Media are the instruments which convey messages like knowledge and opinion and feeling and are used since the first ages. Media conveyed events in little settlements and then changed into instruments which can cause happenings and which can steer events. People live in a high rhythm life and get tired much and front media as the easiest knowledge source. People get different problems because of conditions of modern age and also look for solutions for their problems on media. Media advise people their own solutions for problems of people and convey a life style due to their benefits. People use media about all matters and originate from media from whom they vote on elections to what they eat, and where they travel at weekend to how they attidudinize about global developments. Media watch all lives of people and try to respond all necessities of people, media gain via this way and create their own style. Modern societies mostly live with messages from media and feel themselves addicted to media. Media also use impact on societies and try to create societies which are comletely addicted themselves. People use media to learn and the administrtors who always sue media administrate societies and media steer administrators and people find patterns via messages of media and choose. Media determine numerous components of society and form them. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27336 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27336 Hüseyin MUŞMAL Before Konya Plain Irrigation Project was implemented, water of Lake Beyşehir was poured into Lake Suğla by passing ca 60 miles through Beyşehir Watercourse. After water emerging from Lake Suğla united with Çarşamba Watercourse, that water spread to Konya Plain and puddles most of which were permanent and small. These puddles would also disrupt agricultural activities, because agricultural lands around were flooded by these puddles. Because lands turned into swamp in the periods when the floods lasted long, air of the environment was deteriorated and the population was faced with the danger of infectious diseases. In 19th Century, the population, which was suffering from these floods that were thought to become more dangerous, drew the attention of local managers and the issue of finding a solution was transferred to the central government from time to time. On the other hand, serious droughts were being experienced in a large part of the Konya Plain in some months of the year, for the land could not be irrigated crop yields decreased too much, even in some years there were great famine events. At the beginning of 19th century, all these cases led the administrators in Konya to the idea to utilize from the water of Beyşehir Lake overflowing Konya Plain. Eventually, Konya Plain Irrigation Project (KOP) was moved to the agenda for the first time seriously in the protocols written up as a result of the petitions of the inhabitants of villages surrounding Bozkır and Seydişehir and of the elders of Konya and sent by Province Konya to Istanbul. The project in question was voiced again in protocols and reports prepared in the years 1853, 1866 and 1880. As a result, the Tender for Irrigation Project was made during the Grand Viziership Period of Ferid Pasha, Avlonyalı, who was the governor of Konya between the years 1898-1902. A contract was signed with Anatolia-Ottoman Railway Company that won the tender in November 10, 1907 in Istanbul and the contract was approved by Sultan Abdulhamid II in April 30, 1908. By means of the project completed between the years 1908-1914, the water of Lake Beyşehir was delivered to Konya Plain through an irrigation channel and that was given to irrigation through three main channels. In this study, the emergence of the idea of Konya Plain Irrigation Project and the first studies carried out in this field are going to be mentioned in the light of some documents taking place in Ottoman Archives of Prime Ministry. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27399 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27399 Kubilay ÖZYER, Sema POLATCI Role stressors are situations that cause stress experienced people working within an organization. Roles stressors generally are accepted in the literature by two factors; role ambiguity and role conflict. Role ambiguity is caused by a lack of knowledge regarding work and role conflict arises from the fact that the person faces expectations that are incompatible with each other. On the other hand burnout are situations where working with people face to face emerging occupations and people often live in a state of exhaustion. If a person faces with role conflict or role ambiguity he or she can feel more burnout is the main problem of this study. To analyze this problem data was collected from 218 nurses via questionnaire. The data has analyzed and it has found that role ambiguity and also role conflict effect burnout syndrome. Furthermore, it has found role ambiguity and role conflict effect some sub dimensions of burnout. But these effect become different on sub dimensions of burnout. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27418 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27418 Numan ELİBOL The increasing weight of Britain in the Black Sea trade towards the mid 19th century is reflected in Ottoman registers. According to these registers showing the entry and the exit of British vessels to and from the straits, the relatively stable British Black Sea trade conducted through the 1840’s tended to increase in the second half of the decade; the Black Sea posed as a supply region for British ships; the articles of export from the Black Sea consisted of the agricultural products, the items of husbandry and the raw materials; the Danubian ports emerged as alternative channels of import for British vessels in spite of the ongoing ascendancy of Russian ports on the Northern Black Sea; as far as the imports into the Black Sea is concernced, a direct trade without any intermediaries was established between Britain and the Black Sea; this aspect of the course of trade was visible in the composition of the trade articles; and the Greek element, which was supposed to have ruled over the British trade in the Black Sea, could not be detected in the findings of the research. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27393 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27393 Salim KÜÇÜK Adopting a decimal number and decimal base number system, Turks used “next decimal base” number system in Kokturk and Uyghur periods, which does not exist in any other language. In this system, the smaller number is moved to the front when there is a summation relationship between numbers, and the next decimal number is used for the numbers between 10 and 90, instead of the expected one. This tradition is still followed by the Yugurs. Although majority of the Turkish dialects use decimal base system, there are differences amongst them. Karacay-Balkar Turkish uses vigesimal number system after 30 as well as decimal system, and Halac Turkish uses a mixed base system of trigesimal and tetragesimal. There are similarities and differences between the numeral groups of compound numbers, which formed with interim numbers and which form an adjective phrase with nouns, used by Kokturks, Uyghurs and Karahan Turks and the numeral groups in Karacay-Balkar Turkish that is in Kypchak Language group that is one of the Modern Turkish dialects. The numeral groups in Karacay-Balkar Turkish have a mixed structure with their use similar to that of standard Turkish as well as vigesimal base number system. For numbers above 20, the word “bla” is used which can be regarded as an extension of the Old Turkish. Moreover, it is observed in Karacay-Balkar Turkish that summation and multiplication of numbers are used concurrently in the formation of numbers. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27380 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27380 Yusuf ÇETİN, Özgür YENİ Wooden pottery is an art of making artefacts from wood. It is possible to see this type of art in many parts of Anatolia where the flora is covered with forest, especially in Black-Sea Region it is possible to run into different types of wooden pottery. Heading for the last roundup in Daday, Kastamonu in the west of Black-Sea Region, the art of wooden pottery is being rendered by some old craftsmen with its most unique form. The bodies bearing the fatigue of the years do not have the power to run this job, any longer. Some of the last craftsmen do not run this job because of the reasons such as the decrease of need and interest toward this art of work. For that reason, the art of wooden pottery is becoming much closer to be forgotten day by day. Despite of its low production, the art of wooden pottery that is being made to order by some craftsmen in Daday in unique and suitable dimensions for use is no longer an occupation that produces economic value because of the changes in economic and social conditions. The branch of this type of art work shows its cultural value hereafter. The continuation of this art can be provided by the craftsmen that would be educated in some courses that can be run within the scope of vocational workshops, vocational schools of the universities and public education centres. These hand-made art works that would be produced in small dimensions by traditional methods can be transformed into economic value as souvenirs in terms of cultural tourism. This situation will enable an access for this heirloom to the next generations besides creating a new employment area for the inhabitants. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27395 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27395 Yusuf GENÇ, Hasan Hüseyin TAYLAN , İsmail BARIŞ In this study, the role of the perception of social exclusion on the Romani children’s underachievement at school is discussed. Romani culture is a typical one. Culture, shortly the life style, is the most distinctive component of social differences. Societies aim to become a monoculture by integrating the subcultures through education. However, subculture groups try to keep their values alive. Romani people also try hard in all parts of life to keep their subculture alive. Romani people have a strong solidarity among themselves but they are isolated from other components of society. The failure in avoiding the problems which lead them to such a situation results in 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27320 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27320 Emre ÖZŞAHİN The number of scientific studies on geomorphometry, which is a subject between theoretical geomorphology and practical geomorphology, has increased in recent years. Therefore, sounder results can be obtained about the formation and development process of topography. This study aims to explain the geomorphometric features of the Hoşköy River Basin, which extends on the Ganos Fault that is the westernmost branch of NAF (North Anatolian Fault), and the role of the young tectonic unit on the morphological development of the region. To this end, an attempt has been made to reveal the geomorphometric features of the basin area through various geomorphometric indices. The study has intended to answer the following research questions: “What are the geomorphometric features of the Hoşköy River Basin? Is there any relationship between these features and tectonic factors? If any, how has this relationship affected the development of the basin?”. The research hypothesis is as follows: Tectonic factors play an important role in the development of drainage basins and the formation and development of drainage. The study is significant because it shows that tectonic influences can be explained through certain geomorphometric methods via GIS (Geographic Information Systems) techniques. 1:25.000 scale topographic map sheets, DEM (Digital Elevation Model) formed based on these map sheets, and geological maps of various scales have been used as basic materials. The methodology of the present study includes various geomorphic indices. The research data have been analyzed and mapped via ArcInfo/ArcMap 10.2 through GIS techniques. According to the research results, tectonic factors have shaped the basin area and the drainage (its formation and development). The tectonic influence has been more intense in the north of the Ganos Fault in comparison to its south in the basin area. That has caused the topography to warp to the south and rise on the right side of the main tributary and to head northward on the left side of the main tributary, all occurring from downstream to upstream. The present study has indicated that tectonic influences on the topography can be explained through certain geomorphometric methods via GIS techniques. Thanks to this feature, GIS can be used as an auxiliary tool to make effective decisions in topography-based analyzes and planning. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27441 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27441 Adem BALTACI Organizations in the field of social services adopt modern management approaches and practices as so many of the organizations in today’s world. In this context, teamwork is one of the practices that help social service organizations to display high performance. Teamwork considered as a necessary and important component of effective delivery of the social services and many of the social service practices. Such that, organizations in the field of social services increase their effectiveness and productivity by decreasing control over employees, bringing out their potentials, promoting innovation, and improving organizational commitment and motivation with the help of teamwork. The fact that organizations from different sectors, whether it is a private company, a public institute or a non-profit organization, can offer social services is a significant issue in this field. Because of that fact the structural and managerial characteristics of the sectors that organizations belong to differentiate dynamics of teamwork. From this point of view, studying teamwork in social services in the context of sectorial differences has a critical importance to comprehend teamwork in this kind of organizations. Hereby in this study, teamwork is theoretically examined specific to social service organizations and in the context of sectors (private, public and non-profit sectors). This paper reveals that teamwork whose area of usage grows day by day has a key role in effectiveness and productiveness of social service organizations as well as other organization types. It is presumed that the examination of usage of teamwork in different contexts would have significant contributions to improvement of management approach in social services. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27438 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27438 Ahmet DOĞAN In different platforms, though tale, story and mesnevi formed of a manifestation of the needing to tell of humankind apperantly presents 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27372 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27372 Ali Aycan KOLUKISA Bilingual dictionaries in use today, while helping to increase the vocabulary of in 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27401 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27401 Aslı SAĞIROĞLU Subject of this research is immovable cultural value of Bor, a town of Nigde Bor Armenian Church and Cigizlar House above it, placed in Orta (Vusta) disctict which is known as Armenian area in the center of Bor, town of Nigde. A road is crossing on the North side of it and surrounded with old houses which are coming from19. and 20. Century. East side of this church, had been planned like a rectangular according to this road. In this investigation, this building has not only one contruction period, seperately ground, first and second flor would be exemined, defined, advertised to World Church in the ground flor generate the first periode of construction; house in the first and second flor though as 2nd periode of construction. There is noother scientific investigation about this structure. However, at least the name of the Church on the ground floor of this structure had been declarated by researcher who were working around this area. There is no construction orrenovation documents reach to us today. But ‘1930’ date is written on out door of the house. The house above the church seems neoclassical stile with allit’s properties; with a bare and monumental architecture, attract allattention in Bor. Our purpose with this scientific investigation is present this specific immovable cutural value which is very successful to combine two different architecture culture at the same time. We believe that Nigde Bor Armenian Church and Cigizlar House above should be estorated fully as soon as possible and keep alive again as an urban museum or art center. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27349 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27349 Ayla ARSEVEN, İbrahim DAĞDELER The aim of this study is to determine school administrators’ and teachers’ views as regard to school administrators’ duties and responsibilities in applying primary school curriculum. This is a qualitative study in descriptive research model. Of qualitative research methods and interview techniques were used in this study. The study group consists of 15 primary school administrators and 20 class teachers working at schools in central districts in Sivas. In line with the information obtained from document analysis, ‘Administrator Interview Form’ and ‘Teacher Interview Form’ were developed by the researcher. The data were obtained by sound recording during the interview. Content analysis was used during the data analysis process. Some of the conclusions obtained from the study are the following: a great many school administrators think they have enough knowledge about the curriculums; school administrators regard their duties and responsibilities on applying curriculums as providing equipment, approving the prepared plans and supervising the application of curriculum. In addition, school administrators and teachers think school administrators do not make enough contribution to planning curriculums; teachers do not have problem on equipment necessary for the application of curriculum; however, they claim the physical conditions of schools are inadequate; most of the school administrators do not make any work as to evaluating curriculum; school administrators and teachers consider that school administrators carry out the supervision of curriculum by observing the classes most; furthermore, they also carry out these supervisions by checking teachers’ class book and interviewing with the teachers. According to research results, it has been suggested that school administrators should participate in the process of curriculum planning more actively, the physical conditions of schools should be improved, school administrators should contribute to the assessment process of curriculum and they should inform the results to top level. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27428 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27428 Bilgen BAŞAL Organ donation rates in Turkey when compared with other European countries are very insufficient. To better document public perception on organ donation, a personal interview survey of a locally representative sample of 420 respondents has been conducted in spring 2013. This paper tries to explore the reasons of low organ donation rates while analyzing the current insufficient organ donation condition of our country and tries to find remedy solutions. In this survey, while only 4% of the respondents are donated their organs, 60% of them have a positive opinion to organ donation and 74% of them believe that organ donation can save people’s lives. This survey reveals that illiteracy and fear leads to insufficient organ donation rates and the most effective way to reach the potential donors is media with a strong need for awareness campaigns. There is also need for support by the whole public, namely; health institutions, non-govermental as well as govermental organisations, doctors, educators, media, public employees, municipalities, religious men, each and every member of the public. Here, national public relations and social awareness campaigns play a vital role. It seems that remedy is in the social awareness campaigns and in transplant coordinators as in the case of Spain. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27396 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27396 Çiğdem Eda ANGI, Yılmaz ŞENDURUR The aim of this study is to determine the correlation between high school students’ demographical qualifications and music genres that they listen. The universe of the study is the high schools in Ankara which are connected to National Education Ministry, the sample is 634 students from 7 high schools from various districts which are randomly chosen from each genres of high school. At the prepared questionary firstly dataset was researched whether it answered for mormal dispersion with Kolmogorov-Smirnovtesti. Therefore elements have normal dispersion, for comparing two groups Independent Sample Test had been used, for comparing more than two groups One-Way ANOVA had been used. For determining whether groups are different from each other Scheffe Test was applied, tests for comparing groups had been searched with Levene Test, variance homogeneity assumption. For the analysis in the study, IBM SPSS 20.0 package programme had been used. In accordance with the result of the study, when general grades of musical genres were analysed, it is seen that the most favourite music genre is pop music. It is seen that there are differences on musical choices of students who have different demographical qualifications. When choice grade of music genres are compared with age, sex, the high school that they study, ability playing any musical instruments and the residential they stay to longest duration before they start to go to high school , it was determined that there were significant differences. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27387 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27387 Feyzullah ŞAHİN In this study, mentorship as a strategy of differentiating a curriculum was investigated in meeting the educational needs of the gifted students continuing their education in elementary school classes consisting of students at the level of mixed ability.

It gives some eases both students and teachers. One of the main problem in distance learning learner works on their own self without any interaction with an instructor or other learners, so in time of students motivation decreases. In the last decades it became clear that social interaction is an important ingredient in many learning situations, so distance learning needs to be reconstructed. We can say this situation is beginning of the concept of "blended learning". This term refers to a learning solution that incorporates a mix of distance and face-to-face elements. Blended learning is a way to support face face to learning with education technology. At its simplest, blended learning is the thoughtful integration of classroom face-to-face learning experiences with online learning experiences. Blended learning combines e-learning in its various forms with traditional types of training, teaching and learning. Blended learning presents lifelong active learning environments through increases student-student and student- teacher interactions in face to face and online education part. This study gives information about blended learning by the help of literature and explains applications basics of blended learning advantages, disadvantages and different from distance education. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27371 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27371 Hikmet Zeki KAPCI Intelligence activities are important for all states. The need to obtain information is the foundation of intelligence. Knowledge is the most powerful weapon that it finds humanity. Those who are able to use this weapon are dominate the world. Turks were found in intelligence activities in different ways throughout history. Huns, Göktürks, Topas and Uighurs were encountered in the espionage activities conducted by state officials. Stars Intelligence Agency when II. Abdulhamid period established and The Special Organization when Union and Progress period established have played important roles in the intelligence field. Information was also collected during the National Struggle with different organizations. Its named groups that Karakol Cemiyeti, Zabitan, Yavuz, Moltke, Hamza, Mücahit, Muharip, Felah, Mim Mim and "P" Organization has intelligence activities during the National Struggle. Directorate General of Press-Publication and Intelligence is one of them has worked depending on the Turkish Grand National Assembly. Directorate General of Press-Publication and Intelligence has opened offices in Rome, Zurich, Berlin, Paris and Moscow. Agents in this office have followed the news in the media of their country. They have collected information and news that Matin, Echo de Paris, Le Petit Parisien, Le Temps, The Morning Post and The Observer newspapers in addition to Stephan Agency with Berlin transceiver and Bordeaux transceiver. This news was sent to be translated to Ankara. Thus, Ankara government that following closely the movements of the Allies gained the opportunity to follow in Russia, Germany and the Islamic world.

It has very difference topography because it is very young and active in terms of tectonic. Study area occurs a lot of geomorphologic units. Tectonism is the most importance factor to form. Furthermore, fluvial processes and karstification are secondary factors to take on shaping. Main geomorphologic units on the Düziçi plain which is nearly 90 km2 and near surrounding are Mountain-hills area, plateaus, valleys, brings alluvial fans and karstic forms which are small scale. Düziçi plain is elevation between 250 and 450 meters (average 350m.). Alluvial fans are between 300-400 meters in the east part of plain and mountainous-hilly areas are especially between 400-2246 meters in the part of east. Very small hills which are pressed down and volcanic cone are between 200-700 meters except for east other sides near the plain. Study area shaping had started from Miosen after that time tectonic activities had continued so, plain area has collapsed but mountainously area has increased since Miosen and along Pliosen-Quaternary. In the study area volcanic activity especially basalt flow and deposition in the lake had continued during the Plio-Quaternary and Quaternary era. In this way, Düziçi plain which is between 250-400 meters and its near surrounding have occurred and shaping which is especially erosion-deposition have been continued by rivers-weather present days (Holocene). 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27421 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27421 Oğuzhan GÖKTOLGA, Bekir GÜNDOĞMUŞ Until recently, the importance of culture in analysis of the globalization under the shadow of the economy, necessitated examining the impact of globalization on culture and counter-attitudes of culture.

Because of this it has arid and semiarid regions. Due to such climatic conditions so that in such climates different in the history of Anatolia were faced drought in different periods and famine events. Experienced drought effected agricultural production and community that made farming his life maintenance is left to in lurch. The community in difficulties have been forced to migrate from time to time to area which didn’t suffer drought or less experienced. To meet the needs of cooking or seed cereals for community try to provide by the government. Sometimes the tax deferral, making cash assist from the rural banks or agricultural help fund to drought has been struggling.

This method, which is one of the basic works of bassoon repertoire, is the expanded version of ‘Méthode Nouvelle Etraisonnée pour le Basson,’ also written by Ozi and published in 1787. This new publication includes four additional chapters, as well as more detailed and exemplified theoretical applications. Ozi’s knowledge on difficulties of bassoon technique is reflected in his methods. It is observed that especially his studies and technical exercises, which are focused on specific registers to be developed, facilitate overcoming technical difficulties. Besides writing pedagogical repertoire, the composer made substantial improvements to the mechanical structure of the bassoon. He also did examinations on reed making, which is one of the most important elements for bassoonists. In this study, it is aimed to contribute basson pedagogy by transmitting the innovations brought by Étienne Ozi and his method ‘Nouvelle Méthode de Basson,’ which is an importantpart of basson pedagogy, to the modern bassoonists 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27365 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27365 Savaş SERTEL, Şahin YEDEK Belgium is a country located in Western Europe and industrialized small.

While utilizingany work of press, political events of that epochand their relations with the power arenotable because it is inevitableto approach with suspiciontoall sorts of information and document. In this way, reliability and value of the information utilized will be verified. The first newspapers published in The Ottoman Empirewere Takvim-i Vekâyiand Ceride-i Havadis.These two newspapers having a critical place in the birth of press and journalist training were financed by the power, and this caused that their publishing policies were determined rather in parallel with the power. By 1860’s, the private press emerged and a new understanding of journalism taking strength from the people was developed. Articles with political content and power oriented criticisms began to appear on press. The officials of the epochspread on effort to prevent thecriticisms by putting new law enforcements or additionalacts. In responseto this attitude of the power, the journalists preferred to go abroad in order to work freely. The provisions again stthepress never worked out completely. For instance, Ali and Fuat Paşalar put a number of prohibitions, they closed down orcencored some newspapers punishingly.During the epoch of Sultan Abdülhamid II, provisions restricting freedom of press were taken. Later on short-term freedom of Mesrutiyet II (ConstitutionalMonarchy II ), punishments started again. During World War II and The Occupation of Istanbul, strict control and cencorship continued. Inresponse to this firmattitude of the power, there were also some journalists standing out and trying to do their duties. For instance, with Tercüman'ı Ahval and Tasvir-i Efkar, there were also bold publications of some journalists like Şinasi, Namık Kemal and Ziya Paşa. Over the last 68 years of The Ottoman Empire, there were press and journalists, some of whom were a menable to the press while the rest of them were not. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27350 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27350 Veysel AKKAYA The nature of Throne (Arsh) and sitting of God upon it (istiwâ) has been one of the crucial matters discussed between scholars. Because sitting upon of God connotes anthropomorphism. From the very beginning of Islam up to these days it has been a controversial issue. The first period scholars said that the “arsh” means “throne”, but they abstained from interpreting the the Qur’anic verses and Prophetical Sayings (Hadith) which denote to this term. In later interpretations the term Arsh was interpreted as “sovereignty” (mulk). In short, most of Sunni theologians has been convinced that it covers both meanings. Ibn Arabi also is among the scholars who are in the opinion that both meanings complete one another. He, on one hand tried to interpret the Qur’anic verses and prophetical sayings related to Throne and sitting of God upon it from a perspective which insists on the unresembelance of God, and also tried to understand and interpret the anthropomorphic verses in accordance with the unresemblance of God without ignoring resemblance of Him. On the other hand he ascribed different meanings to the concept of ‘Throne’ and put forward a rich or multi-dimensional envision of Throne. Although he accepts the Throne as one of the spheres and appears as if he shares the same opinion with the Medieval Islamic philosophers, he also attributes some symbolical meanings to “the Throne.” He believes that the sphere of Throne can be known only by inspiration or by heart. According to him, the sphere of Arsh is not in the visible realm as understood by the philosophers, so it can be seen only by spiritual exploration. It is at the same time one of the levels of existence. It is the biggest entity that surrounds all other visible entities, and it has a soul. While its body gives us the meaning of ‘Throne,” its soul implies “sovereignty.” According to Ibn Arabi, it is wrong to understand “sitting of God upon the Throne” just like the sitting of a king on his throne. “Sitting upon” here implies to the glory or loftiness of God. Throne is the center of Divine management in the world. While the throne meaning of “Arsh” corresponds to the heart in human being, the sovereignty meaning of it corresponds to his bodily forces. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27392 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27392 Yasemin DARANCIK In this article the advantage of the social network “Facebook” in respect of language acquisition was investigated. Facebook is a social network that is operated by the US-Company Facebook Inc. Any user of Facebook has a profile page on which he can imagine and upload photos and videos. On the Wall of profile visitors can leave publicly visible messages or post comments on their own contributions of the profile owner. Groups to highlight their common interests can be established and friends can be invited to the event. Generally, social networks are concern only for fun and they don’t used for the real purposes. In fact, Facebook includes groups, pages and persons who are particularly well equipped for German as a foreign language. These pages were designed to teach German as efficiently. In this study, the pages, groups and persons which are placed in Facebook were surveyed, presented and exhibited and their importance in view of German language was explained. In this social network, there are different pages to improve the four skills in foreign language teaching. During the investigation of Facebook pages, this point was concerned. As result, Facebook can be used efficiently to learn a foreign language. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27400 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27400 Erol DEMİR Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have an effective role in the economy of many countries as the locomotives in today's world. According to the data of the SME Strategy and Action Plan 2011-2013 (KOSKEB, 2011, p. 29) by published The Ministry of Industry, SMEs’ share in all enterprises in many developed countries is over 99 %. For Turkey, this ratio is 99.9 % and according to the same report’s 2008 data, SMEs provide the 78 % of total employment in Turkey. Having a high degree of importance of SMEs require to investigate their needs academicly and to support these companies in terms of scientific knowledge. In this study, the accounting softwares which are used by SMEs to create their accounting information system are examined and it has been investigated that what criterias are evaluated by SMEs when they choose the most appropriate accounting software for their business. The research data has been obtained by condacting a survey and sampling has been chosen as SMEs operating in Ordu, Ünye. Survey results are analyzed by SPSS 18 software and the results was evaluated in the conclusion and discussion part of the research. In this study, it is founded that most of the SMEs chose one of the accounting software in the market instead of designing a special software for their own business, they often choose the software based on the information they obtain from their own certified public accountants or the marketing expert of the accounting software, and they are mostly satisfied with the technical services of the software. In addition, the most widely used computerized accounting software specified by the sample in this study is Vega. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27382 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27382 İskender DAŞDEMİR, Gizem ENGİN For many years, studies related to teaching and learning conceptions have been conducted. It is accepted that traditional and constructivist teaching-learning conceptions are contrary to each other. When these studies are examined, it is seen that while traditional approach is teacher-centered, contructivist approach is student-centered. This research is a descriptive study aiming at revealing the present situation, as well. In the research, primary school teachers’ teaching-learning conceptions were evaluated with regards to gender, seniority, and higher education institute which teachers graduated. It was conducted with 325 primary school teachers working in İzmir, Bornova District, and in the year of 2013-2014. The data were gathered with a part of “Teaching and Learning Conceptions Questionnaire” developed by Chan and Elliot (2004). The used part of the questionnaire was adapted in Turkish by Aypay (2011). For the data analysis, t-test and ANOVA statatistical methods were applied. According to the results of the study, it is stated that primary school teachers’ preferred constructivist approach to traditional approach and teaching-learning conceptions did not differentiate in terms of gender, seniority, and higher education institute which teachers graduated, significantly. This research was conducted with quantitative data gathering tools. In the future studies, qualitative data gathering tools can be used, too. Teaching profession is a speciality field required persistent development so the importance of emphasis on teaching and learning conceptions emerges. For teachers’ having the equipment necessities of the time, they should be educated with the subject of teaching-learning conceptions and technology for effective using of these conceptions via in-service training. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27398 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27398 Sibel DEMİR, Fatma ŞAHİN Science, information obtained using the scientific method, and consists of scientific method (Gürdal, Şahin and Çağlar, 2001). In contrast to the closed-ended experiment in open-ended experiment students will only be used tools and are given the purpose of the testing (Ayas ve diğerleri, 2008). The research was undertaken with the 3rd graders of the department of the science education of a university in Istanbul. It was aimed to understand how capable are these 3rd graders to create open-ended experiments by using the available materials. A series of theoretical knowledge and examples about the scientific process skills and the types of experiments had been presented to the science teacher candidates for 2 weeks. Following this stage, the science teacher candidates were expected to plan their problems, hypotheses, variables and experiments by using the written materials which were submitted by the researchers. The problems, hypotheses, variables and experiments, which were created by the science teacher candidates, were assessed qualitatively and these assessments were compared with the frequencies. It was seen that the teacher candidates were not capable enough to create sound open-ended experiments. Thus, it was tried to figure out how capable are the science teacher candidates to create the scientific problems, hypotheses, variables and open-ended experiments and to use their scientific process skills. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27410 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27410 Ayça KARTAL, İlhan TURAN The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of mind mapping technique on students' success and permanence of knowledge in social studies course in the fourth grade of elementary school. The research, carried out as semi-experimental, was put into practice in the second term of 2010-2011 academic year for the fourth grade students of Köprüköy Primary School in Ardeşen, Rize. In the study, the class of 4-B (N=14) was determined as the control group while the class of 4-A (N=18) was determined as the experimental group. In the study, academic achievement test was used as data collection tools. Academic achievement test was developed to determine the exchange of academic achievements of the students by researchers. For the research, Mann Whitney U test was used in the Analysis of quantitative data (if the two groups) and in the comparison of the parameters between groups. Friedman test was used in order to determine whether there is a significant difference between pre test-final test of each group. Wilcoxon Signed Rank test was used as the post-hoc test. Results were evaluated at 95% confidence interval and p 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27327 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27327 Burcu YILMAZ ŞAHİN In the economic field, both developed as well as in the developing countries, adopted the economic system and economic policies are applied accordingly increasingly similar. World trade liberalization tends gradually. Being adopted free trade instead of protectionism opinion and understanding of international economic relations are increasing openness of the country. The concept of openness in general, refers to the degree of integration with the global economic power of an economy. Of economic globalization, political and technological factors that influence the speed gained 1980s, the concept of openness literature of economy has become one of the discussion topics to the forefront. Countries are ranked according to the openness and appeared different views on the definition of openness and measurement. Researchers about the criteria used in the calculation of openness between the consensus was not achieved. Openness different criteria were used in the empirical study. Most important problems related to openness can not be observed a variable. One method of measurement openness is obtained openness index measurement method using dummies. Another method that trade shares of export and / or import of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), or ratio. Commercial interests method is the most commonly used method because of the ease of access to data. Since most of the data can be obtained for the country, the comparison can be made between countries. Another method of measurement is to measure the main obstacles to trade, which is based on the effects of openness. Defined the concept of openness in the study and explained the different measurement. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27375 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27375 Ünsal TAZEGÜL, Özbay GÜVEN In the most general sense, Narcissism can be defined as person’s extreme adoration to his own physical and mental abilities.

In the analysis of the datas definitive statstic and One Way Anova has been used for determining the difference between the variance more than two, and also Tukey test has been applied for determining the difference between the variances.At the end of the research, It has been found out that The Athlethes’ narcissism score, who make body-building sport, is more than the other athlethes within the context of research and participants who are not sportsmen. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27377 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27377 Tuncay AKSÖZ There are many different theories and disciplines which are trying to research religion and religious belief. But since nearly 30 years, we have been witnessing the birth of a new discipline, CSR (Cognitive Science of Religion) which is studying religion.In fact CSR is the subdiscipline of CS (Cognitive Science).It claims its difference from the other disciplines and theories which are situated.CSR is trying to find universality of religion and religious belief in all human beings with the features of human cognition as linguistics has done with the universality of language before.In this research we are trying to explain what the religious belief is in CSR. We are going to explain the tendency of our cognitive structure to religious belief and how our cognitive structure produces religious belief.Because we were born with the tendency of religious belief because of our cognitive structure according to CSR.In this study, we try to expain the main theories and approaches of it and lastly we try to give the general critics of this discipline. Because Evolution occurs against religion with a new approach again. It manages that by making explanatins on psychological concepts like instinct, mind, cognition, intution.Beside that It claims its scientific dimension including artificial intelligence, computer science and neuroscience.Therefore I believe that Theologians in Turkey should be aware of this discipline which has serious and important arguments on religion and belief and antireligious rhetoric. 2024-08-29 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27394 https://jasstudies.com/?mod=makale_tr_ozet&makale_id=27394 Ahmet GENÇ, Cüneyd AYDIN In this study, we present the counseling sessions administered to a client who has been in a long-term mourning period. Although it has been a long time after the multiple losses experienced by the client, there has been no decrease in client’s response to the losses. In the sessions, integrative counseling with client-centered approaches, cognitive approaches Malkinson model (2009) and Worden model (2001) were administered. In the first sessions, basic counseling techniques such as confrontation and interpretation were avoided. The client was supported in order to establish trust and realistic language was used.Cognitive forms were utilized to follow the thoughts of the client. Techniques such as exploration of automatic thoughts, exposure, letter writing, mini-survey and socratic metod were also used. In addition, psycho-educational information which explains the situation was also provided in the sessions. The client lost his/her mother nearly two months after losing his wife/husband. Although it has been eighteen months over the deaths, there has been no decrease in client’s response to the losses and the client was not able to adapt to a life without her/her husband/wife. A total of twenty-two sessions, including monitoring studies, were held. The primary aim of the sessions was to help to the client in re-interpreting, configuring and adapting to his/her life after the losses and to develop adaptive strategies towards to changing life conditions. At the end of the sessions, although all the predetermined goals are not achieved, the favorable outcomes are noteworthy. 2024-08-29
