Abstract

Giriş: Kaynaştırma uygulamaları kapsamındaki destek eğitim odası (DEO) hizmeti, mevzuatta yer almasına karşın son dönemlerde ülkemizde fiili olarak sunulmaya başlamış ve bu hizmetin nasıl sunulacağı tartışılır hale gelmiştir.
Yöntem: Bu nedenle bu çalışma DEO’nun temel boyutları olan yönetim, rehberlik ve uygulama boyutlarının nasıl işlediğini bütün olarak görmek, betimlemek ve sonucunda çözüm önerileri sunmak amacıyla nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden iç içe geçmiş tek durum çalışması olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda belirtilen her bir boyutun sorumluları olan 10 okul yöneticisi, 10 rehber ve 10 DEO öğretmeniyle yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Katılımcıların okullarında DEO’nun fiziksel ortamına ilişkin geliştirilen kontrol listeleri kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca araştırmacı, DEO’nun işleyişini betimlemek için bir okulun iki ayrı DEO’sunda saha notları tutmuş; süreç boyunca araştırmacı günlüğüne görüşlerini yansıtmıştır.
Bulgular: Yapılan analiz sonucunda fiziksel ortama, paydaşların görüşlerine ve DEO’nun işleyişine ilişkin üç tema ortaya çıkmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, DEO’ların fiziksel ortamının yetersiz olduğu, rehber öğretmen ve yöneticilerin DEO sürecinin lideri olduğu, DEO’da sadece öğretim hizmeti sağlandığı, danışmanlık hizmetinin sunulmadığı görülmüştür; katılımcıların DEO bilgilerinin yetersiz olduğu anlaşılmıştır.
Tartışma: Araştırma sonucunda DEO hizmeti süreçlerin sağlıklı işlemediği, katılımcıların DEO bilgilerinin yeterli olmadığı ortaya çıkmıştır. DEO’da öğretmenlerin sadece öğretim yaptıkları, DEO konusunda lider kişilerin okullardaki rehber öğretmenlerle okul yöneticileri olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Belirtilen bu olumsuz durumların üstesinden gelmek için DEO’lara özel eğitim öğretmeni ataması önerilmiştir.

A Case Study for Resource Room Service Attended by Students with Intellectual Disability

Abstract

Introduction: Although it is included in the legislation, the resource room (RR) service within the scope of inclusive practices has recently been provided in Turkey. However, the question of how this service is offered remains controversial.
Method: Therefore, the present study was carried out as a nested single case study, one of the qualitative research methods. The aim was to see and describe how the fundamental dimensions of RR including management, guidance, and implementation as a whole were in effect. Accordingly, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 school principals, 10 guidance counselors, and 10 RR teachers. Checklists developed for the physical environment of the RR were used in the schools of the participants. Besides, the researcher took field notes at two separate RRs of a school to describe the functioning of the RR and reflected her views in the diary throughout the process.
Findings: As a result of the analysis, three themes were revealed and these included the physical environment, stakeholders’ views, and the functioning of the RR. The study revealed that the physical environments of the RRs were insufficient, the counselors and administrators were the leaders of the RR process, and only teaching service was provided with a lack of consultancy service in the RR. It was seen that the participants’ knowledge of the RR was insufficient.
Discussion: As a result of the research, it was revelad that the RR service processes did not function properly and the participants did not have enough information about the RR. It has been determined that the teachers only teach in the RR and that the leaders of the RR are the GC and school principals in the schools. It has been suggested to provide special education teachers to the RR in order to regulate these ineligible situations.
