Abstract

This study investigated Turkish Language teachers’ posts in a Facebook group regarding professional development during an academic year. This study was designed to be a case study, which employed qualitative research methods. The teachers whose posts were the most relevant to professional development were selected among the three Facebook groups with the highest number of members. The teachers’ posts shared during the 2019-2020 academic year were obtained by document analysis. We analyzed the data qualitatively with content analysis. The codes were processed and analyzed by using MAXQDA Analytics Pro 2020 program. The posts generated 393 codes, and the content analysis revealed 36 categories and six themes. We determined the frequency of the codes for each theme and category. The six themes were “Material,” “Content Knowledge,” “Teaching Process,” “Other,” “Official Process,” and “Culture and Art” from the most frequent to the least frequent. Through the posts in a Facebook group, we determined codes that supported Turkish teachers’ professional development and provided suggestions for online professional development.

从专业发展角度分析土耳其语教师在Facebook群组中的帖子:个案研究

本研究调查了土耳其语教师在Facebook群组中关于一学年专业发展的帖子。本研究为个案研究，采用定性研究方法。帖子与专业发展最相关的教师从三个成员人数最多的Facebook小组中选出。通过文献分析获得2019-2020学年共享的教师岗位。采用内容分析对数据进行定性分析。使用MAXQDA Analytics Pro 2020程序对代码进行处理和分析。这些帖子产生了393个代码，内容分析揭示了36个类别和6个主题。我们确定了每个主题和类别的代码频率。六个主题依次为“物质”、“内容知识”、“教学过程”、“其他”、“官方过程”和“文化艺术”。通过Facebook小组的帖子，我们确定了支持土耳其教师专业发展的代码，并为在线专业发展提供了建议。
