Publication Examining the key factors affecting teachers' translation of a theoretical framework from english into a native language: The Turkish case(Springer Heidelberg, 2023-03-11) Baştürk-Şahin, Burcu Nur; BAŞTÜRK ŞAHİN, BURCU NUR; Tapan-Broutin, Menekşe Seden; TAPAN BROUTIN, MENEKŞE SEDEN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Eğitim Fakültesi/Matematik Bölümü.; 0000-0002-1860-852X; W-2281-2017This study was aimed at exploring the key factors affecting postgraduate students-teachers' translation of a theoretical framework from English into their native language. The research was carried out with 21 Turkish postgraduate students who were also mathematics teachers, based on the theoretical framework of the documentational approach to didactics. The research was designed as a case study. The data were obtained from postgraduate students' weekly translation papers, the recordings of collective translation sessions, and the researchers' and the postgraduate students' reflective notes over a period of 7 weeks. The data were analyzed using descriptive and content analysis in order to investigate the factors influencing difficulties the postgraduate students had while translating. The analyses showed that the task of translating a theoretical framework at the postgraduate level led student-teachers to work on the meaning of the concepts and the unity of the framework and to reinterpret the source text. The research showed that the translation of the theoretical framework was strongly influenced by syntactic, sociocultural, and academic/educational differences, and these factors were interrelated.Publication Pre-service teacher scientific behavior: Comparative study of paired science project assignments(Ani Yayincilik, 2016-01-01) Bulunuz, Mizrap; Tapan Broutin, Menekse Seden; TAPAN BROUTIN, MENEKŞE SEDEN; Bulunuz, Nermin; BULUNUZ, NERMİN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Eğitim Fakültesi.; 0000-0002-6650-088X; 0000-0002-1860-852X; W-2281-2017; L-3255-2019; K-1318-2019Problem Statement: University students usually lack the skills to rigorously define a multi-dimensional real-life problem and its limitations in an explicit, clear and testable way, which prevents them from forming a reliable method, obtaining relevant results and making balanced judgments to solve a problem.Purpose of the Study: The study examines the processes undergone by students in two projects and the results of these projects. One of the projects was on the subject of heat waste in the buildings of a university's school of education. The other project was a new version of that project conducted by a group of students in the following year.Method: The study was conducted with eight pre-service science teachers who were third-year students in the Science Teaching and Laboratory Practices course at a state university's education school located in Turkey's Marmara Region. Case study, a qualitative research method, is used to obtain detailed and in-depth information. The research data for this report were obtained from the students' project posters, interviews with the instructor and semi-structured interview records of interviews with the students.Findings: In the first project, pre-service teachers had serious difficulty identifying a testable research problem they encountered every day as well as developing a method to solve such a problem. Therefore, the collected data could not be analyzed because of the complexity of the data, the failure to adjust the plan to reality and the abundance of variables. Pre-service teachers in the second project began by determining an explicit, clear and testable research problem, including dependent and independent variables, regarding the waste of heat in university buildings. Two factors were very influential for this project's success. First, re-evaluating a previous research problem was more advantageous than determining a research problem from scratch, which can be explained by the fact that science is a process that progresses cyclically and cumulatively. Second, there was more intense dialogue and cooperation between the instructor and the students in the second project than in the first project.Conclusion and Recommendations: The present study revealed that when linear scientific research project practices are replaced with cyclical scientific research processes, new and more advanced projects with a wider sphere of influence can be achieved. Providing pre-service teachers with scientific research opportunities is a way to help spread the attitudes and skills needed for research, development and innovative thinking more widely throughout society.Publication The √3 rectangle in islamic geometric patterns(Symmetrion, 2023-01-01) Şahin, Hatice Büşra; ŞAHİN, HATİCE BÜŞRA; Tapan-Broutin, Menekşe Seden; TAPAN BROUTIN, MENEKŞE SEDEN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Eğitim Fakültesi/ Matematik Eğitimi Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-1860-852X; W-2281-2017In this research, eleven different six-fold Islamic geometric patterns were analyzed geometrically, and the geometric relationships between the patterns were revealed. In the context of the Girih mode, the contributions of the small pattern mold constructed by using the symmetry axes to the geometric analysis of the patterns are emphasized. Patterns were considered whole, and small pattern molds were found using axes of symmetry. We have demonstrated that the rectangles of the small pattern mold of the six-fold patterns are root 3 rectangle. This rectangle is one of the mathematical concepts used in Islamic geometric patterns.
