Yayın A study on customer perceptions and attitudes towards digital coupons(İzmir Katip Çelebi Üniversitesi, 2021-12-15) Akman, Yasemin; Türkmen, Hediye GamzeDigital coupons, generally considered as a marketing strategy to increase sales and customer loyalty, are important elements in the observation of customer attitudes and perceptions. The main question in the literature is whether these coupons should be redeemed or not, and their effectiveness is discussed depending on their use. However, even if digital coupons are not redeemed after they are acquired in online environments, the way they are obtained or perceived can provide marketers with information about customer attitudes and behaviors. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of digital coupons in digital business models based on consumers' perceptions and attitudes. Attitudes towards digital discount coupons were examined using 10 different dimensions and how these dimensions were influenced by various variables was questioned. The study surveyed 300 participants. As a result of the analysis, it was revealed that the impact of digital coupons on online purchase behavior should be considered from a holistic perspective. Accordingly, other benefits that coupons create for sellers should not be overlooked in addition to coupon redemption.Yayın Determinants of quality perception of students in online learning in higher education(Taylor and Francis, 2022-12-30) Türkmen, Hediye Gamze[No abstract available]Yayın God, man, and nature: life for reason and the reason behind the universe - a panentheistic approach to life of pi(De Gruyter, 2021-11-08) Edman, Timuçin Buğra; Gözen, HacerThis article intends to lay out a comparative study of Karma philosophy and literature scrutinizing Yann Martel's novel Life of Pi through a panentheistic approach. Because Karma is one of the predominant philosophies in the novel and permeates the general atmosphere, this article intends to scrutinize Yann Martel's novel Life of Pi through a panentheistic approach. Although karma is a very complex issue, since anyone committing evil acts can claim to be a mere agent of karma delivering punishment to others for sins they committed in their past lives, it is true that according to karma, our actions have consequences which affect the entirety of our lives, and this can also be seen as free will. Yet while this approach tends to focus on the action and reaction mechanisms of life, the flow of life in the universe should still be carefully contemplated, since if we believe the first story, Pi's survival not only depends on his choices, but also on the opportunities that the universe offers him. In that sense, if we are to accept God as the soul of the universe, then the universal spirit must be omnipresent and omnipotent while also capable of transforming into anything in terms of s panentheistic approach. Thus God, being greater than the universe, is the ultimate force that balances everything, and is also the biggest karma controller. For this reason, this article analyzes Life of Pi from both inductive and deductive slants to demonstrate that all roads lead to God, the omniscient.Yayın VII: The ethics of science and the invisible man through social and cultural scripts and transactional analysis(Peter Lang AG, 2021-06-03) Edman, Timuçin Buğra; Gözen, Hacer; Kasimi, YusufJust as the first entrance of 'the stranger' into Iping ignited the wick of a series of enigmatic events in The Invisible Man, so indeed does H.G. Wells' extraordinary dream world continue to captivate millions. While the limits of science today can be demarcated only through the human imagination, it was not all that different back in 1897, when this science fiction novel was first published. Wells' novel has in fact revived a subject that had been widely discussed in previous centuries which does perhaps fall under the shadow of alchemy. Much of what we know today that is possible through technology allegedly seemed to be conceivable primarily through alchemy or black magic before the positive leap forward in the sciences. Nevertheless, philosophers such as Sir Thomas More and Sir Francis Bacon may have raised the first serious concerns about science and ethics. The intersection of ethics and science is the core contact point, whereby the purpose and limits of science create a mutual entity. Especially recently, the ethics of science has been a topic of discussion following serious trepidations. The 'abode' of science in human life is undoubtedly undeniable. However, when massacres such as Hiroshima and Nagasaki are commemorated, it becomes necessary to reinvigorate the limits of science. As a matter of fact, "during the past decade, scientists, laypeople, and politicians have become increasingly aware of the importance of ethics in scientific research. Several trends have contributed to these growing concerns" (Resnik, 2005, p. 1). In that sense, this article purports to vigilantly explore the inevitable ramifications of science on man through the science fiction novel The Invisible Man and the ethics of science. This study will also explore how psychology structures moral values or ethics in science, and how psychological derivations constitute humans' actions through the theory of Transactional Analysis by Berne, the theory of Spiral Dynamics by Graves, and the Drama Triangle theory by Karpman, through the lens of the science fiction novel The Invisible Man.Yayın Orators in the realm of pandemonium playing God(Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi, 2019-10-22) Edman, Timuçin Buğra; Gözen, HacerOnce upon a time Sigmund Freud proclaimed that technology was the means by which to push humans beyond the edge of their biological limits, transforming them into ‘a kind of prosthetic’ God. By the time humans began to dominate the world, many animal species had already disappeared because of man’s hunger. This was the first indicator that humans were prone to determine the fate of other species. The wars they fought, massacres they ordered, and extinctions they caused. The center of the world was not large enough, while the center of the universe was occupied by God. Dante Alighieri imagined the planets through their proximity to the Sun as our juxtaposition to God. For humankind, the inability to control themselves was disturbing enough. Zamiatin, in his We, created a dystopian world at the edge of Armageddon in which people become the subjects of a long-lasting project that portrays religions as myths. The aim of this study is to display the imaginable cost of playing God through science, which is presumably designed to make life easier, not to replace God.Yayın Impact of digital innovation on women’s eentrepreneurship: research in Kirklareli province(Eğitim Yayınevi, 2022) Akman, Yasemin; Türkmen, Hediye Gamze; Sevim, Şerafettin[No abstract available]Yayın Moving forward with an eye on the past: a historical perspective of teacher research(IGI Global, 2017) Bush, Jerome CharlesTeacher research has become a well-known term in professional development circles, yet it is still often misunderstood. This chapter seeks to facilitate those who are interested in teacher research by providing a historical perspective. Understanding the development of teacher research over that past century will allow interested parties to move forward with greater insight of the potential benefits and drawbacks inherent in teacher research. Such an analysis may lead to increased success for teacher research projects as the twenty-first century unfolds. Although teacher research can be a challenging form of professional development, it has incredible transformative potential. It has the potential to enhance the entire profession of teaching as well as the knowledge, skills and abilities of individual teachers. A call is made for teachers and academics to move forward by forming an alliance to explore new models and methods of teacher research.Yayın Exploring the relationship between annotation use of EFL learners and their learning styles(Boğaziçi Üniversitesi, 2015-09-02) Şakar, AsımThis study explores the relationship between (perceptual and cognitive) learning styles and the use of hypermedia annotations by intermediate EFL learners while reading a hypermedia text. The participants were 44 EFL adult learners studying English for academic purposes. Data were collected through a software tracking tool, a learning styles survey and interviews. Results did not indicate a significant relationship, suggesting that learners with different learning styles had similar patterns in using hypermedia annotations, which in turn suggests that hypermedia environments can accommodate for various learning styles.Yayın The recurrence of an Indian dream, Magic Seeds(Cyprus International University, 2021) Edman, Timuçin Buğra; Boynukara, Hasan; Gözen, HacerMagic Seeds is a work of fiction, but it also serves as a reflection of the real world, the history of India, where value judgments in a society return to their starting point only by reforming in accordance with the reconstruction of a given society. Willie, who is in search of identity and a home, finds the remedy in joining the guerrilla order. However, here, he fights through the shadow of the past, which he can never escape. The shadow of the past is the hierarchy itself, and this article explores the never-ending transformation of hierarchy, anarchism, and the search for order through the novel Magic Seeds. This article is a comparative study of the novel Magic Seeds, and history, the Naxalite movement in India from the 1960s until the early 2000s. Through the historical revolutionary Naxalite movement and a political association of the Marxist–Leninist Communist Party of India in West Bengal in 1960s, this study also reveals why an anarchic movement apparently returns to its starting point, and legs behind the decolonization or reconstruction of a society due to the deep-rooted and pre-structured hierarchy in a society by considering the terms humanization, dehumanization, hierarchy, cast system, anarchism, transformation and reconstruction.Yayın Nâmık Kemal and his utopian dream about freedom(English Language and Literature Association of Korea, 2021) Edman, Timuçin Buğra; Gözen, HacerBorn in 1840, Nâmık Kemal left his mark on Turkish and world literature. He was one of the pioneers of the Ottoman Reform era. Due to Nâmık Kemal's pioneering endeavors and his writings that purported to enlighten the society and expostulate on the political descension occurring during his time under the rule of Abdulaziz, the 32nd Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, Kemal was twice sent into exile. During these exiles, he deepened his knowledge and academic background further, explored new worlds, and wrote Dream. This study deduces how, in contrast to its apparent meaning, Nâmık Kemal's choice of title for his “utopia” was meant to suggest a sarcastic condition, indeed one that he might have intentionally created while he was ostracized in Famagusta, Cyprus. Nâmık Kemal's utopia, Dream, consists of a “dream” that he claims to have had while in a mansion overlooking Bosphorus in Istanbul. Dream, in an ironic way, is actually Nâmık Kemal's collection of thoughts designed to agitate the Ottoman nation. This study subsumes Dream as a euchronia or a homotopical utopia that portrays a better society created in the same place in Istanbul and the Ottoman Empire. The study also reveals how Nâmık Kemal posited the social and local environments in Dream with the intent to influence future political, cultural, and social connotations and reasoning in his contemporary world. Through a comparative study of history and literature, this essay thus propounds how Nâmık Kemal actually intended to “shake” the people to awaken them from their long-lasting irresponsible sleep.
