Master Thesis The Impact of Audience Feedback on Sns User's Self - Representation in the New Media Age(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2016) Ali, Yasmin Essam Said; Bozdağ Bucak, ÇiğdemThis thesis examines the relationship between audience feedback and selfrepresentation on Facebook using Erving Goffman's dramaturgical model, focusing on the conceptions of audience and context on Facebook of Facebook-using students at Kadir Has University. I am exploring participants' perspectives in four main areas: Audience Feedback on Facebook user's posts and photos; examining user's response to audience feedback; investigating user's self-representation on Facebook; and finally examining if people's online and offline personalities are different and if they are presenting themselves differently in different situations and with different people. I examine the impact of audience feedback on Facebook users' behavior, and understand how Facebook users is re-presenting themselves online. Theoretically, I consider Goffman's model, by applying it to the findings and results of this study.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 14Intercultural Learning in Schools Through Telecollaboration? a Critical Case Study of Etwinning Between Turkey and Germany(Sage Publications Inc, 2018) Bozdağ Bucak, ÇiğdemDigital media offer various possibilities for internet-based telecollaboration in schools and open up a space for intercultural learning. Diverse initiatives like such as the European Union-initiative eTwinning network aim to support telecollaboration projects in education. This article argues that we need to develop critical and grounded understanding of telecollaboration projects and how they are being embedded in the context of existing school cultures. The article presents an in-depth case study of a telecollaboration project between a Turkish and a German school. On the basis of observations in schools interviews with teachers and focus groups with pupils the article argues that there are two main challenges that limit the experience of intercultural learning in the analysed project. The first point is about the strong teacher-centred project design and the discrepancy between the perspectives of teachers and pupils. The second point is the rather simplistic and superficial understanding of culture which reasserts national cultures instead of promoting a more open perspective that influences the project tasks and topics.Article Citation - WoS: 34Citation - Scopus: 38Bottom-Up Nationalism and Discrimination on Social Media: an Analysis of the Citizenship Debate About Refugees in Turkey(Sage Publications Ltd, 2020) Bozdağ Bucak, ÇiğdemThis study analyzes social media representations of refugees in Turkey and discusses their role in shaping public opinion. The influx of millions of Syrian refugees in Turkey has created heated debates about their presence and future in the country. One of these debates was triggered by President Erdogan's statement that Turkey would issue citizenship rights to Syrians in July 2016. Due to a lack of critical voices about refugee issues in Turkey's mass media sphere, social media has become a key platform for citizens to voice their opinions. Through a discourse analysis of tweets about the issue of refugees' citizenship, I will map different perceptions of refugees in Turkey. I argue that despite contesting discourses about Syrians, the debate on social media reinforces nationalism and an ethnocentric understanding of citizenship in Turkey. As the number of refugees and migrants increases rapidly worldwide, they become the new 'others' of national imagined communities. Social media becomes a key communication space where the nation is discursively constructed in a bottom-up manner through manifestations of 'us' and 'them'. The analysis shows that social media contributes to trivialization and normalization of discrimination and hatred against Syrian refugees through disseminating overt discourses of 'Othering'. Social media also enables more covert forms of discrimination through 'rationalized' arguments that are used to justify discrimination through the basis of false/non-verified information. Thus, Twitter becomes a space for critical, bottom-up, yet nationalistic and discriminatory statements about refugees.Editorial Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 23Editorial Introduction. Representations of Immigrants and Refugees: News Coverage Public Opinion and Media Literacy(DE GRUYTER MOUTON, 2018) Smets, Kevin; Bozdağ Bucak, Çiğdem[Abstract Not Available]Master Thesis The Role of Social Media on Cultural Heritage Consciousness :a Case Study of Hagia Sophia and Foursquare(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2018) Çetinkaya, Mustafa; Bozdağ Bucak, ÇiğdemThe widespread cultural heritage consciousness is important for the protection and promotion of cultural assets. This study aims to examine the influence of social media tools on the widespread awareness of cultural heritage. The Hagia Sophia Museum was chosen as the sample place and Foursquare was selected as the sample social media tool. After examining the technical and theoretical background a triple research was designed. Foursquare interpretations of 2016 were transformed into a data set a survey was conducted for visitors at the Hagia Sophia Museum and expert opinions were sought. The results of the research have been analyzed within the framework of the knowledge and views gained in the technical and theoretical background. it has been seen that the development of social media technologies and tools has positive effects on the widespread of cultural heritage consciousness.Article Citation - WoS: 38Understanding the Images of Alan Kurdi With "small Data": a Qualitative, Comparative Analysis of Tweets About Refugees in Turkey and Flanders (belgium)(USC Annenberg Press, 2017) Bozdağ Bucak, Çiğdem; Smets, KevinOne of the peak moments of the debate on the European refugee crisis was caused by the circulation of images of Alan Kurdi, a three-year-old Syrian boy who drowned in the Aegean Sea on September 2, 2015. The images triggered worldwide reactions from politicians, nongovernmental organizations, and citizens. This article analyzes these reactions through a qualitative study of 961 tweets from Turkey and Flanders (Belgium), contextualizing them into the framing and representation of refugees before and after the images were released. Our study finds that, despite their iconic qualities and potential to mobilize Twitter users around refugee issues, the images did not cause a major shift in common discourses and representations. Instead, references to Kurdi were incorporated into preexisting discourses on and representations of refugees, thus offering different actors in the public debate on refugees with new symbols and motifs to construct meaning.Master Thesis The Factors That Influence the Transformation of a Regular User To a Youtube Celebrity(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2016) Kahraman, Ninsu; Bozdağ Bucak, ÇiğdemThe purpose of this research is to explain the factors that are efficient for being a YouTube celebrity rather than a regular user of YouTube. The goal is to show that YouTube users have something in common while creating their content. Since YouTube recently became a business opportunity in Turkey it has users attention. To identify patterns among YouTube content creators i made interviews with them. Then analyze the findings and created the path of being YouTube celebrity.Master Thesis Incorporating the Non-Expert Publıic To Heritage Practices From Below(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2018) Toktaş, Özge; Bozdağ Bucak, Çiğdemin our 21st century cultural heritage field grows to be much more dynamic participatory open to change and dialogue. The scope of cultural heritage too broadens. People who are supposed to inherit heritage are acknowledged as not just mere inheritors anymore but also as the creators of heritage itself. Quite supportive of this development new media lead the way of hearing user-generated contents in cultural heritage practices that used to be strictly confined to the expert-based opinions. in light of these progresses this thesis endeavors to make visible the efforts of incorporating the non-expert public to heritage practices from below in Turkey. Although there are institutional efforts of integrating the public to the cultural heritage practices through new media and there are studies on such efforts the heritage practices from below are quite neglected by the scholarly literature here in Turkey. Following up this fact this thesis elaborates on the four cases which embrace a bottom-up heritage discourse in Turkey. Adopting an ethnographic approach the thesis analyzes the four chosen cases (Ýstanbul Kent Savunmasi Memory Map UrbanObscura Adalara Ses Ol) through in depth interviews and concludes with an argument that to achieve a bottom-up application of such participatory discourse is difficult while the expert’s dominance design and guidance is still impenetrable. Altogether the cases examined here indeed variegate heritage stories.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 24News-Sharing Repertoires on Social Media in the Context of Networked Authoritarianism: the Case of Turkey(USC ANNENBERG PRESS, 2020) Koçer, Süncem; Bozdağ, ÇiğdemSocial media has become a primary gateway for users to access news, especially in authoritarian states with strictly controlled media environments. In such contexts, it is crucial to understand the motivations that prompt users to share news on social media. Our qualitative multimethod study presents three patterns of news-sharing repertoires on social media: (1) refraining from sharing and/or self-censorship, (2) sharing overtly political news, and (3) sharing news with political implications in carefully crafted safe zones. In Turkey, these patterns are strongly influenced by the polarized and increasingly authoritarian setting. Our findings first contribute to the literature on news sharing and news repertoires through an in-depth study of news-sharing repertories that emphasize the role of social and political contexts. Second, we contribute to the literature on social media and authoritarianism by shedding light on a rather understudied group of users who do not completely self-censor and are not political activists but still share news with political implications online in a cautious and strategic way.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Media-Bridge Exploring Mediated Cultural Encounters(Sage Publications Inc, 2018) Bozdağ Bucak, Çiğdem; Odag, Ozen[Abstract Not Available]
