Year 2010, Issue: 20, 140 - 150, 09.05.2013

Abstract

21. yüzyılda, insanlık ve insanla ilgili her öğe hızlı ve tarihin hiçbir döneminde olmayan değişimlerle karşı karşıyadır. 21. yüzyılda eğitim sistemlerinde
değişimin ana merkezi ilköğretim ve ortaöğretim okullarıdır. İlköğretim ve
ortaöğretim okulları, nitelikli yurttaş yetiştirerek, ülkenin kalkınmasında büyük
öneme sahip eğitim kademeleridir. Bu nedenle, bu okulların eğitimin amaçlarını üst
düzeyde gerçekleştirmeye yönelik organizasyonu, kaynaklarının sağlanması ve
işleyişlerinin merkezinde okul yöneticisi yer almaktadır. Bu çerçevede, bu
çalışmada, 21. yüzyılda lider olarak okul yöneticilerinin yeni görev ve niteliklerine
ilişkin öne çıkan yeni anlayışların ortaya konulması ve buradan hareketle bu
niteliklerinden öğretim liderliği ve kapsamının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Araştırmada derleme (tarama) yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bu literatür taramasında şu
sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır: 1- 21. yüzyılda okul yöneticisinin görevleri daha kapsamlı ve
çok bileşenli hale gelmiştir. 2- 21. yüzyılda, okul yöneticisinin anahtar rolü, yüksek
ve nitelikli öğrenci başarısı için, öncelikli olarak öğrenme-öğretme süreçlerinin
etkililiğini temele almadır. 3- 21. yüzyılın okul yöneticisinin öne çıkan özelliği
değişim odaklı liderlik davranışlarını sergilemesidir. 4- 21. yüzyılda lider olarak
okul yöneticisinin en önemli özelliği, hem öğrenen hem de öğreten olmasıdır. 5- 21.
yüzyılda, okul yöneticisinin yeni görevlerinden biri öğretimsel liderliktir. 6-
Öğretimsel liderlik, destekleyici, kolaylaştırıcı ve bu süreçleri harekete geçiren bir
katalizördür. 7- Öğretimsel liderlik, ailelerle, velilerle, öğretmenler ve öğrencilerle
etkileşimi ve her bir öğrencinin bireysel gelişimi hakkında bilgi verici etkinlikleri
kapsayan bir süreçtir. 8- 21. yüzyılda eğitim sistemlerindeki değişiklikler, okul
yöneticisi yetiştirme eğitim programlarının da yenilenmesini gerektirmektedir.
