    Turkish Academics' Self-Efficacy Beliefs in Their Spoken English

    International Journal of Progressive Education, Volume 16 Number 6, 2020 © 2020 INASED Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace: Turkish Academics’ Self-efficacy Beliefs in their Spoken English Adem Yılmaz i Kastamonu University Pınar Ayyıldız ii Ankara Science University Hasan Şerif Baltacı iii Başkent University Abstract Academics are known as individuals designing and conducting scientific research and they are to hold problem-solving skills, use scientific methods, carry out research, and publish at a global level. That said, they may encounter problems while performing the actions mentioned above due to a lack of foreign language proficiency, which interferes with sharing their knowledge with the others in the international arena. Taking that into consideration, this study aims to scrutinize the self-efficacy beliefs of Turkish academics regarding their oral communication in English. For this purpose, the data were collected through e-mails, and a total of 352 academics working in the departments of educational sciences participated in the study. Qualitative (document analysis) and quantitative research (survey) methods were used together in the study. The scale "A Self-efficacy Instrument for Academics’ Oral Communication in a Foreign Language" developed by Özer, Çakır & Uzun (2019), was utilized in the quantitative data collection phase. The findings were subjected to descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings revealed that the self-efficacy scores of academics with respect to their oral communication in English showed no significant difference in terms of their department, academic title, academic experience, and age variable. It also turned out that there is a significant difference between self-efficacy belief scores and experience abroad, current language exam scores, and involvement in academic events abroad.

The aim of this study is to investigatethe ability to produce biofilm of Candidaspp. isolated from blood cultures. Methods: From five university hospitals, 85 patients with Candida BSIs and their first Candida blood isolates were included in the study, in one year period. Patient's data were extracted from hospital records including demographics, comorbidities,invasive procedures, surgery, antibiotic and antifungal usage, hospital length of stay, and death within the 30 days after candidemia. Determination of biofilm formation modified by Toledo-Arana et.all. Organisms were grown for 24 h at 35°C on sabouraud dexrose agar (SDA). A loop of yeast colony were inoculated sabouraud dexrose broth (SDB) supplemented with 8% glucose.

    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.

    Problems and Possible Solutions of Communication Education in the Turkish Education System: Department Name Problems

    Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies Special Issue: December 2017 Problems and Possible Solutions of Communication Education in the Turkish Education System: Department Name Problems Mustafa Özgür Seçim Adnan Menderes University, Faculty of Communication [email protected] Abstract Communication education in the Turkish higher education system has been improving every year. In 2017 more then 35 faculties named as communication are accepting students and every year almost 700 students are graduating from these faculties. In this study, it is tried to be found what are the major problems of these faculties in terms of they have so many different department names and also it is tried to suggest some solutions for these problems. Introduction There was really “Communication First” as stated in the title of the book of Alaeddin Asna, a famous communication academician whom we lost in 2015. The democratization process that accelerated with the transition to a multi-party political life in Turkey during the 1950s brought about the requirement to reach more people, and in this regard, it became essential to increase both the access to mass media and the number of experts who could use it. While the most important mass media in that period appeared to be newspapers and radio, in today’s world, the broad spectrum of means of communication from social media to cell phones, from the Internet to digital cameras form our lives. Using these tools effectively and transmitting the desired message to the target audience are very important both for the state mechanism and private sector. This is because the fact that the target audience understands the desired message in a different way or it does not reach the target audience at all causes a big confusion and leads to a ‘communication accident’.

SELAM Ankara University Observatory Science Faculty, Tandogan, TR-06100 Ankara, Turkey AND AKÎF ESENDEMÎR Middle East Technical University Physics Dept., Emek, TR-06100 Ankara, Turkey Abstract. Site-testing observations carried out between 1982 and 1986 have shown that Southwest and Southeast Turkey contain good potential observatory sites. The mountain known as Bakirhtepe near the Mediter- ranean coast was found to be a good site with a high percentage of nights with clear skies and good seeing. Here we summarize the results of the site-test observations and give general information about the site. 1. Introduction This paper gives some brief information about the new optical observatory site which some of the participants visited after the conclusion of IAU Symposium 177. The site is located on a mountain known as Bakirhtepe about 50 km (35 km as the crow flies) west of the city of Antalya at a height of 2485 m at latitude 36°51' Ν and longitude 30°20' Ε (Figure 1). It was selected after site-testing observations carried out between 1982 and 1986. Among the sites tested, Bakirhtepe was found to be the best, with a high percentage of nights with clear skies and good seeing. 507 R.F. Wing (ed.), The Carbon Star Phenomenon, 507-511. © 2000 IAU.

Within this framework, the websites of the higher education institutions that provide sports management education are analyzed by using the content analysis (categorical) method which is common in qualitative studies. Findings of the study reveal the inadequacy of visual and verbal internet materials in the websites of Turkish Universities. Additionally, while all the themes put forward in Aligning a European Higher Education Structure in Sport Science (AEHESIS), alignment program are present in English Universities, there are some inadequacies in the websites of Turkish Universities.
