In the globalizing world, quality in communication and internationalization are important. Higher education institutions are taking the necessary steps for the standardization. Quality commissions are formed to maintain the education given at universities to a certain standard, and private organizations and associations are widely engaged in communication. The European Association for Communication Studies and Education operates internationally works on various themes in communication. In Turkey, Communication Research Association established to accredit programs related to communication education; evaluates training programs upon the application of institutions, carries out the training activities of those who will take part as evaluators in accreditation studies, assists programs in meeting the necessary criteria, and carries out joint projects with educational institutions. The aim of this study is to reveal the relationship of the keywords determined as quality, internationalization and communication through the example of ECREA and to compare these themes with ILEDAK themes. Information about the similarities and differences between the quality standards of communication education in Turkey and Europe is obtained. The method is thematic content analysis. The data presented within the program outputs determined for the communication basic areas on the official websites of ECREA and ILAD.
According to Plato, a good state administration ("best"/ideal state) can only be combined with a good society ("best"/ideal society), and a good society can only be achieved with a good education ("best"/ideal education). He saw it as possible: "It must be able to be turned towards the most luminous aspect of existence, the direction we call -good-, right? Yes, education is the art of turning this power of the soul - for the good - and finding the easiest and most unfailing way for it. Education only leads him to the good side. It is up to us, the founders of the state, to lead people towards the knowledge of what we regard as the highest, to bring them out of the darkness into the light" (p.236-237). Since education is an idea-based and therefore an "ideological device" (Althusser, 2010), it acts as a kind of bridge between the state and society (Wiborg, 2000). This is the importance of analyzing Plato's Republic in terms of education policies.
Today, new communication technologies, which are used very actively in almost all areas of life, have brought about creation of the new communication platforms. These technologies, which build new processes especially in terms of the rapid and easy dissemination of information, are indispensable for the people. The field of education has also been heavily influenced by new technological developments and a wide variety of different education systems connected to technological tools have emerged. These structures, which are defined as distance education systems and created as a result of the union of new communication technologies and the field of education, continue to become widespread day by day in Turkey and in the world. When the studies in the literature are examined, the concepts of communication and interaction come forward as the main problem of distance education systems, and the similarity of the education process and the communication process draws attention. When looking at both processes, the feedback mechanism functions as a control. Therefore, success cannot be achieved in a process without this feedback mechanism. In addition, the person who is going to teach should have the skills to effectively manage the communication process. Distance education systems have an important place, especially at the higher education level. These systems, which have become competitors of traditional education systems, are a very current topic. In the study, starting from the concept of new communication technologies, the relationship between these technologies and distance education systems was emphasized and the necessity of the concepts of communication and interaction for distance education systems was emphasized. Within the scope of the research, the distance education portal of Fırat University was examined by using the descriptive analysis method, and the problems experienced in this process were determined and suggestions were made to solve these problems.
McDonaldlaştırılmış insanlar, McDonaldlaştırılmış Üniversiteler, McProfesörler ve McAkademi. Belirtilen bütün kavramların başlarına yerleştirilen bir sözcük "Mc". Bu kavramın hayatımıza etkisini göz ardı etmek mümkün değil. Söz konusu kavramının ilk çıkış noktası fast-food sektörüydü ve fakat belli bir süreden sonra onu aşarak insanlığın her alanını işgal etti. Başta okul ve üniversiteler olmak üzere hizmet alanlarının hegemonik gücü haline geldi. Oluşan hegemonik gücün içerisinde hayatımızdaki bazı geleneksel kavramlar içleri tamamen boşalarak yeni kavramlara dönüştü. Aynılaşma ilkesine maruz kalan "Öğretmenler" "McÖğretmenlere", "Üniveristeler" "McÜniversitelere", "Akademi" "McAkademiye", "Profesörlerler" McProfesörlere ve "Meslekler" de "McMesleklere" dönüştü. Oluşma safhasında olan bu durumun tehlikesi insanlık için vahim bir durum teşkil etmektedir. Çünkü insanlığın tarih boyunca gelişmesini sağladığı kurum ve alanların tamamen öznel paradigmalarını kaybedip hepsinin aynı oluşum içerisine girdiğini düşünsenize? Bu soruya yanıt vermek için yola çıkan bu çalışmanın amacı, dünyada "Yükseköğretimin McDonaldlaştırılması" kavramını yerli alanyazına kazandırarak bu konuyla ilgili sonraki çalışmalara yol göstermektir.
University education may influence attitudes toward gender roles. The awareness of students in the field of health services about the gender inequalities they will encounter both during the education process and in the future while providing health services will play a role in providing health services in a more effective and equitable way. In order for university students to approach men and women with an egalitarian perspective at an early age, their gender stereotypes must first decrease and their perspectives on social relations must change positively. Therefore, university education can play an important role in influencing gender perception and attitudes towards gender roles. There is no special course on prejudice and discrimination in the training programs of Vocational Schools of Health Services that train health technicians in Turkey. Based on this, this study aimed to examine the effect of the training program given to raise awareness of prejudice, stereotypes and discrimination on the gender perception and attitude of students who will provide health care in the future. For this purpose, answers were sought to the following questions: Is there a difference in students' gender perceptions of prejudice and discrimination before and after training? Are there any differences in students' gender role attitudes regarding prejudice and discrimination before and after education? Is there a relationship between gender perception and attitudes towards gender roles? As a method, a single-group the pretest-posttest semi-experimental method was used. The research was conducted with students taking the Prejudice and Discrimination course at the Vocational School of Health Services. 95 second-grade students participated in the research. The reason why sophomore students from the Disabled Care and Rehabilitation program, the Pharmacy Services program, and the Occupational Therapy Program were selected in the study is that the "Prejudice and Discrimination" course is given in the second-grade student spring semester. Descriptive Information Form, Gender Roles Attitude Scale (GRAS), and Gender Perception Scale (GPS) were used to collect data. Before the course program started, GRAS and GPS were administered to the participants as a pretest. Afterwards, a fourteen-week course period on "Prejudice and Discrimination" was carried out. At the end of the course, GRAS and GPS were administered to the participants as posttests. According to the students' descriptive characteristics, it was found that the mean age of the participants in the study was 21.6±3.3, and that 73.7% of them were female. According to the study, most students' mothers (56.9%) and fathers (38.9%) had completed elementary school. The families of 73.7% of the participants are nuclear families. The students' average number of siblings was found to be 2.8±2.1, and the majority (51.6%) of them had both brothers and sisters. The investigation discovered that 43.2% of the students lived primarily in the city center. Most students who participated in the study said that the Black Sea region was where they spent most of their lives (46.3%). The research revealed that prejudice and discrimination training provided via online distance education methods did not affect the gender perception and gender role attitudes of second-year Vocational School of Health Services students (respectively; p = 0.890, p = 0.976). However, a positive relationship was found between gender perception and attitudes towards gender roles (pretest r = 0,825, p < 0,01; posttest r = 0,893, p< 0,01). While the total scale score of women was higher than men according to GPS and GRAS scores according to sex before the training (GPS, p = 0.002; GRAS, p
This handbook suggests a global, transnational perspective on the history of education as a field. Apart from an introductory chapter written by the editors, the text includes 36 articles divided into six parts. Each article describes a subject in the field and ends with a bibliography for further reading. As repeatedly stressed in the book, this field has developed since the early nineteenth century with the emergence of the modern nation-state. Its scope and content expanded and underwent some transformations since the 1960s with the introduction of new perspectives, issues, and methods through interaction with the discipline of history and the broader social sciences.
The aim of the research is to bibliometrically analyze 1419 publications published in the field of information literacy in the field of education between 1989 and 2022 and indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database. The data of the research was reached on 01.02.2022 and 7,210 scientific publications were found as a result of the search. According to the scope of the research, a limitation was made in the category of "educational / educational research". As a result of these processes, bibliometric data of 1419 studies were accessed and the data were recorded. Percentage and frequency values of the obtained data were calculated and presented in tables and graphics. At the same time, the data of the studies were visualized by making bibliometric network maps using the VOSviewer package program. According to the results of the research, the highest number of publications in the education category related to information literacy in WoS were made in the articles, papers and book chapters, respectively, in 2018, the most common publication language was English, then Spanish, and the most academic publications were USA. It was later found that it was made in China. Purdue University and the Purdue University System are top-publishing authors affiliated. In Turkey, Hacettepe University is the institution where the authors who publish the most on information literacy work. After 2007, the citations increased every year compared to the previous year, and the most citations were made in 2021. In the educational research category, "information literacy, media literacy, teaching strategies, digital" are the most frequently used keywords in studies on information literacy. The study was conducted in the WoS database, and it can be recommended to compare the bibliometric analyzes in the Scopus, EBSCO and PROQUEST databases to researchers who can work on information literacy. stract:
