Abstract:

The aim of this research is to identify the opinions of teachers about the moral levels of their contribution to the teacher's efficiency. The work group of the research conducted in the quality research model, 2018-2019 educational year, consists of 20 teachers working in the Bolu or Anadolu high schools. The research data was collected through a semi-configured interview form, imaging and content analysis technique. According to the research, the vast majority of teachers are willing to cooperate in the activities carried out inside and outside the school, who are enthusiastically fulfilling the tasks and responsibilities expected from them, who are in positive relationships with their colleagues, who are happy with the successes of the school, who work in harmony with each other in the framework of respect, who are able to defend their institutions on the wrong criticisms and feelings formed in the institution, who believe in the school and who are proud of it. In addition, teachers have made their efforts to improve themselves, they have created their students original learning environments in their teaching activities, they have participated actively with a constructive and helpful attitude in situations where they consider it necessary to solve problems, the majority of them are willing to participate in meetings and events, they have performed education and teaching in harmony, and they have expressed positive opinions. The teachers who expressed negative opinions expressed that they were not happy in their schools, that they didn’t feel like they belong to their schools, that the school managers should strive to solve the problem, and that they don’t avoid criticism. It is believed that this situation does not form the feeling of belonging and commitment to the institutions of teachers and that their morality in the work environment is also low.
