Abstract

In this study, we aimed to examine preservice teachers' sentiments toward students with special needs, attitudes, and concerns about inclusive education in terms of a number of demographic variables. These demographics included major area, grade level, gender, interaction with disabled people, training for inclusive education, self-confidence for teaching in inclusive classrooms, and teaching experience in inclusive classrooms. Main data were collected only from first and second-year preservice teachers. The result indicated that although some findings matched those observed in earlier studies, others did not support the previous research. The possible reasons were discussed with reference to teacher education programs implemented in Turkey.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, öğretmen adaylarının özel gereksinimli öğrenciler hakkındaki düşüncelerini ve kaynaştırma eğitimine yönelik tutum ve kaygılarını çeşitli demografik değişkenler açısından incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Bu demografik değişkenler öğrenim görülen bölüm, sınıf düzeyi, cinsiyet, engelli kişilerle olan etkileşim, kaynaştırma konusunda alınan eğitim, kaynaştırma sınıflarında eğitim verme konusunda kendine güven ve kaynaştırma sınıflarında öğretme deneyimini içermektedir. Veriler yalnızca birinci ve ikinci sınıftaki öğretmen adaylarından elde edilmiştir. Bazı bulgular alan yazında var olan çalışmaları destekler yönde iken diğerleri önceki araştırmaların bulgularıyla eşleşmemiştir. Bulgular Türkiye'de uygulanan öğretmen yetiştirme programları göz önünde bulundurularak tartışılmıştır.
