  • The Turkish Landscape
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by E-LIS Open Access and Institutional Repositories: The Turkish Landscape Yaşar Tonta Department of Information Management, Hacettepe University 06800 Beytepe, Ankara, Turkey e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The development of the “Open Access” (OA) movement since early 1990s has been radically changing the scientific communication landscape. Within the last decade more universities and research institutions are recommending their scholars to make their works freely accessible through their web sites and/or institutional repositories (IRs). The research impact of OA articles as measured by the number of citations is much higher than that of printed ones. Several universities have developed policies to mandate OA and set up IRs to guarantee public access to the output of publicly funded research projects. Refereed journal articles, conference papers, theses and dissertations, and courseware (i.e., lecture notes, audio and video records of lectures) can be given as examples of such research output. This paper defines the concepts of OA and IR and briefly reviews the current situation of IRs in Europe. It then chronicles the development of IRs in Turkey. The paper concludes with some recommendations. Introduction1 There are some 24,000 scientific journals publishing 2.5 million articles each year. Scientific journals are expensive. The economic model of publishing is based on subscription and licensing. Price hikes in the publishing sector within the last 30 years are well beyond the inflation rates. This has been primarily due to lack of competition. Some publishers can easily become monopolies, as no two journals can publish the same article in view of copyright restrictions.

  • Critical Components of Online Learning Readiness and Their Relationships with Learner Achievement
    Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education-TOJDE April 2016 ISSN 1302-6488 Volume: 17 Number: 2 Article 8 CRITICAL COMPONENTS OF ONLINE LEARNING READINESS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIPS WITH LEARNER ACHIEVEMENT Dr. Harun CIGDEM Department of Computer Technologies Land Forces Non-Commissioned Officer Vocational College, Balikesir, TURKEY Dr. Mustafa OZTURK School of Foreign Languages Hacettepe University, Ankara, TURKEY ABSTRACT This study aimed to examine the relationship between certain factors of online learning readiness and learners’ end-of-course achievements. The study was conducted at a two- year post-secondary Turkish military school within the scope of the course titled Computer Literacy, which was designed and implemented in a blended way. The data were collected from 155 post-secondary military students through an online questionnaire. Three sub-scales of Hung et al.’s Online Learning Readiness Scale were used to collect the data during the first two weeks of the course. Descriptive and inferential statistics, such as Pearson correlation coefficients and linear regression analyses were performed to analyze the data. The descriptive results of the study indicated that students’ motivation for online learning was higher than both their computer/Internet self-efficacy and their orientations to self-directed learning. The inferential results revealed that the students’ end-of-course grades had significantly positive relationships with their computer/Internet self-efficacy and self-directed learning orientations. Finally, the students’ self-direction towards online learning appeared to be the strongest predictor of their achievements within the course; whereas computer/Internet self-efficacy and motivation for learning did not predict the learner achievement significantly. Keywords: Online learning readiness, learner achievement, blended learning, computer literacy INTRODUCTION In this day and age, technology affects almost every aspect of our lives and continually change the way we learn, teach, and work on the information.
