Item Quality and Reliability of YouTube Videos for Hand Surgery Training(2023) Savran, Suleyman; Albayati, Abbas; Ozkan, Burak; Uysal, Cagri A.; 0000-0003-2806-3006; 0000-0003-3093-8369; AAC-3344-2021Background Hand injuries might present with exposed tendons, bones, and neurovascular structures, requiring flap reconstruction. Comprehending various flap options for hand injuries requires detailed knowledge, surgical skills, and considerable practice. Surgery residents commonly use web-based learning; one is YouTube for surgical education. We aim to evaluate the reliability and quality of the videos on YouTube for hand surgery training. Methods Video extraction from YouTube were done by keywords on 24 August 2021. JAMA scores and flap reconstruction of the hand-specific scoring system (FH-SS) were used to evaluate the selected videos. Results The mean JAMA score and FH-SS were 1.72 and 8.54, respectively. JAMA scores and FH-SS of the videos from Europe were significantly lower than from America and Asia (p = 0.0001 and p = 0.0063, respectively). The JAMA scores of physicians were significantly higher than that of medical sources (p < 0.0001). Conclusions The low JAMA score and the average FH-SS suggest that YouTube videos are unreliable and poorly qualified for hand surgery residents. The high JAMA score of the physician's videos emphasizes the reliability of YouTube videos depending on the sources. Surgery residents should be skeptical of the information of YouTube videos on surgical education. Level of Evidence: Not ratableItem Impact of Religion on Opinions About Organ Donation and Transplantation in University Students From a Single University in Turkey(2021) Ozsoy, Balin; Herrera Gayol, Andrea; Unal, Yasemin; Askar, Medhat; Haberal, Mehmet; Cantarovich, Marcelo; 0000-0002-3462-7632; 0000-0002-3976-2286; 34325622; AAJ-8097-2021Objectives: The objective of the present report was to analyze the opinions, attitudes, and practices of Baskent University students with regard to the impact of religion on organ donation and transplantation. Materials and Methods: We sent a web-based, 5-point Likert scale questionnaire (1: strongly disagree; 5: strongly agree) to capture the opinions and attitudes toward organ donation and transplantation after participants attended or did not a panel discussion on these topics. Results: We sent 361 E-mails and received 69 responses, of which 46 students attended the panel discussion. Most of the participants who attended were part of the faculty of medicine. Participants who did not attend were composed of students from other faculties at Baskent University. Religion played less of a role with regard to opinions on organ donation in those who did not attend. Of the attendees, 54.3% strongly agreed to become organ donors, 50% believed in the important role of religion in organ donation, and 54.3% believed that media sources play important roles in shaping public opinion on organ donation. The majority felt comfortable discussing organ donation with family and friends. Conclusions: Although religion has an undeniable effect on the decision-making process, our survey showed that more than half of the participants were willing to become organ donors. Education, through the joint efforts of medical and religious scholars, as well as the media, should contribute to raising awareness on organ donation, thus contributing to increased access to transplantation worldwide.Item Examination of using monoscopic three-dimensional (M3D) and stereoscopic three-dimensional (S3D) animation on students(2020) Tasti, Mehmet Burak; Avci, Ummuhan; 0000-0001-7007-1478; A-8635-2019This study examined the effect of using Monoscopic Three-Dimensional (M3D) and Stereoscopic Three-Dimensional (S3D) animation on students' achievement and perceptions. A total of 66 ninth-grade students participated in this Explanatory Sequential Mixed Design study. At the beginning of the study, an academic achievement test was applied, and then at the end of the study the same academic achievement test, plus an animation opinion scale, an animation rubric, and a structured interview form were applied to both groups. T-test, descriptive statistics, and content analysis were used for the data analysis. The results showed a significant difference in the post-test scores in favour of the students using the S3D animation. Both groups of students provided positive feedback concerning the use of animations in their course; however, they highlighted that S3D animations were more effective and enjoyable. Conclusively, this study is expected to contribute to the limited literature and open a new window for future studies. Additionally, this study may guide instructors towards increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of their instruction within courses that require visual input and scaffolding.Item Educating Future Energy Engineers for Sustainability: Case Study in Energy Economy(2015) Kilkis, SiirThis paper analyzes the case study of an interdisciplinary course in Energy Economy that was developed at the Energy Engineering Graduate Program at Baskent University. The course integrated several unique pedagogical features to satisfy the aim of developing a working knowledge in energy economy with an energy systems perspective. The novel aspects of the course thematically led to a capstone research project where 5 teams of 17 course participants analyzed their prioritized solutions towards improving the energy self-sufficiency of the campus based on the practice of energy economy. The results of the teams' solutions towards a net-zero energy/exergy campus included electric buses for city-campus transport, poly-generation for the new Arts Center, LED/OLED lighting for campus lighting, dynamo driven/piezoelectric sports center, biofuels from the university-owned dairy products farm, and an energy efficient technology incubation center. This unique course with participatory learning is compared with others before concluding that the case study is a useful international example for energy economy.Item Assessing the knowledge in primary health care following an educational course structured in the context of GARD chronic airway diseases national control program(2017) Balkan, Arzu; Oner Erkekol, Ferda; Kokturk, Nurdan; Mungan, Dilsad; Sackesen, Cansin; Onen, Zeynep Pinar; Ozkan, Secil; Ergun, Pinar; Kocabas, Can Naci; Baran Aksakal, Nur; Ekici, Banu; Ozkan Altunay, Zubeyde; Gemicioglu, Bilun; Yorgancioglu, Arzu; 0000-0002-4032-0944; 28990886; AAC-7548-2020Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases are common causes of disease in the community and account for considerable percent of the caseload in primary health care facilities. For this reason, it is important to question and improve the knowledge of primary health care physicians. This study is designed to assess the level of knowledge for bronchial asthma and COPD of the primary healthcare physicians, both before and immediately after an educational course structured in the context of GARD Chronic Airway Diseases National Control Program. Materials and Methods: The participating physicians attended an intensive educational course on asthma and COPD. Twenty five item questionnaires for asthma and COPD were administered to the participants both before and immediately after the end of the course. Contribution of education to the level of knowledge was investigated by comparing the percentages of the correct answers in the pre-and post-test. Results: From 11 different cities, 1817 and 1788 primary health care physician were attended to the asthma and COPD educations, respectively. The accuracy rate of >= 75% was obtained from only 4 questions in pre-test asthma questionnaire. On the contrary, in 15 questions the accuracy rate was < 50%. The mean accuracy rate for the whole asthma test was 45.8%, and this rate raised to 69.6% after education course. The accuracy rate of >= 75% could not be obtained from any of the questions in pre-test COPD questionnaire. On the contrary, in 19 questions the accuracy rate was < 50%. The mean accuracy rate for the whole asthma test was 42.0%, and this rate raised to 71.3% after education course. Conclusion: It has been shown that, in primary care settings, the level of knowledge in asthma and COPD should be enhanced and that this increase can be achieved with an education course.
