Özet
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of the inclusive preschool
classrooms by comparing the evaluations of both independent observers and
preschool teachers. The design of the study was a mixed method of qualitative and
quantitative research. The study was carried out in 40 inclusive preschool classrooms
in Ankara. Forty preschool teachers and 5 independent observers participated in the
study. Data were collected by using the information form and Classroom Quality
Measurement Form. The quantitative data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed
Rank Test which is appropriate in terms of the research design, and qualitative data
were analyzed using descriptive analysis method. As a result of the analyses, the
teachers regarded the classrooms as "adequate" in terms of quality, whereas
independent observers regarded the same classrooms as "inadequate" and there was
a significant difference between the scoring of teachers and independent observers.
Since it was seen that the quality of the inclusive preschool classrooms in the study
was low, it was thought that studies should be conducted to provide high-quality
programs to all children and especially for children with special needs.
