Authors: Uz Abdullah 
Published: November 2016

Türkiye’de müzik yetenek havuzunun değerlendirilmesi konusunda büyük sorunlar vardır ve bu sorunlar büyük ölçüde müziksel toplumsallaşma süreciyle ilgilidir.Araştırmanın amacı Türkiye’de müziksel toplumsallaşma sürecinin özelliklerini ve işleyişini ortaya koyarak, bunların müzik yetenek havuzunun değerlendirilmesiyle ilişkisini belirlemektir.Çalışma, belgesel tarama ve 1988, 1999 ve 2011’de yapılan müziksel toplumsallaşma betimsel araştırmalarının bulgularını temel almıştır. Müziksel toplumsallaşma araştırmalarının örneklemini Mehmet Akif Ersoy Üniversitesi Sınıf Öğretmenliği Lisans Programı, Meslek Yüksekokulu ve Akdeniz Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi lisans birinci sınıf öğrencileri oluşturmuştur.Müziksel toplumsallaşmada çocukluk dönemi çok önemlidir; ancak Türkiye’de eğitim sistemi çok geç yaşlarda müzik eğitimi olanağı sağlamaktadır. Üstelik yetenek havuzunun çok küçük bölümüne ulaşılabilmektedir. Özel girişim bu boşluğu bir ölçüde doldurmuş. Toplumsallaşma etmeni olarak ailenin ve müzik eğitiminin/öğretmeninin etkisi azalmış; kitle iletişim araçlarının özellikle İnternet’in müziksel toplumsallaşma sürecindeki etkisi artmıştır. Yeteneklerin geliştirilme çabasının yerini pasif dinleyici olma eğilimi almaya başlamış; ayrıca yeteneklilerin, statüsü yüksek alanlara kayma eğilimi hızlanmıştır. Keywords: Müzik yetenek havuzu, toplumsallaşma süreci, müziksel toplumsallaşma, müzik eğitimi, kitle iletişim araçları.

Teaching Traditional Music in Malaysian Schools: Considering the Cultural Context
Authors: Shah Shahanum Mohd , Adam Masumi Mohamad 
Published: November 2016

AbstractWhen dealing with traditional music, cultural context and authenticity are issues that need to be considered in designing the teaching of local music traditions. Traditional music is, by nature, an oral tradition. Learning traditional music among musicians was by non-formal education, i.e., by listening, observing and playing. The transfer of skills and knowledge was carried out orally within the community of musicians. With the advent of formal music education in schools and universities, notation is now being used in part to facilitate and expedite the learning process. However, teaching certain traditional music using notation may not only be a misrepresentation of the authentic practice of this music but may also not give students the skills necessary in playing traditional music as opposed to playing in western ensembles. Establishing an accurate context for practical activities on the gamelan can provide not only a sound methodology but also allow for appropriate evaluation.This study examined the teaching approaches of selected Malay traditional music in Malaysian schools and universities. This study utilized a qualitative approach. Ten school and university gamelan instructors were interviewed on the nature of the transmission process of traditional music in the classroom. Based on the responses provided by these respondents, it appears that the nature of the transmission process may not occur in the cultural context and that preservation is of the music and playing techniques. Keywords: traditional music, cultural context

Authors: Bayram Kadriye , Yıldızlı Hülya , Saban Ahmet 
Published: November 2016

This study aims to investigate what preservice teachers’ goal orientations are in the learning environment through the card-sorting activity. Moreover, this study aims to examine preservice teachers’ goal orientations in terms of certain variables such as gender, class level and department type. Participants consisted of preservice teachers attending different departments at Nevşehir Hacı Bektaş Veli University in Turkey. In this research, the card-sorting activity and a semi-structured interview form were used as data collection tools. As suggested by Friedrichsen and Dana (2003; 2005) in the literature, to identify preservice teachers’ goal orientations for learning, a card-sorting activity consisting of scenarios was prepared and used by the researchers. In the card-sorting activity, goal orientation scenarios were formed according to Elliot and McGroger’s (2001) 2x2 goal orientations structures. Scenarios and the semi-structured interview form which were used in this research were formed upon consulting specialists. This study was designed in the case study approach of the qualitative research methodology. Finally, the data collected were analyzed by the descriptive analysis technique. The results indicated that preservice teachers associated themselves with the learning approach goal orientation the most and the performance avoidance goal orientation the least. Recommendations for implementation were offered to practitioners. Keywords: Preservice teachers, goal orientations, card-sorting activity, semi-structured interviews

Determining the perceptions of pre-service science teachers regarding environmental problems through word association
Authors: Yucel Elif Ozata , Ozkan Muhlis 
Published: November 2016

In this study, Word Association Test (WAT) was administered to 123 people in order to determine the perceptions of pre-service science teachers regarding environmental problems. “Environmental Problems” was given as a key word to the pre-service teachers, and they were asked to write what came to their minds on WAT and make one sentence about this concept. The responses concerning the key word were examined under six themes: “causes”, “effects”, “types”, “measures”, “worry/pessimism”, and “other”. The pre-service teachers were seen to have stronger cognitive structures about the causes of environmental problems in comparison to other themes. Most participants confused the concepts of environmental problem and environmental pollution. They mostly focused on the effects of environmental problems on human beings and had worry and pessimism. Emphases laid by the pre-service teachers on environmental awareness, consciousness, and love in regard to the measures that can be taken against environmental problems demonstrate that they think education is important for the solution of environmental problems. The research results reveal that perceptions regarding environmental problems are not adequate among the pre-service science teachers. This lack of perception among the pre-service science teachers, who are to play an important part in raising environmental awareness, can be eliminated only through an effective environmental education. Keywords: Perception of Environmental Problems, Environmental Education, Science, Word Association, Pre-Service Teachers
