scores of the students in the experimental group and the post-test scores of the students in the control group in favour of the experimental group. In addition, a significant difference was found between the post-test and retention test scores of the experimental group and the control group in favour of the experimental group. In the findings obtained from interviews and observations, it was seen that the interest and motivation of the students increased in the lessons carried out with digital materials and that the students expressed positive opinions about the use of digital materials. In this study, it was concluded that digital materials increase the success level of students and the rate of remembering what they have learnt, and therefore, the use of digital materials in religious education can make positive contributions to student success and retention. On the basis of the findings obtained from the research, suggestions were made such as creating conditions that will enable teachers to effectively integrate digital resources into religious education, developing educational strategies in this context, and increasing students' digital literacy skills and awareness
Sosyal Medya’da Tüketim Anlayışı: Bireylerin Instagram’daki Alış-Veriş Pratikleri
Yeni medyanın insan hayatına girmesiyle ve gelişmesiyle beraber bireyler zamanının çoğunu sosyal medya ortamlarında geçirmeye başlamıştır. Zamanla kullanıcıların iletişim süreçlerinden algılarına, alışveriş pratiklerine kadar pek çok şeyi değiştirmiştir. Sosyal medya platformları arasında en çok kullanılan Instagram’da ilk çıkışından bu yana birçok değişim göstermiştir. Instagram ilk çıkış noktası olan fotoğraf paylaşımından günümüze bireyler tarafından alışveriş için de tercih edilen bir mecraya dönüşmüştür. Bu çalışmada sosyal medya platformlardan tüketim alışkanlığına yön verdiği düşünülen Instagram platformu ele alınmaktadır. Çalışmada hedeflenen Instagram’da yapılan alış-veriş örneği ile sosyal medyanın tüketim alışkanlarını nasıl değiştirdiği ve dönüştürdüğünü tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada derinlemesine görüşme tekniği kullanılarak İzmir’de yaşayan 25-40 yaş aralığındaki 10 instagram kullanıcısı ile görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucuna bakıldığında eğitim ve gelir düzeyinin Instagram alışverişlerinde belirleyici olmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Instagram son zamanların en çok kullanılan ve alışveriş yapılan mecrasına dönüşmüştür ve bu sayı gitgide arttığı bulgusuna ulaşılmıştır
A Comparison of the Functioning and Disability Levels of Children With Hemiplegic and Diplegic Cerebral Palsy Based on ICF-CY Components
We compared children with hemiplegic and diplegic cerebral palsy (CP) using the conceptual framework of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health: Child and Youth version (ICF-CY). We enrolled 42 children with CP aged 5 - 13 years old (M age = 9.57, SD = 2.8 years). We assessed their trunk control and dynamic balance with the Trunk Control Measurement Scale (TCMS) and the Timed Up and Go test (TUG), and we used ABILHAND-Kids and Assessment of Life Habits (Life-H) to assess their manual ability and participation with activities of daily living. We administered the European Child Environment Questionnaire (ECEQ) to identify relevant environmental factors. We employed structural equation modeling (SEM) to identify specific factors contributing to potential differences between these CP groups. Children with hemiplegic CP demonstrated significantly better outcomes in terms of trunk control, dynamic balance, and environmental factors compared to those with diplegic CP (p < .05). In contrast, children with diplegic CP demonstrated superior outcomes regarding manual ability, compared to those with hemiplegic CP (p < .001). In our structural equation models, trunk control strongly predicted both dynamic balance (0.75) and environmental factors (0.74). Moreover, the relationships between trunk control and participation in daily and social activities were 0.54 and 0.47, respectively. Impaired trunk control and dynamic balance were significant contributors to increased activity restrictions and environmental barriers in children with diplegic CP. This suggests that improving disability and functioning in children with diplegic CP requires a focus on trunk control training and dynamic balance exercises

EFIKASNOST NDVI SA GGE BIPLOT MODELOM U ODRE?IVANJU GENOTIPA VISOKO PRINOSNE DURUM PŠENICE (Triticum durum Desf.)
The use of spectral indices such as normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI) is becoming an important element in the evaluation of physiological traits in cereal crops. Determining the correlation between spectral readings taken at different phenological stages of wheat plants and grain yield (GY) is crucial. This study aimed to demonstrate the effectiveness of NDVI in combination with the GGE biplot model in identifying high yielding durum wheat genotypes. Field experiments were conducted in multiple environments and growth stages to evaluate the relationship between NDVI and grain yield (GY). Twenty-five durum wheat genotypes were tested for two years under rainfed and supplementary irrigation conditions using a split plot experimental design. The results showed significant positive correlations between NDVI and GY, especially at the generative stages under rain-fed conditions. In contrast, NDVI at the grain-filling stage showed a weaker relationship with GY under supplemental irrigation. Genotypes exhibiting high NDVI values up to the stem elongation stage tended to have lower grain yields, emphasizing the importance of considering growth stage dynamics. GGE biplot analysis provided visual information on genotype-trait relationships, helping to identify genotypes with consistent performance in different environments. This study highlights that NDVI can be used to predict yield potential and guide selection in durum wheat breeding programs and the GGE biplot model serves as a valuable tool for genotype evaluation and selection. © (2024), (Serbian Genetics Society).

Relationship of Cryptocurrency Trading to Quality of Life, Sleep and Stress Levels in Academics
Background: Cryptocurrency trading has become popular with a large section of society, and the number of investors is increasing daily. It is critical to address the health impacts of cryptocurrency trading. Of particular importance is the issue of how such trading affects mental health. Research should be conducted on this topic, and where necessary, national governments should develop policies to combat these effects. Aims: This study was conducted to examine the relationship of cryptocurrency trading to quality of life, sleep, and stress levels in academics. Method: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with 437 academics working at a state university in Turkey. A Personal Information Form, the SF-12 Quality of Life Scale, the Scopa Sleep Scale, and the Perceived Stress Scale were used to collect data. These data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 and G*Power 3.1 programs. Results: The data obtained in this study were analyzed using SPSS program (SPSS-25). The effect size and r-effect size were calculated with Cohen's d value. It was found that the mean scores for the SF- 12 Quality of Life Scale were statistically lower in academics who traded cryptocurrency than in those who did not. The results showed that the mean scores for the Scopa Sleep Scale and Perceived Stress Scale were statistically higher in academics who traded cryptocurrency than in those who did not (p<0.05). Discussion: The academics who traded cryptocurrency had more negative health outcomes when compared to those who did not. Social awareness should be raised on the negative effects of cryptocurrency trading. A limitation of the study is that only data obtained from the statements of the participants were included in the study. The study may have some generalizability to other academics, but has less generalizability to populations other than academics. Implications for Health Care Provision and Use: Cryptocurrency trading is a significant public health problem. Although cryptocurrency trading has been found to profoundly affect mental health (sleep, stress, and quality of life), the current policies that address these problems are generally inadequate in terms of implementing and sustaining mental healthcare systems. The limitations of these health policies prevent many individuals in society from receiving high quality services. Implications for Health Policies: Health systems alone cannot solve the systemic problems that lead to the population's dependence of mental health services and institutions. In order to solve this basic problem, it may be necessary for governments to increase individuals' basic incomes and develop specific mental health policies for people engaged in cryptocurrency trading. Implications for Further Research: Future studies should examine expert perspectives on mental health services in different contexts (e.g., behavioral addiction services), collect targeted feedback, and explore issues such as strategic planning and funding stability. Effective decisions should be made regarding the implementation and maintenance of treatment for behavioral addictions.This study was presented as an oral presentation at the ISPEC-7th International Conference on Medical & Health Sciences on July 6 and 8, 2023. The datasets used and/or analyzed during the current study are available from corresponding author on reasonable request. All the academics who partic-ipated the study are thanked for their cooperation during the data collection
Nature (Phusis) and Freedom in Ancient Greek Myths
Analysing the issue of freedom in ancient Greek thought can be possible by addressing the conception of nature. Freedom is, in any case, an ambiguous concept, and attempts to define it are therefore often examples of a onesided approach. There is no equivalent word for freedom in the language of the period in question, but this does not mean that freedom is not a problem there. Because in every context where there is interaction between people, freedom is something that is already there as a problematic. In this study, firstly, a summary of the narrative of the universe shaped by births in Ancient Greek myths was given. After mentioning the inclusion of man in this universe, the changes that occurred in man after Prometheus stole and delivered fire were evaluated in the context of freedom. Thus, the problematic of freedom in Ancient Greek myths in the context of the understanding of nature was determined. It is emphasised that freedom, whether divine or human, is registered with the conception of nature and it is argued that the problematic of freedom can only be addressed by evaluating the conception of 'nature' of the period
STATISTICALLY p c-CONVERGENCE IN LATTICE-NORMED LOCALLY SOLID RIESZ SPACES
In this paper, we introduce the concept of the statistical convergence with respect to solid topology and Riesz valued norms on lattice-normed locally solid Riesz spaces. Moreover, we give the notions of statistically p c -bounded and statistically p c -dense sequence, and we introduce statistically p c -continuous and statistically p c -bounded operators. We also investigate some properties and examples of these concepts
Determination of Deformation Behaviors and Energy Absorption of Lightweight Composite Lattice Cylinders With Different Structures
The aim of this study is to determine the crushing performance of four different composite lattice cylinder structures (hexagonal, circular, square, and triangular) under quasistatic compression loading using the finite element method. The numerical model was developed by performing progressive damage analysis with the MAT-54 material model in the LS-DYNA finite element software. The crushing performance (peak force (PF), mean crushing force (MCF), crushing force efficiency (CFE), and specific energy absorption (SEA)) and damage types of composite cylinders for different lattice structures, specimen thicknesses, lengths, material types and compression directions (axial and tangential) were determined and compared with results from other studies in the literature. At the end of the study, it was determined that the PCF value of the square lattice structure was 19.3% higher than hexagonal lattice structure, 37.6% higher than the circular lattice structure, and 33.4% higher than triangular lattice structure for axial loading. The AL specimen exhibited the highest EA value with 171 J, while the CFRP specimen had the highest SEA value with 4.2 J/g. The CFE value was the highest for the AL specimen. The deformation behavior of lattice cylinders varied primarily according to the cell type
Kur’an Perspektifinden Medineli Yahudilerin İslâm Davetine Yönelik Yaklaşımlarının Eleştirisi
İslâm’a davet, Kur’an’ın nüzûlüyle başlamış, Mekke döneminde bütün engelleme ve baskılara rağmen süreç, kesintiye uğramaksızın devam etmiştir. Hicretle birlikte davet açısından yeni bir dönem başlamıştır. İslâm daveti, Medineli müşrik Araplar arasında hızla olumlu karşılık bulmuştur. Fakat bu davet, Medine’nin kadim sakinlerinden olan Yahudiler arasında aynı seviyede bir teveccühe mazhar olmamıştır. Medineli Yahudiler, davet karşısında yekpare bir yaklaşım sergilememişlerdir. Ön yargılarından ve mahalle baskısından kurtulanlar, beklenen son peygamberin Hz. Muhammed (s.a.s.) olduğuna muknî olup ihtida etmişlerdir. Bazıları ise dünyevî çıkarlarını korumak amacıyla ya da İslâm dinini içten çökertmek hedefiyle Müslüman kisvesine bürünmeyi tercih etmiştir. Bunların yanında Yahudilerin büyük çoğunluğu ise ahir zaman peygamberi ve vahiyle alakalı çeşitli bahaneler üreterek ya da bazı iddiaların arkasına sığınarak İslâm davetini reddetmiştir. Bu minvalde üretilen bahaneler ve ileri sürülen iddialar gerçeklikten kopuk olmanın yanı sıra bazıları çelişkilidir. Kur’an perspektifinden Medineli Yahudilerin İslâm davetine yönelik yaklaşımlarının kritik edilmesinin hedeflendiği bu çalışmada, doküman analizi metoduna başvurulmuştur
