Otizm Spektrum Bozukluğuna Sahip Çocuğun Yaşamına Biyoekolojik Bakış
No full textIntroduction: The aim of this study was to examine the lives of children with autism spectrum disorder from the perspective of the bioecological theory.Method: The research was designed as a descriptive phenomenological study focusing on the participants' descriptions and experiences of living with autism spectrum disorder. The starting point of descriptive phenomenology involves concrete descriptions of the events experienced by the participants from the perspective of their everyday life. Seventeen caregivers of children with autism spectrum disorder participated in the study. Semi-structured interview technique was used to collect the data.Findings: As a result of data analysis, the following sub-themes emerged: caregiver and child, other family members and child, immediate environment and child, teacher and child, the school in the microsystem; social field ties in the mesosystem; parent and teacher in the exosystem; the education system, support, community, laws, and communication tools in the macrosystem; and time and participation in the chronosystem.Discussion: When a child is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, the interactions of family members within themselves and with other people in society differ. Many factors such as the level of acceptance of the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder by other individuals including parents and siblings, personality traits, and their opinions about autism spectrum disorder may have been determinant in interpersonal communication. The views on the teachers' approach can be explained by the education and personality traits of the teachers. In addition, variables such as the resources of the school or the level of acceptance of disability by the school staff may also have been effective in the results. Conclusion and Recommendations: Mothers were the primary caregivers of children, that the socioeconomic characteristics of parents and the personality traits of teachers affected children's development and education, and that the society was prejudiced and distant towards children due to lack of knowledge about children and the subject. It was expected that the quality and quantity of social awareness-raising activities would be improved. Parents who did not have sufficient financial income stated that they could not provide their children with the care and education they needed. It is believed that non-governmental organizations can help children with autism spectrum disorder access training and support in different disciplines such as sensory integration, sports activities, psychology, and nutrition
Private Supplementary Tutoring in Turkey: Recent Evidence on Its Various Aspects
No full textThis paper first describes the educational system in Turkey an the two national examinations for advancing upper levels of schooling which give raise to the demand for private tutoring called “dersane” in Turkish. Second, the evolution of the Private tutoring Centers (PTC) are described and compared with the high schools in the country. Third, geographical distribution of the PTC, general high schools and the proportion of high school age population are compared over the provinces to give an idea about special equity issues. Other topics addressed include gender and PTC students, disruption of mainstream education, determinants of the demand for services of the PTCs, cost of PTCs and evidence on the effectiveness of PTCs.private tutoring, education, demand for education
Comparison of the thermal stresses developed in diamond and advanced ceramic coating systems under thermal loading
No full textSurface preparation techniques such as plasma spraying, physical vapour deposition and chemical vapour deposition have been used to make convenient material combinations for the use in high-technology requirements. High-temperature coating are used for two main functions. Either to protect a base metal against corrosion or erosion, or to minimise wear. A third function is to reduce the temperature of the base metal in the case of thermal barrier coatings. In this investigation, thermal and structural finite element analysis has been employed to analyse the level of stresses developed in coatings subjected to thermal loading. Diamond, Si3N4, Al2O3 and TiC coating systems were modelled. Coatings with NiAl interlayer material were also modelled. Nominal and shear stresses at the critical interface regions (film/interlayer/substrate)were obtained and compared. The results showed that the level of the thermal stresses is influenced by coating material, coating thickness, interlayer material thickness and the mismatch of the thermal and mechanical properties between coating and substrate materials. It is also concluded that the finite element technique can be used to optimise the design and processing of diamond and ceramic coatings. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved
Influence of SiO2 and MnO2 additives on the dry friction and wear performance of Al2O3 ceramic
No full textAlumina is widely selected in the design of components for high engineering applications mainly because of its high wear resistance, high compressive strength, low specific density and high temperature capability. Processing and manufacturing of pure alumina products is a difficult and expensive task. Therefore, additional compounds are added to alumina to reach more complex component design, to minimise the product processing and manufacturing costs. In this investigation we studied and explored the influence of additional compounds, speed and load values on the friction and wear behaviour of alumina ceramic. Wear tests for alumina and alumina samples contained w3% SiO2 and w1.5%MnO2, addition compounds was carried out with a pin-on-disc machine. Tribological tests were under 2.5, 5 and 10 N loads and at speeds of 0.5 and 1 m/s. The specific wear rates were deduced from mass loss. The wear rate for alumina without additional compounds was in the order of 10(-8) to 10(-7) mm(2)/N. while the wear rate values for alumina with additional compounds were in the order of 10(-6). Moreover, the wear rate showed more sensitivity to the applied load, particularly at low sliding speeds. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved
Teachers' and students' views about the applicability of the project-based learning approach in science courses in Turkey
No full textThe aim with this study was to examine how, from the teachers' and students' perspectives, the project-based learning approach was applied in science and technology lessons. The research was conducted through a case study with qualitative research methods. The data of the study were obtained from semi-structured interviews with 38 students and 11 science and technology teachers. This data were analysed by descriptive analysis which is a qualitative data analysis method. The results of this study show that the teachers described the project-based learning approach as an inapplicable approach in schools. Teachers advised a reduction of curriculum content and a reduction in class sizes. We understood that the other phases of the project processes that started with the selection of project topics at school were done with the help of the students' families at home. It also became clear that during the evaluation process, the teachers took the students' own efforts into consideration. We determined that most of the students who participated in the projects in the science and technology course were free to choose their project subjects. It also became clear that students preferred to do projects in the science and technology course. At the end of the research report, suggestions based on the results of the research are made
SolarPierce: A Solar Path Based Generative System
No full textIn hot and arid climates, limiting solar heat gain while also providing daylight into a structure is a major concern in building design. Building skin that gradually changes in porosity can help limit solar heat gain. Since solar heat gain is primarily a problem during summer, the path the sun follows during summer must be taken into account in determining opening sizes. In this paper, the researcher reports on a study where a generative system called SolarPierce was developed using AutoLISP, the scripting language of AutoCAD, to generate solid geometry for a building skin based on the sun\u92s path in a given geographical area. The system automatically punches different size openings in a given shell structure where openings facing the sun are the smallest and those fully facing away from the sun are the largest. Opening sizes gradually change from a given minimum to a given maximum depending on how much they face the sun
