    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[A Study of Differences in Learning Orientations of EFL Students]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[This study reports on an investigation into differences in learning orientations of EFL  students at Atatürk University located in Erzurum, Turkey, using Vermunt’s (1977) Inventory of  Learning Styles (ILS). The Inventory of Learning Styles (ILS) is an instrument aimed at measuring  several components of student learning, namely, cognitive processing strategies, metacognitive  regulation strategies, conceptions of learning, and learning orientations. This study focuses on  determining patterns in student learning in only one learning style category: learning orientations.  For statistical analyses, Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests were used. No significant  differences were found with regards to department. Some significant differences were present with  respect to gender and class level. ]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Key words: First Person Singular Pronouns, Malay Child Language  ABSTRACT  This study had been carried out in order to investigate the first person singular pronouns used by children in Malay. In this language, the most prominent first person singular pronouns are &quot;saya&quot; and &quot;aku&quot;. However, for kids, the usage of these pronouns sometimes has been substituted by other pronouns. This research used a comedy drama entitled &quot;Lontong&quot; as a text to seek for the findings. The results showed that besides &quot;saya&quot; and &quot;aku&quot;, children also use &quot;kita&quot; as well as their own names as the first person singular pronouns. In terms of politeness, using names is considered as the most humble way, followed by &quot;kita&quot; and &quot;saya&quot;. Hence, using &quot;aku&quot; is deemed as impolite. Nevertheless, it is not unusual to see &quot;aku&quot; used by kids among their close friends.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[A Study of the Frequency of Language Related Episodes (LREs) in Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Dyadic Interaction and its Comparative Role in Improving EFL Learners’ Writing Ability]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The study compared the relative frequency of the Language Related Episodes (LREs) in the pair talk data of homogenous and heterogeneous pairs of English learners and investigated the effect of two types of dyadic interaction on the learners’ writing ability. Ninety-eight female students of TEFL participated in the study. The participants’ English language proficiency was initially tested by First Certificate English (FCE) test the results of which were the basis for designing two groups of pairs. In the heterogeneous group, 15 participants who had low scores were paired with partners who had high scores in the test while in the homogeneous group, 15 participants were paired with partners who had similar English proficiency test scores. The pairs in both groups were assigned to perform six oral pair works including picture description and table description tasks. The transcribed pair-talks were analyzed for the frequency of the LREs. The Independent-groups t-test analysis showed a significantly higher occurrence of LREs in the heterogeneous pairs. Furthermore, the participants’ writing scores in the writing section of the FCE test, as the pretest, were compared with their writing scores in another version of FCE test considered as the posttest. The Paired samples t-test and the Univaiate Analysis of Variance analyses showed significant increases from pretest to posttest for both groups but no significant difference between the two groups’ gains.  The findings of the study were explained in reference to Vygotsky’s notion of ZPD within the Socio-cultural theory. The study had several pedagogical implications and suggestions for further research.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Micropropagation is as a tool for sustainable utilization and allows the  production of a large number of virus-free clones within a short period. Also,  micropropagationis fundamental for the conservation of genetic resources. The  presentstudy was carried out to establish protocols for the invitropropagation of Jujube  (Ziziphusspp)and contribute to the conservation of plant geneticresources.In the study,  shoot tips of two selected jujube genotypes (20-C-10 and 20-C-22) were used as a material.  MS (Murashige and Skoog) medium supplemented with both TDZ (thidiazuron) and BAP  (benzylaminopurine) as a cytokinin was used for micropropagation of jujube genotypes.  The highest percentage of explants forming shoots (93.3 %) and the highest number of  shoot per explants (5.7) was obtained on the MS medium containing 0.1 mg/l TDZ+0.5  mg/l BAP+0.1 mg/l IBA (indolebutyric acid)+0.3 mg/l GA3(gibberellic acid) in 20-C-10  jujube genotype. The highest rooting percentages of 20-C-10 and 20-C-22 jujube  genotypes (83.3 % and 80.0 %, respectively) were obtained on half-strength MS medium  supplemented with 2.0 mg/l IBA.

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Keywords: jujube, micropropagation, thidiazuron, benzylaminopurine, in vitro rooting.  ABSTRACT  Micropropagation is a very important propagation technique for fruit trees based on especially obtaining virus free sapling. In the present study, shoot tips of two selected jujube genotypes (20-Ç-10 and 20-Ç-22) were used as a material. The effects of different growth regulator combinations, carbon sources (sucrose, glucose and fructose) and silver nitrate concentrations on in vitro propagation of jujube were investigated. Shoot formation was observed on the medium containing TDZ alone as a cytokinin, but shoots were very short and unhealthy. In addition that, when the medium supplemented with BAP alone was used, new shoot regeneration from explants was not observed. Therefore, MS medium supplemented with both TDZ and BAP as a cytokinin was used for in vitro micropropagation of jujube genotypes. The highest percentage of explants forming shoots (93.3 %) and the highest number of shoots per explant (5.7) were obtained on the MS medium containing 0.1 mg/l TDZ+0.5 mg/l BAP+0.1 mg/l IBA+0.3 mg/l GA3 in 20-Ç-10 jujube genotype. Different amounts of carbon source and silver nitrate did not increase the percentage of explant forming shoots and the number of shoots per explants in the both genotypes compared to control treatment. The highest rooting percentages of 20-Ç-10 and 20-Ç-22 jujube genotypes (83.3 % and 80.0 %, respectively) were obtained on half-strength MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/l IBA.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[This study is conducted in order to investigate the generic awareness of reading strategy use of  students and state the types of reading strategies used by them while performing a reading task. The  students responded to a 45-item scale that included three categories of reading strategies; before, during and  after. The findings obtained in this study indicated that the overall usage-level of the designated reading  strategies were at a medium frequency-level; therefore, it revealed that the students use the designated  strategies but not necessarily enough. On the other hand, the overall frequency of before-reading strategy  use was found to be highest among three categories, so it indicated that the students are generally conscious  of their comprehension process and they are planned before performing a reading task.

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[A Suggestion for Forestry: Assigning Idle Public Lands to Private Sector by Projecting  and Provisioning]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Land is a widespread natural resource and commonly used by humans. It is commonly used  distributed for agriculture, forestry, urbanization, resting, transportation and settling. Land is  not a renewable resource and is under the threat of erosion, polluting and salinization because  of agricultural irrigations. In consequence of increasing population and industrialization  wetlands, agricultural lands and forests are used for settlement and industrial areas.  Maximizing utility of resources is an essential issue for environmental economics. Thus  maximizing utility of land uses is an essential issue for land using strategies. When viewed  from this aspect it is obvious that land areas of a country are shared by public (state) and  private sectors. In public areas forest areas have an important share.There are enormous  amount of areas which are owned by state but they are waiting idle. In this paper after  analyzing present administrations we will make a suggestion. We will focus on assigning  these idle areas to private sector for forestry use. It is hoped that this assignment will  contribute the problems of unemployment, income, cleaning the atmosphere, preventing  erosion and input for industrial production. Despite the subsidies, private foresting is  inadequate. We will suggest publicizing investors by projecting the proper lands, subsidizing  and presenting economic potentials of these areas.]]></dcterms:abstract>
