Review Exploring the Factors Affecting Shared Biking Perception: Insights From Türkiye(Ege univ, fac economics & admin sciences, 2024-04-08) Oflaç, Bengü; Özcan, Seda; Sevil Oflac, BenguUnderstanding consumer perception regarding shared biking services requires the analysis of psychological factors underlying the late diffusion of shared biking services. In this regard, by scrutinizing these underlying factors, we aim to uncover insights that can inform the development of targeted business strategies that better align with users' preferences and needs, thereby overcoming barriers to adoption and facilitating the wider dissemination of shared biking systems. Findings show that as consumers perceive shared biking services as useful and hedonic, their attitudes become more favorable. Importantly, highlighting the mediating role of compatibility, this study emphasizes the congruence among shared biking services, consumers' lifestyles, and their traveling habits. Findings also suggest that perceived complexity has a negative impact on shared biking attitudes. Interestingly, no significant relationship was found between perceived risk and shared biking attitude. The findings provide further support for innovation diffusion and theory of reasoned action. The suggested theoretical framework integrates variables related to both barriers and drivers, thus guiding future studies on the sharing economy. The study also provides insights that contribute to the development of service design and marketing strategies that respond better to users' needs, and also, facilitate the spread of these mobility systems.Review Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 40Current Evaluation and Recommendations for the Use of Artificial Intelligence Tools in Education(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2023-12-01) Sagin, Ferhan Girgin; Özkaya, Ali Burak; Tengiz, Funda; Geyik, Öykü Gönül; Geyik, CanerThis paper discusses the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in education, delineating their potential to transform pedagogical practices alongside the challenges they present. Generative AI models like ChatGPT, had a disruptive impact on teaching and learning, due to their ability to create text, images, and sound, revolutionizing educational content creation and modification. However, nowadays the educational community is polarized, with some embracing AI for its accessibility and efficiency thus advocating it as an indispensable tool, while others cautioning against risks to academic integrity and intellectual development. This document is designed to raise awareness about AI tools and provide some examples of how they can be used to improve education and learning. From an educator's perspective, AI is an asset for curriculum development, course material preparation, instructional design and student assessment, while reducing bias and workload. For students, AI tools offer personalized learning experiences, timely feedback, and support in various academic activities. The Turkish Biochemical Society (TBS) Academy recommends educators to embrace and utilize AI tools to enhance educational processes, and engage in peer learning for better adaptation while maintaining a critical perspective on their utility and limitations. The transfer of AI knowledge and methods to the teaching experiences should complement and not replace the educator's creativity and critical thinking. The paper advocates for an informed embrace of AI, AI fluency among educators and students, ethical application of AI in academic settings, and continuous engagement with the evolving AI technologies, ensuring that AI tools are used to augment critical thinking and contribute positively to education and society.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Crime and Media: the World of ‘reality Show’ as a Moral Frame of Reference(Milli Folklor Dergisi, 2017) Erol Isik, Nuran; Yaman, Burcu; Erol, Nuran IşıkCrime and transgression has become an important factor which is portrayed by the media outlets. The genre called crime reality show situated within the genre of reality show in the media in recent years has a special place in popular cultural world of meaning. Those who are accepted as protagonists, confessors, interrogators, victims and vigilantes are among the major actors in crime reality shows which function as constructing various different cultural and sociological frames of reference. The purpose of this article is to answer to the following questions: What does the crime reality show narrative tell us about contemporary Turkish culture? What are the implications of such a genre in terms of producing a televisual morality? What are the dynamics between socially irresponsible imagination and the idea of moral panic constructed via sensibility guided reasoning? In this paper, we argue that the crime reality show genre in Turkish television employs communicative strategies which are based on mediatization of morality as well as a new trend called prudentialism.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 13Social Media in Political Communication and the Use of Twitter in the 2011 General Elections in Turkey(Ahmet Yesevi Univ, 2014-01-27) Bayraktutan, Gunseli; Binark, Mutlu; Comu, Tugrul; Dogu, Burak; Islamoglu, Gozde; Aydemir, Asli Telli; Binark, Ferruh MutluSocial media environments, which are basically new media applications, have many users both in Turkey and in the world.
