Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to determine primary school teachers' views related to the effect of in-service training programs on teaching-learning process. The research study group consists of 120 primary school teachers working in the formal primary schools. "The Determination of Teachers' Views related to the Effect of In-Service Training Programs on Teaching-Learning Process Survey" was used as the data collection tool in the study. The research results are as follows: The majority of the participants argue that in-service training supports the development of the education system; that in-service training programs have a purpose; that in-service training increases teachers' professional knowledge and skills. On the other hand, only half of the participants argue that in-service training meets teachers' educational needs. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
