Meanwhile, community potential in other aspects has the opportunity to be improved. However, the village government has not paid more attention to the community regarding this potential. The program that the village government must promote in order to bring community welfare is economic development, this will certainly be realized if community empowerment programs are carried out which can provide more skills to the community to develop economic potential in the village environment.

The COVID-19 has been pandemic in the world and has resulted in so many deaths due to being infected by the virus, therefore this study aims to determine a suitable model in estimating the number of deaths due to being infected by the COVID-19. This study focus in Lampung, Indonesia. The analysis of the death number was using three methods, there waspoisson regression, negative binomial regression (NBR), and generalized poisson regression (GPR). From the results, three predictor variables have significant effect to the model, there was positive cases of COVID-19, number of poor people, and life expectancy, while population density per km2 has no significant effect. The best estimation model has smallest AIC and BIC values, and the poisson regression method is the best among other methods.

Authors: PELİVAN Mehmet
Published: March 2023

Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de iletişim anabilim dalları altında yapılmış ve gazete haberlerini konu edinen yüksek lisans tezlerinin ideoloji yaklaşımları incelenmiştir. Bu inceleme için önce Ulusal Tez Merkezi üzerinden anahtar kelimeler ile taramalar yapılmış ve iletişim anabilim dalları altında gazete haberlerini konu alan 409 yüksek lisans tezi tespit edilmiştir. Bunların içinden inceleme için, amaca yönelik teknik ile 23 tez seçilerek örneklem oluşturulmuştur. Örneklemdeki tezler nitel yöntem ile gerçeklik-ideoloji ilişkisi çerçevesinde ve üç başlık altında tartışılmıştır. Birinci başlıkta, gerçekliğin haberler ile aktarıldığını savunan liberal yaklaşımla yazılmış tezler ele alınmıştır. İkinci başlıkta, gazeteler ile gerçekliğin siyasi otorite ya da sermayenin çıkarları için çarpıtıldığını savunan ekonomik belirlenimci ve araçsalcı araştırmalar incelenmiştir. Üçüncü başlıkta ise ideoloji bağlamında gerçekliğin inşa edildiğini vurgulayan çalışmalara odaklanılmıştır. Bu üç başlık altında, tezlerde benimsenen kuramsal ve yöntemsel yaklaşımların ideoloji tartışmasına getirdiği sınırlılıklar ile çalışmalarda kuram ve yöntemin uygulanması esnasında ideoloji ekseninde ortaya çıkan sorunlar irdelenmiştir. Yapılan inceleme neticesinde, incelenen tezlerde ideoloji tartışmasındaki sorunlar üç başlıkta ele alınmıştır. Birincisi, benimsenen kuram ile yöntemin ideoloji kavramlaştırması ve çözümlemesi için yeterli olmaması sonucunda sınırlılıkların ortaya çıkmasıdır. İkincisi, tezlerdeki kuramsal yaklaşım doğrultusunda sorgulama yapıl(a)mamasıdır. Üçüncüsü ise tezlerde sorunsal olarak benimsenen ve yapılmak istenen ideoloji tartışması için yöntemin uygun olmaması ya da uygulan(a)mamasıdır.
A corpus-based teaching of lexical bundles to enhance writing skills of prospective Turkish EFL teachers
Authors: Uçar Serpil , Zarfsaz Elham
Published: March 2023

Despite the surge in lexical bundle instruction in EFL studies, very little research has looked at how explicit lexical bundle instruction affects prospective Turkish EFL teachers’ academic writing abilities on a quantitative level. As a result, the purpose of this study is to determine whether teaching lexical bundles has an impact on developing prospective Turkish teachers’ writing skills in terms of accuracy and appropriacy. Thirty aspiring EFL teachers who were enrolled in Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa University’s ELT program participated in the study. They were all 1st-year students taking academic writing classes. As a pre-test and post-test assignment, participants were to create an argument paragraph and data was collected with assignment worksheets. A paired-sample t-test was used to compare the writing scores of the participants before and after the lexical bundles’ instruction session to see if there was a statistically significant difference between the two. For accuracy, the researcher used Colovic-Markovic’s scoring matrix. Results were in favor of using lexical bundle instruction in EFL studies.

Online education has been around for a few decades now, with a growing number of higher education institutions offering various online courses either as part of a degree or as further professional development. However, the global COVID-19 pandemic forced the transfer of education from a traditional classroom to a virtual environment. Such a sudden transit meant that not only teaching and learning but also assessment had to be conducted online. The paper aims to present our experience of online assessment of a Medical English course delivered in the first semester of the academic year 2021–2022 to 1st-year medical students. Data were collected through observation. The results proved that the online system was effective in analyzing and assessing students.
