Abstract

This paper presents an overview of the current trends and practices in teacher professional development (PD). The paper is intended to provide teachers, teacher educators, and trainers with the theories and practices discussed in the literature over the last 25 years. The data were selected from resources by entering relevant search phrases in journal databases, library catalogs, and websites on teacher PD. The paper primarily addresses the principles of effective PD and the models of PD. Next, different kinds of PD, including the practices that can enable teachers to improve their knowledge and skills as well as impacting student learning, are analyzed to determine the common denominators of those kinds that are considered effective in the literature. The paper also provides some implications that will be of value to researchers, teachers, and teacher trainers. The overview reveals that effective PD must involve teachers in decision-making as well as encourage reflection, classroom research, and collaboration. The paper further mentions that effective PD programs should include students and their perceptions in addition to evaluation and follow-up support in order to achieve the desired outcomes.

Özet

Bu makale öğretmenlerin mesleki gelişimlerindeki (MG) güncel eğilimlerin ve uygulamaların genel bir değerlendirmesini sunmaktadır. Makalenin amacı, öğretmenlere, öğretmen eğiticilerine ve eğitimcilere literatürde son 25 yılda tartışılan teorileri ve uygulamaları sunmaktır. Veriler; öğretmenlerin mesleki gelişimi üzerine olan dergi veri tabanlarına, kütüphane kataloglarına ve internet sitelerine ilgili sözcük grupları girilip kaynaklara ulaşılarak toplanmıştır. Bu makale, öncelikle etkili MG’nin ve MG modellerinin prensiplerine değinmektedir. Ardından literatürde etkili olduğu belirtilen MG çeşitlerinin ortak paydalarını belirlemek amacıyla ilgili MG çeşitleri incelenmiştir. Bu MG çeşitleri, öğrencilerin öğrenimini etkilediği kadar öğretmenlerin bilgi ve becerilerini geliştirmesini de sağlayan uygulamaları da içermektedir. Bu makale ayrıca araştırmacılar, öğretmenler ve öğretmen eğiticileri için değerli olacak sonuçları ve çıkarımları da sunmaktadır. Genel değerlendirme, etkili bir MG’nin hem yansıtıcı düşünmeyi, sınıf araştırmasını ve işbirliğini teşvik etmesi, hem de öğretmenleri karar verme sürecine dahil etmesi gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Makale, bunlarla birlikte, etkili MG programlarının istenen sonuçlara ulaşabilmesi için, değerlendirme, izlem, öğrenciler ve öğrencilerin algılarını da içermesi gerektiğine eğilmektedir.
