Clinical Faculty Members in the Schools of Education in the United States: An Overview

Öz:

Amerika Birleşik Devletleri yükseköğretim sisteminde klinik öğretim üyeliği , farklı alan ve bölümlerde farklı akademik personelpozisyonlarını tanımlama amacı ile kullanıla gelmiştir. Bu çeşitliliğe rağmen, temelde, klinik öğretim üyeliği, teori ve pratik arasındakiboşluğu doldurmak ve profesyonel okullar veya meslek eğitimi veren fakülteler diye tanımladığımız yükseköğretim kurumlarına pratikve tecrübe bilgisi getirmesi için oluşturulmuş bir pozisyondur. Bu çalışma Amerika Birleşik Devletlerindeki eğitim fakültelerinde kliniköğretim üyeliği pozisyonunu, pozisyonun karakteristik özelliklerini, görev tanımını ve bu pozisyondaki öğretim üyelerinin sorunlarınıtartışmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada ayrıca, eğitim fakültelerindeki klinik öğretim üyeliğinin tıp ve hukuk fakültelerindeki kliniköğretim üyeliği pozisyonları ile karşılaştırması yapılarak pozisyonun eğitim fakültesine özgü sorunlarının ortaya çıkarılması hedeflenmiştir.Bu çalışmanın başlıca tavsiyelerinden biri pozisyonun geleceği için, klinik öğretim üyelerinin diğer akademik personelle aynı atanma veyükselme şart ve koşullarına tabi olmaya zorlanmaları yerine - ki kendilerine uymayan bir mekanizmadır - eğitim fakültelerinde de diğermesleki okullarda olduğu gibi pozisyona özgü kariyer ve akademik yükselme mekanizması kurulmasıdır. Bu sayede, hem klinik öğretimüyelerinin iş güvencesi, maaş ve yükselme ile ilgili karşılaştığı sorunlar büyük ölçüde çözüme kavuşacak hem de klinik olmayan öğretimüyelerinin kalite ile ilgili kaygıları giderilmiş olacaktır.

Amerika Birleşik Devletleri Eğitim Fakültelerinde Klinik Öğretim Üyeleri: Genel Bir Bakış

Öz:

In the United States of America, the term clinical faculty has been used to define different positions academic personnel hold in variousfields and job settings. Although it possesses different meanings, the main argument is that the clinical faculty position in general, isdesignated to bring practical knowledge and expertise to the professional schools by filling the gap between theory and practice. Schools ofeducation, as in other professional schools, also offer this type of clinical faculty position to provide practical knowledge to their studentswho will need it in their future lives as teachers, administrators and practitioners. This study aims to discuss the future of clinical faculty inschools of education through analyzing the position, in terms of job specifications, effectiveness, job requirements, personnel rights andthe issues this category of faculty encounters in a cross comparative way across the fields of education, law and medicine. One of the mainrecommendations of the paper is that the future of clinical faculty should be secured through creating a clinicaltenure - track facultypositions in schools of education as in other professional schools instead of keeping them under the general appointment and promotionrules and regulations with the other faculty members. In this way, both the clinical faculty members problems related to job security,compensation, and promotion and non-clinical faculty members concerns related to quality will be resolved.
