The aim of this study is to reveal the relationship between, serious and indifferent leisure time and leisure management of Generation Y and its education in light of different variables. Leisure education was used in the study in terms of participation in activities, especially in terms of serious leisure participation information, and no measurement tool was needed in this respect. The study group consists of a total of 504 participants of Generation Y, including 164 women and 340 men born between 1980 and 1999. In addition to the personal information form, the &quot;Leisure Management Scale&quot; developed by Wang et al. (2011) and adapted to Turkish by Akgul and Karakucuk (2015) and the &quot;Serious and Casual Leisure Scale&quot; developed by Akyildiz (2013). It was determined that the data did not have a normal distribution, and the Mann Whitney-U Test was used to compare quantitative continuous data between two independent groups, and the Kruskal Wallis Test was used to compare quantitative continuous data between more than two independent groups. The Pearson Spearman Correlation Analysis was performed to determine the relationship between the sub-dimensions of the scale. As a result of the study, it was determined that there were significant differences according to the gender, leisure time and the adequacy of the recreation areas. At the same time, it was observed that there was a significant positive relationship between leisure management and serious and casual leisure sub-dimension.

The study aimed to develop and validate learning module on exponential and logarithmic functions based on the Understanding by Design lesson plan. The study was descriptive in nature, describing the instructional materials and its properties. The research flow was based on the works of Emily K. Dunsker in 2005 and the suggested procedure on formative evaluation by Talisayon and Vistro-Yu. Purposive sampling technique was used in determining the respondents. Respondents involved selected mathematics experts and grade 11 students. They were responsible for evaluating the module. Feedbacks of expert had served as guide in the module revision. Student respondents were involved in the formative evaluation. A word-sentence list forms were given to students to identify difficult or vague words, phrases and sentences as they read the module carefully. The module was subjected to readability test to determine the student involvement index, communication index and the grade level of the module. The study showed that the module has high involvement index, the communication index fell out of the acceptable range and the module level was college. These results called for another revision with complete change in structure and mode of presentation but still based on the Understanding by Design lesson plan. The study recommended to revised module and to subject it to readability test again to ensure that the module would be appropriate to the users. A summative evaluation is also recommended to determine its effectiveness.

It is not enough to be in college; the sports industry requires students undertaking different courses to gain career experience between spring break, parties, visiting and classes. Today, formal education in schools is expected to progress with practical education outside of school. This has led scholars to study different ways through which sports professionals can acquire more experience and become more effective in their work. An internship is identified as a potential way through which the professionals can gain career experience. This study reviews articles searched electronically from ProQuest, Google Scholar and the hardcopy documents from different sports journals so as to shed light on the impact of internship experience on the future career life of sports professionals. The results show that internship practice and out-of-school experiences increase the knowledge and skills of sports students. In addition, students whose knowledge and experience have increased started to be preferred by employers in their fields.

The aim of this study is to compare the endurance, fatigue, and heart rate shifts of physical education students who participate and do not participate in sports and recreational activities. The sample of the study consisted of 54 volunteer male students who participated in recreational activities and 50 volunteers who did not participate in recreational activities at Mersin University in the 2019-2020 academic year. After determining the physical properties of the participants, through the endurance test on the test battery designed by FIFA, their anaerobic endurance levels, fatigue levels after the fatigue protocol, and resting, warm-up, and exercise heart rates using the polar watch were measured. Independent-samples t-test used for binary comparisons was used to calculate the data of the research. According to the findings of the research, it was found that endurance, perceived fatigue, and heart rate shifts of the students who participated in recreational activities differed from those who did not participate in recreational activities (p &lt; 0.05). The results of this study show that those participating in recreational activities are older, taller and overweight. Besides, the endurance and fatigue levels of those participating in recreational activities are significantly higher. The resting heart rate, warm-up heart rate and post-fatigue heart rate numbers of those participating in recreational activities are significantly better than those who do not participate. As a result, the high number and high intensity of exertion exhibited at the maximum level in recreational activities or training cause a differentiation in some variables. It is thought that the shifts differ in parallel with the character of the game and the level of the participants. Participating in recreational activities and training is expected to positively affect students' endurance, fatigue levels, and heart rates as well as reduce negative health risk factors that may occur in later years.

Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) has recently been experimented with the hypothesis that it can acutely improve exercise performance. IPC's ergogenic effects have been a novel approach to improve anaerobic power and sprint performances. Since the beneficial effects of the underlying mechanisms on anaerobic power have not been clearly understood, the results obtained from different approaches are not sufficient to reach a clear opinion. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of IPC on anaerobic power and capacity in the physically active students to provide new findings to the literature. A randomized crossover order, twenty-four physically active male students voluntarily participated in this study. Students completed familiarization before pretest intervention and measurements. They performed a cycle ergometer Wingate 30s protocol resistance with 7.5% bodyweights in IPC and control conditions. The IPC protocol was performed at 220 mmHg, 5 min, 3 times as ischemia interspersed with 5 min of reperfusion. Participants were applied pre and post-test to elicit the effects of IPC on anaerobic performance. Paired sample T-Test was used to determine differences between pre and post-tests. All statistical procedures processed by using the significance level at p &lt; 0.05. The response to IPC treatment did not change anaerobic power and capacity performance outputs (PP t = 0.064, p = 0.95; MP t = -0.151, p = 0.881; PD % t = -0.328 p = 0.746). The application of IPC has not improved significantly any parameters of anaerobic performance. However, non-significant IPC effect on post-exercise lactate level to the extent of 15.32% (t = 1.43, p = 0.17) appeared.

The aim of this study is to examine graduate level theses that focus on digital content and completed between 1989 and 2019 in Turkey. Examination of the theses with the specified categories will show us their purpose and scope and which result has been achieved. We believe that this study will shed light on researchers to show how the trends emerged in terms of educational digital content. In order to identify the theses, the Dissertation Database of Turkish Council of Higher Education was searched by using digital content, digital material, digital story, and animation as keywords. As a result of the search, 150 studies were identified. Among them, 15 studies were dropped out due to their irrelevance, which left 135 theses for evaluation. For data analysis, descriptive content analysis method and categorical analysis technique were employed. The theses were reviewed based on publication year, institute, university type, subject, research method, research design, participants, data collection tools, and target audience. The descriptive results were provided in tables. Theses on digital content started to gain intensity mainly in 2000s and these studies were mostly carried out in the field of engineering and fine arts. After 2010, more research with the focus on digital content and animations was conducted in the field of education. The results revealed that most of them completed for master's programs at the educational sciences institutes between 2013 and 2019. In the field of Turkish education, similar studies, specifically on digital stories, were conducted after 2015. As a result, this study sheds light on graduate students in terms of the gap in the literature regarding digital content.

Today technology takes over the burden of men with a lot of developments and innovation. In the education field, many developments can be seen too. The concept of 'readiness' is one of the most important key factors in E-learning. As readiness makes learning easier, e-learning becomes easier as well. However, E-learning seems required under today's conditions. Even though Physical Education and Sports are based commonly on practising, it is possible to consider e-learning in the sports field. The purpose of this study is to determine readiness levels of sports science faculty students towards e-learning concerning some variables. The sample and population of this study consisted of 348 sports science faculty students (215 males, 133 females) from Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Trakya, Siirt and Mus university. In this study 'Readiness of University Students Towards E-learning Scale' developed by Yurdugül and Demir (2017) and a question form developed by researcher were used as a data collection tool. The scale consists of 33 items and 6 factors including computer self-efficacy, internet self-efficacy, online communication self-efficacy, self-directed learning, learner control and motivation towards e-learning. Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient of the scale was found as 0.93. In conclusion, sports science faculty students have readiness for e-learning. However, when subdimensions were compared in itself, motivation towards e-learning, self-learning, and learner's control subdimensions were determined to have significant differences.
