Öğretim Elemanlarının Yaşamboyu Öğrenmeye Yönelik Görüşleri

Bu çalışmanın amacı, öğretim elemanlarının yaşamboyu öğrenmeye yönelik düşüncelerini ve yaşamboyu öğrenme özelliklerini etkileyen faktörleri ortaya koymaktır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda söz konusu araştırma olgu bilim deseni ile desenlenmiştir. Araştırmanın örneklemi 2014-2015 eğitim-öğretim yılının güz döneminde Anadolu Üniversitesi'nin 17 fakültesinde faaliyet göstermekte olan profesör, doçent, yardımcı doçent ve araştırma görevlileri arasından seçilen 65 katılımcıdan oluşmaktadır. Söz konusu katılımcıların belirlenmesinde gönüllülük esası temelinde hareket edilmiş ve öğretim üyelerinin evren içindeki oransal dağılımına göre amaçlı örneklem alınmıştır. Araştırmanda ulaşılan veriler, araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu ve yazılı görüşme formu kullanılarak elde edilmiş ve içerik analizi ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda, öğretim elemanlarının yaşamboyu öğrenme kapsamında mesleki etkinliklere, sosyal etkinliklere ve kişisel gelişim etkinliklerine katıldıkları belirlenmiştir. Söz konusu sürece aktif katılımlarında akademisyenlerin kişisel, mesleki, kurumsal, toplumsal, akademik sistemin yapısı, teknoloji, bürokrasi ve yetersiz olanaklardan kaynaklı sorunlar yaşadıkları belirlenmiştir. Öğretim elemanları, yaşamboyu öğrenmenin kişisel, mesleki ve sosyaltoplumsal açılardan, kendileri için önemli olduğunu ifade etmişlerdir. Bununla birlikte katılımcılar, yaşamboyu öğrenmeyi farklı boyutlarıyla tanımlamışlardır. Çalışmanın katılımcıları, öğretim elemanlarının yaşamboyu öğrenme özelliklerinin bireysel ve çevresel faktörlerden etkilendiğini belirtmişlerdir. Araştırmanın sonunda ulaşılan bulgular temelinde yüksek eğitim kurumları ve araştırmacılara yönelik çeşitli öneriler getirilmiştir

Faculty Members' Point of Views Regarding Lifelong Learning

The sampling of the research consisted of 65 academicians who are professors, associate professors, assistant professors and research assistants from 17 faculties of Anadolu University in fall term of 20142015 education year. These participants have been selected by using purposive sampling method according to the proportional distribution of faculty members in the universe of study. Researchers designed semi-structured interview form and written-interview form to collect qualitative data. Collected data was analyzed by using content analysis. Based on the themes and codes in which analysis result achieved, faculty members' thoughts about lifelong learning and factors which effect faculty members' lifelong learning characteristics were determined.
