Organizational Unit
Chemical Engineering
(2010)
Established in 2010, and aiming to train the students with the capacity to meet the demands of the 21st Century, the Chemical Engineering Department provides a sound chemistry background through intense coursework and laboratory practices, along with fundamental courses such as Physics and Mathematics within the freshman and sophomore years, following preparatory English courses.In the final two years of the program, engineering courses are offered with laboratory practice and state-of-the-art simulation programs, combining theory with practice.
Organizational Unit
Software Engineering
(2005)
Department of Software Engineering was founded in 2005 as the first department in Ankara in Software Engineering. The recent developments in current technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Big Data, and Blockchains, have placed Software Engineering among the top professions of today, and the future. The academic and research activities in the department are pursued with qualified faculty at Undergraduate, Graduate and Doctorate Degree levels. Our University is one of the two universities offering a Doctorate-level program in this field. In addition to focusing on the basic phases of software (analysis, design, development, testing) and relevant methodologies in detail, our department offers education in various areas of expertise, such as Object-oriented Analysis and Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Software Quality Assurance, Software Requirement Engineering, Software Design and Architecture, Software Project Management, Software Testing and Model-Driven Software Development. The curriculum of our Department is catered to graduate individuals who are prepared to take part in any phase of software development of large-scale software in line with the requirements of the software sector. Department of Software Engineering is accredited by MÜDEK (Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Programs) until September 30th, 2021, and has been granted the EUR-ACE label that is valid in Europe. This label provides our graduates with a vital head-start to be admitted to graduate-level programs, and into working environments in European Union countries. The Big Data and Cloud Computing Laboratory, as well as MobiLab where mobile applications are developed, SimLAB, the simulation laboratory for Medical Computing, and software education laboratories of the department are equipped with various software tools and hardware to enable our students to use state-of-the-art software technologies. Our graduates are employed in software and R&D companies (Technoparks), national/international institutions developing or utilizing software technologies (such as banks, healthcare institutions, the Information Technologies departments of private and public institutions, telecommunication companies, TÜİK, SPK, BDDK, EPDK, RK, or universities), and research institutions such TÜBİTAK.

Abstract

Web-Based Instruction (WBI) has become popular and provides several educational alternatives. But due to lack of face-to-face communication, it is crucial that WBI provide interactivity and motivation for students. This paper introduces Criteria for Developing Web-Based Instruction that evaluates interactivity and motivation for a WBI chemistry course. The Criteria are comprehensive and objective so that it can be used to evaluate any WBI course. Based on the Criteria, the paper selects a WBI site and implements it to first year students. The result according to the criteria mentioned in the paper.

Description

ÖZ: Tabanlı eğitim giderek daha popüler olmakta ve birçok eğitim alternatifi sunmaktadır. Ancak, yüz yüze iletişim eksikliği nedeniyle Wen-tabanli eğitimde etkileşim ve motivasyonun sunulması kritik bir unsur olmaktadır. Bu çalışma Web tabanlı eğitim sistemlerinin geliştirilmesi konusunda dikkat edilmesi gereken bazı kriterleri sunmaktadır ve bu kriterleri kimya dersleri için hazırlanmış olan bir siteyi etkileşim ve motivasyon açısından inceleyerek değerlendirmektedir. Bu kriterler kapsamlı ve tarafsız olarak herhangi bir web-tabanlı eğitim sisteminin değerlendirilebilmesi amacıyla geliştirilmiştir. Bu kriterlere temel olması amacıyla, web-tabanlı eğitim sitesinin birinci sınıf mühendislik öğrencileri tarafından kullanılması sağlanmıştır. Bu kriterlere yönelik olarak çalışmanın sonuçları bu araştırmada sunulmaktadır.
