Our scope is to show how democracy has been trivialized as a concept and, more worryingly, as a mystified practice of consented servitude, which supposedly would bring to its very end. In fact, for the emblematic occidental societies, democracy has, at the best, been reduced to a consumerist way of life, under the capitalist liberal order, and the façade of a &quot;spectacularized&quot; electoral process. Overall, the word &quot;democracy&quot; is currently used to mask different forms of authoritarianism, from which nor even western societies escape. In such context, as to the promises of democracy for schools' systems, we see nothing but a bureaucratic centralization, allowing no more than an instrumental autonomy of power of execution through which the players only enjoy a &quot;voluntary servitude&quot; to the neoliberal naturalized ideology of efficiency, competitiveness and pseudo meritocracy. We thus conclude by suggesting possibilities of resistance and the empowerment of the subject.

The aim of this study is to model the happiness classification of university students--grouped as addicted, addiction risk, threshold and non-addicted to internet usage--with compatibility analysis on a map as happiness, average and unhappiness. The participants in this study were 400 university students from Turkey. According to the results of two-step cluster analysis, it was found that 21.10% of participants are in the &quot;addiction group&quot;, 26.60% participants are in the &quot;addiction risk group&quot;, 26.60% participants are in the &quot;threshold group&quot; which is between the &quot;risk&quot; and &quot;non-addicted&quot; groups, and 25.80% participants are in the &quot;non-addicted group&quot;. Additionally, two-step cluster analysis for happiness research showed that 15.90% of participants are in the &quot;happiness group&quot;, 43.20% belong to the &quot;average group&quot; and 40.90% fall into the &quot;unhappiness group&quot;. Correspondence analysis between internet addiction groups and happiness status suggested a significant and justifiable relationship between the two variables. Consequently, taking the findings of this study and of the limited research addressing different concepts of positive psychology such as internet addiction and happiness (e.g., satisfaction of needs, psychological strength etc.) together, these research findings are thought to contribute to the literature.

The purpose of this study is to determine the levels of high school mathematics teachers in achieving mathematics instruction via computer algebra systems and the reflections of these practices in the classroom. Three high school mathematics teachers employed at different types of school participated in the study. In the beginning of this qualitative analysis, the researchers provided the teachers with in-service training titled Computer-Assisted Mathematics Instruction Workshop regarding the integration of the Mathematica software which is a computer algebra system in learning-teaching environments. The participating teachers then conducted computer-assisted mathematics instruction activities in their classroom via the Mathematica software regarding the graphs of quadratic equations (parabola). Semi-structured interview and observation forms were used as data collection tools in the study. The data were analyzed using the descriptive analysis method. As a result of evaluation, it was found that before the Computer-Assisted Mathematics Instruction Workshop, the participants either never implemented technology integration or implemented it on the elementary level which is replacement. After the workshop, it was observed that the teachers achieved the technology integration in classroom implementations on the level of transformation and the top level of amplification and showed improvements in this matter. In the observations made after the workshop, it was seen that the teachers generally employed a student-oriented education approach and encouraged students to facilitate their own learning and make their own inferences utilizing computers and worksheets. It was observed that this situation led to changes in classroom routines and contributed to students' acquisition of deeper comprehension by their own efforts. Additionally, it was understood that the students or the teachers did not have any difficulty in using the computer-assisted mathematics instruction materials prepared in Mathematica.

In Turkey, nearly 400.000 higher education students have left university education in the last 3 years. This figure is an indication of a negative situation. Turkey is in the first place in terms of school dropout rates within the European Higher Education Area (EHEA). After completing primary and secondary education and passing the necessary exams, high figures belonging to students who are placed in a higher education program but who terminate their education on various occasions must be justified. The research was carried out between March 2016 and June 2017 in order to create a projection about reasons for the school dropout with the participation of Kirklareli University Babaeski Vocational College students who requested the &quot;registration clearance&quot;. According to research results, students usually ask for registration clearance for financial reasons. The research findings are important in terms of determining the causes of school dropouts at higher education level in Turkey and suggesting solution proposals. In order to prevent school dropouts at the higher education level, especially at vocational colleges, there is a need to establish an effective system for students, instructors and administrators.

The use of Augmented Reality Technologies, which has been developed in order to enrich the environment of education and training and provide permanent learning, has been increasing day by day. In this sense, it is important to analyze the use of augmented applications in education and training environments. In this study, we have aimed to determine students' academic success levels and their satisfactions through the use of augmented applications in Ottoman Turkish reading which students have difficulties in learning. For this purpose, an experimental study has been conducted with 60 students, 30 from experimental and 30 from control group, studying in the department of Turkish studies in the faculty of Education of Agri Ibrahim Çeçen University. The experimental and control groups have been chosen at random. The study has lasted totally 4 weeks: 1 week is pilot week and another 3 weeks are application weeks. The academic success test that has been prepared to assess students' academic success, prepared by experts and covered 7 weeks, has been applied as the pre-test in the beginning and final test at the end of the process. Additionally, a semi-structured interview has been carried out with randomly chosen students from the experimental group. The views of students about the use of augmented reality in Ottoman Turkish readings have been taken into consideration and the level of their satisfaction has been determined. After analysis of the obtained data, it has been understood that there is a meaningful difference between the average academic success grades of the experimental and control groups. The analyses of the findings obtained by the semi-structured interview are still continuing. According to the first findings, it has been observed that the use of augmented reality in education and training environment has positive contributions to student success and satisfaction.
