    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Who are Our Students? Investigating Learners’ Risk Taking Ability and  Achievement on Second Language Acquisition]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Teachers of second language, to be most effective, should be aware of who their  students really are. It means that teachers must comprehend diversities among their students  in many individual characteristics, such as age, self-esteem, motivation and motivation span,  sex, cooperation, competition, language learning techniques, strategies, styles, and the last and  one of the distinctive individual characteristics is risk-taking ability. All of these variables are  directly related to achievement; however the general purpose of this study is to overview the  links between learners’ risk-taking ability and achievement on second language acquisition in  a comprehensive manner. The study examines three stages. The first part of this paper  presents the general overview of learners’ risk-taking ability and behaviors on language  acquisition process and its effects on learners. The second part introduces how it affects  achievement, the proportion between risk-taking ability and achievement. The third part of the  article is related to advantages and disadvantages of risk-taking on second language teaching.  The article concludes with how teachers and learners use this character positively.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Hot-Weather Concreting]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[In practice, concrete is mixed at a wide range of temperatures and also remains in  service at different temperatures. There are some special problems involved in concreting in  hot weather, arising both from a higher temperature of the concrete and, in many cases, from  an increased rate of evaporation from the fresh mix. These problems concern the mixing,  placing and curing of the concrete. Hot-weather concreting is not so much an unusual or a  specialized process; rather, it requires taking certain recognized measures to minimize or  control the effect of high ambient temperature, high temperature of the concrete, low relative  humidity, high wind velocity, and high solar radiation. What is required on each construction  project where any one or more of the above conditions exist is to develop appropriate  techniques and procedures and to follow them rigorously.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Teacher Factor in Foreign Language Education Process  Le Facteur d’Enseignant dans le Processus d’Apprentissage de Langue  Étrangère]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[When examined carefully the existing problems in the foreign language teaching,  it is seen that teacher factor has been in the first order. On browsed to formation of the  teachers working in the schools of Turkish Minister of Education and in private ones, the  graduated schools of these teachers are very different from each other. In addition to this, outof  branch teachers trying to make the foreign language courses make the situation more  desperate. Moreover, these teachers learning the experience as lecturer in the classrooms by  method of trial and error not only affect negatively the language acquisition of the students  but also decrease their interest on a new language. These facts have been a meaningful  reference to many questions to be replied in the foreign language education. Recently, the  problems in this field and not to teach enough the four language skills to the students make  experts incline on searching new education methods. The researches pointing to the role of  teachers which have been done recently in Turkey in the process of effective foreign language  teaching emphasis the out-of date of the teachers’ teaching methods and the deficiencies of  teachers in terms of linguistic and pedagogic. Moving from the publications related to this  study, in the process of effective foreign language teaching, many advices related to modern  language teachers’ duties have been given.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The Balikesir -Bigadic mine is worked by open pit operations to produce  colemanite ore. Colemanite ores are processed by mineral processing techniques to  prepare colemanite concentrates in the Bigadic plant. Colemanite process waste from  this concentrator is pumped to the four tailing dams of the plant. Each passing day  increases the amount of this waste stored since it is not using in the industry. In this  study, recovery of boric acid from colemanite waste by sulfuric acid leaching and  crystallization process was investigated. Colemanite waste was leached using sulfuric  acid solutions. The experiments of leaching parameters were solid/liquid ratio,  stirring speed, acid concentration, and reaction temperature. The most significant  parameters were found in the leaching. The optimum leaching conditions were  determined by these parameters. The filtered leach solutions were studied by using  crystallization to obtain high purity boric acid. For this purpose, the influence of  crystallization time was affected on purity of boric acid. The effects of reaction time  on the particle size of gypsum were investigated. The results showed that high purity  boric acid crystals were obtained using colemanite waste.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Effects of Sustainable Development on Environmental Education]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Sustainable development is an umbrella term, which encompasses  many disciplines including ecology, economy, biology, and education. Today, the  world has started to pay much more attention to environmental problems. As these  problems continue to grow day by day, human behaviors must play a salient role in  solving these sort of problems. The sustainable development movement is creating a  newer and a stronger awareness for environmental issues. Therefore, a process of  questioning, in which some questions such as “Who teaches the environmental issues  to whom, and how?” can be answered, has started, and this process is still continuing  to improve. This paper discusses the effects of sustainable development on  environmental education. Within this scope, various applications in the field of  environmental education are going to be discussed.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Gentrification in Question: The Case of Bursa, Turkey]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Gentrification can be interpreted as a return of the affluent people to the  city. This process is supported by authorities both due to the contributions it could  make to the city in many ways. The studies concentrating on the subjective and  cultural motives prioritize the characteristics that can be called “positive attributes”  of gentrification in general, such as the conservation of the historical architecture by  the renewal efforts as a positive outcome. While accepting the advantages provided  by the gentrification for urban renewal, it can be claimed that it brings about social  problems. The opportunity of cheap housing in the city center is lost as a  consequence of the gentrification, and therefore the low-income groups holding jobs  in the center are forced to move to distant locations. In this scope, the goal of the  study is to identify whether the urban renewal observed in the Tophane, Hisar district  in Bursa, one of the historical cities in Turkey, could be analyzed through the concept  “gentrification”.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Ginger root is one of the most widely used plants for medicinal aims in  Anatolia. Determination of antioxidant properties and of phenolic contents traditionally  used plants is important in respect to pharmacologic studies. In this study, antioxidant  properties and phenolic content of ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) root are  investigated. Antioxidant activity of plant is measured with ferric thiocyanate method,  reducing power and metal chelating assays. Also, antiradical activity of ginger  (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) root is measured with 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl  (DPPH•) radical scavenging activity. Additionally total phenolic content of plant are  determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu reactive method. Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA),  butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), α-tocopherol and trolox were used as standard  antioxidants for comparison. It has been show that ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.)  root have gat antioxidant and antiradical properties and there is the correlation between  these properties and phenolic and flavonoid contents of plant.]]></dcterms:abstract>
