Publication Open Access Designing a project management e-course by using project based learning(2010) Keser, Hafize; Karahoca, Dilek Yiğit; Keser, Hafize, Faculty of Educational Sciences, Ankara Üniversitesi, Ankara, Turkey; Karahoca, Dilek Yiğit, Faculty of Engineering, Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi, Istanbul, TurkeyThe aim of this study is designing an e-course system for Project Management courses. The primary objective of the system is providing course materials for students and increasing the course success. The e-course platform will assist the students for changing their negative feelings with positive ones such as when they feel anxiety, feel of failing the course or having pre convinced attitudes for the course. The e-course platform will has Cognitive Learning Tool, Learning Cards for Key Terms, Key Term Matching, Cognitive Concept Maps and Online Adaptive Examination modules inside. For analyzing the students' needs a survey was conducted. Survey is organized based on to the first eight steps of project based learning approach. Survey results show that validity of survey is high (Cronbach's alfa, 0.86), and also significant correlations obtained between factors. These results state that e-courses should be supported with project based learning approach and real life projects. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Web Mining is an application of data mining which focuses on discovering patterns from Web logs and data. The semantic structure can be built with the pattern or relation results discovered via web mining. By combining those two applications of both disciplines, it's possible to achieve Semantic Web Mining which is a recent hot topic in educational research. This paper gives an overview of current applications of Semantic Web Mining on e-learning which already became a base component of education. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Twenty male and female adult university students at the upper intermediate level were randomly assigned into a control and experimental group. The participants in the experimental group performed pre-listening tasks through which they received general prior information about the content of the lectures. They then listened and answered some multiple-choice comprehension questions that asked for the specific information in the lectures. The statistical analysis of the data revealed that the experimental group did not perform significantly better than the control group. The findings indicated some of the limitations of compensating models and cast doubt on the assumption that contextual likelihood necessarily assists the processing of lower linguistic levels. Implications for language classes are suggested. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

After the first year of this theoretical education, the assignments and exams become more practical and applicable. The same situation keeps going in business life for CS and Information Technology (IT) areas. This will result the male outnumbering to the females in education and business life for CS relative areas. In this study, we try to discuss some inferences about this underrepresentation of females in such areas. The more practical nature of CS is held as a basis of statistical hypothesis and some statistical tests are performed on theoretical and practical overall grades of female and male students in Bahcesehir University. The results and findings are delivered with the final discussions. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Learning Management systems (LMS), also known as VLE, have lots of functions in the process of learning activities as well as the course administration and tracking, but they still have some limitations which decrease the effectiveness of learning. With their functions of giving the opportunity of involving in the process of constructing meaning from experiences to students, 3D virtual environments have emerged to remediate such LMS problems. SLOODLE is a dynamic learning environment which links 3D virtual environment, Second Life, to an open source LMS, MOODLE(). The aim of this study is to outline weaknesses of traditional LMSs and explore the features of 3D virtual learning environment, SLOODLE, as a potential solution. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Computers are now the major supplementary material for most of the courses. Conventional classrooms are now changing with modern classrooms where computer aided education is applied. This study focused on observing the difference of student success in computer aided education versus conventional education on programming module in Information Technologies course which is taught on tenth class of secondary education. For this research, two identical student groups each having 25 students are formed. Conventional methods are applied to the first group and computer aided methods are applied to the second group. The obtained results are evaluated by variance and ANOVA. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Results of the survey were evaluated from 192 adult students who are educated in Istanbul as reference pattern. According to the survey results, adult students have some problems caused by various reasons during education period. Especially due to inability of continuing regularly training sessions, open and catch-up education objectives couldn't be fully reached. Adult students will have flexible use of time and location by taking the theoretical part of their face to face vocational courses over the internet. Some of the problems can be solved by giving training in such a way to the students who have sufficient internet and computer skills. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
