    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Attitudes of Foreign Language Students towards Environment]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Key words: Environmental, environmental awareness, attitude, attitude scale  ABSTRACT  Researches conducted so far demonstrated that environmental pollution increases every passing day. Sustainable development and habitable future will only be possible with individuals sensitive towards environment. In developing awareness about environment in an individual, education has a great impact in addition the family and friends. While important studies are conducted in relation to environmental education and protection of environment in some countries, environment is almost ignored in human activities in the other countries. Wrong practices and developments in the surrounding environment indicate that the awareness towards environment is low in our country. At this point, our schools and teachers play an absolutely crucial role. This role does not only belong to the teachers of geography and biology courses where related topics are addressed. Teachers of the other branches should also possess an awareness concerning environment and convey this to their students in a way related to their branches. Foreign language teachers have a crucial role in raising environmental awareness in order to convey studies conducted in foreign countries and make comparisons between countries. To this end, foreign language teachers should have a good environmental awareness. It is beyond doubt that a teacher who does not have a positive attitude towards environment can not raise individuals with high environmental awareness. In this context, this study was conducted to investigate the attitudes of Foreign Language students towards environment. Within the scope of the study, a five-point likert type attitude scale developed by Bilgi (2007) and a questionnaire containing variables which are thought to affect attitudes towards environment were applied to freshmen and seniors studying at the Department of Foreign Languages of Education Faculty of Gazi University. The obtained data were analyzed by SPSS (Statistical Package Program for Social Sciences) and the impacts of sex, type of settlement where students lived for the most of his/her life, education statuses of parents and university education and class level, in particular, on the attitudes of Foreign Language students towards environment were examined.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[This paper argues how current popular TV Shows can increase motivation and help  the pupils learn vocabulary in a fast and an effective way. They can serve as great time savers  and more memorable activities for the benefit of them. The use of vocabulary in a meaningful  context adds up to its invaluable outcome in terms of student participation and attitudes  towards the lessons. Moreover, an ELT teacher may construct his/her own teaching material  out of these shows and plans the vocabulary teaching lessons according to the needs of the  pupils. It is also believed that all of the pupils would like to have and enjoy these shows as  their vocabulary lessons regardless of their gender. Seven sample lessons taken from a  comedy show called &quot;My Name is Earl&quot; are used in the study to illustrate the case. The study  was applied to 50 students in International School of Sarajevo.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Humanities and social sciences are mostly regarded as &#039;&#039;soft sciences&#039;&#039;. Females have greater interest in them compared to males. Because linguistic (in this paper, English language studies) belongs to both humanities and social sciences, the present study aims to examine the relationship of students&#039; estimates of English competence and their attitudes toward humanities and social sciences. The sample consists of 157 participants (88 females and 69 males).Who are at tertiarry level in Turkey. The obtained results reflect no gender differences in students&#039; attitudes toward English and Turkish language; however, significant gender differences were found in their attitudes toward literature, psychology, sociology and pedagogy. Participants&#039; attitudes toward humanities and socal aciences were in significant relationships with all aspects of self-reported English competence. In addition, self-reported grammar skills were the best predictor of attitudes towards the English language.

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Key words:tenses, adverbs, transfer, spontaneous speech  ABSTRACT  Since proper pronunciation and the awareness thereof is one of the main purposes of the first semester undergraduate course Phonetics and Phonology at the South European University, Macedonia; this study focuses on the attitudes of students towards student and teacher pronunciation at the same university. The study examines the importance of the students’ own language competence in pronunciation in comparison with that of their teachers’. For this paper, 53 first year undergraduate students have filled out a 5-scalle questionnaire expressing their beliefs about student and teacher pronunciation in comparison to other competences like grammatical knowledge and teaching skills. Additionally 20 of them have been involved in recorded individual interviews. The oral interview provided insight into their opinions about their own and the teachers’ pronunciation as well as the progress made in the pronunciation course they have completed Phonetics and Phonology in their first semester. This course has the aim to raise their awareness of proper pronunciation by introducing, practicing and testing them on segmental and suprasegmental features like: transcription, stress patterns, intonation among others. The analysis of the quantitative and qualitative data showed constancy in the answers and attitudes of the students towards their own and their teachers’ pronunciation. The data showed that the students had high expectations of their teachers in term of pronunciation. This study also tests whether the high regard for proper student and teacher pronunciation correlates with their Phonetics and Phonology final course grade.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[ABSTRACT    In French grammar, the attribute has a primary sentence function, the exclusion of which makes the sentence ungrammatical. In the Macedonian language, the attribute presents a second-degree sentence member which is not necessary for the correct functioning of the sentence, although it deprives the sentence of the richness of its content. Taking into consideration the presumption that what is called an attribute in French, in most cases corresponds to the nominal element of a nominal predicate with copula in Macedonian, the aim of this paper is to conduct a detailed comparison through an analysis of examples of subject attribute and object attribute in order to detect the remaining equivalent structures of the French attribute in the Macedonian language.    K e y w or d s : French, Macedonian, attribute, equivalents, nominal predicate with copula]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Audit Qualifications in Turkish Listed Firms]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The purpose of this study is to provide some evidence on the effects of  some auditor-related, firm specific and legal factors on issuance of  modified audit opinions. The study covers Turkish firms listed in İstanbul  Stock Exchange. The audit opinions given during the periods between 2003  and 2011 were analyzed. The period selected can be defined as a transition  period for accounting and auditing in Turkey.  In the literature there are some studies on the factors affecting audit  opinions. Those factors comprised both financial and non-financial data.  However, besides those factors, especially in developing countries changes  in accounting and auditing regulations may be a significant factor on audit  opinions.  Changes in regulations related to accounting and auditing by Turkish  regulatory bodies is believed to increase the quality of accounting  information and auditing. However, every change in regulation creates  some problems in application. This transition period serves an opportunity  for the researchers to analyze possible effects of the transition on audit  reports. In this study relationships between these changes and audit  opinions are searched.  In Turkey statutory audit is required only a small number of companies.  Most of these companies are required to Turkish Capital Market Law  (TCML). However, only the financial statements and audit opinions of the  firms that are listed on the ISE are available to the public, and thus the  researchers. Because of this constraint the studies are generally limited to  the ISE firms. The data were collected from the audited financial  statements and their accompanying notes including the audit reports.  Those statements were uploaded from the website of the İstanbul Stock  Exchange.  In the study some debt, profitability, liquidity ratios and firms size used as  firms specific characteristics. Audit firm size and changes in accounting and  auditing standards are also used in the analysis.  The process of audit opinion formation is a complex procedure. There are  many factors, many of those limited in the working papers of auditors,affecting audit formation. Thus understanding some significant public  available factors affecting modified audit opinions would be a significant  mean for crediting auditors’ opinions. It is aimed to form a model based on  some firm and auditor specific characteristics to explain modified audit  opinions given in Turkish capital market. The model would serve audit  report readers in realizing the potential factors influential on the opinions  given, and estimating the a priori audit opinion.  Keywords: Audit Report, Audit Opinion, Qualification, Turkey, Regulation,  Audit Firm Size.]]></dcterms:abstract>
