Attitude, which is one of the important topics of social psychology, is defined in the literature as a psychological element that can direct the behavior of individuals (Özmenteş and Özmenteş, 2009). According to Tolan, the attitude “in its broadest sense is the way in which the individual is standing up against the objects or subjects that contain a psychological value” (Gömleksiz, 2003). It has been proved by many research findings that attitudes developed as a natural result of interaction, greatly affect the success of the individual (Canakay, 2006). The effects starting from childhood, the experiences gained in later years and the fields related to the interests, desires and aims of the personality play the most decisive and effective role in the formation of attitudes. These features, which are valid in music education, are also very important in the piano education of the student. From all these definitions, it can be concluded that students' attitudes to the piano have important effects on their education and their use of the piano in the future (Bakıoğlu, 2012).The main purpose of this research is to reveal the attitudes of pre-service teachers who take Piano courses in Music Education Departments of Faculty of Education. In this study, whether the scores obtained from the Piano lesson attitude scale showed significant difference according to some variables is also examined. The research was conducted on the students of Marmara University, Ataturk Faculty of Education, Music Education Department (N = 30) in 2017-2018 academic year. The data of the study was collected by using the “Personal Information Form” prepared by the researcher and “Piano Lesson Attitude Scale” which was prepared to learn the pre-service teachers' thoughts about Piano Lesson.

The data collected through test was analyzed descriptively to find out the mean, median, mode and inferentially by conducting t-test (polled variance). The result of hypothesis testing shows that there is significant difference of students’ ability in solving mathematical problem between students who attend learning process in polya model and students who attend a learning process which not use polya model. The finding indicates that learning process in polya model make students to actively participate in discussion to solve mathematical problem presented. Furthermore, the phases of polya model train students to work systematically in solving the problem.

Literacy is an important result of language teaching. Language skills are like the pieces of a whole. The accurate acquisition of these skills, which are needed to be used effectively by individuals both in their social and educational life, is equally valuable. Writing is a skill that is acquired and developed mostly during the learning process among these skills. Writing requires not only recognizing the letters and language rules but also understanding and internalizing oneself and the environment. Therefore, emotions, opinions and experiences regarding this skill should be emphasized. The aim of this study is to review the relationship between secondary school students’ writing attitudes and anxieties, and writing dispositions. The study group of the study included secondary school students who were randomly selected in the center of Kars, Turkey in the 2019-2020 academic year. Data were collected using “the Attitude Scale towards Writing for Secondary School Students”, “the Writing Disposition Scale”, and “the Writing Anxiety Scale for secondary school Students”. The results showed that secondary school students’ writing attitudes, dispositions and anxieties did not produce a significant difference based on the variable of gender.

This study aimed to find the relationship between leadership skills and self-esteem of the Jordanian universities presidents. The sample of the study included all Jordanian universities presidents for the academic year (2011/2012) counting 30 presidents .The researcher used the analytical descriptive approach to theoretical literature related to the two variables of the study, and developed two questionnaires to collect data: one to detect the degree of implementation of leadership skills, and the other to determine the selfesteem degree. Findings revealed a high level in the implementation of these categories of leadership skills and high level in availability of self-esteem indicators. There was no statistically significant difference due to specialty and type of the university. Also, high positive correlation (p. 0.01) between the leadership skills and self-esteem was found. The indicators of self-esteem may be used in choosing institutional leaders and developing strategies, tests to refine those skills, and enhancing the self concept.
