Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Student participation in Bologna Process: a case study from Turkey(Fac Teacher Education, 2014) Kahraman, Z. Ezgi; Sakarya, A. Orcun; 50343; 19342Bologna Process studies in Cankaya University's Interior Architecture Department (INAR), Turkey have been initiated in 2008. The goal of this study is to explore students' perceptions about the new programme outcomes framed with the Turkish Higher Education Qualifications Framework and to provide a set of guidelines for the Bologna Process to be implemented. A questionnaire including semi-structured questions is conducted in the data collection process. Content analysis method is used in order to examine students' perceptual outcomes. The findings of the study display that students' perceptions underline the importance of the acquisition of knowledge, skills and competences in social, economic and managerial dimensions of the professional life. Results also reveal the need of students for the acquisition and use of communicative, collaborative and interdisciplinary aspects of the profession and their expectations on both theoretical and practical contents of INAR courses. Furthermore, this study which mainly followed a student-cantered approach concluded that it is also possible to generalize new programme outcomes through the active participation of students.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Subjective evaluations of Syrian refugees on residential satisfaction: an exploratory study in an ethnic enclave in Turkey(Springer, 2022) Haliloglu Kahraman, Z. Ezgi; 50343Hosting the world's largest Syrian refugee population, Turkey has not introduced a housing policy to address permanently the housing needs of Syrian urban refugees. The aim of this exploratory study, focusing on a case study in a Syrian ethnic enclave in Ankara, was to provide insights into Syrians' housing conditions and needs while further seeking to establish from their perspectives the determinants of their residential satisfaction (RS). Face-to-face in-depth interviews with 38 Syrian refugees uncovered perceptions and experiences of the resident, dwelling and neighborhood components of RS. The content analysis revealed perceptual attributes of RS, while descriptive statistics displayed the frequencies of citation and the mean RS scores. The study found that Syrians were able to sustain cultural values, identity and social relations through a combination of their own self-settlement strategies and certain neighborhood characteristics, including access to labor and housing markets, aid/subsidies and mosques, low cost of living, the existence of co-ethnics, solidarity networks and peaceful relations with natives, and living in an ethnic enclave. This resulted in RS, which was positively influenced by adaptations made inside/outside the dwelling, detached houses with yards providing privacy, additional housework and socialization space, and large, comfortable, newly-built flats. Conversely, dissatisfaction resulted from the high percentage of rent in the family budget, the existence of unofficial realtors, security problems including the decrease in police services following the departure of Turkish residents, deterioration in dwellings, and the risk of demolitions in the neighborhood's renewal process. Most of the neighborhood and dwelling features in the field met Syrians' needs and aspirations, even to the extent that satisfaction levels exceeded expectations.
