    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Analyzing Macroeconomic Indicators of Economic  Growth Using Panel Data]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[During last 10 years some EU countries had economic instability. They have  short and long term challenges such as unemployment, population ageing,  globalization etc. In this study it is aimed to analyze macroeconomic  indicators of EU countries’ economic growth using panel data approach.  Static and dynamic panel data models were used for determining the  effects of independent macro-economic variables on gross domestic  product (GDP) of EU member countries including Austria, Belgium,  Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France,  Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg,  Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,  Sweden, United Kingdom; acceding country: Croatia; and candidate  countries: Iceland, Montenegro, Serbia, The former Yugoslav Republic of  Macedonia and Turkey. While dependent variable of analyze is gross  domestic product (volume), the independent variables are current account  balance, general government gross debt, general government revenue,  general government total expenditure, gross national savings, inflation,  average consumer prices, population, total investment, unemployment  rate, volume of exports of goods and services, volume of imports of goods  and services. The analysis proposed is based on a panel data (cross  sectional time series data) approach. The dataset of this research involves  33 EU member and EU candidate countries (units). The effects of 12  macroeconomic indicators on gross domestic product volume were  examined. The paper also empirically analyzes the negative impacts of  global financial crisis (the 2007 U.S. Subprime Financial Crisis) into EU  member and candidate countries’ economic growth during the 2002–2012 crisis is, the factors that promote a financial crisis, and the dynamics of a  financial crisis. Thus, the effects of macroeconomic parameters are  analyzed using panel data series. The findings of this research are  especially useful for EU candidate countries such as Iceland, Montenegro,  Serbia, The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and Turkey for  developing convenient economic strategies.  Keywords: European Union and Candidate Countries, Financial Crisis,  Macro Economic Parameters, Panel Data Analysis, Gross Domestic Product,  Economic Growth.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Analyzing Prime Time News in The Context Of Uses And Gratifications  Approach]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Television as a product of modern technology is a magic box that deeply affects  societies at all time and space. Television uses images and sounds to communicate at the same  time, live as a witness to events and having advantages and the experience to viewers as  opposed to pre-modern communication means. It has a different position over the other mass  media because of transmitting video and sound simultaneously. In its early broadcasting times  television content was mainly used for transmission of news and educational purposes. In the  course of time, development of technology has paved the way for a change in the use of  existing functions and made the television an important apparatus for entertainment and  leisure time. The study’s main theme is to introduce audience preferences, especially receiving  prime time news in context of uses and gratifications approach. Television is a medium which  can bring up the news and the news events at the same time they occur. The time between the  event and the broadcasting is ‘zero’. It is a medium that has an advantage to transmit and reach  to its audience instantly. It is using this advantage in a wide range of ways. News has been  described as prestigious program for any channel in television broadcasting. According to this  approach television channels attribute extra attention to the news, news programs and  newsrooms. In this study the motivations that derive viewer to watch television to satisfy their  needs and in particular prime time news usage is analyzed through fieldwork conducted in  Eskisehir.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Analyzing the Educational Objectives in Primary School English Curriculum as to Affective Domain Taxonomy]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[One of the various purposes of the educational activities in schools is to develop and provide affective features of students. However, it is observed that affective domain is often neglected in the educational system practices (Reece and Walker, 1997) and weight is given on cognitive domain behaviors and sometimes on pyschomotor domain behaviors.     Affective domain involves the dimensions such as “interests, attitudes, appreciations, values and emotional sets or biases” (Krathwohl, 1964). These dimensions are product of the experiences the individual realizes whole of his/her life. Therefore, affective domain behaviors may not be developed only within the school system. School must undertake to function effectively in respect of providing the affective domain behaviors. Reflecting affective features to class environment will also positively change and develop the learning climate in the class (Gömleksiz, 2003).    Situations like student interaction, individual behaviors, cultural structure and social climate of the class are related with affective domain rather than the cognitive. All these enable students to work cooperatively with the teacher and other students and to participate efficiently to the learning process (Cooper ve McIntyre, 1998). Values in the cultural environment where individual takes place can also determine the success in the learning environment.    So educational objectives from affective domain are a vital component in the development of English curriculum for primary students. Our purpose here is to relate research on affective dimensions to foreign language instruction. We will discuss Krathwohl’s Taxonomy of Educational Objectives on the Affective Domain and try to detemine to what extent English Curriculum for Primary Schools in Turkey involve these. We will also state the importance and benefits of affective domain in teaching English. Research data will be collected and analyzed by using document analysis method.   ]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Competency can be defined as the observable behavior including  knowledge, talent and attitudes critical to reach the desired performance.  Hence, competencies are behaviors the employees must meet and present  in order to make a business enterprise successful. The main objective of  this study is to analyze the relationship between competencies and wage  level. We hypothesized that there is a positive, linear correlation between  the competencies and wage level. In order to test this hypothesis we have  collected data from one a Telecom Company. The research findings  revealed that competencies significantly and positively affect level of  wages.  Keywords: Competency, Wage, Human Resource Management.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The objective of this paper is to investigate the sustainability of current account  imbalances by using the data of five ASEAN countries, namely, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines,  Singapore and Thailand over the 1981-2008 periods. Sustainability of current account for ASEAN  countries is analyzed under intertemporal borrowing constraint (IBC) approach by performing an  empirical analysis of Pedroni (1999) panel cointegration between exports and imports plus net  transfer payments plus net interest payments. The empirical results of panel cointegration test  show that these variables are cointegrated for whole period and two sub-periods. To find  regression coefficient we use panel FMOLS and DOLS estimators. It is found that the coefficient  is not significantly equal to one but very close to one. The overall results provide evidence in  favour of the sustainability of the current account for five ASEAN countries as a group.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The paper explores the basic principles of the Ancient Greek curriculum as a theoretical-methodological seminar of the Language, Literature, and Culture program at University of Belgrade (Faculty of Philology). At the Department for Modern Greek studies, Ancient Greek is taught as a mandatory theoretical-methodological course in the context of learning Modern Greek. It is also offered to all the students of the Faculty of Philology as an optional course, but in the context of the theory of language. The course itself consists of lectures (with integrated practical work), utilizing the grammar-translation method (as the subject is literary language) with elements of the communicative method, in accordance with what students need to learn the modern (Greek) language. Various texts are used as examples of grammatical rules. Rules are formulated on the basis of prescriptive grammar, through a two-way translation process.  ]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Ted Hughes in his essay “Poetry in the Making” states that poems are a “mysterious they” which present the reader with a special knowledge that “we are very curious to learn”. Poetry, in this respect, should continue its existence whether or not it is read or properly appreciated. For Hughes, who regarded himself as a protector of the secret world presented by this mystical existence, poetry was more than a mere collection of literature; it was the very source of life. That is why his poems deal with particular fields of study such as psychology, anthropology, mythology, and biology in their terminology. Hughes’ commitment to poetry can be better appreciated in light of his description of poetry and its connection to the universe. In his commitment to poetry, Hughes goes further and considers it separately from other institutions in life, and the identity of a poet separately from other roles or identities of a person. This paper aims to analyze some of Hughes` poetry in which he employs animal figures to represent his association of human beings with nature to convey the message that human beings, despite our civilized appearance, are as primitive and violent as other creatures in nature]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The change in trading volume and returns and the dysfunction  of the economy and more specifically of financial markets has been  increasingly attracting attention of researchers, analysts, practitioners,  institutions as well as government organizations. This paper investigates  the factors that are able to explain how financial markets work. Testing  the rational expectation hypothesis and different components of animal  spirits including investors’ beliefs and their behavioral biases, results  show that economy is driven by animal spirits and not by rational  behavior. Considering the classification of the sample by periods of  stability and periods of excessive volatility, results incite to think that  financial markets work in terms of economic cycles.]]></dcterms:abstract>
