Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 4Investigating Syrian Refugees' Choice of Location in Urban Areas as a Subjective Process: a Cross-Case Comparison in the Neighbourhoods of Onder (Ankara) and Yunusemre (Izmir)(intellect Ltd, 2021) Kahraman, Zerrin Ezgi; Gungordu, Feriha NazdaIn migration literature, the growing interest in the localized and subjective forms of refugee emplacement in urban areas following the influx of Syrian refugees has brought along new debates on how to approach the location choices (LC) of refugees. Accordingly, in this study, we investigated the different dimensions of Syrian refugees' location choices at the urban/neighbourhood level. Specifically, we aimed to understand the dynamics behind the growing tendency among Syrian refugees in Turkey to settle in neighbourhoods that are close to inner-city industrial sites by conducting two case studies in the Onder neighbourhood of Ankara and the Yunusemre neighbourhood of Izmir in a comparative manner. From the twenty-three interviews conducted with Syrians, we uncovered the themes of LC and categorized them in accordance with the dimensions of LC addressed in the literature. We identified three main dimensions that affected Syrians' location choices at the neighbourhood level as: economic (the availability of job opportunities, public and commercial services, the affordability of accommodation), socio-cultural (the existence of co-ethnics, kinship/ethnic relations) and socio-spatial (proximity to the city centre, transportation, public and commercial services, workplaces). Here, we acknowledged the intertwined relation between these dimensions and refugee subjectivity in LC.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Student Participation in Bologna Process: a Case Study From Turkey(Fac Teacher Education, 2014) Kahraman, Zerrin Ezgi; Kahraman, Z. Ezgi; Sakarya, Arif Orçun; Sakarya, A. Orcun; Şehir ve Bölge Planlama; İşletmeBologna 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.
