The purpose of the study is to explore how pre-service teachers perceive buoyancy force affecting an object in a liquid and identify their misunderstandings and misconceptions. Pre-service teachers were interviewed to reveal their understandings of an object' floating, suspending and sinking in a liquid. In addition, they were asked about how an object--given its features--moved when it is provided with an external force and when it is released. The so-called circumstances were questioned in a different planet context. For this aim, focused group interview method was used. Work-group of the research was formed with senior year physics teaching department students and senior year science teaching department students studying at two different university in Turkey. Seven focused groups were formed and video recorded during the interval. Each focused group comprised of six pre-service teachers. It was found out pre-service teachers have common misunderstanding and misconceptions. In this study, unlike similar studies, it was determined that pre-service teachers had misunderstandings about the movement that a floating object would take after it was sunk and released. In addition, it has been determined that pre-service teachers have some misunderstandings when the events related to the buoyancy force are repeated on a planet where the gravitational acceleration is different. At the end of the study, suggestions were made to eliminate these conceptual misunderstandings.

The intense use of visual communication tools in today's knowledge and communication era does not mean that visual messages are correctly perceived and communication is appropriately structured. Similarly, it is just an assumption that people from younger generations, who are believed to have high levels of visual literacy, properly perceive the visuals they are exposed to. This study aims to determine whether there is a correlation between university students' visual literacy levels and their skills for comprehending, interpreting, and evaluating visuals as well as between their visual literacy perceptions of themselves and their inclination to visuals and/or text on a web page they visit. More specifically, the study examines whether university students who perceive themselves as individuals with high levels of visual literacy are really equipped with these skills and whether they incline to visuals first or not when they access a web page. In the first phase of the study, which uses a relational survey model, 478 university students were determined as subjects with the stratified sampling method. The second phase was conducted with seven students determined from among the initial sample with the purposeful sampling method. The data for the study was collected with the Visual Literacy Scale developed for university students by Aslan and Nalinci (2014), the Scale for Inclination to Visuals and/or Text on a Web Page, and the Performance Test for Comprehending, Interpreting and Evaluating Visuals. For statistical analysis of the study, normality analysis, exploratory factor analysis and independent groups t-test were used. The findings of the study showed that university students cannot always correctly interpret visuals although they perceive themselves as visually literate individuals. The study also revealed that university students with high levels of visual literacy perception do not recognize visuals first on a web page; however, as their visual literacy levels decrease, they preferably incline to the use of text together with visuals on a web page.

Both qualitative and quantitative research designs were used in this study. Study used A questionnaire containing 20 items: 10 items represented traditional assessment and the other 10 represented authentic assessments has been used in this study. The survey sample used in this study consisted of 157 students and 52 educators. In addition, 10 educators were interviewed for the qualitative research part and 25 graduate students as an experimental sample. The main findings of this study indicated that educators preferred using both traditional testing tools and the preference towards traditional and authentic tools depended on academic qualification. This implies the importance of conducting institution in-service courses for educators, which may depend not only on the nature of the training but also on the academic qualifications of the participants. Furthermore, it is important to note that while many educators reported their preference in utilizing novel evaluation methods, a small proportion of them did not deem authentic assessment as their preferred way of assessing students' performance. This could partly be the result of adopting a traditional curriculum instead. various outcomes of this study can lead educators to design a best model of assessment using both traditional and authentic assessment types. As for students, many advantages of using authentic assessment will help them enhance their academic writing and productivity skills.

Turner and Sheckles (2015) explain that communication centers are centered on campus and impact students' relationships with career and community opportunities (p. xii). This point is apparent in the centers' relationships with departments in addition to the career-development of student communicators. This article situates the communication center at the intersection of experiences developed through an intensive, embedded collaborative effort to enhance the communication-design process and experience for students. The unit activity described in this article challenged students to engage a full communication-design process through a collaborative partnership between the class and the communication center that tasked students to create their online, professional presence through an ePortfolio. The experience incorporated a series of workshops designed to provide students with the background and planning skills that contribute to the design of an effective professional online persona. Guided by the previous research of Carpenter, Apostel, &amp; Hyndman (2012) as they examined the process of embedding workshops for ePortfolio design in communication-intensive courses, this unit activity focuses on enhancing the visual, written, and oral communication skills of students in the Communication, Leadership, and Change course at a regional comprehensive university.
