Abstract

The present study explored the motives of teachers who voluntarily partici- pated in social work in the Vefa Support Groups, which was established to meet the needs of citizens aged 65 and over and those with chronic diseases who were restricted by the nationwide curfews as part of COVID-19 measures. The findings of the research designed as a multiple case study showed that some intrinsic mo- tives and personal characteristics encouraged teachers to participate voluntarily in pro-community activities. Parallel with the related literature, “willingness to help others,” “pro-social values,” “patriotism, loyalty to the country,” “develo- ping the community spirit, strengthening the community image, and setting a role model,” and “enjoying being involved” are the most frequently observed motives.

Özet

Bu çalışmada COVID-19 ile mücadele önlemleri kapsamında, ülke genelinde uygulanan sokağa çıkma kısıtlamalarında, kısıtlama getirilen 65 yaş ve üstü ile kronik rahatsızlığı bulunan vatandaşların gereksinimlerinin karşılanması amacıyla kurulan Vefa Sosyal Destek Grupları’nda gönüllü olarak görev alan öğretmenlerin toplum için çalışmak konusundaki motivasyonlarının nedenlerinin ortaya çıkarılması amaçlanmıştır. Çoklu durum çalışması deseni ile tasarlanan araştırma bulguları, bazı içsel motivasyon kaynakları ve kişisel özelliklerin öğretmenlerin toplum yanlısı faaliyetlere gönüllü katılmasını sağladığını göstermiştir. Alanyazın ile paralellik gösteren bulgulara göre “diğerlerine yardım etme isteği”, “toplum yanlısı değerler”, “vatanseverlik”, “ülkeye bağlılık”, “topluluk ruhunu geliştirmek”, “topluluk imajını güçlendirmek ve örnek olmak” ve gönüllü faaliyetlere “dâhil olmaktan keyif alma” en sık gözlenen motivlerdir.
