The study was conducted with 238 teachers working in Batman province in the 2019-2020 academic year. Two different methods were used to determine the sample. First of all, it was taken into consideration that the teachers had been working with the current principal for at least 6 months (criterion sampling) and teachers who met this criterion were reached through convenient sampling method. As data collection tools, “School Principals’ Instructional Management Rating Scale”, “Teachers’ Professional Engagement Scale” and “Teacher Subjective Well-being Scale” were used. The findings showed that teachers perceived the instructional leadership behaviors of school principals as sufficient. Additionally, teachers’ subjective well-being and professional engagement are high. It was also found that instructional leadership is a significant predictor of subjective well-being and subjective well-being of professional engagement; however, it was determined that instructional leadership did not significantly predict professional engagement. Subjective well-being has a mediator role in the relationship between instructional leadership and professional engagement. The findings which are anticipated to contribute to existing literature are discussed and based on them some suggestions are made for both policy makers and practitioners.

Firstly, the context which facilitates the incidents is discussed. Then, the definition of cyberbullying, its distinctive features, forms of cyberbullying, and possible outcomes for the victims are briefly mentioned. And lastly, the main point of the chapter, which is the prevention strategies at school, is discussed based on the literature. When you enter the term “cyberbullying” in Google Academic and restrict the search for years 2000-2009, you get 3,720 results in .08 seconds. On the other hand, when you restrict the search for years between 2010-2019, you get 26,300 results in .09 seconds, which can be considered as the clear evidence of a globally growing interest in cyberbullying both as a research area and as a problem for parents, educators, and psychologists.

To this end, current study employed single screening model which is one of quantitative designs. The study was conducted on two different study groups and population. The data obtained from the first and second study groups were used to run exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses of the scale developed in scope of current study, respectively. On the other hand, the data from population was used for descriptive statistics and comparing the mean scores of groups based on demographics. The findings indicated that teachers had a “I agree” level change fatigue. Additionally, demographics such as gender, educational level, type of school (primary, secondary or high school), district that the school is located, and marital status did not create a statistically significant difference in teachers change fatigue level while experience and the faculty graduated did. The teachers with 10 years and below experience had a higher level of change fatigue than the teachers with 16 years and above experience. The teachers graduating from education faculties had a higher level of change fatigue than the teachers from other faculties. Based on the findings, it can be suggested that there should be fewer change initiatives in Turkish educational system. Also, teachers with less experience and graduates of education faculties should be given special guidance during multiple change initiatives.

Olgubilim deseninde kurgulanan araştırmada veri toplama süreci yüz yüze ve çevrim içi yürütülmüştür. Maksimum çeşitlilik örneklemesinden yararlanılarak 24 öğretmene ulaşılmıştır. Katılımcılara beş adet açık uçlu soru sorulmuş ve veri analizinde içerik analizi yöntemine başvurulmuştur. Katılımcı görüşleri kodlanmış ve ortak kodlar temelinde kategoriler ile alt kategoriler oluşturulmuştur. Bulguların geçerliliği araştırmacı bakış açısı, katılımcı bakış açısı ve okuyucu bakış açısı ile teyit edilmiş; güvenirlik kapsamında ise araştırmacılar arası uyumu belirlemek için Kappa güvenirlik katsayısı hesaplanmıştır. Analizler sonucunda “ders denetimi öncesi”, “ders denetimi sırası”, “ders denetimi sonrası”, “ders denetimi sırasındaki hisler” ve “ders denetimine ilişkin öneriler” olmak üzere beş kategori ortaya çıkmıştır. İlgili kategoriler altında ise “denetim öncesi bilgile...

The sample of the study consists of 248 pre-service teachers studying in three different universities (two states and one private) in Turkey in the academic year 2020-2021. They were selected through convenience sampling. The "Work Values Scale" and “Lifelong Learning Tendencies Scale” were used as data collection tools. Arithmetic means, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple linear regression analyses were conducted. The findings indicated that extrinsic, social and leisure rewards were “fairly important” and intrinsic rewards were “very important” for pre-service teachers. On the other hand, pre-service teachers' opinion on willingness to learn for openness to improvement. There were weak and moderate level, positive and significant correlations between the dimensions of work values and lifelong learning tendencies. The regression analy...

The sample consists of 267 teachers working in the province of Batman during the 2021-2022 academic year. They were reached through convenient sampling. Two data collection tools were used in the study. To measure teachers’ demoralization level, the “Teacher Demoralization in Educational Policy Context Scale” and the school effectiveness level “Perceived School Effectiveness Scale” were adopted. The demoralization scale was a self-reported one, and school effectiveness was measured based on teacher perceptions. Since the data were normally distributed, parametric tests were employed. Within the descriptive statistics, means and standard deviations were calculated, and Pearson correlation coefficients, simple and multiple regression analysis were conducted to reveal the associations between variables. The findings revealed that teachers were moderately demoralized, and th...
