Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2The Mediating Role of Instructional Design and Video Length Between Grade Level and Pupil-Content Interaction in Instructional Mathematics Videos on Youtube(Springer, 2024) Demir, Ömer; Birgili, BengiThe use of instructional videos is rampant in education; however, their interaction is limited by weak instructional design. Gagne has never insisted on using his renowned 9 Events of Instruction slavishly in situations as a viable paradigm for utilization in video design. Connecting grade level, video length, and interaction, this study seeks to determine the relevance of Gagne's prescribed 9 event sequence in instructional mathematics videos. We scrutinized 50 instructional mathematics videos on YouTube geared towards middle school pupils ranging between 5th and 8th grades. We used quantitative media content analysis for video analysis. In data analysis, partial least squares were used. Bayesian estimation was also resorted to for cross checking. The data revealed that one-third of Gagne's instructional design steps were not always present: activating prior knowledge, eliciting performance, and finally providing feedback. A mediation analysis between grade level and video length revealed that 6 events fully mediated the association between the two. We also elicited the impact of these variables on affective and behavioral interactions in videos. This study assists in creating an idiosyncratic instructional design model, called Birgili's 8 steps for instructional video design, and in infusing this with a melange of four theories. In contrast with the status quo attesting that the literature abounds with scholarly works touting the shorter is the better mantra, the results substantiated that longer may be better in leveraging video interactions provided that the length is judiciously used to conform to instructional design principles.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Investigating the Relationship Between Volitional Strategies and Academic Achievement in a Flipped Learning Environment(Fac Teacher Education, 2019) Seggie, Fatma Nevra; Kiziltepe, Zeynep; Birgili, BengiThis study was conducted to determine whether there is a relationship between academic volitional strategies and academic achievement in a flipped learning environment. Academic achievement entails an environment where students exert self-discipline on classroom tasks. By using volitional strategies, learners can enhance engagement on academic tasks and complete assignments more efficiently. Undergraduate students enrolled in a teacher education programme at a higher education institution in Turkey participated in the research. Academic Volitional Strategies Inventory (AVSI), with alpha = .87 internal consistency, was applied to a group of students. The obtained data were explored through Pearson correlation. The results showed a statistically significant positive relationship between AVSI scores and academic achievements (r =.39, p=<.05). Hence, volitional skills and academic achievements act in concert in a teacher education programme.Conference Object Academicians as Teachers: Nurturing Teaching Experience(2016) Tunç-Pekkan, Zelha; Taylan, Rukiye Didem; Birgili, Bengi; Aydın, Utkun; Özcan, MustafaFour academicians volunteered to teach 5th grade mathematics for one year in a Turkish public school. Academicians met every week for 40 weeks where they discussed what to teach, how to teach and reflected on implementation of their shared planning. Videotapes of first six Regular Meetings and six weeks of Research Meetings were analyzed. The focus of qualitative analyses was on how the knowledge of teaching was constructed differently in those two settings. References evidencing academician teachers’ knowledge of students, instructional strategies and assessment were found to occur more frequently during the Research Meetings compared to Regular Meetings. Academicians discussed more frequently what questions to ask in the classroom and exchanged comments about students’ thinking with more evidence. Using learning theories and framing planning and reflection discussions with a focus on research appeared to be a productive way of nurturing teaching experiences of academicians as teachers.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Impacts of a University-School Partnership on Middle School Students' Fractional Knowledge: a Quasiexperimental Study(Taylor & Francis, 2018) Tunç-Pekka, Zelha; Özcan, Mustafa; Birgili, Bengi; Taylan, Rukiye Didem; Aydın, UtkunIn this quasiexperimental study, the authors investigated the effects of university within school partnership model, within which faculty members acted as teacher-researchers to improve fractional knowledge among middle school (Grades 5–8) students. Students in nine Grade 6 mathematics classes from two public middle schools in Turkey were assigned to two conditions: University within school model instruction and traditional instruction. Pre- and posttest data showed that the students exposed to instruction through the university within school partnership model significantly outperformed their traditional instruction peers on the fractions test. Results indicated that students made significant gains in fractional knowledge in the experimental classrooms and in different subgroup populations. It was suggested that a substantial amount of mathematical infusion through partnership could have a positive impact on middle school students' fractional knowledge. The educational implications of the study were also discussed.Conference Object Investigating Fifth-Grade Students’ Conceptions of Fractions on the Number Line(NCTM Research ConferenceAt: San Francisco, 2016) Taylan, Rukiye Didem; Tunc-Pekkan, Zelha; Aydın, Utkun; Birgili, Bengi; Özcan, MustafaIn this study, clinical interviews focusing on students’ understanding of fractions as numbers on the number line were conducted with six fifth-grade students both before and after an intervention designed by teacher-researchers. Although in general students demonstrated improved understanding of fraction concepts even in situations requiring reversible thinking, difficulties in finding benchmarks on the number line and a limited awareness of density of fractions on the number line persisted among students.Article Citation - Scopus: 3Assessing Mathematical Higher-Order Thinking Skills: an Analysis of Turkish University Entrance Examinations(Routledge, 2023) Aydın, Utkun; Birgili, BengiInternationally, mathematics education reform has been directed toward characterizing educational goals that go beyond topic/content/skill descriptions and develop students’ problem solving. The Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy and MATH (Mathematical Assessment Task Hierarchy) Taxonomy characterize such goals. University entrance examinations have been seen as one way of accomplishing these goals and influence learning, teaching, and assessment in mathematics. The present study analyzed mathematics items (N = 1077) in Turkish university entrance examinations in 1998-2013 and objectives (N = 621) in mathematics curricula in 2005, 2011, and 2013 to determine the extent to which they represent the dimensions/categories of these taxonomies and the degree to which items are aligned with objectives in terms of reflecting the dimensions/categories of these taxonomies. The findings reveal that the items demand, to a large extent, automated computational skills; this is also evident in the relevant mathematics curricula. Implications for practice are discussed and could play a role in reforming assessment. © 2023 The Author(s).

Benefitting from instructional videos in learning processes empowers students’ academic outcomes. In spite of this, educators have no consensus on optimal video length. There is a need to cease speculations on optimal video length since most of them have been relying only on context-based tips or best practices. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to delve into the optimal video length discussion through the lens of perceived learning and flow experience. We employed repeated measure experimental design with randomization of treatment order for each participant. Twenty-eight university students from two big cities in Türkiye volunteered to participate in the study. Short, medium, and long videos were compared via Friedman test. Results of this study substantiated instructional video length does not seem to affect students’ perceived learning and their overall flow experience. However, they tend to concentrate and focus better on short videos. We call for an end to optimal video length discussion for videos shorter than 10 minutes, especially in terms of learning. The implications relying on the findings were discussed in terms of differences between “thinking to be in flow” and “being actually in flow.” The recommendations are given in detail in the full text.Article Teaching Method Preferences of Teachers: the Cooperative Teaching Method(James Nicholas Publishers, 2016) Birgili, Bengi; Kızıltepe, Zeynep; Seggie, Fatma NevraTeachers’ preferred teaching methods are of the utmost importance. The aim of this qualitative study is to examine 47 primary and secondary-school teachers’ (1) teaching method preferences, (2) reasons for group work preferences, and (3) implementation paths for the methods they use. Results show that (1) teachers mostly prefer direct instruction; group work is the second preference; (2) permanent learning, physical conditions, and comprehensive programs are the result of the preference; (3) while teachers are implementing the cooperative method, they implement activities and projects at all levels, form the groups themselves based on students’ qualifications, and see the highest success in 4th, 6th, and 11th grades.Conference Object Okulda Üniversite Modeli-temelli Öğretimin 5. Sınıf Öğrencilerinin Kesir Bilgisini Geliştirme Üzerine Etkisi(2016) Aydın, Utkun; Tunç-Pekkan, Zelha; Rukiye Didem, Taylan; Birgili, Bengi; Özcan, MustafaBu çalışmanın amacı, üniversite-okul işbirliği kapsamında uygulanan, öğretim üyelerinin öğretmenaraştırmacı olarak rol aldığı, Okulda Üniversite Modeli temelli öğretimin 5. sınıf öğrencilerinin kesir bilgisinin geliştirilmesi üzerine etkisini araştırmaktır.
