Educational system should teach tolerance to the individuals in a democratic society. Tolerance can be given through curricula in educational process. Social studies is one of the courses for conducting tolerance education. Skills and perspectives of teachers are important for tolerance education in social studies. The purpose of this study is to understand social studies teachers' perceptions of tolerance.
The quality of teachers, who are the practitioners of the education system, is an issue that needs to be emphasized. Today, accreditation studies are of great importance in terms of determining the problems experienced in teacher education programs, taking forward measures, and improving the quality of teacher education and teachers. In this study, it was aimed to understand how pre-service social studies teachers who participated in the accreditation evaluation process perceive the evaluation process and their experiences regarding the phenomenon. Therefore, one of the qualitative research designs, the "phenomenology" was employed. Within the scope of the research, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 pre-service social studies teachers who participated in the accreditation process, and the data obtained were analyzed with an inductive data analysis approach. As a result of the research, it was found that the perceptions of the preservice social studies teachers perceived the accreditation process as reviewing the education currently given in the program, improving the program, controlling it, bringing it into compliance with the standards and evaluating it. It has also been found that pre-service social studies teachers have gained experience in participating in the accreditation process, this experience helped them to make self-evaluation and self-assessment and gain a multi-faceted perspective. Pre-service social studies teachers also made suggestions about some issues came up during the meetings held by the accreditation team with students such as environment where the interviews took place, meeting one-on-one, meeting in a quiet environment, meeting students without dividing them into groups, spending more time on student meetings, and including questions for socio-cultural activities. In addition, the pre-service social studies teachers who participated in the research explained their expectations regarding the accredited Social Studies Teacher Education Program as being more encouraged in reading more books as a preparation for the courses, in participating in scientific activities and research projects, and being guided by academicians more effectively. Based on the findings obtained from the research, there were implications in terms of the accreditation team, interview questions, and social environment.
Deveci danışmanlığında yürüttüğü "Sosyal bilgiler dersinde aile katılımına dayalı etkinliklerden yararlanma: Bir eylem araştırması" başlıklı doktora tezinden üretilmiştir.
Günümüzde en çok kullanılan mobil cihazlar akıllı telefonlardır. Akıllı telefonları öğrenme-öğretme ortamlarında kullanmak okul ile yaşamın birbirine yaklaştırılmasında önemli katkılar sağlayabilecektir. Çok disiplinli yapısı sayesinde sosyal bilgiler dersi, akıllı telefonların kullanılabilmesi açısından zengin bir ortam ve çeşitlilik sunmaktadır. National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) gibi sosyal bilgiler dersine yön veren toplulukların raporları ve bu alanda yapılan akademik çalışmalar, teknolojinin önümüzdeki yıllarda eğitim alanında ve sosyal bilgiler dersinde daha etkin kullanılmaya başlanacağına dikkat çekmektedir. Araştırmada "sosyal bilgiler öğretmen adaylarının sosyal bilgiler dersinde akıllı telefonlarda kullanılan uygulamalardan yararlanmaya ilişkin görüşleri ve deneyimleri nelerdir?" sorusuna yanıt aranmaktadır. Nitel araştırma yaklaşımına dayalı olarak gerçekleştirilen bu araştırma olgubilim deseninde tasarlanmıştır. Araştırmanın katılımcıları ölçüt örnekleme tekniğine göre belirlenmiştir. Araştırma verileri yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniği ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin çözümlenmesinde tümevarım analizi tekniği kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda öğretmen adaylarının akıllı telefon uygulamalarından günlük yaşamlarında gündemi takip etme, bilgiye ulaşma ve bilgi depolama, müzik dinleme, fotoğraf ve video çekme amacıyla yararlandıkları ortaya çıkmıştır. Araştırmada öğretmen adaylarının, sosyal bilgiler dersinde öğretmenlerin akıllı telefon uygulamalarından etkili bir biçimde yararlanabileceğini vurguladıkları sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Araştırma sonunda, araştırma bulgularına dayalı öneriler sunulmuştur.
