The participants of the second phase of the study were 16 Turkish teachers who meet the above criteria. A semi-structured interview was held with the first group, while participants of the second group prepared observation reports on their live courses. The data collection tools of the research consist of a semi-structured interview form and a course observation form. Data collection tools were transformed into online forms and delivered online to the study group. The data of the research was collected over a period of one month and the document analysis technique was used to collect the data. The research data were analyzed using the content analysis method. The categorical analysis, one of the types of content analysis, was used in the study. The data analysis was performed with MAXQDA 2020 qualitative data analysis package program. Visualizations were made with the program used. For data analysis reliability, direct transfer statements were given from the codes where the opinions were concentrated. As a result of the study, it was concluded that the teachers faced with negativities intensely and they could not teach Turkish properly with distance education.

Ahlak gelişimi toplumun tüm değerlerine kayıtsız şartsız edilgin bir uyma değil, topluma etkin bir uyum sağlamak için değerler sistemi oluşturma süreci olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Duygusal zekâ, kişinin kendisinin ve başkalarının hislerini tanıma, kendisini motive etme, içindeki ve ilişkilerindeki duyguları yönetme yetisidir. Ona göre duygusal zekâ ahlaki boyutun bir parçasıdır. Araştırma, probleme uygun olarak algıların gerçekçi ve bütüncül bir biçimde, derinlemesine ortaya konmasını hedefleyen nitel araştırma modeli ve olgu bilim deseni ile desenlenmiştir. Araştırmaya Eskişehir Osmangazi Üniversitesi Eğitim Fakültesi’nde 2013-2014 öğretim yılında öğrenim gören 8 lisans öğrencisi katılmıştır.

The present research aimed to reveal principals’ opinions about professional maturity levels of teachers within the scope of maturity theory of Argyris.The research was carried out with survey model. It was conducted with qualitative research design which aims to examine the meanings inflicted from individuals’ experiences and to demonstrate the concepts in their natural environment in a realistic and holistic way. The study group of the research was determined using criterion sampling and maximum variety sampling methods. The study group consists of 12 principals who have at least 5 years of professional experience and who work in primary, secondary and high schools in Duzce province in 2016-2017 academic year. The fact that principals were chosen among the ones who have at least 5 years of experience results from the idea that their awareness of teacher maturity would be higher. Primary, secondary and high school principals were consulted in order to provide maximum variation. Semi-structured interview form was developed based on the maturity theory of Argyris. Principals mainly stated that teachers are passive both in educational and managerial processes in school and in their professional processes. They remarked that teachers cannot operate the work independently and that they demonstrate indifference to the job. They also observed that teachers behave restrictedly, have short term perceptions and do not have the inclination to make progress in their career. Therefore, principals are of the opinion that teachers have not been professionally mature in terms of seven variables of Argyris’s maturity theory. It can be concluded that teachers have not achieved professional maturity in teaching.Extended English abstract is in the end of PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetBu çalışmada, Chris Agyris’in “Olgunluk Kuramı” kapsamında, öğretmenlerin mesleki olgunluklarına ilişkin okul yöneticilerinin görüşlerini ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır.

Araştırmada veriler betimsel analiz tekniğiyle çözümlenmiştir. Araştırmanın çalışma gurubunu 2016-2017 eğitim-öğretim yılında Düzce ili ilkokul, ortaokul ve liselerde görev yapan ve en az beş yıllık görev süresi olan 12 okul müdürü oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunun belirlenmesinde amaçlı örnekleme yöntemlerinden ölçüt örnekleme ve maksimum çeşitlilik örnekleme yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada okul yöneticileri öğretmenlerin mesleki olgunlaşmalarının göstergeleri olan okuldaki eğitim öğretim ve yönetim süreçleri ile mesleki iş ve işlemlere karşı pasif oldukları, bağımsız yürütemedikleri, ilgisiz oldukları, duyarsızlık gösterdikleri, sınırlı davrandıkları, kısa dönemli bakış açısına sahip oldukları ve meslekte yükselme eğilimi taşımadıkları yönünde görüş belirtmişlerdir. Araştırmada öğretmenlerin yönetici görüşlerine göre gerekli olgunluğa sahip olmadıkları sonucuna varılabilir.
