The Effect of Teaching Physical Programming on Computational Thinking Skills and Self-Efficacy Perceptions Towards Computational Thinking
(JOURNAL OF EDUCATIONAL COMPUTING RESEARCH, 2024-06) Yurdakok, Ezgi Arzu; Kalelioglu, Filiz
The study examined the effect of teaching text-based programming with a physical programming tool on secondary school students' computational thinking skills and self-efficacy perceptions. The study was conducted according to a sequential explanatory design as a mixed method research. The study group consisted of 85 secondary school students. Within the scope of the study, a physical programming tool called Micro:bit was used to teach Python programming for a period of 6 weeks. Data were collected using the Self-Efficacy Perception Scale for Computational Thinking Skill, Bebras: International Challenge on Informatics and Computational Thinking Tasks, tests focused on programming tool, concepts, and processes, and through semi-structured interview questioning. According to the findings obtained from pretests and posttests, a significant and positive difference was found in the students' computational thinking skills and self-efficacy perceptions towards computational thinking skill. As a result of having received instruction in programming, the students satisfactorily learnt the required programming concepts and processes. Through learning Python programming with a physical programming tool, the students not only gained the skills required to write appropriate syntax, and to test and debug code, but they also learnt programming concepts such as variables, conditional expressions, loops, and functions.
How Can Prosocial Silence Be Golden? The Roles of Commitment to Learning and Organizational Support
(LEARNING ORGANIZATION, 2024-03-12) Kizrak, Meral; Yeloglu, Hakki Okan
PurposeDrawing from organizational learning theory, social exchange theory and positive psychology approach, this study aims to examine the relationship between commitment to learning and prosocial silence, as well as the mediating role of perceived organizational support (POS) in this relationship.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used path analysis to examine the relationships between research variables. Data were collected from 275 employees of private sector companies in Turkey through an online survey platform. To test the proposed hypotheses, the authors conducted regression and mediation analyses using the bootstrapping method.FindingsThe results indicate that the organization's commitment to learning positively and significantly impacts employee prosocial silence, and POS partially mediates this relationship.Practical implicationsManagers who aim to promote other-oriented and helping behavior in the organization should understand how prosocial silence can be golden. They should cultivate and model a learning mindset by focusing on strengths instead of weaknesses, reward experimentation and provide employees with timely feedback allowing them to think and reflect on their failures.Originality/valueAlthough the dominant position of previous studies endorses the detrimental sides of organizational silence, less research has focused on employees' prosocial silence behavior and the underlying mechanisms that may explain employees' tendency to remain silent with helpful intent, a gap this research attempts to fill.

Identifying Metaphors Towards Physiotherapists
(PLOS ONE, 2024-12-26) Durdubas, Rabia Tugba; Yildirim, Yildiz; Yosmaoglu, Hayri Baran
The aim of this study was to identify mental images that physiotherapists and student physiotherapists have regarding the concept of physiotherapist through metaphors. The study was a mixed-methods research that combined latent content analysis and categorical data analysis. Data were collected from 207 physiotherapists or physiotherapy students. Content analysis, a qualitative method, was performed on the raw data, which was composed of each participant's statement completing the following sentence "Physiotherapist is like & mldr; because & mldr;". Metaphors for physiotherapists were centered around 12 concepts. Most cited metaphor by student physiotherapists was "healer" (29.4%) and it was "guiding" (17.2%) for in-service physiotherapists. The rate of the "negative connotation" category in in-service physiotherapists (7.1%) was 2% higher than that of the student physiotherapists. Women mostly emphasized the "healer" (21.9%) category, while men mostly emphasized the "healer" and "supporter" (17.8%) categories. Participants aged under 25 and 26-35 age group were mostly in the "healer" category (26.4% and 18.8%, respectively) but the participants aged 36 years and over mostly opted for "guiding" and "supporter" (20.0%). There were fundamental differences between student physiotherapists and in-service physiotherapists in terms viewpoint regarding physiotherapy as a profession, and that these differences vary by gender and especially by age. During the undergraduate period, it will be beneficial to ensure that students have a realistic perspective with versatile training programs.
Pharmacy Practice And Policy Research In Türkiye: A Systematic Review Of Literature
(JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL POLICY AND PRACTICE, 2024-12-31) Gulpinar, Gizem; Pehlivanli, Aysel; Babaar, Zaheer Ud-Din
BackgroundIn recent decades, there has been an interest in clinical pharmacy practice in T & uuml;rkiye with emerging studies in this area. Despite the recent emergence of diverse pharmacy practice studies in T & uuml;rkiye, a comprehensive assessment of overall typology of studies and impact has not been conducted thus far.ObjectivesThis systematic review aims to document and assess pharmaceutical policy and practice literature published within the last 5 years in T & uuml;rkiye. The other aim is to summarise the expected impact of published studies on policy and practice research.MethodsThe systematic review was conducted according to the guidelines described in the PRISMA Statement. A comprehensive search approach, incorporating Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) queries and free-text terms was employed to locate pertinent literature related to pharmacy practice and policy in T & uuml;rkiye. The search covered the period from January 1, 2019, to January 1, 2024, and involved electronic databases including PubMed, Medline Ovid, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Springer Link, PlosOne, and BMC.ResultsIn the final grouping, 73 articles met the inclusion criteria and were selected for this review. Among the quantitative studies, majority studies were cross-sectional survey studies. Through the rigorous thematic content analysis seven research domains were developed from the selected literature: drug utilisation and rational drug use, the emerging role of pharmacist, access to medicines and generic medicines, community pharmacy practice, pharmacovigilance/adverse drug reactions, and pharmacoeconomic studies.ConclusionsThe pharmacist role is evolving; however, several challenges remain in fully realising the potential of pharmacists. These include regulatory barriers, limited public awareness of pharmacists' expanded roles, workforce capacity issues, and the need for ongoing professional development and training. Research studies are needed in the areas of generic prescribing, medicine adherence, intervention studies in community and hospital pharmacy practice, and on pharmacoeconomics and pharmacovigilance.
