This is exact and the biggest willing of us. Once more thanks here to everybody who helped and contributed at any level to this study. In the name of study group Dr. Ugur DEMIRAY December-2008 Eskisehir TURKEY ix PREFACE FOR FIFTH EDITION Communication technologies have a manipulative power an effect on the field of education in general. These technologies have been increasingly used in education and training for many years to meet different needs. Distance education has proven particularly useful for training people into remote locations who can not attend to the classes at universities. The first edition of this study (Including conducted studies between the years 1982-1990) was published and distributed five hundred copies. The second edition of this stuffy revised and expanded version includes 1982-1992 period. The first reason for preparing of second edition is to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of The Open Education Faculty. Secondly we found a chance to add new studies which are missed in the former edition. Thirdly, to add new studies which are conducted between 1990-1992. Also this edition was published and distributed five hundred copies. The third revised and expanded edition of this study was published in 1997 for the 15th Anniversary of The Open Education Faculty by including 1982-1997. The fourth edition is revised and published electronically in 2002. This is the fifth edition of The Literature Review Open Education Faculty covers 1982-2007 which is 25th Anniversary of The Open Education Faculty. This study has aimed to inform domestic and foreign researches on the literature subject of OEF. Most of the studies had been abstracted. And also, bibliographic information and indexes about topics and author name are given. This study is consists of books, articles. dissertations, presented papers and reports. This study is consisted of three main chapters. The first chapter is an introduction which tells some of brief history of the Distance Education in the world and Open Education Faculty in Turkey. In addition this chapter contains the aim of this study and some conclusions about the study. xi The second chapter deals with abstracts of the obtained studies and the last chapter includes subject and author index. We have to indicate here that some of duplicated studies and some which are not available data, not included in this study. So that this study consists of 448 studies here. As being a working group, all of you welcome to obtain original of these studies which are mentioned in this study or at least to establish contact their author/s for carry out your relationships in due course. I hope this study will be reconducted again or reviewed five years. I am quite happy to be pioneer and conduct this version of study again the 25th Anniversary of The Open Education Faculty. Hope to meet in the sixth version in 2012 for the 30th Anniversary of the Open Education Faculty. In the name of study group Dr. Ugur DEMIRAY December-2008 Eskisehir, TURKEY xii ON DISTANCE EDUCATION CONCEPT AND IT’S RUNNING IN THE WORLD HISTORY OF THE OPEN EDUCATION FACULTY AND IT’S RUNNING IN TURKEY AIM OF THE STUDY SOME WORDS ABOUT THIS STUDY ON DISTANCE EDUCATION CONCEPT AND IT’S RUNNING IN THE WORLD Communication technologies have a manipulative power and effect on the field of education in general. These technologies have been increasingly used in education and training for many years to meet different needs. This situation, increasingly use of technologies in education and training, have brought up some new disciplines, or study fields, into education field. Distance education is one of the newest forms of education, which basically depends on these communication and information technologies. As a new and modern approach to deliver instruction, distance education has been increasingly used by many corporations and organizations for both formal and non-formal educational settings in the United States and all around the world. It has been realized by the corporations, institutions, colleges and universities that, when properly and timely used, distance education is one of the most effective, economical, and productive ways of delivering instruction. This fact caused them to employ distance education to deliver training and education to their personnel, clients and students in a costeffective way at a high quality. That is one of the reasons that distance education, has been receiving more attention recently, especially during the late 1980 and 1990. The reason for such a trend is clear: the challenge of delivering more training to more people on more subjects with higher impact and effectiveness, and in a much more effective way can be met efficiently through DE methods and techniques. While a new century is approaching, it seems that distance education is going to be one of the most widely used mode of delivering instruction in almost all areas, but especially in corporate training and education. (Akyürekoglu, 1995). Distance education system is applied by many countries which advocate itself as an alternative according to conventional education; inserted modern communication means to its operation for to be functional or to render service meeting needs of masses. Of course it is not true to say that distance education is unique alternative to all 3 education systems, especially of the conventional education. "In the last ten or fifteen years, distance learning has boomed in all over the world. Large open universities enrolling over two million students have been established in Asia, including the Chinese Radio and Television University, the Sukhothai Trammathirat Open University (STOU) in Thailand, the Universitas Terbuka (UT) in Indonesia, and half-dozen open universities in India. Korea continues to rely on correspondence schools to meet its goal of universalizing secondary education - as Japan did until very recently. In the Middle East, distance learning institutions have also expanded. The Anadolu’s Open University in Turkey, with its over one million students, has already trained and graduated two hundred thousand teachers in recent, and its programs now reach more than two an half million Turkish citizens who are living in Germany end West Europe Countries. In addition, the Open High School (OHS) started to distance education in 1992-1993 academic year with 45.000 students and Open Primary School (OPS) in 1998, under Ministry of Education structure. But, it must not be forgotten that distance education system has some certain characteristics as a difference on being functional and reach to its target's aim of this system, according to the conventional systems. For this reason, many countries have adopted and put distance education in to practice for their multi-aimed on multi-functional strategies. Distance education is described basically as any of the various forms of study, which separates teachers and learners except for supplementary face-to-face contacts and where teaching is conducted through a range of media. Students in distance education are, therefore, responsible for their own progress, in the sense that they must make their own arrangements about where and when to study, work without direct supervision, and basically develop skills in self-pacing and selfevaluation. Most students, however, lack the experience to adapt readily to this kind of study. Although “there is a great deal of confusion about terminology in the distance education field" (Moore, 1991), there are some definitions which describes distance education. Before giving a definition of distance education, it 4 should be pointed out that distance education is not an opposite form of face-to-face, or conventional, education. It is not synonymous with all learning-teaching arrangements that are not face to face nor to be defined as the opposite of face-to-face education. Face to face instructional methods can be used in distance education whenever possible and necessary and educationally appropriate (Moore, 1987). The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Educational Research and Improvement defines distance education as "the application of telecommunications and electronic devices which enable students and learners to receive instruction that originates from some distant location" (Bruder, 1989,.p.30). It is "an educational process in which a significant proportion of the teaching is conducted by someone removed in space and/or time from the learner for Hilary Perraton (1988, p.34). Michael Moore defines (1989) distance teaching as "..The family of instructional methods in which the teaching behaviors are executed apart from the learning behaviors, including those that in a contiguous situation would be performed in the learner's presence, so that communication between the teacher and the learner must be facilitated by print, electronic, mechanical or other devices . Keegan makes one of the meaningful definitions of DE. He reached a descriptive definition of distance education by analyzing some previous definitions by different colleagues who are well known in the field. For Keegan, there are six elements to be considered for a unifying definition of distance education: ¾ The separation of teacher and learner which distinguishes it from face to face lecturing, ¾ The influence of an educational organization which distinguishes it from private study, ¾ The use of technical media, usually print, to unite teacher and learner and carry the educational content, ¾ The provision of two-way communication so that the student may benefit from or even initiate dialogue, ¾ The possibility of occasional meetings for both didactic and socialization purposes, 5 ¾ The participation in an industrialized form of education which, if accepted, contains the genus of radical separation of distance ¾ education from other forms. Distance education, as seen in Keegan's analysis, based on the developing communication technologies. Education and training are delivered through these communication technologies such as video, satellite, television, radio, computers, and interactive systems of the some of these technologies such as video conferencing, audio graphics, teletraining, one way video-two way audio, two way audiotwo way video, and some others. Since recipients of distance education usually differ in their study purpose personal characteristics (including age), learning ability, learning capacity, learning speed, geographical location and social conditions, etc., the establishment of a well-designed and flexibly applicable programs become a basic necessity. Flexibility is necessary to allow the student to pursue study at his/her own pace. A recent study reports that corporations and organizations, which have successfully implemented distance-learning systems, list a range of benefits for their corporations. Among these benefits, the most frequently cited are; cost effectiveness of distance education, effectiveness and productivity of distance education and quality through distance education (Akyürekoglu, 1995). By using distance education technologies, access to remote experts around the country and indeed around the world can be made possible, bringing information from the original resources into the classroom. Connecting many students from different sites with instructors/experts allows the exchange of perspectives on the subjects so that new ways of looking at problems, productivity, motivation, etc. can be achieved. As a distance education delivery medium, satellite is able to facilitate the delivery of instruction beyond the traditional classroom setting to the rural learner, the working professional, the homebound, and other students unable to receive on campus instruction (Nouri, 1994). 6 In a rapidly changing environment, satellite-delivered programs allow educational institutions to access the latest information quickly and with a reasonable investment. Programs based around satellite teleconferences can serve faculty, staff and communities. Because satellites can over a large geographic region, specialized and time sensitive topics can be presented to sites throughout the country and to international sites as well. Even if there are only 10 participants at each site, 50 sites become an audience of 500, and the economy of scale makes faculty training via satellite cost-effective There are also trends towards a convergence of distance education and the mainstream. This derives from the idea that the best learning methods may well be a mixture of face-to-face instruction and independent learning. At Deaking University in Australia, where both campusbased on distance education modes were implemented, student of the campus-based mode found the notes prepared for the distance education students more reliable than the notes they could take by themselves in lectures. Consequently, campus-based students were given these course materials, and courses held on the campus became more like tutorials in support of them (Jevons F. R., 1987). At Griffith University in Australia, founders of the university set out to: Develop a completely new programs rather than one which was based on the existing fulltime program. Offer a sequence of small units, completion of which was marked by one successful assignment or examination. Replace face-to-face tuition entirely by packaged materials supplemented with other materials. Set flexible dates for enrollment and submission of assignments to allow self-paced learning (Kelly and Smith, 1987). In other areas, attempts have been made to set up study centers attached to schools to help correspondence students. In the case, for example, of NHK Gakuen Correspondence High School in Japan, cooperating schools with the main school in Tokyo are used to help correspondence lessons and linked broadcasts. They can, however, get advice, encouragement, materials and assistance with difficult problems from a teacher who specializes at counselling rather than teaching. 7 Where the students are motivated to study, they can accept delayed feedback. However, quick turn around time and shorter feedback intervals seem to be effective for distance education in which feedback delay sometimes causes student dropout. For example, in the case of the inservice Course for untrained Primary School Teachers in Kenya, relay in the return of assignments and negative comments were found very discouraging for the students because they did not receive any immediate help apart from that given by the tutors when marking assignments (Matiru, 1987). On the other hand, the isolation of the student has been revealed as a great problem in most all kinds of distance education. While providing them with a range of flexibility their needs to communicate with other students involved in the same program has been realized. Some schooling and group studies have been made compulsory in many distance education institutions, since they were found encouraging for student learning and for keeping them in the program. Moreover, in a survey conducted by Demiray on how students use their leisure time in the Open Education Faculty in Turkey, students expressed a desire for the establishment of Student Cultural-Educational Centers where they could have access to music, drama, sport events, educational activities, and employment counseling. It was also suggested that this kind of provision could "have far-reaching positive influences on other facets of (the students') lives" (Demiray, 1987). The importance of an appropriate organization of extra curricular activities in response to the student needs is revealed. Consequently, the balance between flexibility provided to the students and schooling and extra curricular activities seems to be an issue for further research. When general distance education and Turkish literature is scanned, it is seen that many academicians and institutions have studied on some various aspects of distance education/learning system and its applications and results from point of view of theoretical and practical respect. Still, these studies are increasing from day to day or year by year qualitatively and quantitatively. (Demiray and et all, 1997). 8 HISTORY OF THE OPEN EDUCATION FACULTY AND IT’S RUNNING IN TURKEY The history of the Open Education Faculty (OEF) at Anadolu University in Eskisehir, Turkey is closely tied to the developments of the 1970's, the reorganization of the Turkish universities and the development of higher education in Turkey (McIsaac, Murphy and Demiray, 1988). Its history is unique in the admission of the first OEF students and the establishment of the first distance education programs in Business Administration and Economics. The beginning of distance education in Turkey can be traced back to several groups of problems; political, social and economic. Not all of these problems were internal. Many were created by external influences. Politically, Turkey is in a unique position because it is the bridge between Europe and Asia. As a result, Turkey has spent much time in its modernization efforts to become an active member of the 21st century. Many of the country's problems stem from its position as an Eastern culture and society trying to blend into a Western industrial world. The past 80 years in Turkey have witnessed dramatic changes. The country, since 1920, has changed its alphabet to the Roman one and established the importance of secularism (the complete separation of religion and politics) in the running of the government. In the 1970's Turkey began to search for new ways to develop its own educational strategy in order to expand the opportunities for its citizens. It was believed, and enacted into law, that education should be the main responsibility of the government. Many feel that the concept of educational equality becomes more meaningful in those years. Economically, advances in science and technology have had their impact on Turkish society. Developments and applications of new technologies have put pressure on Turkey to provide up-to-date education to keep the work force competitive with that of other countries. The knowledge and skills of workers must be constantly updated with new technological information. In addition to learning new technological applications, human resources must also be 9 improved. The present increasing population growth has put pressure on Turkish society to create new areas for work. Competition demands better qualified workers in order to be successful. Unfortunately, traditional educational institutions are not always able to change to meet these new educational needs using classical teaching environments. Recent developments in mass media and educational technologies have shown that electronic media can be used for educational purposes. Distance education which uses these new technologies for providing further education and training, is particularly useful for: ¾ Increasing the level of qualifications of new entrants to the work force. ¾ Updating and upgrading the qualifications of the existing work force through continuing education and training. ¾ Providing training of a kind, which will lead to, increased rates of participation in the labor force among hitherto under represented groups. ¾ Securing a greater synergy between education or training and the economic life of contemporary society in order to ensure the relevance, balance and capability of applications of skills and knowledge. After the 1970's, increasing pressure began on the Turkish government to provide for the growing number of people who wanted higher education opportunities. There was pressure on the government to balance the educational opportunities between the Eastern and Western parts of Turkey, to create greater educational opportunities for the younger generation, and to provide training opportunities for persons who had missed those opportunities in the past. There was also a growing movement to use mass media tools to solve some of the distribution problems involved in providing education and training programs throughout Turkey. Other reasons for establishing distance education programs were the necessity for establishing more open and more flexible educational and training structures. These structures were to be designed and adapted in accordance with students' requirements, taking into account 10 their employment, social and educational circumstances. Because of these factors, distance education was seen as a solution to meet Turkish educational needs. The crucial year in the development of Turkish distance education was 1982. In that year the new Constitution of the Republic was accepted, and in accordance with the Constitution, a new institution called the Council for Higher Education (CHE) was established to plan, organize, administer and supervise education provided by the institutions of higher education. The CHE immediately reorganized the existing universities and established new ones. There had been 15 universities, 15 academies and seven polytechnics before the establishment of the CHE. Through the CHE reorganization program, these institutions of higher education were increased to 22 universities (Eraut, 1991; Council of Europe, 1989). Today, the numbers of the universities has grown to more than 80 includes state and private universities. When distance education history is searched in Turkey, it means 1982 the year Anadolu University, called in Turkish as Acikogretim Fakültesi (or in English The Open Education Faculty). It is seen that the first application goes back to 1970's. Teaching by mail and (correspond education) named (in Turkish as YAY-KUR) was applied in 1970s, but these applications had not been successful at desired level. This result takes place among in discussions from point of view as; applications are administered under the body of the Ministry of Education Strategy, without universities' support and that it depends on government’s politics. Also, in 1970's an institution, named as Eskisehir Academy of Economics and Commercial Sciences (EAECS) was formed. This institution had taken the name as Anadolu University in 1982 after reorganization of the universities in 1981 according higher to education law, article 2547 and was leaderships for the studies (by organizing researches, symposium and congress) on distance education/learning subjects in its body. In other words, distance education concept was started to be researched or investigated at national and international level by education technology seminars, conferences. On those years Eskisehir ITIA had 11 a close-circuit TV studios and its technology was built up by Hamburg Studios, Germany. Developments of distance education in Turkey can be summarized in a general outline as above paragraphs. But after 1980, developments have been more rapid and more planned, have based on science, more functional and more impressive. During reorganization of the Turkish Higher Education in 1981, all universities had dutied for making distance education, by the article 2547 were of Turkish higher Education Council law and it was decided that Anadolu University Open Education Faculty to start immediately to distance education. So that, Anadolu University the Open Education Faculty established and started distance education 1982-83 Academic Year by enrolling 29,445 students, to the Business Administration and Economics Departments. By general lines, OEF reached to its students by printed materials, TV courses and academic counseling (as face-to-face education) at the beginning years. Later on, OEF has added radio programs, video education centers, newspaper, and computer centers, to its operation. In accordance with the Higher Education Act of 1981, Anadolu University (formerly Academy of Eskisehir, Economics and Commercial Sciences) was authorized to provide distance education in Turkey on a national scale. The history of Anadolu University, which has provided distance education at the faculty level since 1982, goes back to Eskisehir Academy of Economics and Commercial Sciences established in 1958. The former Faculty of Communication Sciences of the EAECS became the Faculty of Open Education, or, as it is called commonly, the Open Education Faculty (OEF) in 1982. This faculty was an outgrowth of the newly established Anadolu University because at that time, as today, it was the only institution that had experience in the technical and theoretical aspects of distance education. The first educational television pilot project of Turkey was undertaken here during the 1970's under the auspices of the Educational Television department of the EAECS. Although the first distance 12 education program (Division of Higher Education program referred to as Yay-Kur) was undertaken by the Ministry of Education between 1975-1978, this initiative was a dramatic failure for various political, administrative, financial and even psychological reasons which might be the subject of a separate study. However, especially at the beginning of its own project, Anadolu University carefully evaluated and greatly benefited from the experience of Yay-Kur and therefore the 1975-78 experience should not be considered as a total failure (Eraut, 1991: Council of Europe, 1989). In 1982, benefiting from information of the failed Yay-Kur project, the first true distance education program in Turkey was initiated by Anadolu University. Similar to other distance education programs which encompass delivery of curricula at many levels and in many subject areas, the Turkish Open Education Faculty had its goal, as ten years ago, to broadcast its first programs in the areas of Business Administration and Economics, thereby beginning the process of offering advanced degrees for students at a distance. The original numbers of students admitted was 29,445 for the 1982-83 Academic Year for the Business Administration and Economics programs. All students were high school graduates and were accepted into the OEF programs after passing a placement through the national university exam. Than the of programs have expanded in scope to include not only those subjects but Nursing, Foreign Languages, Math, Sciences, Tourism, Business and Training programs for the private sector, Associate Degrees in Teacher Training and Teacher Training for Degree Completion etc., (McIsaac, 1992; Özer, 1991; Demiray, 1990; Yangin, 1989). Like other Turkish public universities, the government finances Anadolu University and its distance education branch, the OEF. All academicians' and administrators' salaries are paid through government funds. Expenditures for all OEF operations including printing books, television and radio productions, mailing, examination costs, administrative costs and salaries come from Anadolu University's operating budget. Revenues to the university come from government allocations, foundation income and student fees. 13 Although the percent from each of these areas can vary from year to year, the majority of the income comes from the government. Until 1993, the OEF is administered as a separate Faculty within Anadolu University. It has one Dean and four vice deans, each with a different responsibility. After 1993, status of OEF changed by Law numbered 496, Çiller's Government dominant as constitutional article. OEF became a service faculty to the Economics and Business Faculties which are responsible to make distance education apart from the Economics and Administrative Faculty's Business and Economics department in spite of the same content. OEF will serve to realize registrations of students, to organize their exams, to prepare and produce printed, visual and audio course materials and to reach them to active students of these faculties. These faculties are responsible only to design the contents of course material scientifically. In additional, OEF has only to give pre-bachelor diploma or degree programs as do it before. Its administrative structure was not changed for to make these responsibilities. Still it has own dean and four vicedean as being functional mentioned above. Following the opening of the Open Education Faculty (OEF) in 1982, programs continue to expand. Development has included subjects such as Teacher Training, Tourism Certificate programs, Vocational Education, Nursing Education, Private Sector in-service Courses, Summer High school Student Service, the Western Europe project and ChannelE Project adding to the Business Administration and Economics programs, which were the cornerstone of the distance education programs, are stil continuing. In those years’ television and radio broadcasts are designed to be supplementary to the printed materials. As in the printed materials, various university members work on television and radio programs, either as authors or as tutors (or both). More than 300 programs are produced in OEF studios by the OEF staff and broadcasts are aired every year to students throughout the country. Broadcasting services are carried out by the state owned Turkish Radio and Television (TRT) Corporation. Academic counseling centers are located in 59 14 cities 62 center. At these centers, students receive advisory help provided by part time instructors and academic advisors who are selected from among the regional university members. One hour per week of counseling services per course is provided to students at these centers. Approximately 80 percent of the students have regular access to these centers (McIsaac and Murphy, 1988). At these centers there are additional services such as videos, Anadolu newspaper and other official services for students. These three parts of the distance education program work together as very functional components of a smoothly running system. A later project, the Primary School Teacher Training and the Degree Completion program for Secondary School Teachers enrolled Countries and North Cyprus Turkish Republic. of which 150,000 were graduated. The Ministry of Education, Anadolu University Open Education Faculty, has judged the teacher training projects in Turkey as successful many of the teachers, and educational experts. Through the use of distance education media and materials, teachers were offered an opportunity to keep pace with developments in education and work toward improving their teaching situations without having to disrupt their teaching schedules. There is no other way that such a large number of teachers could receive this type of cost effective training. Subsequent projects like Tourism, Secondary School, Televised Summer School, and In-service Training for Private Sector Companies provided students with further opportunities for improving their work related skills. Since the 1980s when the Open Education Faculty began, the number of students who enrolled in universities, including the OEF, increased from 300,000 to 800,000. Because of space limitations in traditional universities, the proportion of students accepted into traditional university programs has declined while the proportion of students accepted into open education programs has increased over the past ten years. For example, out of 322,320 students who were enrolled in university programs in 1983-84, there were 281,703 or 87.4 percent who were enrolled in traditional universities. During that same year 40,612 students or 12.6 percent were enrolled in the Open Education 15 Faculty. In 1990-91, however, 798,500 students were enrolled in both traditional and open education programs. Of those, only 434,788 or 54.4 percent were admitted to traditional universities while 363,752 or 45.6 27 percent were admitted to the Open Education Faculty. These figures reflect the fact that, although nearly twice as many students have been accepted into university programs over the past ten years, the Open Education Faculty is absorbing almost half of that population. While the proportion of students in traditional university programs has decreased, the proportion of students in Open Education Faculty programs has increased. In 1997 the number of students who applied to National University Entrance Examination Center increased to 1.400.000. Out of them 350.000 settled to universities including OEF. The number of 89.000 is placed to the OEF programs. (OSYM, 2000). And in the year of 2001, 479.317 of nearly 1.500.000 candidates are placed to universities including number of 181.346 is settled to the OEF programs. 171.179 of 181.346 are placed to four-year programs and 164.167 of 18.346 placed to two- year degree completion programs (OSYM, 2002, p.3-4). The Department of Economics and Administrative Sciences which is established in 1992 and continue to offer associate degree programs on the following 13 fields: The Department of Health Programs is first established in 1990 due to an act signed between the Ministry of Health and the Anadolu University to provide associate degree education to the nurses under the name of "Nursing Associate Degree Program". Initially, in 1991 new students are admitted to the program based on the special exam administered by Student Selection and Allocation Center (OSYM, 2001). After that year two new programs, Midwifery and Medical Technician programs are included and the students are started to be admitted based on the nationwide university entrance exams. Starting from 1997-1998 academic years a degree completion program directed to the primary school teachers having associate degrees. As of 1998-1999 academic year there are around 35 000 students enrolled 16 to the programs. Agriculture and Veterinarian Programs are developed to provide associate degree study to the technicians employed at the Ministry of Agriculture. Starting from 1994-1995 academic approximately, agriculture program had 4.500 graduates and the Veterinary Program had 1.500 graduates. Except a single course the first two-year programs of the two faculties are same. The students are allowed to obtain associate degrees after competition of the first two years. Starting from 1999-2000 year no students are being admitted to the program. West Europe Programs, which are the extension of The Department of Economics and Administrative Sciences in West Europe programs, are started at 1987-1988 academic year. These programs are coordinated by the branch office established at CologneGermany. Economics (BA degree), Management and Organization (BA degree), Foreign Trade (Assoc. degree) programs are offered to Turkish citizens living at Western European countries mainly in Germany, France, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, and Austria. Various certificate and degree completion programs are being conducted in the Department of Continuing Education: Education Associate Degree Program is established in 1985-1986 academic year to provide associate degree study for the primary school teachers who are the graduates of teacher schools. Approximately 135.000 primary school teachers graduated from the program receiving associate degrees. Degree Completion Program is established in 1990 academic year to provide bachelor degree study for the high school teachers who are the graduates of Education Institutes in the fields of Turkish Language and Literature, Mathematics, History, Geography, Physics, Chemistry, Biology. In 1993 English, French, German, Artistic Drawing and Physical Education fields are included to the programs. Approximately 35.000 high school teachers graduated from the program (Ozkul, 2001). Distance education can be considered as a necessity for Turkey rather than a convenience due to the shortage of higher education institutions and the increasing demand for education. In order to meet this 17 demand, Anadolu University was authorized to provide distance education on a national scale in 1982. As mentioned before, EUA’s evaluation was considered a chance to get a feedback about the University’s distance learning services. By emphasizing multimedia-based distance education in its vision statement, Anadolu University clearly states its willingness to work on providing quality distance higher education to all who need. Programs are increased and differentiated when Anadolu’s Open Education Faculty arrived to 2000s. Business Administration and Economics and 29,478 students were enrolled. By 2007-2008, the number reached to 1,121,360. Today, the OEF, along with the other two distance education faculties, Faculty of Business Management and Faculty of Economics (established in 1993), offers 8 bachelor’s degree and 24 associate degree programs to students in Turkey, the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and in some of the European countries. Turkish is the only language used in these programs except the Program in English Language Teaching. Several online graduate programs are being offered by different departments of the University. For instance, the Anadolu University - SUNY, Empire State College e-MBA Program began in 2004 in response to demand for an online graduate program to help Turkish business leaders and managers operate in the competitive global business environment. It is the first and only dual diploma program in Turkey. The Anadolu University e-Hospitality Management masters’ program aims to train well-qualified managers in the hospitality and tourism sector. The Teaching Developmentally Disabled Children is also an online M.A program, designed for teachers who work in schools and centers, and lack the skills to teach developmentally disabled children. The University provides distance learning tools (WebCT, Moodle, Breeze, etc.) and services for its faculty who are willing to offer networked learning opportunity to enhance their teaching. Every semester approximately 20 professors use these services. However, there is not a well-established, systematic support unit for faculties 18 and standardized procedures for use of distance learning in on-campus courses. Lack of legislations and motivational factors are barriers for the extensive use of distance learning in oncampus courses. Anadolu University provides occupational training programs for the Gendarmerie, Police Force, the armed forces, teachers in public schools and some personnel working at the Ministry of Justice. According to section of Distance Education of the Anadolu University EUA Self-Evaluation Report which is prepared in 2008, some figures are summarize and show that the majority of the distance students of the University are employed (78%), 30% live in villages and small towns, 62% are over 24 years old, 45% are married, and 46% are female. More than 900 disabled students and more than 700 imprisoned students continue their higher education in the programs. Applicants are required to have a certain minimum score in the university entrance exam, except for the Vocational and Technical High School graduates who wish to continue in the same fields of study, and graduates or students of any on-campus program of any university. There are no quotas for programs other than those in English Language Teaching, Pre-School Teaching and Information Management. The Special Programs are contracted by the Turkish Ministry of Education (English Language Teaching, Pre-School Teaching, Bachelor’s degree completion programs, Associate degree programs), Ministry of Health (Nursing, Midwifery and Health Services Program), Directorate of Religious Affairs (Program in Theology), Ministry of Agriculture (agricultural, and laboratory assistant and veterinary laboratory services), Ministry of the Internal Affairs (police and gendarmerie programs) and the Turkish Army, Navy and Air Force. Associate degree holders from any Turkish university in certain fields can transfer to bachelor’s degree distance programs without taking the university entrance exam. Instructional approach in the University’s distance programs varies. The majority is primarily traditional distance programs: print-based, mass-education type requiring self-study. In other words, students are 19 expected to study their textbooks at their own pace and to take scheduled centralized exams. Self-study is supported by several services including TV broadcasts aired by a state channel throughout the country (TRT4), video and radio programs distributed on cassettes, CDs or DVDs, academic counseling, administrative bureaus, e-learning and mobile phone services. The rationale behind this sort of an instructional approach is to provide a higher education opportunity to as many students as possible in cost effective ways. The University also has several online programs. Information Management Program, for example, is a completely online program that does not require any kind of face-to-face interaction among students and also between students and faculty. It is the first online associate degree program in the University and in Turkey. There are currently 515 students in this program. Instruction is provided through Microsoft-Turkey textbooks and software, and CD and Internet based interactive multimedia courseware. Mentors can be reached by e-mail or telephone seven days a week and there is scheduled synchronous conferencing four hours a day, five days a week. It is seen as a piloting environment for technology integration into traditional distance programs. For instance, in a course, the Second Life is being tested to offer mentoring service. The Program in English Language Teaching is a hybrid one, designed to meet the need for English teachers in primary and secondary education. During the first two years, students get face-to-face instructions in 8 provinces including Eskisehir, and in the third and the fourth years, they take distance courses supported heavily by elearning services. There are also on-campus summer courses for students needing additional support. Assessment is done by multiple-choice tests, essays, oral presentations and interviews conducted face-to-face in the 8 provinces. The online components comprise course information, announcements, study units (content), chat, e-mail, discussions, students’ homepages, tests, resources and links to other websites. 20 As mentioned before, textbook-based learning is supported by television program broadcasts, e-learning and mobile phone services, and face-to-face academic counseling sessions. Printed Materials: Currently there are about 400 textbooks used in the programs. The authors are experts in their fields not only from Anadolu University but also from other universities and institutions. The textbooks are prepared by a design team experienced in selfdirected learning. The University has modern printing facilities where these textbooks and other materials are printed. The total number of textbooks printed at the beginning of 2007-2008 academic year was almost 3 million copies. Students receive the textbooks during registration from the administrative bureaus. TV Broadcasts and Videos: Anadolu University has also its own television program production and broadcasting facilities. Around 4300 television programs have been designed and produced in the Educational Television Center (ETV) since its first establishment in 1982. The center, supported with editing and post-production units, has two production studios and a mobile production vehicle. Currently 165 technical and administrative staff is employed in the center. The University launched its own television channel, entitled TVA. However, it is a local channel and is not authorized to air nationwide according to the legislation. Hence, six hours of TV programs are broadcasted everyday (total around 900 hours of broadcasting every academic year) on Channel 4 of the Turkish Radio and Television (TRT4) Corporation. In addition, the University, in collaboration with the TRT4, offers “live broadcasting” three times a year just before the exams. During these live broadcasts, students may reach the instructors in the studios via 800 phone lines, fax and e-mail, and ask their questions. Furthermore, a 10-minute program, News from Our University, is broadcasted on TRT4 throughout the academic year to inform students about the University and the programs. Academic Counseling: For certain courses, academic support is also provided via face-to-face counseling sessions in 74 locations. The University has agreements with 64 universities in 65 provinces and 5 21 towns throughout the country to hire their personnel and facilities to offer these support sessions to its students. The sessions are usually given during the evenings (after work hours) and weekends by 769 academic staff. In addition to face-to-face counseling, the students in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and in Siirt providence take 23-hours of academic counseling from over 20 academic advisors for 16 different courses per week through videoconferencing. E-Learning Services: Since 1998, a series of e-learning services has been designed and offered to students on the Internet by the Center for Computer-Assisted Education. The first service was the trial exams composed of randomly chosen questions. This service was later entitled as e-Exam. Then e-Practice materials, interactive multimedia learning software, including text, picture, animation, and voice, have been offered. The following service was e-Books which were actually electronic copies (flash paper) of the course boks published on the Internet. The e-Television service, publishing the digital video files of the instructional TV programs aired on TRT4, has begun as a result of the developments in the Internet infrastructure in the country and the increase in the number of students having broadband Internet access. In the following period, e-Consulting service which allows students to ask questions to the subject matter experts and receive responses asynchronously was offered. In the same period, the e-AudioBooks service was also launched. For all these services, the e-Support application that allows students to get help from experts about technical problems via the Internet has been put into practice. These services that were developed by different teams at different times were combined under the name of Open Education e-Learning Portal in 2005. This allows students to access all the services once they log in. Students use the Anadolu University e-Learning Portal frequently. In 2007, more than 550.000 students logged in the portal more than 11.7 million times and used the e-Learning services. 750 million hits and 110 TB data transfer occurred in this period. The average time spent on the portal is 27 minutes. 22 Distance students can complete their registration renewals on the Internet with no need to go to the administrative bureaus. Similarly, they can use wire transfer system to pay their tuition and fees. These services help students, staff, administrators and banks save time and effort. Anadolu University provides administrative support to its distance students through its 88 bureaus in 81 cities across Turkey, in Nicosia (Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus) and in Cologne (Germany). Those offices are run by the University’s own staff (total 335 staff) and almost all the properties of the offices are owned by the University. Among the services provided by the bureaus are distributions of course books, honor and high honor certificates, diplomas, diploma supplements, transcripts, student ID cards and issuance of student identification documents. Students may also reach the University via e-mail and phone to receive assistance for their academic, administrative and technical problems. In terms of social support, the University invites approximately 300 graduates with high GPAs to the graduation ceremony. The University has also an online weekly newspaper that gives news and recent developments. Additionally, all the distance students have access to online library services. Assessment system of the University is one of the world’s largest university examination systems. The Distance Education Testing Center of the University is responsible for the preparation and maintenance of a question data bank for the exams. Tests are prepared at this center by a joint committee of authors/editors, field experts, technical consultants and scientific assessment specialist. The exams are administered under the coordination of the Computer Center throughout 88 provinces in Turkey and centers in Cologne, Stuttgart, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin, Paris, Vienna, Berne, Brussels, Den Hague and Nicosia. The regulations require face-to-face examinations. Each academic year, a mid-term, a final and a re-sit exam are centrally administered. 23 Each exam involves about 250,000 supervisory and support personnel and 90,000 classrooms in 5,700 school buildings. Exam papers are graded by computer and the results are delivered via Internet and mobile phone services in less than three weeks. E-Certificate Programs: E-Certificate programs are designed for those who would like to improve their job-related skills and hold at least a high school diploma. Currently, the University offers 17 different ecertificate programs in the fields of Accounting, Marketing, Entrepreneurship and Finance. Each program is composed of 3 courses and the achievement is tested by face-to-face centralized exams organized in 17 provinces in Turkey and Cologne in Germany. Although all the materials including textbooks and TV Programs are provided, the programs are heavily based on e-learning tools and services. Some of the organizations (e.g. KOSGEB-Small and Medium Sized Industry Development Organization) and corporations (e.g. Migros, a supermarket chain) encourage and provide financial support to the members or employees to attend these programs. Second University: A project entitled as Second University has been carried out by the University in order to offer open Access to a second higher education opportunity. The project, initiated in 2003-2004 academic year, enables the Associate and the Bachelor’s degree holders, as well as undergraduate students to be admitted to the distance programs of Anadolu University without taking the university entrance exam. The Bachelor’s degree holders can apply to two or four-year distance programs, while the Associate degree holders can be admitted only to the two-year programs. The total number of students in the programs is 61,743 and the number of graduates up to now has reached to 7,590. Turkish Language Program: Turkish Language Certificate Program is a completely online program, designed to teach Turkish language skills in Europe and worldwide to a diverse population within the context of lifelong and flexible learning. Standards set by the Association of Institutions within Europe for Producing Examinations and Certification for Various Languages (ALTE) have been targeted 24 in this program. Conducting online written and oral examinations as well as employing various evaluation tools, such as participation in synchronous and asynchronous interactions, and use of streaming video extensively differentiates this program from other distance programs of the University. It is an ongoing project. The teams are currently piloting the first level instruction and producing materials for the second level. The program is planned to include all six ALTE levels (A1, A2; B1, B2; C1, C2). Yunus Emre Project: Another project named after a historical poet and philosopher, Yunus Emre, is launched in January 2008. It is an open courseware initiative to disseminate the contents of the distance courses. Anyone who is interested in will be able to access the elearning platform and its components (e-learning course materials) with no charge. Anadolu University is the only distance education provider broadcasting through a public channel (TRT4) to air its learning materials. So, this channel works like a Public Broadcasting System (PBS) for some audience: people other than students also watch the instructional programs to learn. In addition, quite a number of higher education institutions demand the textbooks prepared for the University’s distance students because of their high educational value. Because of its commitment to expand and sustain the use of information and communication technologies in teaching and education, the University encourages faculties to adapt distance learning tools and strategies into their courses. As consequences of this encouragement, several online graduate programs are being offered, some faculties use Internet to support their in-classroom teaching (web-enriched and webenhanced courses) and on-campus students are given access to distance learning materials. In addition, any student enrolled in any on-campus program of the University can access distance learning materials provided in the e-Learning Portal without registering to any distance programs. This opportunity helps faculty enrich their face-to-face teaching and facilitates on-campus students’ learning. 25 As a summary for 25 years, Anadolu University has been meeting the higher education demands of a diverse group of people: high school graduates who could not get in a traditional university program, employees whose employers require them to attend specially designed training programs, people working in the field and need diplomas, and those who would like to acquire knowledge and skills in a field other than their own. Because of this diversity, the instructional and administrative approach changes from program to program. Face-toface counseling services and e-mentorship are the only tools the University employs for studentfaculty interactions in its traditional distance programs. These programs do not provide interactions among students and among faculty. However, students have established online social networking sites to meet this need. On the other hand, synchronous and asynchronous Internet tools along with those mentioned above are utilized to support student-student and student-faculty interactions in online (Information Management) and hybrid (English Language Teaching) programs. Academic and administrative staff from different faculties and departments of the University supports the production and maintenance of the distance programs. Besides, Distance Education Master’s Degree and PhD programs were established to train experts in the field. However, lack of pre-service and in-service trainings for administrative staff is a shortcoming of the human resources development strategies of the University. Another shortcoming of the distance education was the lack of a systematic feedback system. Individual researchers have conducted small or mid-scale research studies and diffusion of the results was quite limited. Starting from 2006, a task force was established to design and conduct large scale evaluation. After having conducted a series of studies especially in 2007, the task force started to work on creating a database system with a fast access to the results. Moreover, meetings with the province coordinators who are responsible for the coordination and administration of distance education services are held on a regular basis in order to improve the quality of distance education services. 26 AIM OF THE STUDY This study has aimed to provide an information domestic and foreign researcher on the subject and literature of OEF. Most of the studies had been summarized in an abstract form, and also indexes about topics and author name are given. Turkish version of this study has been completed for 1982-2007 years too for the reason that a researcher-who has studied on OEF –are applying to the faculty administrators to obtain some data about OEF or documents and to publish their study or research. Some of them come from other cities or some of them are foreign researchers who want to obtain some materials on OEF by writing a letter to dean or rector or someone else. In any case, it has been very difficult to help them due to the limited time. Especially for the last group of people who are coming from outside of Eskisehir, this study can be very useful to save research time. Of course this study has to be updated by adding new studies in future. Since, new studies will be developed depending on previous ones. By this reason please deliver your new studies, which on Open Education Faculty (or studies which are not considered in this study) to the author or the Open Education Faculty administration for informing them in future. Please do not forget that your studies will be resource for the next new ones. SOME WORDS ABOUT THIS STUDY From beginning 1982 to December 2007, many studies have been conducted dealing with Anadolu’s Open Education Faculty and its application as being thesis, article, book, or report, publishing media and the papers presented in some seminars, nationally and international for discussing on some aspects of OEF’s. As being a problem statement of this study it can be said that studies have done during 25 years dealing with the application of Open 27 Education Faculty in Turkey and abroad since its beginning. What were their titles?, What were their topics?, Where and How can they be obtained?, What was their bibliographic information and Where have they been published? And what was the importance of the study for the other educationists, researchers who conducted a study on OEF? Etc. Study consists of three main chapters. The first chapter is an introduction that tells some of brief history of the Distance Education in the World and Open Education Faculty in Turkey and its application. In addition, this chapter contains the aim of this study and some words about this study. The second chapter is dealt with bibliographic information and includes abstracts of the studies. In this part, almost all studies have been tried to be summarize. (Except different version of the same study and not obtained. So, some numbers of the studies, which are placed in bibliography, has not been cited in the abstracts section). In the third chapter contains the subject and author indexes. Consequently, researchers belive that this study will be functional, for the other researchers who are interested-in some aspects of the Open Education Faculty by informing them. Authors of this study are ready to accept all critics, discussions and suggestions coming from reader. In addion, auhors are also ready for to obtain mentioned studies to you or establish a contact with author/s if you desire at any time. ¾ In this fifth edition of the study was completed for 25 years (1982-2007). It can be said that, 99 percent of these studies which considered about OEF has been obtained. Unfortunately maybe four or five of them are not obtained. Of course, those should take a place in the next study (or studies). 28 ¾ 458 studies are placing in this version; while 313 studies were placed in 1982-2002 fourth version. Increasing rate of the publications is more than 50% during 2002-2007 years. ¾ All these studies were conducted and written by more than 700 researchers while 463 of who male and, 248 were women.

This paper explains the results and the expectations of "Open Education" applications which were realized by getting use of mass media by giving information, about Anadolu University Open Education Faculty and takes the subject to a discussion platform. Also, the observable results of Open Education Faculty were included in this paper, for instance, the students have conformity problems for the new surrounding. Besides positive observations such as the remove of the relation between success and continuity; problems such as the restriction of the number of teachers, educators and personnel for distance education and the flu concept of distance education in educational field also take place in the paper. But, it is also emphasized that higher open education is the product of a social need for Turkish society in those years.

Gülriz IMER, Gülsün KURUBACAK. “A Case Study of Organizing Distance Education: Anadolu University”, Turkish Journal of Distance EducationTOJDE, Vol: 3, Number: 1, 2002, Anadolu University, Eskisehir, Turkey. Distance education is a kind of education for the learners and instruction that are away from each other. With this characteristic, distance education provides educational opportunities for everyone, at any place, time or age. In this article, the practice of distance education in Turkey is critically examined, especially at Anadolu University. The practice of distance education at Anadolu University started in 1982 at the Open Educational Faculty (OEF). Today, Anadolu University that aims the teaching with contemporary technologies has 227 courses. The ultimate goal of Anadolu University is to reach every student by means of contemporary technologies such as Internet. All the projects executed at Anadolu University are collected within a master project called “Open Education 2000”. CHANGE READINESS AMONG TEACHING STAFF AT ANADOLU UNIVERSITY, TURKEY 6- AKBULUT, Yavuz; Abdullah KUZU; Colin LATCHEM and Ferhan ODABASI. Change Readiness Among Teaching Staff at Anadolu University, Turkey, Distance Education, Volume 28, Issue 3 November 2007, pp. 335–350, Australia. Turkey's Anadolu University is one of the world's largest mega-universities. It is engaged in strategic planning in response to changes in the expectations of the Turkish Higher Education Council and the community at large. In reexamining its vision and strategic directions, Anadolu University needs to be informed on the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of its teaching staff, and the systems and support needed to assure their change readiness. This article examines the literature of organizational and educational change and its implications for the university. 37 It reports on a study based on the relevant constructs from the literature and is designed to gauge the extent and nature of teaching staff knowledge, skills, practice, and research in educational and technological change, motivating and de-motivating factors, change adopter types, and perceptions of the organizational climate for change. It considers the implications of these findings and draws conclusions about what would be needed to improve staff readiness for change. EŞİTLİK KAVRAMININ FELSEFİ KÖKENLERİ 7- AKINCI, Semiha. “Eşitlik Kavramının Felsefî Kökenleri [The Philosophical Roots of the Concept of Equality in Education]”, presented paper at AÖF’ün 20. Yılı Nedeniyle Uluslararası Katılımlı Açık ve Uzaktan Eğitim Sempozyumu. Anadolu University, May 23-25, 2002, Eskisehir, Turkey. Today it seems that the concept of equality turned into a hybrid, vacuous concept. It is being used only in the service of political propaganda. However the history of the concept is very rich and the clarification of that historical background will be helpful in many 139 respects. In this paper I will try to drive lessons from this history about the satisfaction of equality in education. As a society, we believe that we can be successful by increasing the level of standardization and collectivization. For instance in educational system by creating central institutions or by giving central tests which cover thousands of students, we think that the level of education might be raised. Somewhat the key to success is thought to be in the collectivization based on equality. This naïve influential idea has very old philosophical roots and we mostly are not conscious of it. Also we think that the idea of standardization and the idea of equal individuals are contemporary value, the roots of the ideas are in the distant past. In this paper, I will try to drive lessons which AOF contributes the equality in education.

In Turkey, the open education opportunities for higher education are provided by Anadolu University. The basic instructional materials were books, TV programs and face-to-face tutorials when the Open Education System was first established in 1982. In the 2000s, as the number of students began approaching one million, and with the advancement in educational technology, Open Education Faculty began to provide e-learning services to enhance students’ learning process. Some of these e-learning services offered are internet-based practice exams, exercises, course books and television programs, on-line tutorials, multimedia CD ROMs. Hundred thousands of Open Education Faculty students make use of these e-learning services regularly. This study presents the developments and implementation of e-learning services provided by the Open Education system at Anadolu University. NEW DIRECTIONS IN HIGHER EDUCATION: Training EFL Teachers through Distance Education 20- ATAC, Engin and Handan K. YAVUZ. New Directions in Higher Education: Training EFL Teachers through Distance Education, Online Educa Berlin 2006-12th International Conference on Technology Supported Learning and Training, November 28-December 1, 2006, Berlin, Germany. With the advancement in information and communication technologies (ICT), higher education is taking a new direction. A study conducted by Sloan Consortium (2005) suggests that “online education now part of the mainstream of higher education.” The number of online/distance courses and degree programs offered are growing dramatically (Sloan-C Report, 2004, 2005). One reason for the growth is that distance education provides higher education opportunities to those who cannot otherwise obtain higher education. Another reason is that through distance education, larger quantities are able to receive higher education opportunities. The World Bank reported that 45 only 17% of the adults are able to receive some form of higher education (Van Hook, 2005). As the productivity of a nation and its ability to compete in the international arena depends on the number of its population with higher education, distance education is now accepted as an alternative in higher education. Furthermore, studies show that students are as satisfied with online courses as face-to-face instruction (Sloan-C Report, 2004). Distance education is now accepted as an alternative to traditional higher education in Turkey as well. The Ministry of Education has asked Anadolu University to collaborate in a project to train qualified English language teachers to meet the demand for teachers needed in primary and secondary schools. At that time, the Ministry had projected that 63,000 English language teachers would be needed by the year 2005. As a joint project, Anadolu University designed a four-year BA degree program to train qualified English teachers in large quantities. The program is designed as a blended program whereby the first two years are face-to-face and the last two years are through distance education. The face-to-face instruction in the first two years aims to improve students’ language skills. As the students are placed in this program based on language scores received in the University Entrance Exam, they come to the program furnished with knowledge of English. Therefore, the aim of the first two years is to increase students’ proficiency levels and to improve their language skills such as reading, writing, and speaking. The last two years consist of courses which provide students with methodological and theoretical background essential for language teachers. The aim of the 3rd and 4th years is to develop students’ professional skills. In the face-to-face component students are guided by instructors. In the distance education component, students are provided with textbooks and study guides as instructional material and online support. The online support is designed to supplement the textbooks and consists of extra material on the topics in the book, additional exercises and trial exams to help students understand and learn the material better. In the online support system, for each course, there is also a discussion board which provides students the opportunity to ask questions to the instructor as well as to discuss issues related to that course with other students. This paper will discuss the details of the program which was initiated in the 2000-2001 academic year and share the experiences gained in the last six years. 46 UZAKTAN ÖĞRETİMDE ETKİLEŞİMLİ TELEVİZYONUN KULLANILMASI: AÇIKÖĞRETİM FAKÜLTESİ ÖRNEĞİ 21- ATAMAN, E.

When the traditional education institution became incapable of meeting the ever-increasing demand distance education systems are introduced as a solution. As technologies become more diffuse, accessible and user friendly, they effected education and became applicable for distance education.As a component of distance education, television has great importance. But it has constraints. It cannot build simultaneous communication between student and course content, student and student, student and teacher as traditional face-to-face education can. for a solution, advanced technology presented interactive television. Although the physical gap between communicating agents in distance education still exists, the interactive technology tried to overcome those communication problems. Instant feedback in forms of sound, text, and picture is supplied via various channels. The study explains the method employed in the research. Topics related to the development of interactive programs in distance education are mentioned: Interactivity in educational program broadcasting, development of distance education programs with interactive television and applications in Anadolu University Open Education Faculty. The way the information gathered and processed is also explained. A sample interactive program, designed according to the findings, is given.

BUILDING A SYNCHRONOUS VIRTUAL CLASSROOM IN A DISTANCE ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHER TRAINING (DELTT) PROGRAM IN TURKEY 23- AYDIN, Belgin and Volkan T. YUZER. Building a Synchronous Virtual Classroom in a Distance English Language Teacher Training (DELTT) Program in Turkey. Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education-TOJDE, April 2006 ISSN 1302–6488 Volume: 7 Number: 2 Article: 1, Eskisehir, Turkey. 48 This paper reports a synchronous project, “the virtual classroom” prepared for the Distance English Language Teacher Training (DELTT) Program. The process of developing the synchronous project and the interface with its specific components were reported with examples and supported by theoretical background from the related literature. The evaluation of the project concludes that the virtual classroom facilitated increased authentic interaction and encouraged learners to become more autonomous. When the group of students who prefer the traditional classroom, however, was considered a blended approach which consists of both virtual classroom and traditional face-to-face classroom was suggested as the most efficient way for Turkish EFL learners. READINESS AND WILLINGNESS OF THE LEARNERS IN TRADITIONAL DISTANCE HIGHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS FOR ONLINE LEARNING 24- AYDIN, Cengiz. H. “Readiness and Willingness of the Learners in Traditional Distance Higher Education Programs for Online Learning” Proceedings of the AECT2004 International Conference, Anaheim, 29-36, NOVA, Florida, 2005, USA. This presentation intends to reveal the results of a study in which readiness and willingness of the learners in traditional distance higher education programs for online learning were investigated. It might especially be beneficial for those who would like to learn the ways of integrating online technologies into traditional distance learning courses and what kinds of online learning opportunities Anadolu University provides to its nearly 1.200.000 distance learners. The presentation also summarizes the results of a study in which traditional distance learners’ readiness and willingness for online learning were investigated. AÇIK VE UZAKTAN ÖĞRENMEDE KULLANILAN BASILI MATERYALLERDEKİ ANLATIM BİÇİMİNE İLİŞKİN ÖĞRENEN TERCİHLERİ 25- AYDIN, Cengiz. H. ‘’Açık ve Uzaktan Öğrenmede Kullanılan Basılı Materyallerdeki Anlatım Biçimine İlişkin 49 Öğrenen Tercihleri’[Learners’ Preferences of Communication Tone Used in the Print Materials for Open and Distance Learning]’, Anadolu Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi, 5(2), pp.131 148, 2005, Eskişehir, Türkiye. Literature is full of studies about significance of using a friendly conversational tone in open and distance learning materials. However, related literature is based on the studies conducted generally in western cultures. Since research has revealed the influence of culture on human behavior, what the literature on open and distance learning mentions may not be valid in other cultures. From this point of view, this study investigated Turkish distance learners’ preferences of communication tone in print materials (textbooks) used in Anadolu University’s distance programs. The study has shown that Turkish distance learners prefer an academic tone rather than friendly conversation in their textbooks. INTEGRATING COMPUTER-SUPPORTED LEARNING INTO TRADITIONAL DISTANCE COURSES 26- AYDIN, Cengiz. H and M. Emin. MUTLU, and M. S. McIsaac, “Integrating Computer-Supported Learning into Traditional Distance Courses”, eds. F.M.M. Neto & F.V. Brasileiro, Advances in Computer-Supported Learning, pp.97-120, Idea Group, 2006, USA. This chapter describes how a traditional distance education provider, Anadolu University of Turkey, integrated computer-supported learning into its traditional distance courses. Anadolu University has been struggling with offering quality education to their large body of distance learners (approximately 1 million). To do so, the University tries to integrate computer-supported learning environments into its traditional correspondence programs. Building supplementary e-learning portals, through which learners can access to videos, textbooks, audio books, computer-assisted instruction materials, self-tests, pedagogical and managerial support is one of the important steps taken. The authors hope that those who are interested in distance learning and computer-supported learning in different context will benefit from the efforts of Anadolu University explained in this chapter. 50 ANADOLU UNIVERSITY- FORDOTOSAN E-LEARNING PROJECT: A Model for University & Industry Collaboration 27- AYDIN, Cengiz. H and Elif TOPRAK. Anadolu UniversityFordotosan e-Learning Project: A Model for University & Industry Collaboration, EADTU's 20th Anniversary Conference, November 2007, Lisbon, Portugal. The collaboration between Fordotosan and Anadolu University Open Education Faculty (OEF) in the framework of the “e-learning” began with the need and willingness on the side of F/O to get over limitations of faceto-face education. F/O took on its agenda, using opportunities of open and distance education methods, in order to reach increasing number of the Sales and Post- Sales Service Points (S&PsSP) personnel. The target was responding to staff’s education needs and increases the quality of the services given at the service points. In this framework, the dialogue initiated for better knowing the technical and man-power capabilities of the OEF, led to university-industry collaboration. The cooperative model for this project was based on two teams: ¾ Fordotosan instructors that determined the educational content of the project and were trained in instructional design by OEF academic staff ¾ OEF team that was composed of instructional design and computer assisted learning experts. The components of the e-Learning platform were decided as: ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ e- Book Design, Production and Application Services e- Television Design, Production and Application Services e- Exercise Design, Production and Application Services e- Exam Design, Production and Application Services e- Moderating Design, Production and Application Services simulated from “virtual class”. Anadolu University produced a tailor-made e-Learning package to be delivered over the Internet for vocational training of Fordotosan S&PsSP personnel. The administration of the project proves to be a good model for cooperation in ODL projects. 51 DESIGN PRINCIPLES OF AN ONLINE LANGUAGE EDUCATION PROGRAM 28- AYDIN, Cengiz. H.

YAPICI GÖRÜŞE GÖRE DERS KİTAPLARININ TASARIMI: AÖF Uzaktan Öğretim Ders Kitapları Örneği 29- AYDIN, Irem Erdem. Yapıcı Görüşe Göre Ders Kitaplarının Tasarımı: AÖF Uzaktan Öğretim Ders Kitapları Örneği [Designing of Course Material According to Constructive Approach: OEF Printed Material Case], Anadolu Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, Uzaktan Eğitim Anabilim Dalı, unpublished MA thesis, 2002, Eskişehir, Türkiye. The main purpose of this study is to examine how the distance education textbooks can be designed according to constructivist view and what the distance students' attitudes are about the textbooks, which are designed by using constructivist principles of learning. The design of the study was based on literature review, conversations with experts, and general survey method.The experts were asked to investigate the research material (textbook) to determine if it includes constructivist principles as claimed or not. The survey was consisted of a Likert type scale including 38 items and a 2 open ended questions. 52 The scale sent to the academic advisors of AOF in seven different cities of seven provinces of Turkey. These cities were Eskişehir, Gaziantep, Aydın, Van, Çanakkale, Samsun and Mersin. The advisors administered the surveys to the 457 AOF students who are participating their face-to-face evening classes. Frequency distributions and t-test techniques were used in analyzing data. Results have shown that AOF students generally express positive attitudes toward textbooks designed according to the constructivist principles. The students ranked the highest score on providing opportunities to investigate real life examples and the lowest score of other related materials that help to see different perspectives. Thus, it as recommended that the textbooks should be designed to provide more real life examples. However, these examples should not be just presented to the students but some opportunities to investigate these examples should be integrated to the texts.

An education program does not only consist of educational components. In order that the program could be conducted many administrative and financial tasks had to be planned. Administrative activities play an important role in the process starting from the student enrollment till the graduation. Therefore, with the aim of planning and execution of administrative activities held within OEF DELTT Program in 16 cities at 19 centers, a management information system, accessible online via internet and intranet, has been developed. Carrying out managerial and educational activities, quick and effective communication between units and improvement of staff motivation were aimed with the developed system. Another objective of the system has been execution of administrative activities more efficiently. In this study, structure and features of the MIS developed with the objective of administration of geographically scattered educational units from a center have been explained. Efficiency of the system throughout the works performed up to this point has been analyzed and activities to be held in order that the system could perform more efficiently have been argued. The structure of the information system developed for OEF DELLT Program could serve as a model for organizations and institutions with geographically 54 scattered units. Results obtained could set an example for such organizations. VERİ MADENCİLİĞİ VE ANADOLU ÜNİVERSİTESİ UZAKTAN EĞİTİM SİSTEMİNDE BİR UYGULAMA 32- AYDIN, Sinan. Veri Madenciliği ve Anadolu Üniversitesi Uzaktan Eğitim Sisteminde Bir Uygulama [Data Mining and An Application on Anadolu University Distance Education System], Anadolu Üniversitesi, Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, unpublished MA thesis, 2007, Eskişehir, Türkiye. Nowadays, like in the other fields of study where data mining is applied, large databases are also available in education, from which meaningful relationships could be discovered and useful knowledge extracted. Within the scope of this PhD thesis, data mining is conducted by conjoining data from different sources about the students in Anadolu University Distance Education System. A model has been prepared to predict the student performance which could contribute planning activities of Distance Education System and clustering study has been made to determine the profiles of the graduates. A prediction model has been proposed in which C5.0 decision tree algorithm is used for predicting student achievement. It has been foreseen that the system could be used for the prediction of student achievement by integrating the decision rules of the proposed model. In result of the clustering, five clusters have been obtained by the use of “K-means” algorithm. According to these clusters, it has been seen that they verify the relationship between the computer usage and student achievement.

Fast improvements in the fields of technology and economy have increased the importance and significance of the education of masses. Especially the the improvements in the field of communication –mainly in the field of mass communication- has enabled the education of ‘great masses’. ‘Distance Education (DE)’ in general as well as the traditional form of ‘Distance Teaching (DT)’ with the support of advanced mass communication facilities has been found to be efficient and effective to fulfill the ‘quantity’ in educational needs. However, in the meantime, the common quantitative needs of the greater masses seem to be met where as the new and individual education needs has emerged. This new form of education from a distance which is called ‘Open Distance Learning (ODL)’ is mainly bringing new debates where ‘quality’ becomes prior to quantity. So the identification of quality in education from a distance has become the core argument of the day. Identification of quality in DE seems to have similarities with other fields where as the is significant and unique difference are being discovered. The study tries to suggest a series of charecteristic identities to be discussed as for the quality in DE. A TAILOR MADE E-LEARNING SOLUTION FOR FORD/TURKEY 50- BARKAN, Murat and Nilgün OZDAMAR.

Learning responsibility is mainly of the learner in individual learning process. That’s why an individual learning printed material should be designed according to instructional design, individual learning, distance learning and visual literacy principles. In a short, some points like the character size and type and how objects are placed on the page should carefully be taken into consideration. Each printed material for educational purposes has its own identity. Forming such an identity for the printed materials prepared for Anadolu University Open Education Faculty students has been a process which has had two other processes that are design and production. In the design process, organization and design issues of teaching-learning experiences such as introduction, development and summary parts, advance organizers, practice items, cases, feedback mechanisms etc. are taken into consideration. Production process consists of choosing learning material, context, organization of context etc. Each process requires a team which consists of different professionalities such as instructional designer, content expert, graphic designer, etc. The aim of the project of re-organization of OEF student materials is to provide students with a better quality service and the project has already given positive results. 73 DERS KİTAPLARINDAN ÖĞRENMEDE FARKLI DÜZENLEYİCİLERİN KULLANIMI: AÖF Ders Kitaplari Örneği 61- BOZKAYA, Müjgan.

Since the initiation of Anadolu University’s distance programs, instructional television has been serving to students as one of the two main delivery systems. For every course in the programs, a series of television programs are being produced in-house in accordance with the textbooks. Due to the fact that it provides mass education and is an easily accessible medium for the students, television is one of the essential components of the system. Thus, improvement initiatives that intend to increase the consumption of 76 television programs among students are crucial to consider. This study carries out three main goals: First, it investigates students’ self-efficacy beliefs for learning from television programs. Second, it examines whether students’ self-efficacy beliefs change in time. Third, it hopes to gather students’ recommendations about improvement of television program usage. According to the findings, students do not follow the programs regularly although they believe that television is an effective medium in distance learning. Self-efficacy levels of the student for effectiveness, efficiency and appeal of the programs were also found lower than expected. Several recommendations under four categories have been developed to improve the effectiveness, efficiency and appeal of the television programs as well as to increase their consumptions. These recommendations are related to roles of instructors in television programs, organization of the programs, interrelation with other learning media, and time of broadcasting.

AFTER TEN YEARS OF DISTANCE EDUCATION IN TURKEY, WHAT LIES AHEAD 109 117- DEMIRAY, Ugur and Marina McISAAC. "After Ten Years of Distance Education in Turkey, What Lies Ahead" presented paper at 16th ICDE World Conference, November 9-13, 1992, Bangkok, Thailand. (This article published in Proceedings of the Third International Conference on Assessing Quality in Higher Education-Edited by T.W. Banta, M.W. Bense, A.M. Pitts, R. Matlock-Published by Center for Assessment Research Development, Tennessee University, Knoxwille Tennessee, 1991, USA). This paper summarizes the history, development and future projects of Anadolu University's Open Education Faculty in Eskisehir, Turkey. This distance learning program, now ten years old, is the 6th largest distance education system in the world. The paper traces the growth of Anadolu University's Open Education Faculty (OEF) back to the beginning as Eskisehir Academy of Economics and Commercial Sciences through its development into an internationally recognized distance learning program in a period of ten years. This program, a direct answer to the call for greater learning opportunities for Turkish citizens who are living in Turkey or abroad, also provides a model for education in other developing countries with similar demographics and facing similar educational problems. In the past ten years, Anadolu University’s Acikogretim (Open Education) Faculty has enrolled more than 550,000 students of whom approximately 200,000 have graduated. These students have found educational opportunities in fields from Economics to Nursing Education, Business, Tourism, Teacher Training and Vocational Education. In the future, the Open Education Faculty has plans to become an independent Open University. This is planned to meet the growing distance education needs. On the international scene, recent political shifts in the Soviet Republics and continuing negotiations in the Middle East have put Turkey in a strategic position to offer help to neighboring Turkic Republic States as they continue to develop their own educational systems along new lines. It is likely that Anadolu University will provide leadership for distance education efforts in nearby countries to help them establish similar programs to meet the needs of their populations. 110 ISTRUZIONE A DISTANZA IN TURCHIA CONCETTI GENERALI E SVILUPPI 118- DEMIRAY, Ugur.

This empirical study investigates that why people who are over 45 years old continue to educate themselves. Today, traditional or conventional education does not meet the education demands of people nearly at all over the world. It is not possible attending to the traditional education institutes for especially elderly people. In developed countries face to face education is one of the most expensive activities. But since 1960s, distance education system brought new opportunities to the educational life or history of education. How far is distance an alternative for the older students? One of the main findings of the research was that older student primarily being a student to keep their minds active. And also, to be an active member of the society is the second important point being a student for them at this age. It was found that physical problems do not seriously hamper education projects. The number of adults has been increasing in the OEF from year to year. Already OEF has no special programs or possibilities for older adults.

Researches are have very important role in the processes for deep reading to reaching of knowledge, evaluation of knowledge and social system and occurring of the societies. Besides of the traditional education systems, distance education systems applications are taking a place in Turkish society as being very important educational institute. One and most important application of these is Anadolu University Open Education Faculty (OEF) application at higher education level. OEF has huge student numbers and experience since 20 years. The other one is Open High School (OHS) application which has established in 1992 by Ministry of Education at secondary education level, having ten- 125 year experience. The third one is Open Primary School (OPS) application which established in 1998 at primary school level, having five-year experience. In this period, many researches are conducted on OEF and OHS. There is no any research on OPS up to now yet. In this paper researches are evaluated which conducted on OEF and OHS and evaluated by comprising with each other via content analyze method from point of view of research themes, publication kinds, publication languages, publication periods and, authors’ features etc. ORCHESTRATING ETHICS FOR DISTANCE AND VIRTUAL LEARNING 141- DEMIRAY, Ugur. Orchestrating Ethics for Distance and Virtual Learning, 2nd International Open and Distance Learning (IODL) Symposium Proceedings, p. 811-828, September 13-15, 2006, Eskisehir Turkey. The education systems are globally improving during the mid 90s, when the services are introduced and adopted information, communication and educational technologies in order to develop teaching and learning processes with an aim of providing world-class or an excellent ‘onclick’ education on demand to the learners. With the growth of the technologies, online delivery of programmes became more popular worldwide. Format of online delivery of programmes through this quite effective for learners placed geographically at distant places. As with any other new phenomenon, this online communication for education has brought up new emotional, physical and psychological issues to the agenda of education science. The teaching and learning through this new medium exposed the learning community to such experiences where the teacher and students normally do not see each other face to face. The electronic communication occurs through synchronous and asynchronous means like e-mail, discussion forums, listserves, electronic chat, bulletin board systems, WebCT, other web-based communication. Thus the virtual classroom faces issues like humanizing, role conflict, or other problems about norms, ethics, privacy and sociopsychological deficits. However, ethics is a become significant as misuse or abuse of students often face debatable and controversial area. The ethical issues it is usually read in magazines and newspapers about email. The university administrators, teachers and with such issues where the commercial use of 126 institutional resources, illegal use of facilities and invasion of privacy are reported. Sexual issues are perhaps the most common breaches of this medium. The recent reported news about Multimedia Messaging (MM) scandals in some institutions, where some people uploaded a multimedia clip over a commercial site for sale can be counted as an example. Hacking is one of the most controversial areas. Some people realize it for remedial solutions while some others do it for destruction or for mental satisfaction. Electronic voyeurism is also common in online communication. Obtaining unauthorized access to someone’s electronic mail, breaking passwords, presenting oneself with false identity over electronic chat are treated as unfair conduct. Some instances are observed while a student’s electronic seminar is taking place for example; some people entered into discussions and caused confusion to the group by flashing abusive language during the communication. Plagiarism is one of the most common misuses of the facilities among students. Copying assignments from other people’s work or taking material from the web is found as the easy way out for the students. Privacy of the messages is very difficult in online communications. Although encryption technologies have been developed, defense forces or commercial houses, educational institutions are using them insufficiently. Honesty, which is one of those rare attributes of human characteristic perhaps, remains again a rare phenomenon in online environments. This honesty may take the form of providing trust to the learner by the teacher, or can be exemplified as an honest feedback to the researcher by the respondents for the right conclusions of research questions. One of the most significant features of the open or online distance education compared to traditional education is opening the doors of global education to the student at his desktop. What is critical to the success of this mode of education is to have ethics in place; it is a different field based on mutual trust and respect. The ethical codes that are mainly brought up by the traditional education to the distance education form a very significant base for the future of online education. The author of this paper will discuss how the issues of ethics affect the teaching and learning over online distance modes. Suggestions are also given on how values can be rendered and why there remain strong and 127 urgent demands for a code of ethics that are constructed by various online universities. LEARNING CONSTRUCTION OF STUDENT TEACHERS 142- DEVECI, Handan and Tuba CENGELCI, Learning Construction of Student Teachers, EADTU-Working Conference 2005 Towards Lisbon 2010: Collaboration for Innovative Content in Lifelong Open and Flexible Learning, 10-11 November 2005, Rome, Italy. The aim of this study is to determine the profile of the student teachers who are attending Social Studies Teacher Training Program at Anadolu University and investigate how they construct their learning. Constructivism is a philosophical approach that explains how individuals understand and learn. From the constructivist perspective, learning is a process where student construct the knowledge of objects, facts or concepts in their mind based on their prior experience. Learning involves and depends on the prior knowledge the learner brings to the environment and the mental, physical actions of learners as they interact with people and objects. Individuals make sense of knowledge by themselves and they construct knowledge in their mind. For that reason determining how socio-economic-cultural differences affects students in constructing knowledge would be useful to provide meaningful and memorable learning. It is important to research how student teachers construct their learning in their minds because they will teach how to construct learning to their students in the future. Both qualitative and quantitative research methods were used in the study. Firstly, a profile questionnaire was implemented to student-teachers to get their personal information. Then a questionnaire was given, the results of which were analyzed through personal profile information of student teachers and an interview was made with student teachers to determine how they construct their learning. 128 TÜRKİYE’DEKİ İNTERNETE DAYALI ÖNLİSANS PROGRAMLARININ YAPICI ÖĞRENME ORTAMLARI TASARIMI AÇISINDAN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİNE YÖNELİK BİR DENEME 143- DINCER, Kübra.

The author who evaluated the suitability of text books which were prepared especially for the system from the point of student views and a selected expert group's view; develops suggestions, orientated to application. The first chapter of the book, which consists of two chapters, mentions about theoretical base of distance education. General properties and application methods of distance education and Open Education Faculty applications in Turkey was also mentioned. In second chapter, the results of inquiry applied to 19.030 of the students who were registered to the first grade of The Open Education Faculty, in 1983-84 educational years were evaluated. Author stated that this study makes the strong and the weak sides of OEF's printed materials clear. Generally, the study doesn't give much result when we consider courses and units alone, and for this reason it is needed more research on this subject in future. 136 AÖF'ÜN AÇIKLIK SINIRLARI 155- GOKDAG, Dursun "AÖF'ün Açıklık Sınırları [Openness Boundaries of the Open Education Faculty)", Kurgu, Anadolu Üniversitesi İletişim Bilimleri Fakültesi Yayınları, No: 7, pp: 93-504, Yayın No: 3865/149, January, 1990, Eskisehir, Turkey. Dr. Gokdag in his article discuss that The Open Education Faculty how open when looking its running. As known distance or open education is quite flexible education. If you put some condition or do not give all services, which are needed by your target students how can you say that I am making a distance education. In this perspective Gokdağ says that it is very difficult to say The Open Education Faculty is not really open inspire of keeping "open" words in front of its name or title. This article brings a new discussion perspective that administrator of the Open Education Faculty have to go over or for its structure or running steps. He suggests that distance education applications be should open as possible as every where even in Turkey too.

Anadolu University is the institution in higher education in Turkey that uses distance education. This university is applying distance education since the education year of 1982-83. Anadolu University, which has initiated applying distance education in one faculty (Faculty of Distance Education) and 2 fields, has increased the number of faculties to 3 and the number of programs to 20. The number of students was 30 thousand in the first year and today this number is 400-500 thousand. In the distance education programs of Anadolu University, as the examinations should be in the form of multiple choices, some problems such as the abuse of system occur. As 137 the private courses establish the possible questions to take place in the examinations and make the students register to these courses memorize these and publish them as books and as the question books are torn, photocopied or stolen during the examination, the system is abused. Especially the students in big cities do not study on the course subjects and do only memorize these questions for the examinations. As a result, Faculty of Distance Education is at present an institution that only distributes diploma. The reason for this is not the distance education system, but the application in the Faculty of Distance Education.Faculty of Distance Education has students everywhere in Turkey. All works such as the registration of these students, all the required transcriptions, preparation of education materials and distribution of them to students, the support services necessary for students, examination and evaluation are tried to be conducted by the Faculty of Distance Education. And the problems in the Faculty of Distance Education arise from such kind of application. In the proposed model, the students who desire to have distance education will be able to be registered to the relevant faculty of the university they wish. The student will be the student of that university. The services such as student transcriptions and the diploma issued will be the diploma of that faculty, not the DE Faculty's. In this model, the responsibility of the Faculty of Distance Education will be limited with the preparation and distribution of the education materials. In the distance education system applied by Anadolu University, it is not possible to overcome this vital problem with the existing centralized structure. However, it is necessary to overcome the experienced problems and to change the current structure. In the presentation, the dimensions of this problem will be emphasized and a more effective and productive system will be emphasized and a more effective and productive system will be discussed.

Anadolu University, which started its distance teaching programs in 1982, is the first and only distances Teaching University in Turkey. The system has been used as a solution for many educational needs. For instance, it is used for greater equality of opportunity of access to higher education; for those adults who had missed the opportunity to attend an University; and again for adults to have access to educational opportunities throughout their lives in order to renew or update their knowledge. The system is also used for teacher and health education and to train people for the tourism sector. Anadolu University has extended its distance programs to Turkish Republic of North Cyprus and to West European Countries. Anadolu’s international organization is a gigantic system that has been running for 20 years, without any serious problems. One of the areas for which distance education can be used is to solve the problem of faculty shortage. Unfortunately many universities have been suffering from the shortage of faculty for years. It may seem strange enough that not one of those universities has tried to encourage their students to take some courses from existing distance teaching programs in Turkey. This study examined the possible reasons and solutions of Turkish Universities’ attitudes towards distance education programs. of particular interest is examining the reason why these universities are not collaborating with Anadolu University about its distance education programs.

This study is related to display the teaching-learning services of these private courses. What necessities have raised this phenomenon? What kinds of services are submitted? How much widespread are these services? And is there any dimensions that OEF make use are the questions that tried to be answered in this research. For the data collection, a face to face and a telephone interview has been conducted with the two oldest private course owners, and their web sites are examined. The first course organizations started right at the beginning of OEF. There is more than 200 private course organization for OEF students in all over the Turkey. 65% percent of these organizations are in the three biggest cities. These organizations are offering face to face instruction, selling books and VCD sets, and giving tests to students. It can be said that these courses are functioning like the student support service of OEF. But they have been ignored by OEF since their establishment. It seems a wise idea For OEF, to communicate with these courses for the advantage of its own students. On the other hand, OEF books have been used in these courses, so nobody can evaluate the books better than the teachers who are teaching at the courses.

Forecasting numbers of students in education systems’ was quite difficult and essential problem because of the fact that the number of students is one of the most volatile components of these systems. The aim of this study is forecasting the number of students that will be in the following education terms in Anadolu University Open Education Faculty (OEF). These numbers are important in planning and printing decisions of the books of the lessons. In order to make those predictions, we need to consider the dynamic and probabilistic structure of the system. So, in this study we use simulation techniques that consider this structure of the system. After the investigation of the students’ moving in OEF education system, a simulation model for prediction of the number of students per lessons. Validity and verification analysis of the model results show that our model can be used for those predictions. TURKEY: Home ohe Worlds Largest Student Body 194- HOLBROOK, Deborah. “Turkey: Home of the Worlds Largest Student Body”, Distance Educator Report, Published by the International Monetary Fund, February 15, 2002, USA. 161 In 1998-1999, 650.000 students were participating in 18 different programs at Turkey’s Anadolu University. At that time The World Bank recognized Anadolu as the world’s largest university. Since 1998, video conferencing from studios in Ankara provides live, face-to-face interaction with instructors. In January 1999 direct Internet, e-mail, and fax connections via satellite were started so that the students could have question and answer discussions with instructors. Future plans include increasing the capacity of the TV band, more video conferencing, and establishing a pre-school teacher education. Anadolu continues to investigate the possibility of more computers based communication technologies to improve access and flexibility, including remote electronic classrooms, more teaching materials, and employing foreign experts. OPEN AND DISTANCE EDUCATION: A Comparative Analysis of The Open Education System In Turkey and the Open University in The United Kingdom 195- ICBAY, Mehmet Ali. Open and Distance Education: A Comparative Analysis of The Open Education System In Turkey And The Open University In The United Kingdom, V Uluslararası Eğitim Teknolojileri Kongresi, Sakarya Üniversitesi, Eylül 2005, Sakarya, Türkiye. The 21th century is an era of sudden changes in the social, economic, political and cultural values. As an element of the society, education is affected by those changes as well. The high demand for personal development, the great increase in population, the technological developments spreading its effects to the education and the new perspective viewing education as a key to remaining competitive in the national and international enterprises lead to an inquiry for new, effective and efficient methods in education. Open and distance education is a result of this growing inquiry.A comparative education vista reinforces the understanding of the educational dynamics by providing a set of analytical categories and modes for examining the realities of education. This perspective underlies the approach of this study in conducting a comparative examination of two open and distance education institutions, 162 the Open Education System in Anadolu University, Turkey, and the Open University in the United Kingdom. The study first describes open and distance education briefly, and then gives its brief history. At then end, by relying on statistical data and relevant literature, the dimensions of comparative analysis in these two open and distance education institutions, which involve the country context, the origins of the institutions, the institutional organization, the staffing and students and the finance in the institutions, are investigated.

(In addition this article is published in TOJDE-Turkish Journal of Distance Education, Vol: 1, Number: 1, 2001, Anadolu University, Eskisehir, Turkey). There has been a huge expansion of distance education in Turkey. Over the last two decades and this book provides both an overview of the work of the Open Education Faculty (OEF) and a more detailed listing and abstracts of 200 related studies. The book begins with an introductory chapter, which discusses the nature and current issues in distance education and offers a short history of the Open Education Faculty in Turkey. The remaining chapters contain bibliographic information and abstracts of research studies, projects, conference papers and other printed materials relating to the distance education issues and the work of Open Education Faculty. The brief sketch of the Open Education Faculty will be of interest to those unfamiliar with the developments in Turkey. The Open Education Faculty was established in 1982 at Anadolu University in response to pressure to increase opportunities for higher education and to use more open and flexible education and training structures. In the first year nearly 30,000 students were admitted to the Business Administration and Economics departments and the teaching system made use of printed text, television and academic counseling. This model of distance education was popular and successful. Today the Programs of study include nursing, languages, mathematics, science, tourism and teacher training. The Open Education Faculty also provides educational opportunities for Turkish citizens in other Western European countries. The OEF has had a major impact on higher education in Turkey. Student numbers have grown to approximately 550,000 and more than 100,000 students have graduated over the last 15 years. As a result the number of people who have gained access to higher education has more than doubled. The main aim of the book is to document the main studies relating to the OEF in order to aid researchers. A listing, alphabetical by author, is followed by an abstract of each study. The 200 studies cover a broad range of issues including student characteristics and progress, Programs of study, teaching and learning methods; and the theory and practice of distance 172 education. There would be the same advantages in grouping the studies around a number off topic headings. This review succeeds in offering a comprehensive resource for researchers, and Professor DEMIRAY is willing to act as a contact point for further discussion.

The 21st Century will be one in which Information and Communication Technologies are widely used. The fact that the level of knowledge on a global scale increases every day and that we must make use of this is undisputable. The circulation of knowledge has increased with globalization, and technologies to retrieve and make the most use of this knowledge have been developed. E-Learning has become an increasingly important concept in recent years. For the full understanding of the concept of E-Learning, a clear definition of its basic applications is required.E-Learning can be briefly defined as electronic learning, but can also be described as learning over a network or the internet. Regardless of how it is defined, the goal is to provide a healthy transmission of ever-changing and developing knowledge ‘Everywhere, Any Time, to Anyone’, as well as provide an interactive reciprocation and transformation of knowledge. 175 This paper provides a definition for E-Learning, establishes the need for ELearning and provides further analysis into the fields of distance education and networked learning, while studying the aspects of accessibility, quality and cost.

The study examines the participation frequency of the students enrolled in Information Management Vocational Program of Anadolu University Faculty of Open Education in such academic support services as e-mail, forum and virtual classrooms and their perception of social presence. The general purpose of the study is to determine the usage frequency of online learners of the various support systems and to examine the relationship between the usage frequency and their perception of social presence.In order to determine these learners’ interaction frequency and their perception of social presence, Computer Mediated Communication Scale (CMC Scale) of Chih Tu, whose validity and reliability were approved have been used. In addition to the questions on social presence perception, the scale also includes certain demographic questions to determine their interaction 177 frequency in the environments provided for them. As a result of the study, it was found out that the learners preferred e-mail environments most of all the academic support services. It was concluded that the reason for this preference is to be able to keep the messages in task-based communications. It was also noticed that those students with high social presence perception had more interaction in forum environments. Following the study, some recommendations were made for researchers, practitioners and environmental designers based on the findings and conclusions of the study.

A MODEL FOR ORGANIZING WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS IN THE CONTEXT OF A PROPOSED MODEL FOR OPEN UNIVERSITY IN TURKEY 180 223- KOYMEN, Ulkü. A Model for Organizing Written Instructional Materials in The Context of a Proposed Model for Open University in Turkey. Graduate School of Syracuse University, unpublished doctoral dissertation), 1983, Syracuse, USA. This study explores the potential for developing adaptations of an Open University model and instructional design models for the Turkish Open University. The aim of the study is to adapt existing theories and a model to a new context. The study consists of two parts. Part one deals with the adaptation of the British Open University model to the specific needs and conditions of Turkey. Part two is concerned with the instructional design models, which are used in the preparation of written materials, and their adaptation to the Turkish Open University. Part one consists of four steps. In the first step, the characteristics of a general distance education model are reviewed. In the second step, two successful distance education systems (the British Open University and the Everyman's University in Israel) are analyzed and their important characteristics relevant to the Turkish Open University are listed. In the third step, the major factors, which influence the adaptation process, are identified. Finally in the fourth step the British Open University model is adapted to the specific conditions of the Turkish Open University on the basis of the analyses done in the second and third steps. The adaptation starts with identifying goals and objectives of the Turkish Open University. Then its admission policy and media used in delivering the instruction are determined. Finally course related, student related, and organizational, administrative and economic aspects of the model are discussed. This part addresses the question of quality instruction in the Turkish Open University. It starts with a review of the nature, context and importance of the instructional design theories and classification of the instructional variables. The development of instructional design models is carried out at two levels: ¾ micro and ¾ macro. At the micro level Merrill's instructional design models comprising the Component Display Theory are adapted to the Turkish Open University. In the adaptation process, first the prescriptive relationship among method, condition, and outcome variables is formulated. Second, the characteristics 181 of outcome and condition variables, which have impact on the method variables relevant to the Turkish Open University, are determined. Finally, the characteristics of each pr esentation strategy component (both primary and secondary), the degree of learner control, and the richness of the models are determined. The elaboration models developed by Reigeluth are used to design instruction at the macro level. A summary of the elaboration theory and the elaboration models are presented. The reasons favoring the use of elaboration mode ls are then discussed as well as the use of learner control and its importance for the Turkish Open University. COMPARISION OF THE TRADITIONAL HIGHER EDUCATIONAL AND OPEN EDUCATION SYSTEM FROM POINT OF LEARNING AND STUDY STRATEGIES 224- KOYMEN, Ulkü. "Comparison of The Traditional Higher Educational and Open Education System from The Point of Learning and Study Strategies]”, 14th ICDE World Conference, 13p, August 9-16, 1988, Oslo, Norway. (This article is published in Distance Education, Vol: 13, Number 1, pp: 108-117, 1992, Toowoomba, Australia). In this study, the Learning and Study Strategies of the students of the Faculty of Administrative Sciences at Çukurova University, representing the traditional system and those at the Open Education Faculty of Anadolu University, have been investigated. The Learning And Study Strategies Inventory (LASSI), developed by Claire E. Wein stein, has been used as an evaluation instrument. LASSI consists of ten scales: Attitude, Motivation, Time Management, Anxiety, Concentration, Information Processing, Selecting Main Ideas, Study Aids, Self-Testing and Test Strategies. LASSI has been administered to 704 students and the scores have been placed on the LASSI evaluation chart in order to attain students, learning and study strategies profiles. Findings reveal that students of both groups have considerably lower scores in comparison to the other college students answering the same items. 182 However no important difference has been found between the groups belonging to the two different systems. WOMEN IN TURKEY AND THE POTENTIAL FOR OPEN LEARNING 225- KOYMEN, Ulkü. "Women in Turkey and the Potential for Open Learning”, Toward New Horizons for Women in Distance Education: International Perspective, (Ed. Karlene Faith), pp: 205-213, Routlege Publications, 1988, London, UK. In this article, author focus on the problems of women’s' education in Turkey in the context of other social events and will examine the potential of the distance education system for solving these problems. In this meaning, article discusses some characteristics of the women students and gives some examples from Open Education Faculty, which one over three of the total population was, girl students in OEF. Results of the research indicate that: The Turkish Open Learning Faculty is a very recent establishment. Despite its short experience, however, it has already attempted to solve some of the important educational problems in Turkey. The potential of the Turkish Open Learning Faculty for solving these problems could be summarized as follows:It has the potential for providing educational opportunities to women who are disadvantaged by religious, socio-economic and geographical conditions. It has already attempted to give higher education opportunities to elementary school teachers, the majority of whom are women, who will be able to get a higher education diploma, raise their retirement benefits and develop themselves as they educate the future women of Turkey. It has the potential to provide educational opportunities to Turkish women in Germany, who are squeezed between two cultures and have lost their own identity. Although the Turkish Open Learning Faculty has only two-degree programs at present, they could be extended to include the following courses for rural women: 183 ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ Literacy education Nutrition Maternal and child healthcare Sanitation Housing improvement Family planning Basic consumer economics Small-farm management Cultivation of vegetables and fruits on family land garden Open learning in Turkey has the potential to support and facilitate the realization of Atatürk's principles by providing education to Turkish women through its own structures.

Açık Yüksek Öğretime Olan Bireysel Talebi Etkileyen Etkenlerin İncelenmesi [Affecting Factors on Individual Demand for Open Higher Education Survey], Ankara University Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, unpublished MT thesis), Ankara, Turkey. The purpose of this research which comprises the investigation of factors affecting the individual demand for Open University is to recognize individual, social and economical characteristics of the students in Open University and to determine the reasons for preferring the Open University as well as the students’ opinions concerning the benefits expected from this education system. Following this basic goal is aimed to obtain information on whether the student opinions for benefits expected from this education system, vary or not with respect to properties such as gender, type of highschool and age, and the expenditures of the individuals due to studying in such an education system. The research was based on the “general survey model” and the data supporting the research was acquired from a 400 random selected students amongst the students of first grade of Anadolu University Management and 185 Economy Faculties which are attending the open education courses located in Ankara during the 1995-1996 education terms. The findings of this research exhibit that most of the Open University students are girls, married people, people aged over 26 and middle and lower class employees working in public sector or a private company. The research also determined that the majority of the students believe that the education they are getting is not related with their jobs. The Open University is being preferred as it makes it possible to maintain together both working and educational life. The other reasons indicated in the research were not considered as effective. Getting a rank and grade advancement comes the first out of the expected benefits from open university; moreover, benefits such as advancing to a higher position, obtaining increase in salary, finding a job or being able to change the job are some of the material expectations.

(Eds.), 186 Proceedings of Society for Information Technology and Teacher Education International Conference 2003, pp. 390393, Chesapeake, VA: AACE. Many undergraduate and graduate courses in Open Education Faculty (OEF) of Anadolu University in Turkey have been delivered for over the two decades. Most of distance programs have been distributed via traditional distance education approaches and philosophy, such as TV and radio programs, printed materials, etc. Today, however, OEF has been switching the Internet, World Wide Web (WWW) and their related technologies as a new understanding and approach in distance education. Distance English Language Teacher Training Program (DELTT) is a new interactive distance learning model for Preservice English Teacher Program in OEF. The pilot study has been conducted to integrate courses into the curriculum. For that reason, Introduction to Linguistics and Language Acquisition courses in the DELTT Project were chosen to deliver via WebCT during the pilot project. This is an action research which has two main purposes: ¾ to introduce the curriculum, instruction, learning materials and self-testing system of the two WebCT-based courses, and ¾ to analyze and describe the online workers’ (administrative faculties, technology support staff and online instructional designers) experiences, perspectives and feelings toward WebCT-based distance online education in the DELTT Project.

REFLECTIONS OF SOFTWARE ROFESSIONALS ON PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS REGARDING COMPUTER ETHICS 232- KUZU, Abdullah and Nilgün OZDAMAR. Reflections of Software Professionals On Problems And Solutions Regarding Computer Ethics, Proceedings, 7th International Educational Technology Conference Education Technology for Innovation and Change in Education, May 3-5 2007, Magosa, North Cyprus Turkish Republic. Besides providing favorable advantages for social lives of people, data processing technologies brought some serious ethical problems to the agendum of the information society. Those problems, which information society comes across, differentiate with reference to their utilization and intended use. Among the most salient of those issues are as follows; confidentiality and privacy of individual data on personal computers; authenticity, fidelity, and accuracy of information; property of the data or conception -the owner of the resources and channels through which information is transmitted; and accessibility – equal circumstances for every one who wants to obtain data or information. These ethical problems, which are usually ignored or neglected, are increasing gradually. Therefore, the ethic problems such as accessibility, storage, and fairness and justice in the distribution of the information should be concerned in detail. Thus, the present study intended to figure out the reflections of the software professionals related to the computer ethic and intellectual property problems as well as their suggested solutions to those problems. 188 The data of this qualitatively designed study is obtained from software professionals working at Anadolu University, Open Education Faculty, Computer Assisted Education Unit and Anadolu University Computer Center. In order to determine the participants of the study a purposeful sampling method is employed. The data of the study is collected through semi-structured interviews and reliability and validity precautions concerning the authenticity of data were taken. Inductive coding technique was particularly used to analyze the data. Findings were interpreted and illustrated through direct quotations of the participants.

It has definite objective of establishing a causal relationship for identifying the basis for any change or devolepment in a social phenomenon. An analysis of trends and results of research studies so far undertaken in Distance Education (DE) in Turkey would indicate the conceptual basis for its growth development and finally its contribution towards the expansion of higher education and training in the country. The present study is based on the review of DEMIRAY's review study of the literature on the Open Education Faculty Anadolu University. The study also attempts an international comparison of review studies conducted elsewhere in the world for analyzing the similarities or dissimilarities of research in distance education. The main objective of the study is to further examine the gaps in the existing literature, analyze the research formulations on the conceptual developments in DE and to identify the areas of concern in which more and more studies are needed towards ensuring qualitative development in DE. The study thus will be useful to the future researchers in the field so as to be more serious in 190 choosing the relevant areas for their research that would in the long run help to promote healthy development of distance education in Turkey.

This study explains mission of the Open Education Faculty for Turkey's educational needs. In this study it was served that distance education application by OEF is provided at least partially successful in all three areas as national priorities. These are; ¾ To provide expanded admission procedures allowing more of the growing population to have opportunity to attend university. ¾ To distribute faculty members throughout the university system thus providing experienced faculty members even inrural areas. Although there are many administrative problems in offering these distance education courses the Open Education Faculty at Anadolu University is excited about the challenge and opportunity to meet these, the national's top educational priorities.

This paper examines problems affecting evaluation of distance education in developing countries. There are economic, political and social issues, which restrict the amount of original research done in countries such as Turkey, Pakistan and India. Although large populations are available for studies, 192 variables are not easy to control and quality data is difficult to obtain. In addition, political agendas resulting in national education directives such as Turkey's Higher education Act of 1981, influence methods and types of data collected. A closer examination of these issues results in recommendations made for production of original research in countries such as Turkey. The second part of the paper investigates that the identification of existing distance education research done in Turkey and other developing countries. Because of difficulty of locating such studies in the published literature, ephemeral literature and government reports must be made available. One method for collecting the studies and evaluating their results is suggested. A meta analysis for synthesizing the results of such research in distance education, is discussed.

Distance education is offered in three faculties and one institute of Anadolu University: Open Faculty of Education, Faculty of Economics, Faculty of Business and Western European Programmes. In 1982, the Open Education Faculty of Anadolu University started to offer distance education delivering two-to-four-year undergraduate programmes via Turkish-language broadcasting television broadcasts in Turkey, Europe, and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. Following upon this success, distance programmes in the Faculties of Economics and Business were founded. These programmes are undertaken using various educational platforms and media (video, computer, radio and newspaper-printed materials, television programmes, video-conferencing, Internet and e-mail services, and face-toface academic tutorials). The Educational Television and Radio Production Centre (ETV) of the Open Education Faculty produces approximately 300 television programmes and revises almost the same amount of printed teaching materials each academic year.

Uluslararası Uzaktan Eğitim Sempozyumu Bildirileri [Proceedings of Türkiye the First International Distance Education Symposioum], Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı, Film Radyo Televizyonla Eğitim Başkanlığı (FRTEB), 701p, November 12-15, 1996, Ankara, Turkey. Informative technologies submit for human use, those which merely yesterday. Acquaint us with new teaching and learning procedures, which have more functions, and with more content compared to those procedures, which are already known. Distance Education procedures with interaction provide education possibilities independent from place and time; it also makes it possible to educate more people with education of higher quality in an economical manner. It opens the door to unlimited education. Realization 196 of such a symposium in such an environment was inevitable, or maybe an obligation. After 14 years of the beginning of Distance Education system the 1st International Turkish Distance Education Symposium realized in capital city of Turkey, Ankara, on 12-15 November 1996, by organizing the Directorate of Film Radio and Television Department in the name of National Ministry of Education, by aiming of the born out of these obligations is to discuses Distance Education procedures, define problems, and derive applicable results with this symposium.154 presenters from eighteen countries are joined to the symposium as Egypt (1), France (1), Georgia (3), Greece (1), India (2), Israel (6), Italy (1), KKTC (2), Norway (1), Romania (3), Sweden (1), South Africa (1), Tanzania (1), Turkey (102), Turkmenistan (2), Uganda (1), United Kingdom (5) and USA (20). The Symposium carried out in Baskent Ögretmenevi, Ankara, Turkey between the dates of 12-15, November 1996 has aimed the following main subjects to be discussed. ¾ Against multiple dimension-increasing education demand; ¾ Profiting the possibilities provided by developing the education technology. ¾ Determining the education alternatives suitable to the necessities of distance education model. ¾ Application methods. Besides this Symposium has aimed to compare the Distance Education application in Turkey with the alternatives of the applications in the world with effectiveness, productivity, interactivity and criteria of achievement and to determine the infra-structural and the legal regulations which should be made to distance the negativenesses confronted in these criteria. The theme of the symposium generally titled as "The Distance Education is the 21st Century's Education Way, during globalization of the world". The theme was broken down into five keynote areas and scientific committee to find a wide cross-section of presenters for these keynotes. The sub-aims of the symposium are; ¾ To discuss how Distance Education and information technologies can meet pressing Turkish educational needs, ¾ To compare the applications of Distance Education throughout the world to those in Turkey, 197 ¾ To determine suitable infra-structured and needed legal regulation modifications in order to provide efficient, effective and interactive Distance Education, ¾ To find ways to coordinate the policies of the sciencetechnology-industry sectors with those of education regarding Distance Education, and ¾ To develop appropriate Distance Education models for Turkey. ¾ The institutions producing the services and technology of accessing the information have found an opportunity to contribute the symposium by exhibiting their products. The declarations have been grouped under these headlines: ¾ Theoretical dimension of Distance Education, ¾ The environments of Distance Education, ¾ Application problems of Distance Education and solution, proposals, ¾ The applicability of interactive Distance Education in Turkey and ¾ The new model alternatives in the system of Distance Education. Five key-note speakers are invited by Conference Secretary from three countries. Two of whom were from Turkey two of whom were from The United States and Sweden From Turkey; "Historical Development of Distance Education" by Prof. Dr. Cevat ALKAN (Ankara University) and, "The Role of Distance Education in the Global World" by Prof. Dr. Yılmaz BÜYÜKERSEN (Anadolu University). From United States; "Quality Distance Education: A Puzzle With Many Pieces" by Prof. Dr. Chere Champel GIBSON (Wisconsin-Madison University) and, "Learning for the Future" by Prof. Dr. Marina McIsaac (Arizona State University) than, from Sweden; "The Potential and Practice of Distance Education in the Age of Information" by Prof. Dr. Börje HOLMBERG (Fern Universitat). Under these key-note speakers' subjects and, across the increasing multidimensional educational demand the scientific committee of symposium is fixed the symposium main aim as; to discusses practice methods of Distance Education by obtain benefit and determine of developing communication technology opportunities and fit necessities alternatives of model of DE for Turkey.Beside this main aim, and the sub-aims are should be listed as; to compare of the Turkish Distance Education experience and other world Distance Education experiences from point of view effectiveness, 198 interactivity, productivity and criteria of success in Distance Education, for the reason that to bring solving perspective, to legally and subconstructively regulations for Turkish Distance Education (TDE) applications and developments. 24 papers of 88 presented papers are prepared by 30 foreign scientists and 110 Turkish scientists prepare 64 papers of 88 presented papers. Additionally to these presented papers, 12 papers are presented (or took a place) as a poster form at Symposium lecture and lounge Halls' walls. Papers are categorized as listed below sub-themes; ¾ Theoretical dimension of Distance Education, ¾ Distance Education Medium, ¾ Suggestions dealing with DE application problems and its solution ways, ¾ Possibility of interactive DE in Turkey ¾ New DE models alternatives for Turkey The declarations presented papers under the headline of the theoretical dimension of Distance Education have studied historical development process of Distance Education, the arising reasons and theoretical supports. As a result of discussing the declarations presented under this headline the following results have been provided: ¾ According to the changes in the demand, the very important structural and strategically changes have been determined as to have been observed in both in the Distance Education system in Turkey and in Distance Education models applied in other countries. ¾ This change has documented that “Open education tending to satisfy individual and information demands different from the others” was added near the term of “DE tending to meet massive and standard in or motion demand, which is used in the same meaning with the DE theory. ¾ Then this change has brought to light that this development is supported by the development of communication possibilities related with sharing and informationcirculation technologies enabling individual learning. 199 ¾ The Distance Education model based on massive and standardized education principle has reached to the mass demand to satisfaction point. ¾ As a result, satisfying the individual and different information demand necessitating the working of the communication possibilities intensively has gained priority and gravity. ¾ For this reason the new model alternatives based on the principle of open education has been stated to be applied. The declarations presented under the headline of the environments of Distance Education have opened the discussions of the dimensions of new communication possibilities supporting the theoretical and conceptual expanding about which are being talked. The result arises from this discussion may be expressed as the following. ¾ The circulation and sharing alternatives increasing with the development of possibilities of making the information numerical make it possible to receive productive result and ¾ to apply the Distance Education (Distance Education or open education). ¾ The networks decrease the expenditures and make the distant the facilitating points for the necessity of circulation and sharing of information but not a barrier. ¾ The increase of the alternatives of communication tools develops DE models and increases priority and importance of the processes of the planning of communication tools and educational communication design. ¾ Realizing the processes including the design, application, application and the evaluating steps starting from the analysis of requirement for providing the satisfaction highly in developing the open education models must be an obligation. ¾ Although the model alternatives, which are applied, before not lived these processes, first give an impression as if they make it possible to provide practical behavior possibilities, such as gaining from time, then they provide a risk about productivity and are not economic for achievement. 200 The declarations presented under the headline of Application problems of Distance Education and the solution proposals have opened a discussion of new communication possibilities. The result arisen from these discussions may be expressed as the; ¾ The developments provided in communication possibilities make it possible to solve problems of distance education models, such as ‘not being economic’ and’ motivation’ which have not been removed until today. ¾ When tested in achievement, productivity and effectiveness, model alternatives developed for these possibilities have an ability to provide positive result as much as traditional education. ¾ The declarations presented under the head-line of The applicability of interactive Distance Education in Turkey and The new model alternatives in Distance Education system have been discussed with the examples of the applications in Turkey and in other countries of the world for the aim of increasing the interactivity of the new education communication possibilities about which are talked. ¾ There is a one to one correlation between the number and qualification of target student and open education model, which will be applied. However, interactivity is not after silken necessity if which model is chosen or not. ¾ The level to which communication possibilities reached makes it possible the open education models applied to be interactive. ¾ But achievement makes it an obligation to establish circulation and sharing possibilities based on information and background dealing between applicators of Distance ¾ Education as much as the students. ¾ As a result of this, the strategic decision about system, models and processes will be able to be taken correctly and the models will be able to be turned in to the applications whose productivity effectiveness and the chance of achievement are high. Academic support at the first step to the Distance Education applications applied in Turkey and in other countries. Symposium as a presentation 201 mission has and a historical activity and importance by approving that individual open education models will be able to provide more productive results from massive Distance Education alternatives. Symposium can be evaluated at the points, which are listed down; ¾ The symposium realized successfully and has become very useful for the Distance Education world especially from point of Turkish view. ¾ A Turkish distance experience has been lain down on the table from Correspondence Schools (CS) to The Faculty of Open Education (OEF) and The Open High School (OHS) by comparing with the other systems and Distance Education experiences from all corner of the world. ¾ From another perspective; Distance Education World heard a nice sound from Turkey, what is doing in Turkey, in the name of Distance Education field. ¾ Symposium has been brought experts and distance educators together on the subjects as theoretical aspects of Distance Education, media usage in Distance Education, Symposium has been pointed out that Turkish Distance Education should develop its contacts and relationships with developed DE Systems. Aim of the symposium burn out of discussing necessity on distance education, concept, procedures, applications, theories and results. Symposium will be realized yearly.

"The Integration of Teleconferencing in Distance Teaching”, Epistolo Didactica the European Journal of Distance Education, Vol: 1, 1988. Helsinki, Finland. In this paper, a new service dimension in distance education system was examined by using teleconference system and the development of this system was suggested. In the article it about distance education was mentioned concept and general applications and it was given place to operation of Anadolu University Open Education Faculty system. It was pointed out that the teleconference system, which is a new development of communication technology, is costly at the beginning but later its unit cost will decrease and it is asserted that the usage of this technology in OEF application is possible. And it was also stated that education-teaching process would carry a functional position on a more effective level because vision and double-direction communication is possible in this system. THE MOTIVATION OF STUDENTS IN DISTANCE EDUCATION SYSTEM: THE CASE OF TURKISH OPEN EDUCATION FACULTY 251- MURPHY, Karen L. "The Motivation of Students in Distance Education System: The Case of Turkish Open Education Faculty”, ICDE Bulletin, Vol: 20, pp: 26-31, The Open University, 1989, Lancashire, Milton Keynes, UK. (This Study is presented at the ICDE 14th World Conference, August 9-16 1989, Oslo, Norway). The aim of this investigation is to describe the context of distance learning by exploring students' perceptions of how they are motivated to succeed. Specifically, it explores the factors to which first-year distance learners attribute their success and failure. It tests the attribution theory of achievement motivation in a new setting with different research methodology. The research method is naturalistic inquiry qualitative data obtained through observation and interviews with a small sample of firstyear distance education students living in Eskisehir, Turkey. Demographic data 203 were obtained from a large sample of students throughout the country. Results indicate that personal, social, and educational factor combine to influence students' attributions for success and failure. TURKEY'S OPEN EDUCATION POLICY 252- MURPHY, Karen L. "Turkey's Open Education Policy”, Educational Technology Research and Development, Vol: 5, No: 37, pp: 122-125, 1989, Washington DC, USA. The Turkish experience should be viewed as a case study of model for distance education. Distance education one area where instructional technology is helping institutions to enroll large numbers of people previously inaccessible to university education, at a fraction of the cost: for the OEF, 17 percent of the cost of a conventional university education, according to one of the study of member of the OEF. With these kinds of cost savings, it is not difficult to explain the worldwide interest in such systems. Karen's account provides a close look and analysis of this promising educational program. It was not until the 1987-88 academic year, however, that articles of a more general nature began to appear. Prof. San Öz-Alp's description of the OEF was published in Turkish in a Turkish journal. Shortly afterward, the first two articles in English appeared in foreign journals (McIsaac, Murphy, & DEMIRAY, 1988, McIsaac and Köymen, 1988). The most recent addition is Tahir Özgü's article in English. This review concerns only the two articles by Öz-Alp and Özgü, both of which were published at Anadolu University in Turkey. Prof.Öz-Alp is a former dean of the OEF and is now teaching at the Faculty. Dr. Özgü is now directing the OEF program in Europe through the office in Cologne, West Germany. Student unrest in Turkey during the 1970's resulted in a university system, which by 1980 could provide places for only 22% of the citizens who wished to attend. OEF was formed in 1982-83 to provide university education chance for the pe ople who would otherwise be denied that privilege. Based on the model of the British Open University, the OEF provides instruction to students' located throughout the country, primarily 204 through print-based materials supported by broadcast television and radio, faceto-face instruction, and video education centers. This concept of education serves a variety of needs in numerous countries in the areas of basic education, higher education, vocational and technical education, teacher training, and non-formal education. In all such distance education schemes, the common ingredient is that the learner is separated in time and space from a teacher. In addition, a combination of communication technologies is frequently utilized to deliver instruction. The distance education program in Turkey demonstrates an integration of communication technologies designed to meet the needs of a growing student population. Hosted at Anadolu University, this program currently serves over 150.000 students. Its administration is carried out at the Central Administrative Bureau in Eskisehir and local at 20 bureaus throughout country. The face-to-face instructional component utilizes personnel from local universities. A QUALITATIVE OF ATTRIBUTION IN TURKISH DISTANCE EDUCATION: The Student Perspective 253- MURPHY, Karen L. "A Qualitative of Attributions in Turkish Distance Education: The Student Perspective”, (Unpublished Doctoral dissertation), University of Washington DC, 1990, USA. (Summary of this study is published in Dissertation Abstracts International, Vol: 51, p: 2998A No: 9, March 1990, USA). This study explores the achievement attributions of first-year university students in a distance education system in Turkey. The purpose of the study was to analyze the actors to which distance learners attribute their success and failure within the system, to generalize about the socio cultural influences on those attributions, and to note patterns of attributions and expectations for future success or failure in similar academic events. The theoretical focus is an application of the attribution theory of achievement. The research design included case studies of four first-year students in the Open Education Faculty (OEF) and questionnaires and interviews with 205 larger samples of students and with administrators.Because OEF students purpose their university degrees from their homes, they do not have access to the supportive classroom structures normally found in face-to-face education. The students also learn in a largely text-based system in a society that is rooted in an oral tradition. The results indicate that in general, first-year OEF students have a vocational orientation, and they use a surface approach that focuses primarily on memorizing information in their textbooks. They attribute both their success and failure primarily to a variety of conditions in their academic environments and to their own efforts; other success and failure attributions include luck and task difficulty. The experience of the first months in their new distance learning system challenges these students most of whom are employed and are typically older than first- year students in other universities- to conceive of their learning context in a different manner. As a result, they reconstruct, or reconfigure a variety of elements in the system to meet their learning and social needs. These results suggest the need to investigate more closely whether certain features of attribution theory are in fact universal across cultures based on values of interdependence particularly in cultures based on values of interdependence and group ethos. Administrators, particularly in other Moslem or developing countries, in their efforts to increase student persistence in distance education, would benefit from first-year OEF students' conceptual reconfiguration of their distance-learning environment. PATRONAGE AND AN ORAL TRADITION INFLUENCES ON ATTRIBUTIONS OF DISTANCE LEARNING IN TRADITIONAL SOCIETY 254- MURPHY, Karen. "Patronage and an Oral Tradition Influences on Attributions of Distance Learning in Traditional Society. (A Qualitative Study)”, Journal of Distance Education, Vol: 12, No: 1, pp: 27-53, 1991, Toowoomba, Australia. This paper examines socio-cultural influences on the attributions for success and failure among distance learners in Turkey. To gather data on influences 206 on student attribution, in-depth interviews and observations of four first-year distance learners were conducted. The two influences discussed. Patronage and oral tradition are central aspects of Turkish culture emanating from Islam and Ottoman Empire. It was found that, when the distance learner operated outside the traditional patronage system in a society with roots in an oral tradition, they coped with their first year in the system by reconceptualizing their roles as both students and employees. Implications of this research relate to problems inherent in applying Western-based attribution theory to distance learners in traditional cultures. SOCIO-CULTURAL CONTEXT OF TURKISH DISTANCE EDUCATION 255- MURPHY, Karen. L "Socio-cultural Context of Turkish Distance Education", presented paper at 17. Annual Conference on Distance Teaching and Learning, p: 7, August 14-16, 1991, Madison, USA. (In Addition this study is presented at 4th Annual European Correspondence Schools Seminar, 1988, Istanbul, Turkey). This paper describes the socio-cultural context of distance learning in Turkey-a culture radically different from others. Socio-cultural context of distance learning takes into account educational, personal and social factors and it influence students' methods of processing information in learning with media and ultimately their levels of achievement. DISTANCE EDUCATION AND TRAINING IN TURKEY: Path to Future 256- MURPHY, Karen L. "Distance Education and Training in Turkey: Path to Future”, presented paper at Annual Conference of Middle East Studies Association, October 30, 1992, Portland , Oregon, USA. This paper examines the scope of several Turkish Distance Education projects while providing a context for the ways that with several decades of the experience in offering education and training through correspondence or 207 distance education, Turkey has recently adopted new approaches available through technology and is actively targeting new audiences. ENHANCING INTERACTION IN TURKISH DISTANCE EDUCATION 257- MURPHY Karen L. "Enhancing Interaction in Turkish Distance Education”, Türkiye I. Uluslararası Uzaktan Öğretim Sempozyum, Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı, Film Radyo Televizyonla Eğitim Başkanlığı (FRTEB), pp:417-424, November 12-15, 1996, Ankara, Turkey. The growth of telecommunications has intensified the potential for interaction with distance learners. While this increased potential for interaction is necessary for students to receive feedback on their progress and to engage them in active and meaningful learning, interaction does not result directly from using "interactive" technologies. This paper describes the current status of interaction in Turkish distance education. Then the paper illustrates interaction in other distance education systems. It concludes an approach to incorporating instructional strategies and interactive technologies that are consistent with Turkish cultural practices and beliefs.

Open Education Faculty has begun the Internet-based education applications (IEA), which is one of the latest products of the educational technology, in order to enlarge the education it has been offering to its students. For this purpose, pilot studies have been carried out in the Open Education Faculty, Faculty of Business Administration and Faculty of Economics, which offer distance education at Anadolu University. The IEA, which will serve as an education tool in addition to book, television, radio, and academic facilitation services, will include tools such as self tests, management plays, instructive course software, and electronic book. While carrying out the IEA services in the Open Education Faculty Computer Aided Education Unit, how this service is offered in other mega universities has been also investigated. 211 An investigation was carried out among the mega universities selected according to criteria such as offering distance education, offering higher education, size (number of students), etc. Those mega universities have been evaluated based on criteria such having a web page, use of the web-page as an instruction tool, offering online education via the web page. This study allowed us to compare the IEA services offered at Anadolu University to other mega universities. Since IEA is in its preparation stage, well designed applications that are already available might be a guide for its development. AÖF ÖĞRENCİLERİNİN INTERNET ERİŞİM PROFİLLERİ 264- MUTLU, M.

Moreover, some personal information about each teacher in the sampling group was collected and the learning methods of each teacher were found out through the questionnaire. The statistical analysis of the data obtained from the tests and the questionnaire reveal the following: ¾ There is a marked increase in the knowledge of educational theory and practice of the teachers enrolled in the program. This most probably shows the effectiveness of the distance education. 238 ¾ The increase in the knowledge of educational theory and practice of the teachers is unrelated to the sex, prior educational background and teaching experience of them. ¾ The teachers enrolled in the program greatly relied on the textbooks for learning and followed a few of the television and radio programs. Furthermore, it was found that most teachers seek extra tutoring and expressed a need for faceto- face consultation. On the other hand, it was unexpectedly found that the level of achievement related to the increase in the knowledge of educational theory and practice of the teachers hasn’t changed in accordance with the effective use of the teaching media, the amount of extra tutoring they received, and the amount of need they had for face-to-face consultation. The teachers in the program wanted further distance education programs to develop and renew their knowledge of educational theory and practice either as in-service training or degree programs. It was also suggested that those who were successful in the in- service training programs should be rewarded in terms of better salaries and fringe benefits.

The radical changes, developments, and transformations experienced today in communication and information technologies have had great effects upon education as well as all the fields of social life. This has made it important, especially for distance education, to produce, accumulate, and store the educational information and to distribute it by publishing in an interactive manner. Learner-learner, learner-teacher, learner-institution, and learner– teaching material interactions are necessary for an effective teachinglearning activity in distance education. To ensure interaction in distant education, learners, teachers, and teaching materials must come together at the same platform, and auditory- visual information must be shared. Due to time, cost, ownership of TV channel, and continuous change in content, television used in distance education thoughout the world makes the 249 broadcasts in such a way that it gives almost no opportunity for synchronic interactions. It is used extensively to make recorded roadcasts because of low cost, gives little support to written materials, and does not develop sense of belonging in learners. This study deals with the possibilities and limitations of using TV interactively in distance education, particulary in Anadolu University Open Education Faculty and Open Education Schools of Ministery of Education. EVALUATING AUDIO BOOKS AS SUPPORTED COURSE MATERIALS IN DISTANCE EDUCATION: The Experiences of the Blind Learners 327- OZGUR, Aydn Z. and H. Selcuk KIRAY. Evaluating Audio Books as Supported Course Materials in Distance Education: The Experiences of the Blind Learners, Uluslararası Agria Media Konferansı, (AGRIA MEDIA 2006), 6-7 November, 2006, Hungary. Anadolu University has a technical infrastructure, well-qualified faculty, and operates in an innovative and flexible frame. It takes an initiative role to meet the needs of higher education in Turkey by providing equal opportunity not only to satisfy those who value the principle of lifelong education but also seek new information via distance education with the help of information and communication technologies. Anadolu University Open Education System utilizes all the facilities of contemporary education technology as well as traditional methods in its practices of distance education. Moreover, it provides the learners with the individualized, diversified and enriched services and the opportunities of contemporary education and communication technologies. The audio-book project is designed and based on individualized learning principles, notablly for the blind students, in the scope of Anadolu University Open Education System. This project enables the blind learners to study on their own, exempting them from the requirement of studying with someone else, and provides them with the opportunity to study any subjects in the book at their suitable convenience. 250 There are approximately 300 blind students involved in this system. There are 14 course books tailored for the blind students needs whereas more than 21 books of the process of recording are still utilized. The Faculty of School of Music and Drama of Anadolu University vocalize these course books in a radiophonic way. Each course book is numbered according to the order of units, the access to the subjects is simplified, the subjects are distinguished from each other by music and the narration is enriched via emphasizing the important sentences in the topic. By the help of these resource materials, the blind learners can be able to study more effectively, and the learning will be long lasting. The audio course books are designed and delivered to the blind students in an MP3 format. In doing so, the goal is to reach the other learners of the Open Education on the Internet. Approximately 70.000 learners have been benefiting from this service so far. Moreover, the audio books can be designed in audio CD formats and/or audiotapes based on the request from the blind learners. The aim of this study is to evaluate these audio course books based on the experiences of the blind learners. PRACTICAL COURSES IN TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAMS VIA DISTANCE EDCATION: Student Opinions Related To The Practical Courses In Anadolu University Open Education Faculty PreSchool Education Program 328- OZGUR, Aydın Z and Secil KAYA. Practical Courses in Teacher Training Programs Via Distance Edcation: Student Opinions Related To The Practical Courses In Anadolu University Open Education Faculty Pre-School Education Program, 21st Annual Conference of The Asian Association of Open Universities (AAOU), October 30, 2007, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Pre-school education period in one’s life and the experiences gained thereof have fundamental effects on learning skill and succeeding in the future life. Therefore, improving the quality of pre-school 251 education that plays such an important role in human’s life, organizing it in a most effective way and ensuring that it becomes widespread is of upmost significance. Although functional missions of pre-school education make the teacher training for pre-school functional and important, it is not possible to say that pre-school education opportunities are enough in Turkey. Also the quality and quantity level of teacher training is not as high as desired. An alternative solution to train required amount of teacher in a certain time without compromising the quality is training teachers via open and distance learning. From 2000-2001 academic year, both formal and distance education methods have been utilized in teacher training in Turkey. The Pre-school Education Program (PSEP) administered together by the Ministry of National Education and Anadolu University Open Education Faculty is a complete open education program equivalent to the formal pre-school education programs of education faculties in Turkey. In this respect, the Anadolu University Open Education Faculty PSEP is the first and unrivaled initiative that provides education for preschool teacher candidates with a distance education approach. The most important problem in an open education program is to put the theoretical knowledge simultaneously into practice. Consequently, it is inevitable that practicum courses are involved to education programs as complementary elements to theoretical lessons. It is not possible for a teacher candidate to be a teacher without practicing activities. Within the scope of this approach, 3rd and 4th classes are provided with practicum courses in the Open Education Faculty PSEP.In this study, it is aimed to determine the students’ options related to the practical courses in Anadolu University Open Education Faculty PSEP. This descriptive study is aimed at determining the current situation. A total number of 8.881 students, consisting of 5.244 3rd class and 3.637 4th class students attending the practical classes of the Open Education 252 Faculty PSEP in the academic year of 2004-2005 form the essence of this study. The sample of the study included 10% of the students. A questionnaire form, which is prepared by the researchers, is used as a data collection means. And “t” and “f” tests are used for analyzing the data. OPINIONS OF SCRIPTWRITERS ON THE DESIGN PROCESS OF WEB-BASED COURSES: An Emprical Study At Anadolu University 329- OZGUR, Aydın Z and Secil KAYA. Opinions of Scriptwriters on The Design Process of Web-Based Courses: An Emprical Study at Anadolu University, 21st Annual Conference of The Asian Association of Open Universities (AAOU), October 30, 2007, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. In an evolving world, rapid developments and the widespread use of the Internet provide opportunities to new educational media, communication, and interaction. The use of new communication technologies in education has affected the synchronous and asynchronous interaction and provided new opportunities concerning the presentation of educational materials to the students. One of these new opportunities is the Internet supported web based courses. Webs based courses increase students’ motivation and provide active participation to the learning process. But for effective use of the web-based courses, the design, production and broadcast of the course content are essential. Primarily, for a designed web based course, a detailed study must be made as regards educational science, theories of learning, pedagogy, technology, characteristics of the students, interface design, evaluation, management, support by resources, ethics and the institutional properties of the education institution. Moreover, people that take part in the design process of the materials should work cooperatively for successful and well-designed materials. In Turkey, Anadolu University (AU) enables self-paced and interactive education for the students by the Internet supported web based courses. This study aims to determine the opinions of the scriptwriters on the design process of web-based courses in AU Open Education Faculty. 253 It is believed that the findings of this study will contribute to improve the design process of web-based courses that come into prominence day by day. Opinions of scriptwriters were asked by a questionnaire concerning the design process of web-based courses in AU Open Education Faculty. SCRIPTWRITING PROCESS FOR MULTIMEDIA MATERIALS IN ANADOLU UNIVERSITY OPEN EDUCATION FACULTY 330- OZGUR, Aydın Z and Secil KAYA. Scriptwriting Process For Multimedia Materials in Anadolu University Open Education Faculty, The 20th Anniversary Conference of EADTU, November 09, 2007, Lisbon, Portugal. Although different requirements based on individual differences in learning can cause some problems in distance education, some of these problems can be solved by the opportunities offered by recent technological developments. It is accepted that every medium used in education has different communication and interactivity potential. So it is important to choose the most efficient and effective medium and nowadays according to program goals different mediums can be used together. The usages of multimedia materials, that different symbol systems can be used together, become widespread. But for effective use of these materials, the design process and well-prepared educational scripts for influential designs are very important. When the usage of multimedia materials for distance education in Turkey examined, it can be seen that one the most lasting and widespread applications put into practice at Anadolu University (AU) Open Ed The writer and editors of related course books as field experts take in part in scenario writing process in Open education Faculty. In this study, which aims to explore the script writing process for multimedia materials in AU Open Education Faculty, can help to analyze the process in detail. By this way, it is possible to determine the problems and improve the script writing process for multimedia materials and so the quality of materials. 254 WEB-BASED COURSE DESIGN: A Sample of the Bilingual TV Advertising Course in Odiseame Project 331- OZGUR, Aydın Z and Secil KAYA. Web-Based Course Design: A Sample of The Bilingual TV Advertising Course in ODISEAME Project, The 12th Cambridge International Conference on Open and Distance Learning, September 25– 28, 2007, Cambridge, UK. In a rapidly changing environment; production, operation, storage and distribution of information changes as well thanks to information and communication technologies. The Internet also enables synchronous and non-synchronous interaction between course material, students and lecturers. This led to web-based courses becoming widespread and popular in the education system especially in distance learning education. This report sets out to explain the design, delivery and application processes of the multilingual web-based “TV Advertising Course”. This report also tries to identify the problems and suggests how to take these courses forward. One of the most important components of web-based instruction is the design and production of the course contents. The process of Web-based course design includes: ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ ¾ Determining the course, Choosing the design group, Deciding on the objectives of the course, Defining the target audience, Selecting the materials to be used, Designing virtual contents, Planning the applications, Preparing types of publication or broadcasting, and Control and distribution. In this study we introduce design and application processes of the “Webbased TV Advertising Course” which are prepared within the scope of the ODISEAME (Open Distance Inter-University Synergies 255 Between Europe, Africa and Middle East) project. With reference to the problematic situations in the TV Advertising Course, it is possible to propose some recommendations for the subsequent applications of webbased TV advertising course or web-based courses in general. Marketing the courses, preconditions for participation, privileges for participants, detailed individual information about the participants, basic course materials, virtual and auditory material usage, synchronous communication and interaction and sharing experiences are some of the issues that can be improved. These courses can also be used as a supportive platform for the face-to-face traditional courses at the universities.

By creating new possibilities in the field of education, democratizing the educational process, providing lifelong education opportunities, distance education is a strategic opportunity for nations in improving the educational services. Distance education is also strategic to the 21st Century University. It provides students with access, independent of place and time to learning programs, resources, and services, including interaction among faculty and students through synchronous and asynchronous technologies.As a developing country with considerable economic and cultural potential, education is vitally important issue for Turkey. Parallel to the population growth, the demand for all types of education is increasing whereas the resources such as schools and teachers are limited and not possible to reach to adequate levels in short period of time. Therefore it seems quite difficult for Turkey. To achieve an overall education level is required by a modern society using conventional educational approaches and techniques. Anadolu University Open Education System is the major attempt in Turkey. In integrating the distance education approaches with national education system. Since the involvement to distance education in 1982 as a dual University, the institution contributed more than 190 000 bachelor and pre-bachelor graduates to the country. Although considered as one of the mega universities of the world Anadolu University is also least known institution among the similar institutions.

Industrial Engineerıng Aspects Of Distance Education Management: Cases From Anadolu University Open Education Faculty, Middle East Technical University Department of Industrial Engineering Seminar, March 26, 2004, Ankara, Turkey. Distance Education is instructional delivery that does not constrain the student to be physically present in the same location as the instructor. Historically, Distance Education (DE) meant correspondence study. Today, audio, video, and computer technologies are more common delivery modes. The Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW) have made the process of obtaining an education without regard to time or location easier for the student. Higher Education institutions are currently exploring the possibility and feasibility of using distance education to meet educational and training needs. However traditional educational institutions must reassess their 263 organization, resources and functioning in order to benefit from the opportunities of new technologies as well as face the challenges issued by them. This seminar aims to identify the IE approaches that will support the administrators of DE institutions in their decision making process. After a brief introduction to the DE concepts and technologies, the significance of Open and Distance Learning in the Turkish Education system will be evaluated. The educational institutions which are special case of service production systems will be analyzed under the Production and Operations Management (POM) framework and relevant decision problems will be explored. Cases from Anadolu University Open Education system will be highlighted.

In designing distance education programs depending on the study areas and the target population, different requirements under varying criteria creates a multi criteria decision making environment. Therefore, decision makers are faced an initial evaluation of different implementation models. The aim of this study is to evaluate distance education implementation models by using a multi criteria decision making tool, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for the English Language Teacher Training (ELTT) Program at Anadolu University Open Education Faculty. The decision problem is the determination of the share of different delivery modes in the implementation model. The hierarchical structure which includes tangible and intangible factors is constructed working cooperatively with the administrators and instructors of the program. The study suggests a hierarchical approach with four levels including tangible and intangible criteria to evaluate different delivery modes in the distance education implementation model under the goal of determination of most appropriate one for ELTT. Proposed model consists of six main criteria that have also sub criteria: cost, access, staff, interaction, benefit and media of instruction. The alternatives are determined as videoconference based, web based and traditional (face-to-face) education based implementation models. The data of this study are obtained from the judgments of three specialists of ELTT. AHP with group decision making is applied to the problem by taking geometric means of these judgments. Using group decision making allows us to include of different opinions in a unique model. 265 TELEVİZYON ÖĞRETMENLİĞİ 347- OZSOY, Yahya and Dursun GOKDAG.

DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS: A Case Study Of Faculty of Open Education 352- OZTURK Zehra. Kamışlı, Database Management Systems: A Case Study of Faculty of Open Education, YA/EM’2004 Yöneylem Araştırması/Endüstri Mühendisliği XXIV. Ulusal Kongresi, 16–18 Haziran 2004, Çukurova Üniversitesi, Adana, Türkiye. This study presents a database management system developed for AOF course books. Its rationale is based on the development of a database application that share data and operations through a database. It supports faculty’s manipulation and retrieval of book’s data. In order to organize large amounts of data (book’s names, ISBN numbers, number printed; authors’ names, and addresses, etc.) similar user interfaces are developed for different types of users. In addition, they can create special reports. It also encourages users who have no previous programming experience. The advantages of this database study are: ¾ Reducing data redundancy: Because all information is stored in one place (the database), data redundancy is greatly reduced. ¾ Ensuring data integrity: The integrity of information in a database is much higher than in file management systems. This is true because only one copy of information is stored, which requires only one change if necessary. ¾ Ensuring data security: Database management software can allow information access to only those people who actually need it. Although all the information is stored in one place, this helps ensure the only the right people see the right information. For example, one 269 form printing department could look at, but not change, information relating to the price of royalties.

The history of Anadolu University can be traced back to the establishment of the Institute of Higher Economics and the School of Trade back in 1958. Currently, the university comprises of 11 faculties, 8 vocational schools, and one state conservatory. With the affiliation of the Open Education Faculty, 281 which is based on a Distance Learning principle, Anadolu University started to introduce innovations to the Turkish higher education system in 1982. Nowadays, where Distance Learning got its place as an alternative educational system in both developed and developing countries, the need and importance to accommodate this system in the educational sector in Turkey has been clearly understood. In this study, Anadolu University, Open Education Faculty (OEF) English Language Teaching B.A. Program will discuss.

The developments and innovations in technology in 21st century have also spread to education as well as to many other fields. Although traditional face-to-face education is still the most widely used system, technological advancements, especially the use of Internet has affected distance education systems greatly. As it is known Anadolu University Open Education Faculty is a higher education institute that was established in 1982. Currently, the faculty offers 23 AD (Associate Degree) and 2 BA (Bachelor of Art) programs through distance education. One of the BA programs that is offered within the Open Education Faculty is English Language Teaching program. This program aims to train students as English teachers. In accordance with the protocol signed with the Ministry of National Education (February 28, 2000), the courses in the first two years are face-to-face while in the last two years through distance education. The program is unique in that there are no other programs, which train English teachers through distance education. In this program, one of the 282 fourth year courses, School Experience and Teaching Practice, is of special importance for two reasons. First, School Experience and Teaching Practice course is a course, which requires students to practice teach English in primary and secondary schools. Second, because the last two years of the program is taught through distance education and students can be anywhere in Turkey, they could do their practice teaching anywhere in Turkey. Thus, Open Education Faculty organizes, for each student based on his/her reported address, a school where the student will do his/her practice teaching. The organization model that is used to assign students to schools in their city of residence is one that has no other examples. Thus, the aim of this paper is to present the organization model that was utilized first in the 2003-2004, and secondly in the 2004-2005 academic year.

Recent advancements in the Internet technology has made distance education more preferable among other learning platforms. In addition to distance education providers, many traditional face-to-face education institutions now utilize blended learning models where by they offer distance courses within their education system. Blended learning is also utilized in traditional in-class educational activities by using one or more information and communication technologies (Internet, CD-Rom, TV, etc.). Distance Program in English Language Teaching offered by Open Education Faculty of Anadolu University, is a 4year BA degree program. It is based on blended learning model where by the first two years is partly face-to-face and the last two years are through distance education. 283 The program is equivalent to other face-to-face English Language Teaching Programs offered by other universities in Turkey. The program is unique in terms of its blended learning and delivery methods. Therefore Distance Program in English Language Teaching can be considered as a model for other English language teacher training programs. In this paper, developments in the Distance Program in English Language Teaching based on blended learning model in the past six years and plans for the future are discussed.

All students have to take exams three times a year in the central exam organization. Since there are 178 courses available in all programs, the exam preparation is quite complex and cumbersome. In order to cope with such a challenge, a department, called Exam Preparation and Research Center, was established in 1996. The errors encountered in exams of 1996 led to the decision of developing a software system order to automate test preparation process and minimize unintentional human errors. In the first year, software errors were eliminated and new functionality was kept on added.The system was evolved to a stage that it accepted questions from the user and test books were printed out on the other hand. Page formatting, punctuation error detection, simple grammar checking, syntax error corrections, shuffling of questions in test groups are handled by the system. It has been reported that the number of human errors in questions has been significantly decreased after the introduction of the system. In June 1997, a statistical tool measuring the quality (difficulty level, separation power) of questions was integrated into the system. As a post-exam tool, data obtained from the module gives a quantitative feedback to question writers. AÇIKÖĞRETİM ÖĞRENCİ DESTEK SİSTEMİ 379- SENEL, Hakan and Akif KUTLU.

Educational needs are increasing in Turkey day by day in a great and large dimension as being in developing countries. But economical sources are very limited for educational area again as being in other countries. So that one of the important reasons that establishing of distance education depends for to solve this education's problem. Before establishing the Faculty of Open Education in 1982, of course, some distance education models were applying, but all of them were fail. There were many reasons for this failure of these models as political, economical or educational planning. The Faculty of Open Education (OEF) and Turkish society had an advantage by these earlier experiments for to apply a distance education with a new approach or philosophic in due course. By this way, new distance education 299 model had seen as respectful and logical way to solve Turkish educational problems. So, the OEF started to play an important role in supplying the educational demands in Turkey. Discusses and arguments about OEF far away that this system will not be unsuccessful; now the problem is how the limited quality would improve. Placement, acceptability and contingency of this system took very short time and credit of the OEF increased from year to year.Most of time increasing contingency had been done without the possibilities and aim. General quality, generally, is in contradiction with the quantity in addition; improving quality requires substantial sources. But, OEF tries to give services by the view; counseling Faculty of Management has some difficulties. At the same time, improving quality requires mental source too. In other words suitable knowledge and know-how are important input to improve quality. In this presentation will discuss that how the quality circles and total quality management contribute to improve efficiently of the OEF services.

WHAT DO LEARNERS AND INSTRUCTORS OF ONLINE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS THINK ABOUT ETHICS IN ELEARNING ?: A Case Study From Anadolu University 415- TOPRAK, Elif., Berrin OZKANAL, Secil KAYA and Sinan AYDIN, What Do Learners and Instructors of Online Learning Environments Think About Ethics in e-Learning ?: A Case 309 Study From Anadolu Unıversity, EADTU's 20th Anniversary Conference, 8-9 November 2007, Lisbon, Portugal. Ethics in education means, granting educational opportunities to anyone on equal basis; disregarding nationality, gender, ideological differences or mental/physical disabilities. Through this perspective, online learning environments have an important potential, owing to their nature to reach international audiences. Considering the number and diversity of students in e-Learning environments, policies balancing different expectations and studying how the participants perceive ethics in online learning environments are important. During online courses, like in the face-to-face classes; students have to show respect to their instructors and course mates. Taking ethical principles into consideration in e-Learning leads to (1) respect and tolerance among participants, (2) civil relations and interaction based on predetermined rules. Starting with this argument, the purpose of this study is to analyze the opinions of Anadolu University s Distance English Language Teachers Training (DELTT) Program instructors and 3rd - 4th year students that take online courses. In line with the purpose of the study, (1) learner diversity (2) behavioral and legal regulations are parameters chosen for surveying the opinions of instructors and learners about ethical issues in the online learning environment they participate. Following the statistical analysis on survey results, the correlation between the opinions of the students and the instructors, as regards ethics in online learning environments are discussed.

The printed course materials are not the same in conventional and distance education systems. Differentiation of the printed course materials in both systems comes from point of understanding, reading and perception of view. 310 As known, the printed course materials are the major educational component at distance education systems. And also, the most important features of these printed course materials are visual design and readability. Readability concept explains that helping every element in printed material should be functional for easily to reading, understanding and perception by readers or students. So that visual designing is very important at distance education printed course materials. In this dissertation investigates the visual designing of the Open education Faculty's printed course materials theoretically and empirically. Study consists of six chapters. The first three chapters explain that distance education and importance of printed course materials in teaching or learning. Fourth chapter gives brief information about the structure of the applied questionnaire and survey. At the survey, printed course materials searched from point of visual designing view, which are General Accounting, Behavioral Science, General Mathematics, Basic Programming and Computer, Economy of Turkey, Business Administration, Statistic and Turkish Tax Law. The questionnaire applied to the student at the end of make-up exam. Here listed findings of the survey are: ¾ The printed course materials should be designed and changed according to daily conditions, ¾ Visualization should be realized by editor, author, designer and printer's common decision, not only one or two of them, ¾ Page design must be quite comfortable, ¾ Visual elements must be colored as possible.

MANAGERIAL ISSUES IN OPEN AND DISTANCE EDUCATION ORGANIZATIONS IN TRANSITION: A Need for Systematic Approach 419- ULUKAN, Cemil. Manegerial Issues in Open and Distance Education Organizations in Transition: A Need for Systematic Approach, Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education- 312 TOJDE, April 2005, ISSN 1302-6488 Volume: 6 Number: 2, Eskisehir, Turkey. Among the most common issues addressed in the educational literature of recent years have been change and transformation . In the literature on open and distance education (ODE), there has been a marked tendency to address change related issues separately. However, ODE leaders should consider all of the relevant organizational aspects during the change process in order to achieve successful transition. This paper aims to contribute to a better understanding of what issues should be addressed during the transition process in order to realize a more effective and more competitive ODE organization. It attempts to ensure that all of the major aspects of organizational domains are taken into consideration more systematically in a system-wide transition process. MAKING A MEGA UNIVERSITY MORE INTERNATIONAL: Opportunities and Challenges 420- ULUKAN, Cemil. Making a Mega University More International: Opportunities and Challenges, EADTU's 20th Anniversary Conference, November 8-9, 2007, Lisbon, Portugal. Confluence of developments in information and communication technologies (ICTs), increases in computer ownership, affordable communication fees, and globalization has rendered online learning to be very popular worldwide. Equipped with minimum requirements, more and more people now have access to educational opportunities through online programs, even if they do not have these opportunities in their countries. Thousands of various types of degree, certificate or credit courses offered by various organizations are available via the Web. However, being available to the entire world does not mean that your programs are properly internationalized. Many educational institutions do not value the differences in cultures, language, learning practices, and local educational needs. Recognition of these differences is of great importance for creating and maintaining real international programs.Anadolu University of Turkey is one of so called ‘mega universities’, with more than one million enrolled students. Even though the university has been involving international 313 projects so far, there seems to be much more potentials ahead in the international educational context. The University, with 25 years of experience in open and distance education, can easily take part in international collaborations to provide online learning through innovative programs. The aim of the paper is to discuss the opportunities and challenges associated with involving Anadolu University in international educational partnerships. In other words, roles and functions that Anadolu University can assume towards international collaborations in appropriate business models will be studied, keeping pedagogical, technological, and managerial issues around online learning in mind. TÜRKİYE’DE ULUSAL EĞİTİM TELEVİZYONU KANALININ OLUŞTURULMASININ GEREKÇELERİ 421- ULUTAK, Nazmi.

Yılı Nedeniyle Uluslararası Katılımlı Açık ve Uzaktan Eğitim Sempozyumu. Anadolu University, May 2325, 2002, Eskisehir, Turkey. Today many countries in the world are using open and distance education. By means of their own conditions, they are using different tools and technologies in different importance. While making these strategies, the most important factor for developing countries, is the cost of these educational tools for the students. China, Iran and other countries that have mega-universities give an importance to their open and distance education by using television broadcasting. New technologies like computer based elearning and etc. have more cost for the students. In Turkey, %75 of the students who make their higher education degrees by open and distance education are coming from lower income group: for this reason television broadcasting has an important place in open and distance education. Today there are some problems in educational television broadcasting in Turkey. To overcome this problems, national educational television channel must be establish in Turkey. 314 FRONT-END ANALYSIS OF AN ONLINE LANGUAGE PROGRAM 422- ULUTAK, Nazmi. Front-end Analysis of an Online Language Program, EADTU 2007 Conference, November 8-9, Lisbon, 2007, Portugal. This presentation and associated paper are a part of an initiative that intended to offer Turkish Language Education to anybody interested in. As usual to any instructional project, the initiative has started with detailed front-end analyses. This paper covers the results of these analyses that focused on following parameters: ¾ to what extend there is a need for Turkish language learning among Turkish-oriented and other European citizens, and ¾ to what extend use of open and distance learning might be a solution to meet this need. A series of semi-structured interviews in 7 European countries and a survey were conducted to collect data. The findings of the research revealed that Turkish language education via distance education technology would be an appropriate application considering the needs of each generation and be demanded largely. Furthermore, it was documented that the lack of Turkish language education as mother tongue made learning European languages difficult for Turkish population. As a consequence of these results, Anadolu University of Turkey is in the process of developing an online Turkish Language Education program. AVRUPA’DA TÜRKÇE “İKİNCİ DİL” ÖĞRETİMİ ARAŞTIRMASI 423- ULUTAK, Nazmi ve Diğerleri. Avrupa’da Türkçe “İkinci Dil” Öğretimi Araştırması [Turkish in Europe: Research on “Second Language” Teaching], T.C. Anadolu Üniversitesi Yayınları; No: 1719, Proje No: 050734, Anadolu Üniversitesi, 2007, Eskişehir, Türkiye. This report reflects the findings of a needs analysis process for a Turkish Language Teaching Project carried out in seven European countires (Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Holland, England, France, and Norvay) by 315 12 researchers from Open Education, Communication, and Literature Faculties/Schools. In regards to the findings of the current study and the results of previous studies in the field, the need of learning Turkish as a second language in Europe is based on two main reasons: One is that the Europeans’ need to communicate with the Turks living in Europe, and the second is that the Erupeans’ need to communicate with the Turks in Turkey. First one is derived due to the commonly felt problems of adaptation, sociocultural dialog, internal harmony, and diminishing level of quality in local and national public services regarding security problems. In addition to the problems in European economy, socio-cultural movements fostered by the establishment of the European Union increased communicational-social conflicts with minorities. Europeans’ need to communicate with the Turks living in Turkey is affected by various issues including Turkey’s economic appeal after economic problems observed in Europe; Turkey’s geographical appeal particularly in Scandinavian countries affected by global warming and some other natural problems; Turkey’s strategic location in between Europe and Middle East, and etc. Due to the two main reasons mentioned above, the need for Europeans to learn Turkish as a second language is more intense, common, and diversified compared to the past. Today Turkey tends to open to the world in terms of culture, economy, science, politics, and technology at a pace beyond any comparison with the past. Therefore, it is constantly evaluating opportunities for international cooperation. As regards to the globalization, Turkey also should be able to have impact on others, too. To achieve this, educational institutions need to expand their activities beyond national borders. Turkey’s progress in this area pushes distance education institutions to keep the same track. All these recent developments promoted the need of learning Turkish as a second language by Europeans in an environment not restricted by location, time or other constraints. Open and distance learning environments emerge as the most efficient, effective and appealing option, supported by the finding of the study. 316 B-ÖĞRENME (HARMANLANMIŞ-KARMA ÖĞRENME ORTAMI) VE UYGULAMA ÖRNEKLERİ 424- UNAL, Dilşat Peker.

Anadolu Üniversitesi Bilgi Yönetimi Önlisans Programı’nın Eleştirel Düşünme Açısından İncelenmesi [Evaluation of Information Management Vocational Program of Anadolu University From The Perspective of Critical Thinking], Anadolu Üniversitesi, Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, unpublished PhD thesis, 2007, Eskişehir, Türkiye. General objective of this study is to evaluate Information Management Vocational Program (IMVP) offered fully online by Anadolu University using a critical thinking perspective. In parallel to this objective, the structure of the units of the courses in the program, utilization of program facilities by students, contribution of the academic facilitators and program facilities affecting critical thinking development are determined using the perspectives and experiences of the academic facilitators and subject experts of the program. 317 The model of this descriptive research is a case study including the unit structure analysis of the courses, and the views and experiences of the subject experts and academic facilitators regarding the structure, design and student interaction of the courses from the critical thinking perspective. In order to determine the structure of the courses, the 2nd, 12th and 16th units of "Operating System" course were chosen and document analysis method was used. In determining the views and experiences of the experts and facilitators, the most experienced facilitators of the eleven courses were interviewed using semi-structured interview technique. Furthermore, the archive documents such as the official website and the brochures of the program and presentations of the subject experts were used in the study. Analysis of the units are done using the codes based on Bloom`s Taxonomy. The instructional objectives and drills of the units were analyzed using a checklist including knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation levels of Bloom`s Taxonomy. Analysis of the views of the facilitators and subject experts were done according to the interview coding form. When IMPV is evaluated in perspective of critical thinking, the program seems insufficient in the following dimensions: the level of units delivered online, the knowledge of facilitators regarding online learning, the effectiveness of facilitators during learning process, the interaction between students and facilitators, homework assignments and online collaborative learning. Implementation of the program in these dimensions cannot meet with the requirements for the development of critical thinking skills. The comparison of the findings of the study and the related literature review reveals that offering various online learning environment and interaction facilities are not sufficient to acquire critical thinking skills. For that reason, appropriate instruction design and strategies should be put on practice and the available infrastructure should be utilized during the learning process in IMVP.

The aim of this study is to contribute to the development of nursing training programs at contemporary standards by establishing the opinions of Anatolian University Open Education Faculty Nursing twoyears training program students and clinical trainers on textbooks, TV programs and application procedures. Interviewing 190 nursing undergraduate student and 15 clinical trainers who have competed there five years in the hospitals of Ankara, in 1994-1995, carried out the investigation. The data were collected by interview in the investigation performed by using descriptive method. The interview from consists of 76 items on individual information, general status, textbooks, TV programs and clinical application. The same interview is used for both students and trainers. The rating with five points scale was used in the interview in the analysis of the obtained data; frequency, percentile and median were calculated. According to the results of the investigation, the sampled students consist of clinical nurses below 25 and among 30 ages. The majority stated that they do not have information on the faculty and that they participated in this program in order to increase their retirement pension and official status and to graduate from a university while working at the same time. The majority of the students assent that the clinical application period is adequate the clinical trainers do not agree with them.

KEEPING TRACK OF COURSE DESIGN: Anadolu University Case 442- YAPICIOGLU, Haluk. Keeping Track of Course Design: Anadolu University Case, Proceedings of the 2004 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference Educating Engineering for the Informational Age Southeastern Section Annual Meeting, Auburn University, Auburn, Alabama 2 April 4–6, 2004, USA. Anadolu University with its Open Education Faculty is one of the largest universities in terms of number of students in the world. Due to the huge number of its students (nearly 450,000) most of the technologies used are one-way and asynchronous. In this setting, students are expected to study by themselves. Because of this, the design process of course materials is an important issue. In this study, a database management system (DBMS) is proposed and designed to support the course design process and record, 328 store and make cost data generated during this process ready for future use. Application of the proposed system is discussed through an example. It is shown that since record keeping is more accurate with the help of proposed DBMS, information generated using DBMS is more reliable. By obtaining more reliable and accurate data, cost projections about future projects would become more realistic. Additionally, DBMS can be used for screening ongoing projects in terms of resources allocated and used. Lastly, collected data can be used as a reference for recruitment of new personnel and investment decisions.

Handan and M. Emin MUTLU. InternetSupported Learning Model in Distance ELT Program at Anadolu University, 9th METU International ELT Convention, Middle East Technical University, 2006, Ankara, Turkey. This paper will present the Internet supported learning model utilized in the Distance English Language Teaching (DELT) Program within the open education system at Anadolu University. The DELT Program is a blended program in that it has both face-to-face and distance education components. The first two years are face-to-face while the last two years are through distance education. The distance education component in the last two years consists of courses which provide students with methodological and theoretical background essential for language teachers. 331 The main instructional materials are textbooks and study guides. As there are no instructors in the distance education component, students are provided with internet support which is designed to supplement the course books. The internet support system was first implemented in the 2004-2005 academic year for the 10 courses in the last two years. The internet support system is designed to guide students work through the textbooks so that they are able to understand the material better. Thus, it consists of interactive material, discussion boards which provide students with asynchronous academic advising and synchronous technical support. For each of the 10 courses, the materials are presented as separate units, released weekly. Each unit contains animations, audios, tasks students need to do, trial exams, and exercises. Over 100 experts from different fields have worked for approximately 8 months in designing the internet support. The responses of students to the internet support are positive; 4200 out of 5450 students have used the internet support between December 2004 and September 2005.

It was aimed at finding out the extent at which students benefit from the service provided and how they perceive the training, thus proposing solutions regarding subjects that are challenging to them. Therefore, it is intended to propose recommendations that will help the program be more effective and efficient on the basis of gathered data. 332 These are the main findings of the study: The students think that all of the services, which have been given by AOF, are useful and productive with the high rate. Although Students have convenient chance of the having and using of technology, they haven’t been taking advantage of practises which necesitate using technology as TV programmes or e-portal of AOF. The majority of the students haven’t been studying by planning. Students have been studying their lessons by reading the units of their books. The majority of the students have been using some helping sources and the majority of the sources are books. It can be understand by controlling the answers’ analysis of “preference reasons and aims of the programme”, students have chosen this programme for the aim of being promoted and having beter personel affairs owing to the opportunities of registration without an exam and having university degree. Students think that Ocupational Trainning Programme for the Police Force in Anadolu University Open Education Faculty has reached the target and it has contributed the students to change their goals by getting the habits of reading. The majority of the students want that Ocupational Traınnıng Programme for the Polıce Force ın Anadolu Unıversıty Open Education Faculty is programmed at the level of licence. Students have been having difficulty mostly about foreign language lesson among the other lessons and excepting the solution for their problems. It is expected that students, staff and academicians’ perception of the program can be improved and contribution can be made to arranging of the program content in the light of gathered data as a consequence of the research.

On The Power Of Internet-Based Distant Education, Journal of Science, February 2003, Turkish Military Academy Press, No: 13, Ankara, Turkey. Although Internet based distant education systems have developed a lot and had many applications, a question comes to mind: Is distant education beneficial enough so that we should broaden its coverage in general learning system or should we just accept it as a fantasy? This question is not an easy one to answer as it has been affected by many different realities. However, we can answer this question for Turkey, because our statistical findings reveal that there are many things we should do, to broaden its coverage, because it is really of great importance. Although the target of distant education is very broad in Turkey, due to many factors, which have been explained in the paper thoroughly, it has not achieved its goal of reaching to many students from all over the country using the principles of the Internet based distant education.
