    Applying social networks to engineering education
    (WILEY, 2018) DOĞAN, BUKET; Dogan, Buket; Demir, Onder; Ulku, Eyup E.
    Social networking sites (SNSs) are a popular Internet-based means for users to communicate and interact with each other. Although they have caught the attention of many researchers and are already being used as educational tools, very few studies have investigated the effects of using an SNS in engineering education. This study, therefore, aims to analyze the effects of using the Edmodo platform as a teaching and learning support tool on students' academic and practical performance in the Introduction to Information Technology and Algorithms course, as well as in the Computer Programming course they took in the following semester. It also considers the students' opinions about the Edmodo system. For this study, a total of 62 students studying in the Electrical and Electronics Engineering Department during the 2016-2017 fall semester were divided into two equally sized groups. The control group underwent a traditional face-to-face education, whereas the experimental group augmented this using the Edmodo system. A mixed-methods approach with a post-test-only control group design was used: quantitative data were obtained from student tests, together with qualitative data from follow-up interviews. The students' grades were analyzed using Student's t-test and correlation analysis, showing that the experimental group performed better in their academic and laboratory assessments and that there was a moderately positive relationship between the post-test results and performance in the subsequent Computer Programming course.

    Municipal solid waste management: A case study utilizing DES and GIS
    (2023-10-02) ÇALIŞ USLU, BANU; DOĞAN, BUKET; ÜLKÜ, EYÜP EMRE; Çaliş Uslu B., Kerçek V. A., Şahin E., Perera T., Doğan B., Ülkü E. E.
    This research aims to compare two well-known solution methodologies, namely Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Discrete Event Simulation (DES), which are used to design, analyze, and optimize the solid waste management system based on the locations of the garbage bins. A significant finding of the study was that the application of the simulation methodology for a geographical area of a size of 278km2was challenging in that the addition of the geographical conditions to the developed model proved to be time-consuming. On the other hand, the simulation model that was developed without adding geographical conditions revealed that the number of bins could be reduced by 60.3% depending on the population size and garbage density. However, this model could not be implemented since the required walking distance was higher than 75 m, which is greater than the distance the residents could be reasonably expected to travel to reach a bin. Thus, using a cutoff value of 75 m, the total number of bins can be reduced by 30% on average with regard to the result obtained from the GIS-based solution. This can lead to an annual cost reduction of 93.706 € on average in the collection process and carbon dioxide release reduction of 18% on average.
