Abstract

Bu araştırmanın amacı; okul yöneticilerinin değerlendirilmesi ve okul gelişiminin sağlanması amacıyla Amerikan İlköğretim Okulu Yöneticileri Ulusal Derneği (National Association of Elementary School Principals [NAESP]) ve Amerikan Ortaöğretim Okulu Yöneticileri Ulusal Derneği (National Association of Secondary School Principals [NASSP]) (2012) tarafından sunulan çerçevenin tanıtılması ve bu çerçeveye ilişkin okul yöneticilerinin görüşlerinin incelenmesidir. Araştırmanın katılımcıları Gaziantep ilindeki ilköğretim ve ortaöğretim kurumlarında görev yapan 10 okul yöneticisinden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler yoluyla toplanmış ve içerik analizi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda; okul yöneticilerinin, değerlendirilme süreçlerinde okul özellikleri ve yönetici becerileri arasındaki farklılıkların dikkate alınması gerektiğini düşündükleri tespit edilmiştir. Ortak hedef belirleme, öğretmenlerin mesleki gelişimini yönlendirme, veli katılımını ve işbirliğini sağlama konuları değerlendirme alanlarında yer alması gereken konular arasında öne çıkmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda; okul müdürlerine yönelik değerlendirmelerin okulların farklı özelliklerini dikkate alarak, çoklu değerlendirme anlayışıyla ve okul gelişim planı ve mesleki gelişim planlarının kullanımıyla yapılması önerilmektedir
