This study examined school type differences in fifth-grade students’ fractional knowledge with data from a university-school partnership. Students (n = 203) from a public school and a private school willing to collaborate in University within School Project participated. Results revealed that there were significant school type differences in fractional knowledge favoring private school students. Since school type differences have important impacts on the quality and equity of mathematical outcomes, we need to strongly consider the implications of these school type-related differences and pay attention particularly to the structure of schooling in public schools and the student performance in private schools.

A content analysis of the postgraduate theses on STEM in Turkey2019 •
STEM is an approach standing for the disciplines of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (Wang, Moore, Roehrig & Park, 2011). The STEM approach, which enables us to see disciplines as pieces of a whole and combines knowledge and skills, has been included in the teaching systems in recent years (Özmen, 2008). Thus, STEM has significantly attracted the attention of researchers in Turkey and many theses have been prepared concerning STEM since 2014. As reviewing the theses on STEM may guide studies in the future, this study aims to review the postgraduate theses on STEM in Turkey and determine general tendencies to STEM education. In the study, document analysis method was used. Data of the study were acquired from the postgraduate theses on STEM which were published. Within the scope of the study; publishing languages, years and departments, universities and institutes, research designs and methods, sample groups and sizes, data collection tools and numbers, data analysis methods and topic titles concerning the theses were analyzed. The data were analyzed with descriptive content analysis, interpreted based on frequencies and then presented in tables. As a result of the study, it was found that the most theses were made in 2018, the number of postgraduate theses was higher than the number of doctoral theses, postgraduate theses were made only in 30 universities and the theses were published mostly in the department of science education. In addition, it was determined that majority of the theses were written in Turkish and they were mainly published in the institute of science and prepared using mixed design and method. As a result of the study, it was also found that the sample groups mostly consisted of middle school students, the number of individuals in the sample was mainly 51 and more, scales were used as data collection tools the most and two data collection tools were preferred more often. Finally, it was determined that table, t-test and content analysis were often used as data analysis methods and views concerning STEM, STEM career areas and the effect of STEM applications on scientific process skills and science teaching were mainly reviewed as topic titles. It was concluded that there had been an increase in the number of theses on STEM in recent years. As a consequence, it can be recommended to conduct a similar study in different databases with different search criteria. In addition, a greater importance can be attached to teacher’s education in studies on STEM and institutes can make more postgraduate theses on STEM.
Meslek liseleri, iĢ hayatına ara eleman yetiĢtirebilmek için ortaöğretim kademesinde eğitim veren bir kurumdur. Bu liselerde okuyan öğrenciler, yükseköğretim eğitimlerine devam edebilmek için katıldıkları yükseköğretim geçiĢ sınavı (YGS)‘nda genelde baĢarısız olmaktadırlar. Literatür çalıĢması neticesinde meslek lisesi öğrencilerinin bu sınavda baĢarısızlıklarının nedenleri çeĢitli çalıĢmalarda matematik bilgilerinin zayıf olması ve matematiğe olan önyargıları olduğu olarak tespit edilmiĢtir (Ünlü, 2007; Bekdemir, 2009; Mumcu ve AktaĢ, 2012; Avcı, CoĢkuntuncel ve Ġnandı, 2011; TaĢdemir, 2013). YGS sonucunda lisans programlarına yerleĢemeyen öğrencilerin geneli sınavsız geçiĢ hakkından yararlanarak meslek yüksekokullarında bulunan ön lisans programlarına devam etmektedir.

The paper provides a critical overview about teaching children in regular classrooms, designing and enriching curricula for gifted children and using multiple intelligence theory as teaching mathematics by giving several examples. Teaching mathematics or science to gifted children doesn’t seem easy because every student is different than each other. In order to eliminate the expected problems the curriculum should focus on many things like their interests, abilities and their needs. Thus differentiation in terms of content, product and environment is the key concept to prevent some challenges in regular classrooms. Also, the paper attempts to look at enriching curricula for gifted children by providing different strategies to teachers as implementing programs such as designing education plan to see their learning styles, characteristics and interests in different areas or using computer technology such as expecting project preparation with individual or small group work. This approach is related with multiple intelligence theory as well which will be used as a benchmark for the last part of this study. Thus, the study focuses on the alternative methods and strategies. Also in Turkey throughout history, education of gifted students has been conducted by Arts and Science Centers (as called BILSEM)and study of some institutions and associations. However, parliamentary questions suggested in 2011 and strategy plan established in 2013 have shed light on necessity of support of gifted and talented students.
The main aim of this study is to investigate the changes in 37 years period of different political identities and strata (socialists, Kurds, Alevies) of Turkish origion migrants who migrated from Turkey to the UK as political refugees following the military coup d'etat on September 12, 1980, and to compare the differences between the various perceptions of them concerning the time of migration and today situations. The data of the study are collected with 375 household surveys, 75 structured and semi-structured interviews done with the related residents of Cambridge, Cardiff, Bournemouth, Coventry, and particularly in London where the Turkish population resides in England at most in 2016. To achieve the aim, firstly, the reasons of migration from Turkey to the UK are searched. Secondly, a comparison made on their political views, economic standarts and life expectations between the time they arrived UK and today. It is found that there are important changes in their political views, political insprations, political thoughts and behavioral conducts from beginning to today time.

What can be a cornerstone or stumbling block in a relationship between parents and teachers?2018 •
The aim of this paper is to analyse parents’, kindergarten teachers’ and primary school teachers’ evaluations of prosocial behaviour of a child. This study is based on the data collected during a longitudinal study (ECLAT project supported by Croatian Science Foundation (HRZZ-IP-2016-06-3917) about executive functions, individual characteristics, parenting, and early experiences in transition from preschool children to primary school-aged children. Child development can be best conceived within a set of inter-related systems that simultaneously exert their influence on children, thus, the child’s development does not depend exclusively on individual factors, but also on the systems of interaction within the child’s life environment (Bronfenbrenner, 1979) so we gave emphasis on parents and teachers perspective of a child. The study involved 160 pairs of children and their parents randomly selected, their former kindergarten teachers and current primary school teachers. In the first round, parents and kindergarten teachers completed a questionnaire about a children’s prosocial behaviour at home and in preschool setting respectively. In the second round (a year later), the children’s prosocial behaviour was evaluated again, this time by parents and primary school teachers. The project has the statement of the ethics committee of Faculty of Social Sciences. An informed consent has been obtained from children' parents and children every year. The parents’ and educators’ perception of the child can bring them together to cooperate or bring the two of them apart. The parent-teacher partnership is positively associated with the child’s wellbeing, social orientation, emotionality and learning.

Examining the views of mathematics teachers on information about scientists in the middle school mathematics curriculum and textbooks2019 •
In this study, it was aimed to examine the views of mathematics teachers on information about scientists in the middle school mathematics curriculum and textbooks, which were updated in 2018. The study was conducted using the survey research design. Sample of the study consisted of 253 middle school mathematics teachers. A form consisting of open-ended questions was used to determine the views of the teachers. Data were analyzed using the content analysis method. As a result of the study, it was found that the large part of the teachers did not find information about scientists in the curriculum and textbooks effective. Most of the teachers indicated that the reason for them to find information about scientists in the curriculum and textbooks ineffective, because these did not contain any or detailed information about the life and work of scientists. It is recommended for those who prepare the curricula and textbooks to consider the results of this study.
