Okul Öncesi Öğretmenlerinin İstenmeyen Davranışlar Hakkındaki Görüşleri

Bu araştırmada, okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin sınıf içinde istenmeyen davranışlara ilişkin görüşlerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda 40 okul öncesi öğretmeniyle görüşme gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma grubu oluşturtulurken kolay ulaşılabilir durum örneklemesinden yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden tekli durum çalışması deseniyle yürütülmüştür. Yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme formlarıyla okul öncesi öğretmenlerine sınıf içinde istenmeyen davranışlara ilişkin görüşleri sorulmuştur. Öğretmenlerden alınan cevaplar içerik analizi yoluyla çözümlenmiştir. Elde edilen veriler, kategorisel analiz tekniği kullanılarak çözümlenmiştir. Bulgular; en sık karşılaşılan istenmeyen davranışlar, kısa vadeli istenmeyen davranışlara müdahale yöntemleri, uzun vadeli istenmeyen davranışlara müdahale yöntemleri olarak temalandırılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre; öğretmenlerin sınıflarında en sık karşılaştıkları istenmeyen davranışın “yönergelere uymama” olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öğretmenlerin istenmeyen davranışlara yönelik kısa vadeli çözüm önerileri incelendiğinde ise kullanılan 9 farklı strateji olduğu görülmüş, en sık “ödül/ceza” yöntemine başvurduklarını belirtmişlerdir. Öğretmenlerin istenmeyen davranışlara yönelik uzun vadeli çözüm önerileri incelendiğinde ise toplamda 17 farklı stratejinin ifade edildiği görülmüş, en sık “aileyle birlikte çözüm yolları aradıkları”nı dile getirmişlerdir
