Abstract

The aim of this
study was to conduct a needs analysis regarding to develop Instructional
Planning and Evaluation in course. This study was based on case study design.
Eight research assistants and two instructors participated in this study.
Interview method was used in data collection and inductive content analysis
approach was adopted in data analysis. The result of the analysis identified
that goals, content, learning-teaching and measurement-evaluation processes of
instructional planning and evaluation course did not completely meet the needs
and expectations of research assistants. It was seen that this situation
resulted from content and implementations that were not integrated into higher
education and field-specific situations.

Yükseköğretimde Öğretim Yeterlikleri: Öğretimde Planlama ve Değerlendirme Dersinin Geliştirilmesine Yönelik Bir İhtiyaç Analizi

Abstract

Araştırmanın amacı, öğretimde planlama ve
değerlendirme dersinin geliştirilmesine yönelik bir ihtiyaç analizi çalışması
yapılmasıdır. Araştırma, durum çalışması yöntemiyle desenlenmiştir.
Araştırmanın katılımcılarını maksimum çeşitlilik örneklemesiyle seçilmiş sekiz
araştırma görevlisi ve ölçüt örnekleme yöntemine göre belirlenmiş iki öğretim
elemanı oluşturmuştur. Verilerin toplanmasında görüşme yöntemi kullanılmış,
veriler araştırmacılar tarafından hazırlanan iki farklı yarı yapılandırılmış
görüşme formu aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. 
Verilerin analizinde ise tümevarımsal içerik analizi yaklaşımından
yararlanılmıştır. Analiz sonucunda; öğretimde planlama ve değerlendirme dersi
amaçlarının, içeriğinin, öğrenme-öğretme ve ölçme-değerlendirme süreçlerinin
araştırma görevlilerinin ihtiyaç ve beklentilerini tam anlamıyla karşılamadığı
belirlenmiştir. Bu durumun yükseköğretimle ve alana özgü durumlarla
bütünleştirilmeyen içerik ve uygulamalardan kaynaklandığı sonucuna
ulaşılmıştır.
