It can be said that entrepreneurship education is effective in realizing career plans that will shape the lives of individuals. This situation causes people to give importance to entrepreneurship. The knowledge and skills gained in the entrepreneurship education process benefit people's lives. Entrepreneurship education has an undeniable effect on human life and the success of countries in social, economic, cultural and technological fields. For this reason, countries attach importance to entrepreneurship education and include this course in their education and training programs. In this study, the education system of Poland, which is one of the successful countries in research results such as PISA and TIMSS, is discussed in terms of entrepreneurship education. Entrepreneurship education in Poland is compulsory at some grade levels. Therefore, it is considered important to evaluate the entrepreneurship education practices in this country. Qualitative research method was used in the research. The data were obtained with the document review form, descriptive analysis and content analysis methods were used in the analysis of the data. The findings were interpreted under three headings: 1. The content of the teaching programs within the framework of entrepreneurship education. 2. Evaluation of learning outcomes in teaching programs within the framework of entrepreneurship education. 3. Evaluation criteria of students in the process of entrepreneurship education.

Without being aware of it, metaphorical concepts reveal their expressions word for word in our social life. It is the expression of thoughts using concrete and abstract concepts. The aim of this study is to reveal the mental perceptions of teacher candidates about entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurship skills by using metaphors. The participants of the study are teacher candidates studying in ten different branches at the Faculty of Education in Bolu Abant Izzet Baysal University in the 2019-2020 academic year. In the research, as a data collection tool, a form that includes the expression "Entrepreneurship education / entrepreneurship skill…… because……" was used to identify metaphors for entrepreneurship education. The data obtained from the data collection tool were analyzed using qualitative data analysis techniques. Content analysis and metaphor analysis were used in the analysis of the data. According to the findings obtained from the study, pre-service teachers produced a total of 100 metaphors for entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurship skills. These metaphors are evaluated in three categories: 1-Theoretical framework of entrepreneurship education, 2-Values of entrepreneurship education, 3-Sub-skills of entrepreneurship education. These conceptual categories were examined according to the pre-service teachers' branches and the data obtained were evaluated under three main categories and under thirty-five titles. According to the results of the research, the perceptions of pre-service teachers about entrepreneurship education and gaining entrepreneurship skills are generally positive.

The aim of this study is to gain entrepreneurship skills with activities in mathematics education. With this aim, the Primary School Mathematics Curriculum was examined by the researchers. In this process, data were collected using a document review form developed by the researchers within the framework of Tarhan (2019a). According to this framework, entrepreneurship education includes five dimensions, namely business idea, finance, product design and production, promotion and marketing, investment. Obtained data was analyzed by document analysis method. Through the analysis process, the objectives of the program related to the entrepreneurial skills were determined and the activities were designed in line with these objectives. As a result, it was determined that the activities prepared in order to gain entrepreneurship skills in the Primary School Mathematics Curriculum were not compatible with each grade level and each learning domain. This suggests that some of the objectives are not compatible for gaining entrepreneurship skills. Therefore, any activities could be designed related to objectives and learning domains at some of the grade levels. Moreover, it was also found that there were any studies in mathematics education involving the creation and application of mathematical activities by addressing entrepreneurship elements systematically (dimension, subject, skill, value).

The aim of this study is to determine the objectives in the Middle School Mathematics Course Curriculum that can be associated with entrepreneurship education and to prepare activities/questions related to these objectives to be studied in gaining entrepreneurship skills. The curriculum was examined according to the framework developed by Tarhan (2019b), which consists of the dimensions of business idea, finance, product design and production, promotion and marketing, and investment within entrepreneurship education. The data obtained through the examination of the objectives were analyzed by descriptive analysis, and it was determined that at least one objective could be associated with each of the dimensions at each grade level. In total, 42 objectives in the learning domains of 'numbers and operations, geometry and measurement, algebra, probability, and data processing' were determined related to the dimensions of entrepreneurship skills. Accordingly, sample activities/questions to be studied in gaining 20 different sub-skills of entrepreneurship education were prepared and it was suggested that further research can be conducted to investigate the effectiveness of these activities/questions prepared to develop entrepreneurship skills.

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of fading methods such as sand-blasting, laser and washing on performance properties of denim products. In this study, on one type of denim fabric, fading methods by laser and sandblasting were applied in different intensities and pressures, and then fabrics were washed with the aid of different types of washing processes. Also, another denim fabric group was only washed by applying different types of washing processes. At the end of the study, loss of weight, color abrasion and loss of tensile strength of denim fabrics were measured. As a result, fading methods decreased tensile strength and weight values and the decrease rates changed in line with the intensity and the pressure of fading methods. Furthermore, color abrasion values of the fabrics changed due to the intensity and the pressure of fading methods. Back-staining values decreased after laccase enzyme and hypochlorite bleaching, but after other washings, back-staining values increased due to washing type. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
