Abstract

The awareness, attitudes and behaviors of teacher candidates, who will be employed in primary and secondary education, about renewable energy within the scope of environmental education have a great importance. In this context, the purpose of this study is to investigate any significant differences in teachers' attitudes about renewable energy in relation to some variables. The research was conducted in the academic year 2011-2012 with 134 (87 female and 47 male) samples. The samples are the students from the Departments of Pre-School Teaching, Classroom Teaching, and Teaching Geography in Near East University in Northern Cyprus. The data analysis was based on "Renewable Energy Attitude Scale" developed by Morgil et al. in 2005, whichconsists 39 questions and based on 5-likert scale. The validity and reliability of the "Renewable Energy Attitude Scale" was computed by the researchers, and the number of the questions was decreased to 33 after they were adapted to the Cypriot culture. SPSS 16 program was used for data analysis. The arithmetic mean, the frequency - the percentage distribution, t-test and one-way analysis of variance were used in analyzing the data. It was found that the department, gender, class and environmental education received at the university make a significant difference in the environmental attitudes of teacher candidates, whereas their parents' education and environmental education received at high school do not make any significant difference in the environmental attitudes of teacher candidates.

İlk ve ortaöğretimde görev alacak öğretmen adaylarının çevre eğitimi kapsamında yer alan yenilenebilir enerji konusundaki bilinç, tutum ve davranışları büyük bir öneme sahiptir. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın amacı öğretmen adaylarının yenilenebilir enerji konusundaki tutumlarının, bazı değişkenlere göre anlamlı farklılık gösterip göstermediğini araştırmaktır. Araştırma 2011-2012 öğretim yılında Kuzey Kıbrıs’ta bulunan Yakın Doğu Üniversitesindeki Okul Öncesi Öğretmenliği, Sınıf Öğretmenliği ve Coğrafya Öğretmenliği Bölümünden 87 kız, 47 erkek olmak üzere toplam 134 öğrenci üzerinden yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın verileri Morgil ve arkadaşları tarafından 2005 yılında geliştirilen ve 5li likert tipinde 39 sorudan oluşan “Yenilenebilir Enerji Tutum Ölçeği” esas alınarak sağlanmıştır. Ölçeğin geçerlik güvenirlik çalışmaları araştırmacılar tarafından tekrar hesaplanmış, ölçek Kıbrıs Kültürüne uyarlanarak madde sayısı 33’e indirilmiştir. Veri analizinde SPSS 16 programı kullanılmıştır. Veriler aritmetik ortalama, frekans - yüzde dağılımı, t-testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda elde edilen bulgulara göre öğretmen adaylarının çevre tutumlarının bölüm, cinsiyet, sınıf ve üniversitede almış oldukları çevre eğitimi bazında değişkenlik gösterdiği, anne-baba eğitim durumu ve lisede almış oldukları çevre eğitimi değişkenlerinde ise anlamlı bir farklılık yaratmadığı saptanmıştır.

Abstract

Helical Communication Model is a communicator model developed by Dance showing that communication is a dynamic process and developed over time between the sender and receiver, so that in each stage of the communication process the new doctrines in terms of knowledge and experience can be added to the model. In this study, it is aimed to investigate the communication level of teachers and administrators, who are working in secondary schools of TRNC that are subject to the Ministry of National Education and Culture, in terms of some personal variables. The study was conducted along with the correlational survey model, with 7 administrators and 61 teachers in schools at Güzelyurt region, Türk Maarif College and Güzelyurt Kurtuluş High School, in the 2010-2011 academic year. In the study, communication skills of administrators and teachers are determined with the use of "Helical Communication Scale" prepared by the researcher in accordance to the Dance’s Helical Communication Model. Arithmetic mean and the independent t-test were used to analyze the data. Results were interpreted according to the sub-objectives of the study, and in the conclusions section, suggestions have been made against the identified communication deficiencies.

Abstract

Problem Statement: Thought and behaviour patterns or habits of the people constitute the foundation of environmental problems. Assemblies, where the first step of the environmental protection awareness is taken politically, are supporting the recognition of this necessity with recently increased number of laws, and motivating individuals towards becoming eco-friendly. From this point, the problem sentence of this research was determined as "What is the level of the environmental attitudes, sensitivities and awareness among the staff and members of the TRNC Assembly?". Purpose of Study: The purpose of this study is to determine and associate the environmental attitudes, sensitivities and awareness of the staff and mem-bers of the TRNC Assembly, which is the centre where generally the laws, and specifically the environmental laws are drafted and implemented, and thus the environmental sensitivity of which is vital. Methods: The correlational survey model has been conducted in this research which is a quantitative study. The sample group is comprised of 44 persons randomly selected among 150 Republican Assembly members and staff. Data is collected by means of a questionnaire comprised of 3 sections and 72 items, which evaluates environmental awareness and environmental attitude. SPSS 16 programme is used for analysing the data. The data is analysed using arithmetic mean, frequency-percentage distribution, t-test, and one-way analysis of variance. Findings and Results: The evident obtained as result of the research suggest that the environmental attitudes / awareness of assembly members and staff is at "average frequency"; that there is a significant correlation between awareness / attitude and variables of age, education level, and the environmental education they have received in the past; and that, on the contrary, there is not significant difference in terms of the variables of gender, seniority, and membership to an environmental foundation. Conclusions and Recommendations: The general arithmetic means of answers given to Environmental Awareness Scale and Environmental Attitude Scale by staff and members of the Assembly showed a "medium frequency" level. In order to ensure and sustain environmental protection and environmental awareness, first of all education of persons should be supported. Environmental education lessons should be given to increase the low levels of environmental perception among TRNC assembly members and staff, who should be provided with certain knowledge, perception, and skills related to this issue.

Abstract

Schiff base podands have been synthesized by reaction of triethylene glycol bis(4-aminophenyl) ether with salicylaldehyde, 5-substituted salicylaldehydes, and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde. Manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), and copper(II) complexes have been prepared from the salicylaldehyde-based podand via reaction with MCl2 · n H2O. The structures of the ligands and complexes have been studied by elemental analysis, FT-IR and UV-visible spectroscopy, 1H and 13C NMR, and thermogravimetric analysis. The UV-visible spectral and TG data suggest tetrahedral geometry of the metal complexes. The antimicrobial activities of the ligands and metal complexes have been evaluated as minimum inhibitory concentrations with respect to bacteria and yeast cultures. The interaction of the Schiff base podands with calf thymus DNA has been investigated by UV-visible spectroscopy, and intercalative binding to DNA has been found. The anion recognition ability of all Schiff base podands has been examined by UV-visible spectroscopy. A visually detectable color change has been observed upon addition of fluoride, cyanide, hydroxide, and acetate ions due to formation of 1 : 1 H-complexes and/or deprotonation of the receptor. No significant color change has been observed upon addition of other anions such as dihydrogen phosphate, bromide, iodide, thiocyanate, perchlorate, and hydrogen sulfate.
