Mobil Planetaryum Etkinliği: Ortaokul Öğretmenlerinin Görüşlerinin İncelenmesi

Bu çalışmanın amacı, öğrencileriyle birlikte okul ortamında düzenlenen mobil planetaryum etkinliğine katılan ortaokul öğretmenlerinin etkinlik hakkındaki görüşlerini incelemektir. Çalışmada nitel bütüncül tek durum deseni kullanılmıştır. Ölçüt örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak toplam sekiz ortaokul öğretmeni çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Öğretmenlerin mobil planetaryum etkinliğine yönelik görüşleri, derinlemesine yapılan yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler aracılığıyla incelenmiştir. Çalışma kapsamında ayrıca etkinlik çerçevesinde öğretmenlerin beklenen rollerine yönelik düşünceleri tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. İçerik analizi yöntemiyle elde edilen bulgular, öğretmenlerin tamamının ailenin çocuğuyla birlikte etkinliğe katılımına yönelik olumlu görüşe sahip olduklarını göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte katılımcı öğretmenler, etkinliğin okul ortamında yapılmasının maliyet açısından avantajlı olduğunu belirtmişlerdir. Öte yandan öğretmenlerin bu tür ortamlardaki beklenen rollerinin alanyazında değinilen bazı öğretmen rolleriyle benzerlik gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Bu bağlamda öğretmenlerin beklenen rolleri; öğrencileri tanıma, öğrencilerin hazırlığı, etkinliğe dâhil olma ve ziyaret sonrası yapılacaklar olmak üzere dört ayrı kategoride tartışılmıştır. Okul ortamında düzenlenen mobil planetaryum etkinliğinin öğretmen gözünden değerlendirildiği bu çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçların gelecekteki benzer çalışmalara ışık tutacağı düşünülmektedir.
