Managers are expected to carry various leadership qualities in order to raise the human profiles (professionals) required by society. Leadership becomes even more important when it comes to education as it shapes our future. In educational institutions, especially transformational leadership (TL) and instructional leadership (IL) have a particular importance and play an active role in conveying a classical managerial approach. This as well influences the sustainability of the educational institutions. The managers with these two leadership qualities will contribute to a reduction in their employees’ perceptions of organizational silence (OS) and an increase in the perception of organizational attractiveness (OA). In this paper, we analyzed the effects of transformational and instructional leadership styles of the managers of high schools, which contain the aviation field of study, and their effects on organizational attractiveness and organizational silence. The universe of this study is 1537 teachers working in 21 public high schools in the 2017–2018 academic year in Turkey, and the sample is 749 teachers who responded to the survey. We used a relational model of quantitative research methods. In this study, the Transformational Leadership Scale and the Instructional Leadership Scale were used to determine the leadership styles of the managers according to the perceptions of the teachers, while the Organizational Attractiveness Scale and the Organizational Silence Scale were used to determine the perceived organizational attractiveness and organizational silence of the teachers. Within the scope of reliability analysis, all dimensions of the scales used were found to be reliable. SPSS 24.0 and LISREL 8.1 package programs were used in the analysis of the research data and the relations between the variables were examined by using the Structural Equation Model. As the main finding is the existence of correlation of the elements, specifically, it was found that transformational and instructional leadership have positive effect with same-direction on organizational attractiveness, positive effect with inverse-direction on organizational silence, as well as positive effect with inverse-direction between organizational silence and organizational attractiveness. These findings provide an additional layer of factors to be analyzed that might affect the sustainability of educational institutions. We propose further studies to be carried out on development of new correlation models between sustainability elements on one side, and organizational silence or organizational attractiveness on the other.
Changes in the primary education programme during the transition period from the agricultural society to the industrial society of the Turkish Cypriots in the Ottoman and British administrations in Cyprus were evaluated in terms of educational programs, number of students and modern agriculture course in this study. Following the Ottoman conquest of island, the educational institutions were also regulated like every other organisation in the island according to the needs. After the British took over the island administration from the Ottoman State, they maintain some of the applications from the old administration as well as replacing some of them according to their own administrative and administrative understandings. During the British administration, the education in the Turkish Cypriot community had switched from the religion intensive curriculum to modern education. This study aimed to reflect the details of new education system during the British administration in the island. In addition, as an example of the socialization of education, the increase in the number of students in education and the situation of female students in this increase have been emphasized in this study. The information obtained by using the first-hand resources of the research period, Blue Book, and education reports, is presented. As a result, the changes made in the Turkish Cypriot Education system have affected the Turkish Cypriot community socially, culturally and politically.
Öz Kıbrıs, Akdeniz'de bulunduğu özel konum nedeniyle tarih boyunca birçok medeniyetin ilgisini çekmiştir. Ada, 16. yüzyılın ikinci çeyreğinde Osmanlı yönetimine, 19. yüzyılın sonlarına doğru ise İngiltere idaresine girmiştir. Osmanlı Devleti'nin adayı fethetmesiyle birlikte Doğu Akdeniz'in bu güzide yerinde de Türk varlığı başlamış ve günümüze kadar yaşamaya devam etmiştir. 1877-78 Osmanlı Rus Savaşı sonrasında Osmanlı Devleti'nin Rus Çarlığına yenilmesi Akdeniz'deki dengeleri de değiştirmiştir. Birleşik Krallık Rusya karşısında yeni bir stratejik güvenlik konseptine geçtiği için savunma hattını Karadeniz'den Akdeniz'e çekmiş ve bu bağlamda adayı Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'ndan almıştır. İngilizler ada idaresini kontrol etmeye başladıktan sonra ilk düzenlemeye gittikleri konulardan birisi de eğitim olmuştur. İlk başlarda İngilizler adada yaşayan toplumların tepkisini çekmemek için var olan eğitim yapısında çok fazla değişikliğe gitmemişlerdir. Fakat ilerleyen yıllarda adayı daha merkeziyetçi bir idari yapı ile yöneterek kendilerine bağlı topluluklar yaratmak istemişlerdir. İngiliz idaresinde İngiltere'ye bağlı kalan Kıbrıslı Türk eğitimcilerden biri de İbrahim Hakkı'dır. İbrahim Bey, 1904 yılında Maarif Dairesinde Müfettiş Muavini olarak göreve başlayarak sırasıyla Müslüman/Türk Maarif Encümenliği Tercümanı ve Türk Okulları Müfettişliği görevlerinde bulunmuştur. Uzun yıllar müfettişlik görevini sürdüren İbrahim Hakkı Bey, bu görevinden 1949 yılında emekli olmuştur. Bu arada İbrahim Hakkı yazdığı ders kitaplarıyla da Kıbrıs Türk eğitim hayatına önemli katkılar sağlamıştır. Sonuç olarak İbrahim Bey'in Kıbrıs eğitim tarihine birçok yönden etkisi olmuştur.
In postmodern education philosophy, the areas of interest of students, studentoriented teaching and regulating learning-teaching environments according to the student are essential. Based on this viewpoint, the purpose of this research is to evaluate the student-related factors in terms of Cyprus history. The aim is to determine the attitudes of students towards Cyprus history (in the case of local-oral history) and to explore the student-related problems from the perspective of teachers in particular. In the study, the attitude levels of students are determined and the problems experienced in Cyprus history are described; furthermore, this is followed by a discussion on postmodern education and local-oral history education. Postmodern education in the case of Cyprus history is evaluated. In this context, the problem sentence of the research is as follows: "What are the student and teacher opinions in regard to local and oral Cyprus history education on the basis of postmodern education?" The model of this study is a mixed research method, which is based on both quantitative and qualitative data. Stratified random sampling was used in this study and a total of 800 secondary and high school students from five different districts of Cyprus were reached.
