Ongoing Research Projects
Probability Concept Inventory for Pre-service Mathematics Teachers
Starting Date:
July, 2022
Expires: July, 2024
Sponsor: BAP- Start-up Project
Team: Project Investigator: Kemal AKOĞLU, Advisor: Sibel KAZAK (METU), Project Assistant: Selen ÇAYLI
Description: The aims of this project as follows:
• to determine pre-service mathematics teachers' knowledge and understanding of probability concepts
• to observe their readiness for teaching probability
• to improve their probability teaching skills by using the framework of statistics teaching through data research and digital simulations.
Science e-communication project
Starting Date:
July, 2022
Expires: July, 2024
Sponsor: BAP- Start-up Project
Team: Principal Investigator: Gaye Defne CEYHAN, Project Assistant: Dilara KARA ZORLUOĞLU
Description: The aims of this project as follows:
• to investigate the effects of these meetings on students' interests and attitudes towards STEM fields,
• to explore the similarities and differences between the views of stakeholders (i.e. students, teachers, and scientists) about the attainment of science communication experience
• to examine the number, focus, and quality of student questions before and during these meetings.
Using multimodal data from immersive Virtual Reality (VR) environments for investigating perception and self-regulated learning
Starting Date:
September, 2021
Expires: August, 2022
Sponsor: BAP - Multidisciplinary Project
Team: Engin Ader (PI-yürütücü), Emre Uğur (researcher-araştırmacı), İnci Ayhan (researcher-araştırmacı)
Description: Our general aims in this project are:
❏ to set up a multidisciplinary Virtual Reality Laboratory at Boğaziçi
University.
❏ to conduct basic research on visuo-motor coordination, avatar
representation, body ownership and body-schema in order to have
a better understanding of the brain in action.
❏ to investigate the ways in which multimodal data can be used for
studying self-regulated learning and explore new ways in which we
can apply VR technologies into the field of education in order to
improve preservice teachers’ (and students’) learning.
