Scientific efficiency of education institutes located at Marmara Region excluding İstanbul metropolitian area, Türkiye
No full textSon dönemlerde özellikle 2000'li yılların başından itibaren yükseköğretim kurumlarına mevcut sorumluluklarına ilave olarak yeni görevler yüklenmiştir. Gelişmiş ülkelerde bu kurumlar, bilginin üretildiği ve teknoloji transferinin gerçekleştiği merkezler olarak görülmeye başlanmıştır. Bu alanda başarılı olabilmek için ilgili kurumun genellikle bir akademik ekosistem içinde yer alması, araştırma-geliştirme faaliyetlerini üst düzeyde yapması ve bilimsel yayın verimin yüksek olması esastır. Yazar tarafından daha önce Marmara bölgesindeki (İstanbul şehri hariç) yükseköğretim kurumlarının öğretim yapısı ve öğretim kalitesiyle ilgili bir çalışma yapılmış ve oluşması muhtemel bir akademik ekosistem için öneriler getirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada ise aynı yükseköğretim kurumlarının bilimsel çalışmaları dikkate alınarak, temel bazı kriterler esasında yayın kaliteleri ile bilimsel alanda kurumsal performansları incelenmiştir. Çalışma için bütünüyle YÖKAK Sisteminden alınan 2021 yılına ait veriler kullanılmış ve o yıl için her bir üniversite için SCI, Q1, toplam yayın ve atıf sayıları dikkate alınmıştır. Ayrıca her kurum için uluslararası işbirliği ile sanayi işbirliği sonucunda oluşan ve ilk yüzde onluk dilimde yer alan dergilerde yayımlanmış çalışma sayıları da kullanılmıştır. Bu verilerin kendi aralarındaki ilişkilerden ve öğretim üyesi başına düşen yayın sayılarından bir değerlendirme yapılmış ve ilgili yükseköğretim kurumları arasında her kontrol kriteri esasında nispi bir sıralama oluşturulmuştur. Çalışma sonuçları göstermiştir ki; ilgili kurumların öğretim yapısı ve kalitesiyle ile ilgili temel değerlendirmeler bilimsel verimleri esasında da geçerlidir. Bölgede bulunan ve bu çalışmada dikkate alınan 15 yükseköğretim kurumu, çok farklı bilimsel verime sahiptir.Recently, especially since the beginning of the 2000s, higher education institutions have been given new duties in addition to their existing responsibilities. In developed countries, these institutions have begun to be seen as centers where knowledge is produced and technology transfer takes place. In order to be successful in this field, it is essential that the relevant institution is generally included in an academic ecosystem, research and development activities are carried out at a high level and scientific publications are carried out a lot. A study was conducted by the author on the teaching structure and teaching quality of higher education institutions in the Marmara region (excluding the city of Istanbul) and suggestions were made for a possible academic ecosystem. In this study, considering the scientific studies of the same higher education institutions, their publication quality and institutional performance in the scientific field were taken into account on the basis of some basic criteria. For the study, the data of 2021, taken entirely from the YÖKAK System, were used and SCI, Q1, total publication and citation numbers were taken into account for each university for that year. In addition, the number of studies published in the top ten percent of the journals, which are the result of international cooperation and industry cooperation, were also used for each institution. An evaluation was made from the relations between these data and the number of publications per faculty member, and a relative ranking was established among the relevant higher education institutions on the basis of each control criterio
Investigation of the effects of computer-aided animations on conceptual understanding through metaphors: An example of artificial intelligence
No full textIn this study, it was aimed to investigate the change in the conceptual understanding of "artificial intelligence". For this purpose, the determination of the metaphors related to the concept of artificial intelligence in the stages before and after watching the artificial intelligence-themed computer-aided animation developed within the scope of the study, and the assessment of change between them constituted the research problem. During the 2021-2022 academic year 39 Information Technologies (IT) teachers and 103 fifth grade students studying in a secondary school in Nilüfer District of Bursa participated in this study. A phenomenological design pattern was adopted throughout the research. In the first stage of the study, many concepts were revealed as a result of the questionnaire applied to determine the concepts that were difficult to teach by IT teachers, and among them the concept of "artificial intelligence" was determined. In the second stage of the study, students were asked to complete the statement "Artificial intelligence is like … because ..." to determine the metaphorical perceptions on the concept of artificial intelligence. Based on the themes obtained from the metaphor results, computer-aided animation on the concept of artificial intelligence was developed by the researchers. After the animation demonstration to students, the metaphorical data collection process was repeated and it was attempted to determine the change in the students' understanding of the concept of artificial intelligence. As a result of the study, although the conceptual categories regarding artificial intelligence generally had similar characteristics, it was observed that the justifications in the post-animation conceptual perceptions were more meaningful
Introductory Chapter: Tunnel Engineering – Rock Load Estimation and Support Design Methods
No full textThe death of the author and the birth of AI as a scriptor
Get PDFRecent advances in Artificial Intelligence and machine learning prove that while in its earlier forms, computer technologies and artificial intelligence were mainly used as a tool to aid the production of an art work, it now possesses the ability/intelligence to create, and hence becomes eligible to be treated as an author, who might lay claims to agency and autonomy. Deriving from this point, this study aims to explore the position of AI as an author and its implications for literary studies
Open and arthroscopic excision of the distal clavicle for osteoarthritis of the acromioclavicular joint--results over 5 years
Get PDFObjective: Initially performed as open surgery, arthroscopic applications of distal clavicle excision (DCE) have gained prevalence in recent years. Literature reviews about the long-term results give no clear indication that one method is superior to the other.
This study aims to compare the follow-up results of patients treated with arthroscopic and open DCE for more than five years and to detect the superiority of each method.
Material and Method: The study involved 328 patients treated with DCE between February 2008 and April 2017. One hundred and fourteen patients (66 male and 48 female; 81 arthroscopic and 33 open surgery), who had their records available and under went no other surgery than DCE, were included in the study. The Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were used to assess post-DCE shoulder functions and pain, respectively. Within the study's scope, surgery duration, excision extent, complications (frozen shoulder, hematoma, surgical site infection, and instability), and revisions were compared.
Results: In the >5-year follow-up process, no statistically significant difference was observed between pre-DCE DASH and VAS values or between post-DCE DASH and VAS values of the two groups, one involving 32 patients who underwent open surgery and the other involving 82 patients treated with arthroscopic surgery. However, there was a statistically significant difference between the pre- and post-DCE DASH and VAS scores of both groups, and it was observed that both surgical methods were effective. No statistically significant difference was observed between the two groups regarding the surgery duration. Arthroscopic DCE was measured to be 4.70 mm on average, while the average measure for open surgery was 5.53 mm, which indicated a statistically significant difference between the two groups. However, no significant association was observed between the excision extent and the DASH and VAS scores. Furthermore, no significant difference was observed between complication and revision rates.
Conclusion: In the >5-year follow-up of patients who underwent arthroscopic or open DCE due to their acromioclavicular joint osteoarthritis, which could not be treated with conservative treatment, no statistically significant difference was observed in the two
groups' post-DCE DASH scores, VAS scores, complication rates, and revision rates. There was, however, a statistically significant difference between both groups' pre- and post-DCE VAS and DASH scores, and both methods were effective

No full textThe student profiles of higher education institutions usually reveal the status of the relevant
institutions. The structure of higher education institutions, especially in developed countries, is usually
defined by the student profile they have. For this purpose, the number of associate's, bachelor's, master's and
doctoral students is important and the teaching structures of universities are defined according to the
proportional sizes of these numbers. In this study, for different statues universities (excluding the metropolitan
area of Istanbul) teaching structure and quality are evaluated on a national scale in the international
literature that expresses the meaning of the university and using the parameters examined between the
universities and the teaching structures in this area is made of a sort. In addition, the performance of the
relevant universities on the basis of the Entrepreneurial-Innovative University Index (GYUE), which was
implemented under the leadership of the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye
(TÜBİTAK) in the country, was evaluated. The results of the study showed that the quality of universities that
do not have the appropriate qualifications in terms of their teaching structure are also not enough in GYUE
and the universities considered in this study present great differences on the basis of GYUE.Gelişmiş ülkelerde; yükseköğretim kurumlarının yapısı, genelde sahip oldukları öğrenci profili ile
tanımlanır. Bu amaçla; önlisans, lisans, yüksek lisans ve doktora öğrenci sayıları önem arz etmekte ve bu
sayıların oransal büyüklüklerine göre üniversitelerin öğretim yapıları tanımlanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada,
Marmara bölgesi içinde yer alan (İstanbul metropoliten bölgesi hariç) farklı statüdeki üniversitelerin,
uluslararası literatürde anlam ifade eden parametreler kullanılarak, öğretim yapıları incelenmiş ve sınırlı
veriyle de olsa öğretim kalitelerine değinilmiş ve bu alanlarda üniversiteler arasında bir sıralama yapılmıştır.
Ayrıca ilgili üniversitelerin, ülkemizde Türkiye Bilimsel ve Teknoloji Araştırma Kurumu (TÜBİTAK)
öncülüğünde uygulanan Girişimci-Yenilikçi Üniversite Endeksi (GYÜE) esasındaki performansları
değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışma sonuçları göstermiştir ki; öğretim yapısı yönünden uygun vasıflara sahip
olmayan üniversiteler, GYUE esasında da yeterli değildir. Bu çalışmada dikkate alınan üniversiteler, GYÜE
esasında büyük farklılıklar arz etmektedir
