Araştırma Yapmanın İngilizce’yi Yabancı Dil Olarak Öğreten Öğretmenlerin Öğretmen Araştırması açısından Motivasyonlarına ve Yeterliliklerine Etkisi

Bu araştırmanın amacı, araştırma yapan öğretmenlerin motive ve yeterli araştırmacı öğretmen olarak gelişimlerine yardım edipetmediğinin araştırılmasıdır. Araştırmaya İngilizceyi yabancı dil olarak öğreten 17 öğretmen katılmıştır. Araştıma özellikle katılımcıların hizmet-içi eğitim dersinin sonunda motivasyon ve yeterliliklerinde farklılık olup olmadığını sorgulamaktadır.Araştırma verileri bu çalışma için düzenlenen Araştırma Motivasyonu ve Araştırma Yeterliliği anketlerinin yanısıra diğer niteliksel kaynaklarla toplanmıştır (örn. Mülakat, kompozisyon). Sonuçlara göre katılımcıların yeterlilik düzeyinde anlamlı bir artışmeydana gelirken motivasyon düzeylerinde istatistiki açıdan anlamlı bir değişim ortaya koymamaktadır. Sonuçlar dpğrultusunda öğretmen eğiticileri, yabancı dil öğretmenleri, öğretmen eğitimi bölümleri ve yükseklisans programları için önemli öneriler sunmaktadır.

Effect of Research Engagement on EFL Teachers’ Motivation for and Efficacy in Teacher-Research

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether research engagement helps participating teachers develop as motivated and efficacious teacher-researchers. Seventeen non-native English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers participated in the study. The study specifically aimed to examine if there are any differences in participants’ motivation for research and efficacy in research at the end of the INSET course. Data came from Motivation for and Efficacy in Research questionnaires which were originally developed for the purposes of this study and other sources (i.e. interviews, essays). The findings of the study indicated that even though the participants’ efficacy for research engagement increased significantly, the instruction did not elicit any statistically significant changes in their motivation levels. Results also revealed significant implications for teacher educators, EFL teachers, teacher education departments and MA programs.
