    No full text
    This study examined the role of teacher professional learning in the relationship between authentic leadership,teachers' subjective well-being, and teacher academic optimism in a sample of 499 Turkish teachers. Guided bythe Broaden-and-Build Theory, we tested a moderated mediation model in which subjective well-being mediatedthe relationship between authentic leadership and teacher academic optimism, conditional on teachers' professionallearning. Results indicated that authentic leadership positively predicted subjective well-being, whichin turn positively influenced teacher academic optimism at moderate and high levels of professional learning, butnot at low levels. Teacher professional learning also moderated the effect of subjective well-being on teacheracademic optimism, enhancing the indirect influence of authentic leadership on teacher academic optimismthrough subjective well-being. These findings highlight the critical role of professional learning in transformingteachers’ positive psychological states into professional beliefs and practices. Implications for leadership, teacherdevelopment, and educational policy are discussed.</p

    Kes-Yapıştırın Ötesi: Kolajın Yaratıcı Düşünceye Katkısı Üzerine Doküman Analizi

    Kolaj, çoğunlukla farklı türdeki malzemelerin bir düzlem üzerinde bir araya getirildiği basit bir kes-yapıştır tekniği olarak algılanmaktadır. Oysa kolaj, deneyimleyenin bu malzemeleri çeşitli spekülasyonlarla sorgulamasına ve dönüştürmesine olanak tanıyan; böylece yeni bir bütün ortaya koyan hem sanatsal hem de düşünsel bir ifade tekniğidir. Tarihsel kökeni sanattaki kullanımlarına dayanan kolaj, günümüzde yalnızca bir sanat pratiği olmanın ötesinde; anlatı kurma, bellek, arşiv oluşturma ve sosyal bilimlerde veri toplama amacıyla nitel bir araştırma yöntemi olarak da kullanılmaktadır. Kolajlar amaçlarına göre çeşitlilik gösterse de genel bir bakış açısıyla, üretim sürecinde yaratıcı düşünceyi kimi durumlarda bir gereklilik haline getirdiği ve ön plana çıkardığı; bu bağlamda yaratıcı düşünceyi desteklediği söylenebilir. Özellikle kolajda kullanılan metin, görsel, doku ve obje gibi malzemeler, kendi bağlamlarından koparılarak yeni bir bütün içinde yeniden anlam kazanır ve bu süreç, deneyimleyenin yaratıcı düşüncesinin bir yansımasına dönüşür. Bu çalışmada, bir görsel anlatım tekniği olarak kullanılan kolaja ilişkin pratiklerin nitel bir araştırma yöntemi olan doküman analizine başvurularak incelenmesi esas alınmıştır. Bu kapsamda, Hacettepe Üniversitesi Güzel Sanatlar Fakültesi İç Mimarlık ve Çevre Tasarımı Bölümü’nde “Görsel Anlatım Teknikleri II” dersini almış öğrencilerin gündelik hayat pratiklerini konu alan kolaj çalışmaları yaratıcı düşünce kapsamında değerlendirilmiş; malzemeleri (görsel, metin, doku ve obje vb.) ele alış biçimleri ve üretilen nihai çıktılar üzerinden okunmuştur. İncelenen kolajlar literatürle karşılaştırmalı olarak tartışılmış; yapılan inceleme sonucunda kolajın deneyimleyen kişiye malzemeleri farklı biçimlerde algılama ve aktarma olanağı sağladığı görülmüştür. Her ne kadar deneyimleyenlerin beslendikleri kavram, görsel ve metin gibi girdiler aynı olsa bile, bunların ele alınış biçimleri ve yüklenen anlamların farklılaştığı tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, kolaj hangi amaçla yapılırsa yapılsın, hayatın olağan akışında yerleşmiş görsel, metin, doku ve obje gibi birçok malzemeyi farklı bir perspektiften ele alma imkanı sunarak yaratıcı düşünceyi geliştiren bir araç olarak değerlendirilebilir.Collage is often perceived as a simple cut-and-paste technique that brings together different types of materials on a single plane. However, collage is both an artistic and intellectual expression technique that allows the artist to question and transform these materials through various speculations, thereby creating a new whole. With historical roots in its use in art, collage today goes beyond being merely an artistic practice; it is also used as a qualitative research method for narrative construction, memory, archiving, and data collection in the social sciences. Although collages vary according to their purpose, from a general perspective, it can be said that the production process makes creative thinking a necessity in some cases and brings it to the fore, thereby supporting creative thinking. In particular, materials such as text, visuals, textures, and objects used in collage are taken out of their original contexts and given new meaning within a new whole, reflecting the creator’s creative thinking. In this study, practices related to collage, which is used as a visual narrative technique, are examined through document analysis, a qualitative research method. Within this scope, the collage works of students who took the “Visual Narrative Techniques II” course at Hacettepe University Faculty of Fine Arts Department of Interior Architecture and Environmental Design, which focused on their daily life practices, were evaluated in terms of creative thinking; their approaches to materials (visuals, text, texture, and objects, etc.) and the final outputs produced were analyzed. The collages examined were discussed in comparison with the literature; as a result of the examination, it was observed that collage provides the person experiencing it with the opportunity to perceive and convey materials in different ways. Although the concepts, visuals, and texts to which the experiencers were exposed were the same, it was determined that how they were approached and the meanings they carried differed. In conclusion, regardless of its purpose, collage can be regarded as a tool that fosters creative thinking by offering the opportunity to approach various materials, such as visuals, text, texture, and objects, which are embedded in the ordinary flow of life, from a different perspective.</p

    Contribution to quality education and critical thinking in the context of teacher education: A teaching model through socioscientific scenarios

    No full text
    Critical thinking is a fundamental skill that enables individuals to approach knowledge inquisitively and to develop their problem-solving abilities. For pre-service teachers in particular, acquiring this skill strengthens pedagogical processes and equips them to employ instructional methods that promote students' critical thinking. This study aims to enhance pre-service teachers' critical thinking skills and increase their awareness of the concept of quality education by employing socioscientific scenarios addressing Sustainable Development Goal 4-Quality Education. The research was conducted with 57 pre-service teachers using an embedded mixed-method design. During a 14-week instructional process, the participants engaged in dialogue-based discussions on socioscientific scenarios framed within the Sustainable Development Goals. Both quantitative and qualitative data collection instruments were administered at the beginning and end of the intervention. The findings revealed that teaching practices based on socioscientific scenarios focusing on quality education significantly improved pre-service teachers' critical thinking skills (pre-test M = 37.58, post-test M = 40.02; t =-3.35, p=.001, Cohen's d = 0.44) and increased their awareness of the concept of quality education. The results emphasize the need for the systematic integration of critical thinking skills into teacher education programs. Accordingly, promoting teaching approaches and instructional models that foster critical thinking can contribute to the development of a sustainable and inclusive education system
