The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the job performance of physical education and sports teachers and their level of organizational justice and opposition. The study group was composed of 575 physical education and teachers of sports who were selected by the simple random method among individuals who worked as physical education and sports teachers in the state schools affiliated to the Istanbul Provincial Directorate of National Education in the 2019-2020 academic year. Data collection methods and tools used in this research; personal information sheet, job performance, organizational justice and organizational opposition scales were implemented. The obtained data were recorded with IBM SPSS 22.0 (version) package program and the all analyzes were accomplished with this statistics program. Descriptive information, subtitles and total scores of the scales were given by determining the frequency (f) and percentage (%) values. Correlation analysis was used as a statistical procedure. As a result, while there was no correlation between physical education and teachers of sport job performance and procedural justice, one of the subtitles of perception of justice, a low level of negative correlation was found between interaction, distributive justice and attitude towards organizational justice total score. Again, no relationship was found between job performance and the total score of vertical and horizontal opposition and organizational opposition which are sub-headings of organizational opposition. This may be due to the fact that administrators do not adequately reward the job performances of physical education and sports teachers due to increasing interest of managers towards teachers who conduct lessons for exams important in terms of students. In addition, it is thought to be caused that physical education and sports teachers do not have any difficulties in expressing themselves due to both their professional competencies and their self-expression and high communication skills that physical education and sports bring them.

Purpose: The present study aimed to scale the political tactics used by teachers and principals based on rank-order judgments. Research Methods: This study was a descriptive study in which the political tactics used by school principals and teachers were scaled from the most to the least frequently used ones based on rank-order judgments. The study group consisted of 488 teachers and 61 school principals, who were determined through simple random sampling technique among the universe working at the primary schools affiliated to Sehitkâmil District Directorate of National Education in Gaziantep in the academic year of 2019- 2020. The research data were collected using a 7-item instrument developed by the researcher based on the research conducted by Hoy and Miskel (2012) to identify the most frequently used political tactics in business organizations. Findings: According to the research findings, the rank-order judgments of teachers and principals for the use of political tactics differed. It was concluded that increasing indispensability was the most and scapegoating was the least favoured tactic by teachers, while networking was the most and increasing indispensability was the least preferred tactic by school principals. Implications for Research and Practice: Subsequent researchers may conduct qualitative studies on the reasons of teachers' and school principals' rank-order judgments regarding political tactics. Moreover, the present study was limited to primary school teachers and principals. Comparative studies can also be conducted on teachers and principals working at different levels of education.

Purpose: In this study, the hypothesis put forward is that empathetic tendency and respectful behaviour are related to conflict resolution skills and that the variable of respectful behaviour can play a role as a mediating variable between empathetic tendency and conflict resolution skills. Within the scope of the research, it is aimed to test these hypotheses. Method: Relational survey model was used in the study. The study group of the research consisted of 324 4th grade primary school students studying in Diyarbakir province during the 2018-2019 academic year and designated through a random sampling method. &quot;Conflict Resolution Skills Scale,&quot; developed by Gurdogan Bayir, &quot;KA-SI Empathetic Tendency Scale for Children,&quot; developed by Kaya and Siyez and &quot;Respectful Behavior Scale&quot; developed by Erken were used as data collection tools in the research. The data obtained were analysed by Structural Equation Model and Bootstrap analysis. Findings: Within the framework of the findings obtained, predictably, it was found that there is a significant relationship between empathetic tendency and conflict resolution skills and that empathetic tendency can explain conflict resolution skills by 36%. As also suggested in the research hypotheses, in addition to the existence of a relationship between an empathetic tendency and conflict resolution skills through a model in which respectful behaviour is a significant partial mediator, empathetic tendency can explain conflict resolution skills at a level of 54%. Implications for Research and Practice: In future research, it should be investigated, which skill, value, or demographic information etc. other than empathetic tendency and respectful behaviour may help explain the baffling variance ratio.

In this article, the researcher seeks to examine the right to education and study and women's labor rights in Iranian jurisprudence and law and the 2030 UNESCO document. The present study is a descriptive-analytical study using the library method to investigate the question. The results of the study indicate that both in Islam and Iranian law, as well as in international documents, the equality of women's rights with men is emphasized but the concept of equality in Islam is explained in the sense of proportion and not equality in international instruments, however, equality between men and women means that their rights are equal. Regarding the right to education, there is no contradiction between Iranian jurisprudence and law and the 2030 document because in both Iranian jurisprudence and law, as well as in the documents emphasized in the 2030 document, which leads to the empowerment of women, the right to equal education has been emphasized. Regarding labor rights, it should be said that in the conventions of the International Labor Organization, which are among the documents considered in the 2030 document in the field of women's empowerment, concessions in the field of women's labor rights have been included for them. Prohibition of hazardous work, breastfeeding hours, maternity leave are among these rights. In Iranian labor law, these advantages are also considered for women, and therefore it seems that Iranian labor law is in accordance with international instruments. The issue of equality can be analyzed in such a way that, although there are biological and natural differences between men and women, this situation should not lead to legal differences. Basically, biological differences are concerned with the realities of human existence, and the legal debate is concerned with human needs and although individuals are different in existential realities, they can also be similar in legal requirements.

Numerous studies demonstrated that the meaning-making of scientific knowledge is affected by the design of multimodal science texts. Various modes are co-operated together in certain inter-semiotic mechanisms to produce meaning in multimodal texts. Based on this perspective, this research seeks to investigate the effect of mode level in science texts and compositional arrangement on the meaning-making of science concepts and processes. In this context, four science texts with the same content (transformation of energy) at different mode densities and two science texts with the same content (covalent bonding) one of which is arranged in accordance with variation theory of learning are designed. By using the case study method, this research explored six experienced science teachers' views about the effects of mode level and multimodal text composition on meaning-making. The data were collected with semi-structured interviews. The thematic analysis was employed for data analysis. The findings demonstrated that mode density may affect meaning-making and so learning since different modes have affordance to represent different meaning and meaning relationship types. Besides, multimodal text composition may foreground the critical aspects of content, and help to design a coherent multimodal science text.

This research aims at investigating the effectiveness of the Predict-Explain-Observe-Discuss-Explain (PEODE) based laboratory work activities on pre-service science teachers' science process skills. A quasi-experimental research model with pre- and post-test via control group was employed in the research. The semi-experimental study was based on 46 preservice science teachers enrolled in the primary Science Education Program a state university. In the research, randomly selected two groups were used, one experimental group (EG; n = 22) and one control group (CG; n = 24). While the control group participated in traditional laboratory activities work, the experimental group took part in the PEODE-based laboratory work activities. Laboratory activities were carried out in both groups for a total of 9 weeks, two hours a week. Science process skills test (SPST) measuring five different scientific process skills were presented to them as pre- and post-test in order to assess pre-service science teachers' science process skills. The test scores were analyzed quantitatively with a statistical analysis program. At the end of the research, while there was no significant differences total score of the SPST, significant statistical differences were found between the experimental and control groups in &quot;Making Operational Comments&quot; and &quot;Designing the Research&quot; sub-skills.

Several previous research have described transformational leadership as successful leadership that led higher education to implement changes for the better. However, a more comprehensive survey on the implementation of transformational leadership in higher education has not been conducted. This research aims at observing a transformational leadership style with the model 4I, namely idealized influence, intellectual stimulation, individual consideration, and inspirational motivation, which is applied to higher education comprehensively. A survey method with questionnaires taken from lecturers working at higher education in Indonesia was used in this research. The findings revealed that attention given to individuals and reducing penalty towards any mistakes by subordinates must be given more attention so that the application of complete combination between one dimension and other dimensions and each indicator of transformational leadership must be carried out. This research is expected to have implications for the effectiveness of higher education leadership, and be used as a reference by higher education leaders in choosing a leadership style.
