International Logistics and Supply Chain Congress December 01-02, 2016, Izmir, TURKIYE WHICH LOGISTICS PERFORMANCE INDICATOR INFLUENCE EXPORT MOST? A SCENARIO ANALYSIS BASED APPROACH Özgür Kabak1, Şule Önsel Ekici2, Füsun Ülengin3 Abstract ⎯ This study aims to investigate the relationship between logistics performance and exports and attempts to answer the question of which logistics indicators especially influence the country’s export level. For this purpose, a scenario analysis-based approach is proposed to analyze the relationships between exports and the six indicators of the logistics performance index reported by World Bank every two years: customs, infrastructure, international shipments, logistics quality and competence, tracking and tracing, and timeliness. A novel mathematical model is proposed in order to find an eligible number of scenarios, and the results of this proposed model are used to determine the most important logistics performance indicators that influence the export level of the country. Finally, Turkey is selected as a case study, and possible scenarios are investigated for Turkey to suggest policy proposals in order to improve its export. Keywords ⎯ Export, Logistics Performance, Scenario Analysis INTRODUCTION As the backbone of international trade, logistics encompasses freight transportation, warehousing, border clearance, payment systems and many other functions that are mostly performed by private service providers for private traders and owners of goods. However, logistics is also important for the public policies of national governments and regional and international organizations [1]. If a country can obtain a competitive advantage in terms of logistics performance, then there will be an increase in its international trade, helping to open new markets and encouraging business. Country-based logistics performance evaluation will also help understand the relative position of the country and provide a guide on deciding which areas to focus on, such as infrastructure, services, procedures and regulations, to improve the logistics performance level. Companies with access to high-quality cost-efficient logistical capabilities can often outsource certain logistics tasks and devote fewer internal resources to these tasks. The development of the logistics sector is expected to have a positive impact on increasing production, consumption and trade and thus stimulating the economic growth. Better infrastructure will also contribute to attracting foreign direct investment [2]-[5]. A number of studies have been conducted to identify the impact of logistics on increasing international trade. Gupta el al. [6] use a series of semi-structured interviews with 35 logistics and related firms operating in Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Their analysis reveal that the custom authorities of some countries require a large number of documents which increases the inefficiency in the documentation process at the customs and, thus, result with custom-related barrier to international trade.

  • Evaluating an English Preparatory Program Using CIPP Model and Exploring the Motivational Beliefs for Learning
    Article Journal of Education and Educational Development 8(1), 53-76, 2021 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.22555/joeed.v8i1.109 Evaluating an English Preparatory Program using CIPP Model and Exploring the Motivational Beliefs for Learning Görkem Erdoğan Beykoz University, Turkey Enisa Mede Bahçeşehir University, Turkey Abstract The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the English Preparatory School Language Program in a Turkish state university. Specifically, the perceptions of students and instructors for Stuffleabeam’s Context Input Process Product (CIPP) model were investigated and the motivational beliefs of students for learning were examined. To meet these objectives, Stufflebeam’s (1971) CIPP evaluation model was used to find out the perceptions of the two groups of participants about the current program as well as the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) developed by Pintrich et al., (1993) was administered to the students to discover their motivational beliefs for learning. The quantitative data were obtained through questionnaires administered to 54 students and 33 instructors and the qualitative data were gathered via semi-structured interviews carried out with 10 students and 5 instructors. The findings of the study revealed that although the participants were content with materials, assessment, and the teaching methods, there was a need to develop speaking and listening skills. Additionally, among the motivational beliefs of the students, control beliefs, task value, and intrinsic goal orientation were perceived to be crucial for the students. Finally, the perceptions of the students and instructors reported some strengths and weaknesses that need to be addressed in the program. Keywords: CIPP model, English language teaching and learning, motivated strategies for learning questionnaire, motivational beliefs, perceptions, program evaluation.

  • About Issa Turkey
    ABOUT ISSA TURKEY Education In Turkey 1 2 www.issa.org.tr ABOUT ISSA TURKEY PREFACE The foremost indicator of the internationalization of the universities around the world includes the number of the foreign students they teach, and the countries from which these come. Furthermore, every youth would like to study in a university giving the best education at international standards. Seeking after knowledge at the best and farthest institution has been a common rule throughout history. Throughout history, particularly in the Islam culture, many scholars had gone to various realms cradling science and wisdom, and been taught far away from their countries. Having risen in the last century, the number of students worldwide has reached above 5 million worldwide. Besides, this has become a major service sector for all countries in socio-cultural and economical terms, having reached to an annual economical volume of $ 100 billion. Anatolia has been a center of education and science thanks to the scientist it has brought up, its history, its nature, and its geopolitical location at the intersection of three continents. Today, Turkey, too, is an educational center in its territory with its nearly 200 universities, and more than 100 hundred thousand students coming from 95 counties. Students prefer Turkey due to the particular reasons mentioned below. Turkey is a modern Muslim country being governed by Republican regime. Turkey is a country with a thriving economy, alongside its historical, climatic, and natural beauties. Turkish universities accommodate all departments in Turkey with numerous alternatives. While Turkish universities in general are at European standards, not only the private universities are cheaper than those in Europe, it is also way cheaper to study in the state universities, and even for free in some of them.
