<p><strong>ABSTRACT</strong></p><p>Cyprus, the third largest island in Mediterranean has passed different types of civilization periods. The most significant periods reflecting the architectural and historical characteristics in the island are; until XVIth century under the influence of Latin Civilizations, later on Ottoman (1571-1878), British (1878-1960) and Modern (1960-present) periods. Due to its strategic position in Mediterranean, different cultures from east and west are combined in its heritage. The Turks came to Cyprus in 1571 when the Island was conquered by Ottomans. After this date, the Ottomans began to build their culture they brought with them in Cyprus. All the necessary administrative, religious and public institutions for the administration of the island were established. The monumental buildings indicating Ottomans administrative, educational and social configuration in architecture like mosques, baths, inns, mills, aqueducts, educational institutions, commercial places were built and their continuity with the <em>waqfs</em> (foundations) tradition was ensured. In 1974, a bi-regional settlement policy has been followed on the Island. The northern part settled by the Turkish Cypriots, the southern part settled by the Greek Cypriots and Nicosia became a divided capital city. In this study, the four mosques Omerieh, Bairakdar, Arablar and Tahtakale (Taht-El Kale) from Ottoman Period in South Nicosia are investigated. In the study firstly the archieves of awqaf (vaqf) and literature were searched and historical information about the buildings were collected. Afterwards, the buildings were observed on site and their current conditions were analyzed. The study was made with the aim of documenting the current structural and functional conditions of these mosques which each one is a part of tangible cultural heritage.</p><p> </p><p><strong>ÖZ</strong></p><p>Akdeniz’de üçüncü büyük ada olan Kıbrıs, farklı uygarlık dönemleri geçirmiştir. Adaya mimari ve tarihi özelliklerini yansıtan en belirgin dönemler; XVI. yüzyıla kadar Latin Uygarlıkları’nın etkisinde daha sonra Osmanlı (1571-1878), İngiliz (1878-1960) ve Modern (1960-günümüz) dönemleridir. Akdeniz'deki stratejik konumu nedeniyle kültür mirası, doğudan ve batıdan değişik kültürleri kapsamaktadır. Türkler Kıbrıs'a 1571'de adanın Osmanlı’lar tarafından fethi ile birlikte gelmiştir. Bu tarihten sonra Osmanlı’lar, beraberlerinde getirdikleri kültürü Kıbrıs’ta da inşa etmeye başlamışlardır. Adanın yönetimi için gereksinim duyulan idari, dini ve kamu ile ilgili kurumlar kurulmuştur. Camiler, hamamlar, hanlar, değirmenler, su kemerleri, eğitim kurumları ve ticaret yerleri gibi Osmanlı’nın yönetim, eğitim ve sosyal yapılanmasının mimari alanda göstergeleri olan anıtsal yapılar inşa edilerek, vakıf (evkaf) geleneği ile devamlılıkları sağlanmıştır. 1974’ten itibaren adada iki bölgeli bir yerleşim politikası izlenmiştir. Adanın kuzey bölgesi, Kıbrıslı Türklerin yerleştiği, güney bölgesi ise Kıbrıslı Rumların yerleştiği bölgeler olarak ayrılarak, Lefkoşa bölünmüş bir başkent haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışmada, Güney Lefkoşa'da Osmanlı Dönemi'nden kalan dört yapı olan Ömeriye, Bayraktar, Araplar ve Tahtakale (Taht-El Kale) camileri incelenmiştir. Çalışmada öncelikle evkaf (vakıf) arşivleri ve literatür taraması yapılarak, yapıların tarihçeleri ile ilgili bilgi toplanmıştır. Daha sonra yapıların yerinde inceleme yapılarak, güncel durumları analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma, taşınmaz birer kültür mirası olan bu camilerin günümüzdeki yapısal ve işlevsel durumlarının ortaya konması amacı ile yapılmıştır.</p>

This paper addresses the scholarly debate on cultural homogeneity or heterogeneity of urban poor families. While authors such as Lewis (1959) or Wacquant (2000 ; 2001) claim that structural disadvantages are linked to a particular type of identity or culture, others such as Hannerz (1969) , Anderson (1999 ; 2002) , or Portes ( Portes and Manning, 1986 ; Portes and Jensen, 1989 ) believe that it is possible to find different behaviors, expectations, decision–making processes, and outcomes among people living in seemingly identical structural conditions ( Small et al., 2010 ). Using Santiago, Chile, as a case study, we differentiate five different cultures or identities among the poor. Those identities seem to be the product of different historical and political circumstances, as well as of different types of public policies. The paper ends with a discussion of the need for poverty reduction policies to consider these differences among the poor.

Article’s main body. The article conducts a general study and analysis of the right of the public institutions of higher education to lease property. The author emphasizes that public higher educational institutions have the right to lease out only real estate and other individually identified property. The legal consequences of concluding lease agreements by public higher educational institutions in violation of the current legislation have been studied. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Summarizing the results of the study we can formulate the following conclusions. The public institutions of higher education have the right to lease out real estate and other individually determined property in the manner prescribed by law and subject to statutory restrictions (without the right of redemption and sublease, when it does not worsen the social and living conditions of persons studying or working in the educational institution). While leasing the property, the public higher educational institution realizes primarily their own property interests, at the same time, indirectly realizing the property interests of the state. If the lease agreement of real estate and other individually determined property of higher educational institutions is recognized as invalid, it may be recognized as invalid only for the future.

This paper examines the case of Chisinau urban milieu in the context of the ongoing process of transition. The capital city of the Republic of Moldova represents the reflection of society as a whole, being not just a political, cultural and economic center of the country, but a migration hub for the rest of the Moldovan population as well. As a post-Soviet and East-European city, it combines features of both modernization and degradation, generating such phenomena as ruralisation, gated communities in the center of the city, semi-public spaces, chaotic parking, lack of city planning, lack of heterogeneity of the urban space, etc. The urban milieu of Chisinau represents a complicated formation of coexisting social strata with different cultures, memories, aesthetics and urban identities, which can be sometimes conflicting. More uniform representations about the city need the actualization of its symbolic capital, as well as the creation and maintenance of a brand, which should unite core features of different urban identities.

In this study certain educational institutions such as madrassahs, kulliyes and mosques that contributed to environment in terms of education in the Ottoman period (middle of the fifteenth century-beginning of the nineteenth century)are researched with regards to educational system, curriculum, mudarrises, students and training. The functions and effects of the madrassahs at that time as well as their reflection in our time are dealt with. In this context, some educational institutions included by certain Anatolian madrassahs such as darulkurra, darulhadith, sahnıseman and schools, which are currently existed and not, have been taken in examination. Incorporating madrassahs, which are public instutions in the Ottoman period, in the state organisation has been started with the Fatih madrassahs that were established by Fatih (Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror) and structuring of madrassah order was quickened after the conquest. In time, the cities such as İstanbul (capital city), Edirne, Bursa, İznik, Trabzon, Konya and Diyarbakır have had the most madrassahs. The large majority of madrassahs of Sinan the Architect have been built in Anatolia and in other cities of the Empire. The first Ottoman madrassah was established in İznik and has become widespread in time. In consequence of being institutions in which training was giving according to the curriculum and ratification of mudarris and having distinctive architectural characteristics in their cubicles, porches, classes, iwans and şadırvans gave rise to them having a respectable position in the society. It is commented that the madrassahs that are the symbol of classical Ottoman arcitecture have been retrograded later on. In the scope of madrassahs located in the Antalya region the importance and contribution of them, which have been improved as the reflection of the social changes and have been opened to changes with their internal/external dynamics, and their capability of being met the requirements of society have been examined and explained descriptively together with their contributions to educational mantality in our time.

New time challenges cause new contradictions that are peculiar for educational environment in Russia and they require instant solutions. We have identified the contradictions which defined our target to determine the techniques and methods of distance education for students of pedagogical specializations based on practice-oriented approach, implementation of media educational technologies into the preparation of university students aimed at the development of knowledge, competencies and skills in distance learning in different types of educational institutions. Media educational technologies are conditioned by general pedagogical and didactic principles and the choice of pedagogical methods directly depends on the content of educational discipline, conditions of its implementation and other factors. Media educational technologies used for the completion of social-pedagogical disciplines for university students consist of creative and game tasks. Using them it is essential to consider special features of various media and the target of the lesson. Practice is another relevant purpose in the process of distance learning. We believe that this problem will be dominating in the nearest future as practice in distance learning is focused on by higher education institutions. In this article some techniques and types of this practical training are presented being shaped by the format of distance learning. During various practices the students of pedagogical specializations will be able not only to prepare for their future work but also to assist subject teachers, social pedagogues in schools and to make considerable contributions in this work.

Knowledge of genetics is crucial for understanding genetic and genomic tests and for interpreting personal genomic information. Despite this relevance, no data are available about the level of knowledge of genetics in an Ecuadorian population. This investigation sought to survey such knowledge in undergraduate students affiliated with private and public institutions in Quito, the capital city of Ecuador. A total of 350 individuals responded to a validated questionnaire measuring knowledge of genetics. Scores ranged from 45% to 87% (mean: 66.8%), and students achieved slightly better results when asked about genetics and diseases (mean score: 68.3%) than when asked about genetic facts (mean score: 64.9%). Additionally, no significant differences in performance were found among students from private and public institutions. Surprisingly, the lower score obtained (45%) was from a question about how chromosomes are passed to the next generation. The highly educated status of the surveyed population could explain the overall adequate results; nonetheless, the possibility that the correct responses were given by chance cannot be ignored. Therefore, the actual knowledge of genetics among the participants might be less than that revealed by the percentages of correct answers. Consequently, to achieve the goal of ensuring informed decision-making concerning genetic and genomic tests, it seems evident that the national education programs of Ecuador require improvement in teaching of genetic concepts.
