Bu çalışma, ilkokulda ebeveynlerin eğitimden beklentilerini açıklamayı amaçlamakta olup, keşfedici sıralı karma yöntem yaklaşımıyla tasarlanmıştır. Nicel veriler için geçerliliği ve güvenilirliği kanıtlanmış, araştırmacı tarafından geliştirilen bir kontrol listesi kullanılırken, nitel veriler yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Çalışmanın katılımcıları, çocukları bir devlet ilkokulunda öğrenim gören 190 ebeveynden oluşmaktadır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, ebeveynlerin birincil beklentileri makrosistem içinde yer alan “millî-dinî değerler” ve “ahlak eğitimi” dir. Bireysel gelişim ve akademik başarıyı içeren mikrosistem boyutu ise ikinci sırada yer almaktadır. Birinci sınıf velileri akademik başarıya öncelik verirken, üst sınıflardaki veliler millî, dini ve ahlaki değerlerin daha fazla vurgulanmasını beklemektedir. En az önemsenen kavramlar ise kronosistem teması içinde yer alan “göç” ve “aile yapısı”dır. Ayrıca, dezavantajlı öğrencilere yönelik farkındalığın ve duyarlılığın artırılması gerekmektedir, çünkü ebeveynlerin bu gruba ilişkin beklentileri ve bilgi düzeyleri görece düşük bulunmuştur. Çalışma sonucu elde edilen bulgulara göre; ekolojik sistemler kuramı ebeveynlerin eğitimden beklentilerini açıklamada uygun bir araç niteliğindedir. Okul-aile iş birliğinin sağlıklı bir şekilde ilerlemesi ve ebeveynlerin beklentilerinin yerine getirebilmesi için hem okul bazında hem de genel eğitim politikasında etnik ve kültürel farklılıklara saygı çerçevesinde millî-dini-ahlaki değerlere yönelik çalışmalar yapılması önerilmektedir.

Educational Expectations of Parents within the Framework of Ecological Systems Theory

Öz

This study, which aims to explain the expectations of families in primary education, was designed with an exploratory sequential mixed method approach. While a checklist developed by the author, whose validity and reliability has been proven, was used for quantitative data, a semi-structured interview form was used for qualitative data. The participants of the research consist of 190 parents whose children are enrolled in a public primary. According to the results, the main expectations of the parents are “national-religious values” and “moral education” within the macrosystem. The microsystem dimension, which includes individual development and academic success, is in second place. While first grade parents prioritize academic success, national-religious-moral values are expected to be taught in the upper grades. The least expected concepts are “migration” and “family structure” within the chronosystem theme. In addition, awareness and sensitivity should be increased towards disadvantaged students whose parents’ expectations and knowledge levels are lower. According to the findings obtained from the study, the ecological systems theory is an appropriate tool for explaining parents' expectations from education. In order for school-family collaboration to progress healthily and for parents to meet their expectations, it is recommended that efforts be made at both the school level and within general educational policies, based on respect for ethnic and cultural differences, with a focus on national, religious, and moral values.
