This study aims to explore an activity to teach chaos theory. For this purpose, we used inquiry-based learning as a method. The activity explicated in this paper demonstrates how chaotic systems can be studied using the inquiry-based learning method. As a part of the activity, students discussed the reasons of the chaotic motions of the thread cones.

Effectiveness of conceptual change instruction accompaniedwith demonstrations and computer assisted concept mapping on students' understanding of matter concepts Yavuz, Ayşe; Geban, Ömer; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2005) The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of conceptual change instruction accompanied with demonstration and computer assisted concept mapping on seventh grade students understanding matter concepts. In addition, the effect of instruction on students̕ attitudes toward science as a school subject and the effect of gender difference on understanding matter concepts were investigated. Seventy five, seventh grade students from four classes of a General Science Course taught by the sam...
Hierarchical behavior categorization using correlation based adaptive resonance theory Yavaş, Mustafa; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Department of Computer Engineering (2011) This thesis introduces a novel behavior categorization model that can be used for behavior recognition and learning. Correlation Based Adaptive Resonance Theory (CobART) network, which is a kind of self organizing and unsupervised competitive neural network, is developed for this purpose. CobART uses correlation analysis methods for category matching. It has modular and simple architecture. It can be adapted to different categorization tasks by changing the correlation analysis methods used when needed. Cob...
Understanding college students motivation for physical activity participation The role of gender sport type and activity level Yazıcı, Tuba; Koçak, Mehmet Settar; Sözeri, Barış; Altun, Merve (2016-07-14) The present study aimed to investigate the motivational factors which has an influence on college students’ participation in recreational physical activities. In this sense, gender, sport type (team or/and individual sport) and level of physical activity (MET scores) differences within motivational dimensions were examined. In the frame of the current study, a convenience sampling strategy was utilized. 383 Middle East Technical University students (Mage= 21.42, SD=3.30) voluntarily participated to this stu...
Investigating middle school mathematics teachers' views on innovative learning activities Erbasan, Elçin; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç (2022-02-02) This paper describes a phenomenological study exploring middle school mathematics teachers’ views, enablers, and barriers regarding innovative mathematics learning activities by investigating their experiences. The study also aims to determine their suggestions that may lead educational stakeholders to increase the quality of instruction and student learning. Data collected from the interviews and qualitatively analyzed reveal that the enablers mainly were related to receiving support and positive feedback ...
Professional development of preservice biology teachers through reflective thinking Savran Gencer, Ayşe; Çakıroğlu, Jale; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2008) The study aims to explore preservice biology teachers’ reflective thinking content and levels by examining the use of a reflective framework integrated into one semester Practice Teaching course. More specifically, this study focused on the development of reflective thinking skills of preservice teachers and their metaphorical images about learning and teaching process. Data were collected through both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The written documents and audiotaped debriefings taken during the...
