Mustafa Akdağ The purpose of the book; The aim is to provide researchers with the skills to choose an appropriate statistical test in the analysis of quantitative data, to apply the chosen test by following the correct steps, and to explain and interpret the results of the analysis. This was taken into account in the creation of the content of the book. Statistical test selection is the first and most important step in the data analysis process. The validity and reliability of the application of the selected test and the subsequent comments depend on the correct test selection. Therefore, test selection is considered as the first section. Each section describes the specific conditions for choosing that test. The book includes parametric tests and non-parametric tests, which are thought to be widely used in the field of Educational Sciences. The sample applications of the tests were based on the problem situations that could be the subject of research in the field of Educational Sciences, and the analyzes were made in the SPSS-21 program on the data produced. The outputs of the analysis were explained, sample tables of these outputs that could be included in the research report were created and the data were interpreted.
Detailed theoretical information is avoided in the book, and the sample applications given are supported with explanations. In the analysis steps and explanations, possible difficulties that the researcher may encounter were taken into account as much as possible, “do your own thing” without the help of anyone else. A way to serve the understanding has been followed. It is hoped that the work will be beneficial to academicians working in the field of Social Sciences in general, and educational sciences in particular, and researchers who are doing postgraduate studies, and will guide our teachers, who are in search of excellence, to overcome the problems they encounter while doing research in the teaching process.

We see that many professions are reshaped today, the value of new professions directly related to information and technology is increasing day by day, and the professions of the future are shaped almost in the "cloud" in this context.
The definitions we hear popularly today, such as the German-origin Industry 4.0 and Japan-based Society 5.0 approaches, Education 4.0, Internet 4.0 and Web 5.0 are new paradigms and expansions that have emerged in this context. These new concepts are new values ​​that need to be known globally. These new values ​​create new expectations and new markets. Undoubtedly, it is teachers who will best explain the scope, meaning and value of these populist concepts expressed in digital transformation.
This book has been prepared in order to explain the new paradigms that are taking shape in the “cloud”, their infrastructure and basic dynamics especially to teacher candidates. Apart from teacher candidates, we think that this study will be a useful educational resource for those who want to look at the field of "Information Technologies" as a whole.

Erdal Güvenoğlu The first subject that a person who decides to write a program and learn about programming processes should learn is algorithm design and development technique. These techniques need to be reinforced and applied. The most suitable language for understanding programming logic is C programming language. Today, C language comes to the fore in the construction of almost all operating systems, writing the modules of operating systems and almost everywhere where speed is required.
There are many books on the shelves of many publishing houses in the world that describe algorithms and programming in C language. However, there are not enough examples of applications in any of them. In this book, 365 examples with solutions are given to reinforce the basic programming logic of people who are starting to write programs. These examples start from the basics and work their way up to advanced topics. In addition, in the last part of the book, sorting and search algorithms that are frequently used in data structures are included. With this feature, the book also serves as a basis for the data structures course. Some of the examples used have been compiled from certain websites and books and are indicated in the references section.

Timur Karaçay Thanks to the technological developments in computer hardware, it has been calculated that the life expectancy of a newly emerging language is 10 years on average. All languages ​​make updates and adjustments parallel to the development of hardware and computer science. The language that does not do this job completes its average life span and withdraws from the scene.
Java emerged in the 1995's and has always kept its flagship place. Because Java brought great innovations to computer science. The last version of Java at the time of writing this book was Java 9. Java 9 differs from previous versions; Deep Java 9 describes these differences and innovations.
All versions of Java are backwards compatible up to Java 9. By breaking this rule, Java 9 also brought innovations that are considered revolutionary in the language.
Java 9 continues to support previous versions. This means that Java can be used as is the JCF:Java Collections Framework, which has revolutionized computer science.
Java, which has not lost its place in the flagship since its emergence, will continue to be a robust and reliable language preferred by large enterprises from now on.
This book describes the innovations brought by Java up to version 9. These topics, which are not given much importance in the Introduction to Java lessons, are the hand tools of the professional programmer.
Deep Java 9 is for those with an introductory knowledge of Java. For the non-Java reader, we recommend reading a good java book before starting this one.

Can Aydın Today, with the rapid rise of information and communication technologies, we see that information systems are used in almost every field. Businesses are also taking steps to produce these systems instead of just using information systems in their business processes. Programming skills are vital in taking these steps. While data analysis and artificial intelligence studies have been used in the solution of many business problems by leaving the theoretical environment in recent years, it has become compulsory for students studying in the field of social sciences, especially in the departments of business, economics, finance and management information systems, to take programming education in order to keep up with the developing conditions and to solve their current problems.
In the rapidly developing technology world, the realization of a software idea that comes to your mind is limited to 30 days. In other words, it is necessary not only to think of the idea, but also to implement it quickly. This book provides easy and fast programming education to students in the field of social sciences, explaining the solution of business problems with examples, and enables the development of a wide range of applications from web page design to data analysis, from machine learning to deep learning, which are the usage areas of Python programming language. Even someone who has no programming education, to develop an application using the Python language, it is enough to learn the theoretical information in this book and repeat the applications.

Sinan Uğuz Machine learning, which is expressed as a sub-field of artificial intelligence; It is widely used in many fields led by engineering, finance and bioinformatics. In order to develop machine learning applications, it is important to understand some algorithms that contain calculus, linear algebra and statistics theoretically. After learning the theoretical aspects of these algorithms, an application can be developed by coding it with a programming language with an easy and rich library structure such as Python. The theoretical aspects of machine learning algorithms in the book were meticulously examined, and the necessary linear algebra and statistics were also briefly examined. Python applications were developed for each algorithm using problems containing original datasets. People who want to develop applications with Deep Learning, which is a sub-field of machine learning, especially learn the basic information in this book, will provide an important infrastructure. Deep learning architectures will be easier to understand after reading this book.
Who is this book for?
• Those who want to start developing a Machine Learning application but do not know exactly where to start,
• Those who are already developing Machine Learning applications,

İlhan Tarımer This book, in general, describes the design structures of the elements in the integrated circuit that make up a microprocessor and microcontroller, their functions, and the programming of a computer in machine and assembly language. It is emphasized that all internal units of a microprocessor and their functions are understood, then how to program an embedded system with microprocessor is explained, and the programmatic operation of microcomputers used in both offices and industrial life is explained. In the last part of the book, various object application examples are given to illustrate the business and industrial uses of microcomputers.
This work, called Microcomputer Systems, aims to reach a wide readership and at the same time to be a source book in the field of microcomputers, by describing microcomputers at a basic level, and by comprehensively addressing their internal and external structures, architectures and features to advanced programming commands. It is for this purpose that basic microprocessor or microcontroller structures are based on, especially in the parts of the book where the design structures and programming methods are explained. Of course, the number of bits of microcomputers in use, that is, the length of words they can process at a time is larger. However, it will be easier to learn the instructions of a microcomputer where the number of bits that make up the word length is 8-bit and to understand its programming in machine language.
The programming examples given in the book are program snippets that have been tried in various microprocessor programming simulators. It should be noted that their opcodes will vary according to microprocessor types. In addition, examples of how some assembly programs are written and used within the operating systems of personal computers are also given.
Examples of connection, programming and operation of some microcomputers to the Internet of Things, which are offered for use in an embedded way, can be found in the book as real-life applications. I wish the readers good health and success with the hope that this book can serve as a guide for advanced microcomputer object applications.

Tuncay Uzun Today, software programmable digital electronic systems under the name of microprocessor systems are widely used in many applications for education, security, commercial, industrial, military, health and similar purposes. Microprocessor systems appear with a brand new application area every day. As a result, the use, understanding, design and realization of hardware and software of microprocessor systems has an important place in engineering in almost every field. The aim of this book is to examine the basic concepts on a sample system with the basic structural features of microprocessor-based systems, to teach the hardware and software features of systems and peripherals with a general-purpose microprocessor as the central processing unit in microprocessor-based systems.
In order to make it easier to understand the different microprocessors used today and the systems in which they are used, information about the history and current technological developments is also given. In addition, typographical errors in previous editions of this book have been corrected and some topics such as microprocessor software and microprocessor system design applications have been tried to be written in a more understandable way. This book has been prepared to cover the content of the "microprocessors" course, which is included in the curriculum of the computer, electrical, electronics and communication engineering departments of universities, or to help researchers and engineers who are interested in this subject in other engineering branches.
Three main topics have been determined for the teaching of microprocessor systems and the explanation has been made in the form of subsections of these sections. In the first chapter, the general characteristics of microprocessor systems and which basic concepts and methods are included in the book are given in which order. Microprocessor hardware was chosen as the second main topic. As the third main subject, it is aimed to teach microprocessor software.
Although preliminary information about the subjects is given in the book, having a good knowledge of logic, analysis and design of digital electronic circuits will make it easier to understand the microprocessor hardware. Before the microprocessor software is taught, a brief programming basis is given. However, microprocessor software will be easier to understand if you have knowledge about programming.

Raising individuals suitable for the needs of the age has been the most basic subject of education in every period. This requirement has influenced the design and implementation of educational situations in many ways. Considering its contribution to learning motivation, "effectiveness" and "fun" are two important concepts that should be taken as a basis in the preparation of educational situations. As the name suggests, this book, which is aimed to be a guide for educators, presents the basic and theoretical information necessary to make educational situations effective and enjoyable, with a simple and fluent expression, by giving place to different prefixes and tips for applications. For this purpose, we believe that the lesson plan examples given in the book for different fields will be a source of inspiration for educators from all fields.
Good reading, with the hope that it will contribute to the growth of new generations that are equipped and qualified in accordance with the requirements of the age...

Abdullah Kuzu, Ahmet Sağlam, Ali Oluk, Feray Uğur Erdoğmuş, Hayriye Ayşe Oluk, İbrahim Çelik, Mehmet Kara, Mesut Türk, Özgen Korkmaz, Recep Çakır, Volkan Kukul, Yavuz Ünal In recent years, an important paradigm shift has occurred in programming education, and it has been adopted that high-level thinking skills can be gained by giving programming education. In other words, it has been realized that in addition to raising programmers, high-level thinking skills of individuals can be improved by giving programming education. For this reason, it has been accepted by many countries that it is not possible for programming education to be limited to vocational technical education and engineering education, and that this education should be given to individuals at an earlier age. In this book, it has been tried to discuss all aspects of programming for students who receive this education at an early age, with which tools, which approaches, which skills should be planned, how the education should be implemented and how it should be evaluated at the end of the education. In addition, sample teaching designs have been tried to be presented in the necessary sections. We hope that the book will contribute to our colleagues who teach programming or do academic studies in this field, our graduate students, teachers and teacher candidates.
