{"title":"Navigating the Environmental Education and Climate Change Curriculum in Türki̇ye through the Prism of Climate Change Literate Citizenship","authors":"Birgül ÇAKIR YILDIRIM, Meltem IRMAK, Büşra YÜKSEL TUNCAY","doi":"10.30900/kafkasegt.1346835","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.30900/kafkasegt.1346835","url":null,"abstract":"In the present study a theoretical framework (i.e., Climate Change Literate Citizenship) that combines climate change literacy and climate citizenship was developed first. Then, criteria that correspond to each of the components of the proposed theoretical framework were developed and used to analyze the learning objectives in the “Environmental Education and Climate Change” curriculum. Data analyses utilized in the study presented a snapshot of the descriptive landscape of the curriculum in terms of the distribution of the objectives within the curriculum. Manifest and latent analyses realized through MAXQDA 2022 software were used to illustrate world cloud and word trends and alignment of the curriculum objectives with respect to the criteria developed for the Climate Change Literate Citizenship framework. Findings showed that there was an uneven distribution of the learning objectives within the Climate Change Literate Citizenship framework. Most of the learning objectives aimed to support climate change literacy, where objectives pertaining to the promotion of climate citizenship were relatively less in number. A similar uneven distribution was observed within the components of climate change literacy (i.e., functional, cultural, critical) and climate citizenship (i.e., personally responsible, participatory, justice oriented) as well. That is, there was not any objectives related to the cultural component of climate change literacy; most of the objectives aimed to develop functional component followed by the critical component. Among the components of climate citizenship, personal responsibility component and participatory component were addressed equally but there was only one learning objective that is in line with justice-oriented climate citizenship. Thus, our findings as a whole suggest that the curriculum adopts a fragmented rather than a holistic approach to climate change education. Nonetheless, further studies are required to make more robust conclusions about the curriculum and its practice.","PeriodicalId":485666,"journal":{"name":"E- Kafkas eğitim araştırmaları dergisi","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135095900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"High School Administrators’ Views about Work-Private Life Balance","authors":"Sevim GÜLSEVEN TANER, Fatma USLU GÜLŞEN","doi":"10.30900/kafkasegt.1263983","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.30900/kafkasegt.1263983","url":null,"abstract":"Working life is as essential and indispensable as private life for people. Paying equal attention to work and private life is the way to balance these living spaces. Work-private life balance is essential both for the uninterrupted functioning of organizations and for the employees to continue their private life healthily. This study aims to reveal school administrators’ views on work- private life balance. Of qualitative research methods, a phenomenological research design was used to examine the subject in-depth, obtain rich findings, and understand the phenomenon better. The study participants comprised 50 school administrators, 19 females and 31 males, selected using purposeful and snowball sampling methods from 275 public high school administrators working in four central districts of Mersin in the 2021-2022 academic year. All the data were collected through face-to-face interviews and divided into codes, categories, and subcategories using content analysis. At the end of the analysis, the findings relating to five themes were created considering the literature. Although the work- private life balance was taken into account when asking questions to study participants, it was discovered that school administrators working in public high schools experienced a work- private life imbalance.","PeriodicalId":485666,"journal":{"name":"E- Kafkas eğitim araştırmaları dergisi","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135936098","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data collected by Google Form applications were examined by using descriptive analysis and difference tests . According to results of the research it is highlighted that there are some lack of security in the transportation (not fasting seat belts and traveling standing during driving, getting in straingers , inadequate information about first aid, etc.) in terms of the opinions of the school administrators, communication problems (having an argument with on-duty teachers, not being punctual service, conflict with parents, etc.). It is also observed that there is a considerable differences in the problems based upon transportation due to the fact that participants have the status and spend for a long time of appointment in managing,gaining experiences by working schools in mobile teaching and their schools have different locations.","PeriodicalId":485666,"journal":{"name":"E- Kafkas eğitim araştırmaları dergisi","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136026273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
