Öz

Bu araştırmanın amacı, aday öğretmenlerin eğitiminde kullanılan Göreve Başlatma Programı (GBP)’nın Türkiye’de uygulanabilirliğine ilişkin aday öğretmenlerin ve okul yöneticilerinin görüşlerinin incelenmesidir. Bu amaçla Gaziantep ilindeki okul öncesi ve ilköğretim kurumlarında görev yapan 9 aday öğretmen ve 10 okul yöneticisi ile odak grup görüşmeleri yapılmıştır. Odak grup görüşmelerinde GBP’nin amaçlar ve hedefler, tasarım ve uygulama aşamalarına ilişkin sorular sorulmuştur. Elde edilen verilerin analizinde içerik analizi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda; aday öğretmenlerin ve okul yöneticilerinin, GBP’nin adaylık eğitimi programı olarak kullanılabileceğini ve kullanılmasının yararlı olacağını düşündükleri tespit edilmiştir. Aday öğretmenler ve okul yöneticileri, aday öğretmenlerin GBP kapsamında özellikle sınıf yönetimi ve etkili iletişim alanlarında yardım almaları gerektiğini düşünmektedirler. Araştırmanın bulgularına dayalı olarak, mevcut adaylık eğitimi programının sorunlarının belirlenerek bu sorunların çözümüne yönelik GBP gibi farklı alternatiflerin incelenmesi önerilmektedir. Aday öğretmenlerin mesleki gelişim süreçlerinde daha yoğun bir etkileşimle çalışılmasını sağlayabilecek mentorlük sistemi aday öğretmenlere sunulmalıdır.
