Exploring well-being dynamics across career stages: Challenges and opportunities for EFL teachers

(Medipol Üniversitesi, 2023) Karanfil, Ferhat; Undergraduate English Program; Karanfil, Ferhat

This session delves into the dynamic nature of well-being among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers, examining how it changes across various career stages. In the context of an ever-evolving educational landscape with fast-technology improvements and pandemics, understanding the well-being challenges and opportunities faced by EFL teachers is crucial for promoting their professional development, personal satisfaction, workload, student dynamics, institutional support, and personal growth. Combining extensive research and real-life experiences, this study explores the features of well-being transitions from novice to experienced EFL colleagues. The paper will shed light on the opportunities within these challenges. It will emphasize the importance of mentorship, professional development, and self-care practices at different career stages to enhance well-being. The role of educational institutions and policymakers in fostering a supportive environment for EFL teachers will also be explored, ultimately benefiting both teachers and their students.

Bioswales as engineering functions of nature-based solutions to increase urban resilience: A review

(Istanbul University-Cerrahpaşa, 2024-05) Şen, Emine; Interior Architecture and Environmental Design; ŞAT, Beyza; Şen, Emine

The increasing challenges posed by climate change are having a more pronounced impact on urban areas than ever before. To ensure the well-being of urban residents, it is imperative to allocate resources for both theoretical knowledge and practical implementation of urban green infrastructure in adaptation and mitigation measures. Nature-based solutions offer a multifaceted approach to addressing these complex challenges. Among these innovative strategies, bioswales emerge as a fundamental and widely adapted element in urban areas, designed to manage stormwater runoff effectively. The successful implementation of bioswales relies on factors such as the choice of materials, orientation, and location within the urban landscape. A systematic literature review was conducted to establish a comprehensive framework for the use of bioswales concerning ecosystem services and their impact on the quality of urban residents’ lives. This review aimed to scrutinize case studies that examined the selection and engineering aspects of bioswales based on site-specific and climatic conditions, available resources, performance, maintenance, and design decisions. The resulting framework promotes the use of bioswales in the aspect of technological, natural, and socio-economic systems for the sustainable resilience of the cities. The research findings suggest that by optimizing the integration of bioswales with urban elements and improving maintenance practices, there is the potential for a significant and lasting improvement in the quality of urban life. Given the complex landscape of governmental policies and the limited body of research addressing the accessibility and engineering system of nature-based solutions, there is a need for future investigations that involve real-life implementations and additional case studies.
