It
is considered that modern
education is designed to shape students like lifeless physical objects. It is
also accepted that the art of teaching as filling students with knowledge like
filling a bottle from a tap. Ultimately, this kind of education ignores basic
human values and solidarity among them, whereas students need to determine
their own ways in their nature. In this respect, during educational practices; physical,
pedagogical environment and leadership practices may play important roles
to settle values among students. Therefore, this qualitative study purposed to explore teachers’ views on roles
of physical and pedagogical environment and administrators’ leadership
practices toward humanizing education. Results revealed that physical and
pedagogical learning environments were not designed to make educational
processes more humanized. Also, administrators’ leadership practices do not
serve education to become more humanized. It is recommended that while
designing and managing educational processes, human factor should be in the
center.

Modern eğitimin öğrencileri cansız nesneler gibi biçimlendirdiği
söylenebilir. Hatta öğretim sanatının öğrencileri akan bir musluktan bir şişeyi
doldurma gibi bilgiyle doldurma gayretinde olduğu uzmanlarca da kabul
edilmektedir. Sonuçta, öğrenciler arasında insani değerler ve dayanışma ihmal
edilmektedir. Hâlbuki öğrenciler kendi yollarını kendi doğalarına göre belirlemek
ihtiyacındadırlar. Bu bağlamda, eğitim uygulamaları öğrenciler arasında insani
değerler ve dayanışma duygusunu yerleştirme konusunda önemli roller
oynayabilir. Bu nedenle, mevcut nitel araştırma fiziksel öğrenme çevresi,
pedagojik öğrenme çevresi ve yöneticilerin yönetsel uygulamalarının eğitimin
insancıllaştırılması sürecindeki rollerine dair öğretmenlerin görüşlerini
ortaya çıkartmayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmanın sonuçları fiziksel öğrenme ve
pedagojik öğrenme çevresinin eğitimin insancıllaştırılması amacına uygun bir
şekilde düzenlenmediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Yine yöneticilerin yönetsel
uygulamalarının eğitimin insancıllaştırılmasına hizmet etmemektedir. Eğitimin
planlanması ve uygulanması süreçlerinde insan faktörünün merkezde olması
gerektiği önerilmektedir.
