During the early stages of childhood, educators play a pivotal role as influential figures in a child’s life. The dynamic between teacher and child holds the potential to either foster or jeopardize the child’s developmental trajectory. The present study investigated the predictive role of teacher-child relationships in behavior problems for Turkish children. A predictive correlation design was used in this study. Eight preschool teachers rated the quality of their relationships with 138 children aged 4–6 years and their externalizing and internalizing problem behaviors. Findings revealed that the quality of the teacher-child relationships was a significant predictor of both externalizing and internalizing problems. Closeness in teacher-child relationships is associated with a decrease in children’s externalizing and internalizing behavior problems. Conflicts in teacher-child relationships, in contrast, have been linked to increased problem behaviors exhibited by children. Nota.....

This study aims to determine the learning outcomes of children in educational settings by using an AR (Augmented Reality) app for animals in classroom activities. To achieve this, the study used sequential exploratory research design, applied in both quantitative and qualitative research. The participants in the study are 2 teachers and 37 children working in the kindergarten affiliated to the Ministry of National Education in the central district of Kilis Province in the 2019-2020 academic year. The augmented reality app was used in one group (n=18) of children, and not in the other group (n=19). The children were given an animal recognition test prepared by the researchers before the app was used and again afterward in an attempt to discover how the AR app affected learning. The study determined that while animal recognition increased in both the AR and non-AR groups, the children in the group where the AR app was used recognized more animals than the other group. As a result of the .....

This study aims to develop a Project-Based Learning E-Module by utilizing the Arduino for the topic of impulse and examine its validity and usability among trainee physics teachers. ADDIE model was followed in the development of the PjBL e-module where the problem was analysed, the e-module was designed, and then developed using Canva. Constructivism learning theory, Inquiry-Based learning, Experiential Learning Theory and Cognitive Load Theory was implemented into the e-module to make the e-module meet the learning style of 21st-century learning. After that, the e-module then goes to implementation phase before finally getting its usability evaluated. The PjBL e-module has been read and evaluated by 56 Semester 7 physics students selected via convenience sampling. The mean value of the usability obtained is 3.67, which proves that the e-module has achieved a high usability level among trainee physics teachers. The PjBL e-module surely will help trainee physics teachers to t.....

This study aimed to reveal the relationship between the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th-grade science course outcomes and the first season of the cartoon "Luna's Science World". The document analysis method was used in the study, which was designed with a qualitative research model. The study group of research consisted of fifty cartoons in the first season of Luna's Science World. The content analysis method was used in the analysis of the data. As a result of the research, it was determined that except for three parts, all the topics covered in the cartoon were related to the science course outcomes. Additionally, it was seen that each of the episodes could be directly related to the outcomes of the Science course. This shows that almost all levels can benefit from the educational feature of this cartoon. From this point of view, as an educational cartoon “Luna’s Science World” can be associated with related disciplines and used actively in learning environments, and their effe.....
