    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[This paper describes a developed Multilingual Media Monitoring System (MMMS)  software and reports how it may be utilized to effectively facilitate PR facilities at an academic  institution in Balkans.  There are many international charity projects of Turkey in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH).  These institutes comprise the academics and businessmen both from Turkey and Bosnia. Due to  major number of the stakeholders and students from Turkey and Bosnia as well as other  different countries, and the mission of such an institution to become an international Balkan  institution requires the establishment to perform PR facilities in Balkans effectively in a multinational  and multilingual manner. Therefore, a software system called Multilingual Media  Monitoring System (MMMS) was developed by the authors herein to manage the PR facilities  more effectively by easing the collection, search and evaluation of the news in Balkan region  and Turkey. The paper describes the system in detail.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The most important factor in career planning of a person is to direct him depending  upon his features. The best way of choosing career is to compare the wishes of a person with the  requirements of that career so that he can decide the best one. Particularly, those who think to have  a university education for their careers come across difficulties while deciding on their career path  on account of the fact that the global world can offer various opportunities for education in a great  many places. The student must choose by taking into account some criteria. As an example,  several factors play a crucial role in this process such as the academic success of the university, the  working opportunities provided, the distance of the university to the hometown of the student, the  economic status of that city, the facilities of accommodation. Considering all these factors, the  student should give an optimal decision. In this context, the common decision including both the  personal different opinions and convincing for all is strongly needed. AHP (Analytic Hierarchy  Process) has gained a very big momentum at these kind of situations.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Regional development agencies,when looked at their historical.development  started to be constructed after the World Economic Crisis of 1929. Especially due to the  economic and social effects of the Second World War and interregional imbalances  ,regional development agencies around the world became prominent. Countries have  began to understand that to get rid of the effects of the Economic crisis or to minimize  them , emphasizing the potentialities of the region themselves are so important that they  could compete with the world. Regional development agencies play the most important  role in the development of the region, considering the properties of each region.  Globalization has to adapt itself to the recent circumstances in order for all the unıts in  economy to be competitive. At the same time,we must benefit from the potentials of all  the regions to improve the economic conditions of the countries. Efficient use of  resources must be provided by preparing crisis programmes suitable to the region and  presenting them to the government to take which has been an effective precautions in  the crisis times. Regional imbalance problem has been an agenda in Turkey for years and  planned development started in the 1960s,thereby supporting the regional development  with the help of 5- year development programmes. In order for Turkey to increase the  competition power of the regions and to accelerate development , ıt has to give primary  importance to regional development and the agencies which play an important role in  it.In this study, the primary focus is to investigate the role and effects of development  agencies especially in the face of economic crises.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Turkey has benefited from the pre-accession financial aids of the EU to meet the  criteria for EU membership. As from 2007, all the EU assistance to candidate and potential  candidate countries has been brought under a single heading IPA. All components of the IPA  are open to Turkey as a candidate country. According to database of the Central Finance and  Contracts Unit (CFCU), totally 2 312 projects were carried out by various bodies in Turkey.  About €286 million were distributed to governmental and non-governmental organizations,  SMEs via projects. Literature review shows that information about EU funded projects in  Turkey is limited. Therefore, this study aims at analyzing EU funds towards Turkey in terms  of programme, organizations, performance ranks, expectations from projects and their results.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The aim of this study is to determine the level of using  technology of Pre-Graduate students likewise internet and other basic  technology resources while they are preparing their assignments. The  centre of the research is Pre-Graduate students of AICUNI (Ağrı Ibrahim  Çeçen University), Vocational Training School of Ağrı.  Students have opportunities of accessing some other resources different  from books and papers with the help of developing informative  technologies finding their way through educational settings. Contrary to  traditional teaching/learning methods, developing technologies, especially  educational technologies, make it unavoidable for students to use them  while preparing assignments. While evaluated as information resources,  technologies such as internet and TV undoubtedly provide great  convenience to students for their individual studying. However there exist  some obstacles in the technology use for students such as access to  technology, know-how of tools, anxiety level etc.  With the questionnaires that are applied to our students of Pre-Graduate  students of AICUNI (Ağrı Ibrahim Çeçen University), Vocational Training  School of Ağrı we tried to determine the level of using technologies while  they are preparing assignments.  Determining their level of using technology will be useful for teachers and  lecturers to understand students’ tendencies about internet and other  technological resources as educational materials.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Nuclear Energy: An Alternative Energy Source For Turkey]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Energy consumption is an important parameter to show the development level of a  country. Thus the total energy consumption per capita (in 2005) is 1778 (unit is kilograms of  oil equivalent (kgoe) per person) for world average, 4720 for developed countries and 975.9  for developing countries. On the other hand it is 1185.9 for Turkey. Although there are many  different energy sources for many different countries depending on the geological and  geographical conditions, Nuclear energy is one of the most commonly used alternative energy  source in especially developed countries. The first large-scale nuclear power plant opened in  England, in 1956 and nowadays about 16% of the world&#039;s energy needs has been produced  from Nuclear power plants where huge amounts of energy from small amounts of fuel can be  obtained without any pollution by burning fossil fuels. This rate is about 24% for developed  countries. In conventional nuclear power plant the energy is generated using Uranium (235U)  fuel. In a typical sample of natural uranium, most of the weight (99.27%) consists of atoms of  238U and about 0.72% of the weight consists of atoms of 235U. This requires enrichment of the  235U in the sample which is expensive and high technology. On the other hand recently new  generation nuclear power plant based on the proton accelerator so-called Accelerator Driven  System (ADS) has been proposed. Establishing nuclear power plant will lead to be transferred  nuclear technology to Turkey and it will be possible to be used it in other fields.]]></dcterms:abstract>
