Conference Object E-Calculus at Iztech(Springer Verlag, 2006) Ufuktepe, Ünal; Ufuktepe, Günnur; Deniz, Aslı; Dündar, VeliIn today's new economy, characterized by industrial revolutions, globalization and information technology changes traditional classroom and teaching methods. Calculus is the basic course for the fresher at university. Mathematics has a negative development at universities and colleges. The number of students taking mathematics courses and those successfully passing the exams are rapidly decreasing. To overturn this negative development, it may be necessary to teach in a different way. This is where new technology could play an important role. We create a web browser environment by using the webMathematica, which is a new technology based on Java Server Page, Tomcat and Mathematica, in learning calculus. The modules consist of topic modules linked with case study modules, to help learn calculus and see it in context. The aim of our project is to use new technology to present mathematics on the web, and create a pilot course for students and teachers available free on the web. The heart of our approach is the development of mathematical power: understanding, using, and appreciating mathematics. Students can reach any documents for calculus and solve their problems with webMathematica to check whether their results are correct or not. It is possible to reach our page at the following URL address: http://galois.iyte.edu.tr/calculus.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1The Method of Policy Capturing for the Transportation Disadvantaged: Simulation Results(WITPress, 2003) Duvarcı, Yavuz; Gür, GüneşIn the previous study called "A Modelling Approach for the Transportation Disadvantaged", which was an experimental one calibrated in a small town in Turkey, it was observed that an integrated TPM for the disadvantaged category was probable, and the findings were observable at all stages of the sequential modelling, however, with slight differences compared to the Normal model's results. Following the previous one, this study shows the method of how "policy capturing" could be possible on the basis of these differences, which aims to help improve the adverse conditions of the disadvantaged. The method is sort of category analysis based on the cluster analysis results, since it is clearly verified that the "disadvantage indices" identified as the single-disadvantage groups match with the values of cluster centres. Using TRANUS software, three simulations are run for three dimensions of disadvantage: socio-economic (categorical), spatial and the positional. The simulation results, evaluated from different criteria, showed that socio-economic dimension was the most fruitful area for policy capturing.Conference Object Progress Depends on Unbalance and Disorder(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 1997) Özcan, A. CanTechnology is a state of progress which depends on unbalanced structures of human functions and relations. Technology was once the vital element of mankind to survive in nature. But today, technology has reached a perfection level above any natural entity including homo technologicus. Thus, the natural selection has become the technological selection, and technology which was once a servant for mankind, has become the master. An attitude towards life which does not depend on ethical, logical or aesthetic principles only brings high technology to the wealthy and the powerful, discriminating the rest including nature itself.
