  • MAPPING the FAULTLINES: Structural Crisis of the World-System and Turkey” 10Th of May 2012
    ______________________________________________________________________________ Istanbul Şehir University, Center for Modern Turkish Studies & Keele University, School of Politics, International Relations and Philosophy presents a Workshop on “MAPPING THE FAULTLINES: Structural Crisis of the World-System and Turkey” 10th of May 2012 Workshop will be conducted in English Time: May 10, 2011 - Thursday // 14.00-18:00 Venue: Istanbul Şehir University Altunizade Campus 5th Floor Meeting Hall The current global crisis is an expression of the structural changes and deep-rooted contradictions, which have occurred within the global system in the last 30 years. The present crisis has reminded us that we live in a dynamic world where empires and systems come and go according to history’s dictates. It seems that the Bretton Woods system is in eclipse, and the world is moving toward a multi-polar global structure. In the long history of global political economy, crises come and go, as do the focal points around which they form. To understand the dynamics of the current process of change we must also understand the history that gives it volume and reach. The current crisis is destined to bring about fundamental changes in the world. The world will be different when the carnage stops. The crisis will bring irreversible geopolitical consequences. We are not saying that it is all over for the USA. It is still one of the strongest countries in the world. But the reality is that the US economy and the rest of the US-centred economies of the West are fast losing ground. China, India and other significant emerging economies, including Turkey, have been strengthening considerably.

  • Evaluation of Effects of Traffic Variables on the Noise Levels Using Soundplan V6.5†
    Digest 2017 Evaluation of Effects of Traffic Variables on the Noise Levels Using SoundPlan V6.5† Aybike ÖNGEL1 Fatih SEZGİN2 ABSTRACT In recent decades, noise pollution has been a worldwide concern. The health effects of noise pollution include noise-induced hearing loss, sleep disturbance, performance loss, annoyance, cardiovascular problems, and cognitive impairment in children. In this study, noise maps were prepared using SoundPlan 6.5 for D-100 Highway around Okmeydani İstanbul. The effects of traffic volume, composition, and speed and pavement surface type on the number of people exposed to noise levels above threshold for annoyance, sleep disturbance, and cardiovascular diseases were investigated. Noise reduction strategies in terms of speed limit, public transportation, heavy vehicle traffic, and pavement type were proposed. Keywords: Highway noise, SoundPlan, noise map, noise and health. 1 İstanbul Ticaret University, İstanbul, Turkey - [email protected] 2 The İstanbul Metropolitan Municipality, İstanbul, Turkey - [email protected] † Published in Teknik Dergi Vol. 28, No. 1 January 2017, pp: 7669-7684 2147 Digest 2017 Determination of Spatial Distribution of Precipitation on Poorly Gauged Coastal Regions: Eastern Black Sea † Region Ebru ERİŞ1 Necati AĞIRALİOĞLU2 ABSTRACT Determination of spatial distribution of precipitation has an importance in terms of hydrological applications and water resources assessment. Particularly, the effects of orography and coastline on precipitation distribution should be taken into account in mountainous and/or coastal regions. This necessity is complicated by the limited number of rain gauges which have also a nonhomogenous distribution. In this study, it is aimed to determine the spatial distribution of precipitation for the coastal part of the Eastern Black Sea Region.

This study intended to investigate the relationship between self- efficacy and learner autonomy, self-efficacy and academic success, learner autonomy and academic success, and these two concepts and academic success. Also, it was aimed to explore the effect of self-efficacy on academic success, the effect of learner autonomy on academic success and the effect of self-efficacy and learner autonomy on academic success. The study was applied to 250 preparatory level students at Gaziantep, Zirve, İnönü, Selçuk and Karatay Universities in 2010-2011 academic year. The data were collected through Self- Efficacy Questionnaire (SEQ) and Autonomous Learner Questionnaire (ALQ) and analyzed by SPSS 19.0. The analysis of the data revealed that there was a positive relationship between self-efficacy and learner autonomy (r= .667 p>.01), self-efficacy and academic success (r=.597 p>.01), and learner autonomy and academic success (r=.506 p>.01). Index Terms—individual learning, learner autonomy, self-efficacy, academic Success I.

    SHS Web of Conferences 26, 01023 (2016) DOI: 10.1051/shsconf/20162601023 ER PA201 5 In the context of Interior Architecture departments in Turkey; Design studio (project) education Serpil Özker1, and Elif Süyük Makaklı2a 1Işık University, Faculty of Fine Arts, Department of Interior Architecture, Istanbul, 34398, Turkey 2Işık University, Faculty of Architecture and Design, Department of Architecture, Istanbul, 34980, Turkey Abstract. The courses of design studio are the most weighted elements in education as an essential part of interior architecture education. There are areas where thinking and design skills of the students are improved yet it is different from other courses. Increased number of students for each academic member in the project courses conducted through a mentor system has resulted in failure to sustain project-oriented education actively and reduced the productivity quality of education. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to address the educational methods applied in various forms in the design studio courses of Interior Architecture departments in Turkey. Keywords: Interior architecture; interior architecture education; design studio; course plan. 1 Introduction Interior Architecture is one of the modern professions that continuously renew itself with the impact of socio-cultural and economic changes. Therefore, it is inevitable that the Interior Architecture education is being shaped under different approaches. The interior architecture education is particularly guided by design studio courses, and the weight of design studios in education is substantial. According to James Reswick, design, a creative act, is a concept involving creation of a new and practical thing that has never existed before, [8]. Design is a creative process and the most fundamental elements of design group professions; and the education is the development of individuals' behaviors through training and directions.
