The tea he s participated in the study on a volunteer basis. The sampling of the qualitative dimension of the study consists of 26 teachers selected from among the 256 teachers. The data of the study were collected through the Professional Development Schools Scale and an interview form. The quantitative data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics and the qualitative data were analyzed by using the inductive content analysis. The findings of the study revealed that the teachers have positive opinions about professional development school applications, they want more developed school-university cooperation, and they think that teacher-academician and teacher-teacher relationships need to be developed. The opinions of academicians working in education faculties about professional development schools can be elicited. A pilot study of professional development school can be conducted in Turkey.

IJOESS Year: 8, Vol:8, Issue: 30 DECEMBER 2017 INTRODUCTION The common feature of the education systems of successful countries is that their teachers are qualified (Barber and Mourshed, 2007). The quality of teachers depends on their receiving pre-service and in-service training in line with the conditions of the age. To do so, teachers need to be professionally evaluated and in light of these evaluations, teacher training programs should be revised (Rosenholtz, 1985). In addition, inservice trainings should be organized for teachers to professionally renew themselves and these should be carried out in parallel with educational programs E işe , . In-service training activities in Turkey are planned and implemented considering the opinions of the central and the provincial units of the Ministry of National Education (MNE) in order to improve the knowledge and skills of teachers who work at schools and institutions affiliated to the (MNE), to improve their productivity, to prepare them for scientific and technological developments and for higher positions (MEB, 1994). In the studies addressing the in-service training in Turkey, it has been determined that there are many problems experienced while implementing in-service training. The main problems in this regard can be summarized as follows: there is a lack of emphasis on implications that teachers need; the methods used do not allow teacher active participation; the evaluation process is inadequate; scheduling and physical conditions are inconvenience; trainings are not planned on the basis of needs analysis; in-service training activities are conducted with o ded g oups a d i st u to s a e ot e pe ts i thei fields Sefe oğlu, Mu at a d Ak e e, ake ade uate use of these p og a s Ka a, Çep i a d Küçük, 2004) and in-se i e t ai i g a ti ities a e ot fu tio al at the desi ed le el A doğa , uş, ; . It is also e phasized that i -service training programs do not take into account regional and local differences and many teachers cannot Du ; Öze , ; Uça , ; . It is not possible for nonfunctional in-service training to contribute to the professional development of teachers. Ö e , Me toğlu, Saka a d Gü dal stated that despite i -service training programs and seminars, it seems possible to say that the inadequacies in teachers' professional content knowledge still persist. In light of the previous research findings, it is quite difficult to say that effective and efficient in-service training process is conducted in Turkey. Therefore, for in-service trainings to be effective, while efforts should be made to overcome the existing problems on the one hand, how in-service training programs are conducted all around the world should be examined and these programs should be adapted according to the socio-cultural structure of Turkey and to meet teacher needs. Thus, the analysis of one of the successful in-service training applications, the Professional Development Schools (PDSs) implemented in the United States, is believed to make important contributions to in-service training activities in Turkey. The PDSs was first used in medicine. Taking into account the successful results of this practice, a training group formed by faculty deans and academics representing 50 states set five main objectives for reorganizing teacher training (Miller, 2014). These objectives are; standardization of teacher training and the adherence of all teacher training institutions to the established standards; recognition of differences in teacher education, tea he s’ diplo as, tea he 2066 o it e t, tea he s' k o ledge a d skills; esta lishi g defe si le i tellectual Ulu ey, Ö., Yıldırı , K., Alpasla , M.

IJOESS Year: 8, Vol:8, Issue: 30 DECEMBER 2017 standards in acceptance to teaching profession and in educational requirements; establishing links between faculties and schools and making schools better places for teachers to work and learn. In order to achieve these objectives and to contribute positively to the development of teachers and administrators, the training group has established the PDSs system (Cozenza, 2010). The PDS refers to a broad concept that includes laboratory schools, cooperative schools, in-service learning and all other efforts (Wrong and Glass, 2009). While the PDSs have focused on school-university cooperation through school practicum, it has focused on the development of teachers and schools through group works and sharing by providing interregional school and university collaboration for professional developments of teachers. In the PDS, great importance is given to professional development of teachers through cooperation and sharing and common goals are determined and intensive efforts are made to achieve them (Early and Bubb, 2004). In PDSs, teachers are included in in-school and out-of-school activities, monitor trainee teachers and examine their out-of-class interactions and initiatives at schools (Teitel, 1997). The PDSs application makes an educational model functional in which a cooperation and sharing process are established between students intern, mentor teachers and university instructors coming together to assess the teaching practice application. Moreover, when pre-service teachers start their professional life, they get involved in a continuous professional development process including learning and teaching together with their colleagues in provincial schools. Thus, while teachers implement their creative practices at schools on the one hand, they share these practices with other teachers from different schools on the other hand. PDSs includes all professional development activities in which teachers actively participate and through which the quality of the teaching and learning process can be increased, teachers can develop their own knowledge and skills and reflect on their own attitudes (Bolam, 1993). In PDSs, teachers are actively involved in the in-service training activities from planning to implementation of the training process as an effective participant rather than being a listener. Teachers in this process have the opportunity to discuss how to shape learning-teaching processes more effectively by sharing in-class sample practices, effective methods they use, materials they develop and evaluation processes they use. One of the factors making PDSs effective is the establishment of a strong and cooperation-based structure between schools and universities (Teitel, 1997). But such a structure cannot be put into action effectively in Turkey. Universities in the US have professional development departments for the development of pre-service teachers and teachers, and the teaching staff in these departments take active roles in PDSs applications and are working in cooperation with schools and teachers. Thus, it can create strong links between schools and universities. In addition, universities take an active role in this process and put planned and programmed instructions into effect in line with the needs together with school administrators and teachers. When research on PDSs is examined, it is seen that it has made important contributions to the teacher education in different countries. The results of the research show that PDSs applications contribute to the emergence of teacher leadership and increase of leadership capacity, partnership, cooperation and counseling 2067 Ulu ey, Ö., Yıldırı , K., Alpasla , M. M. ve Aykaç, N. (2017). Tea hers’ Opi io s A out Professional Development Schools, International Journal Of Eurasia Social Sciences, Vol: 8, Issue: 30, pp. (20642082). IJOESS Year: 8, Vol:8, Issue: 30 DECEMBER 2017 in PDSs is an important factor for the increase of teacher capacity of leadership, they positively affect elementary school teachers' attitudes, enhance their achievements, encourage them to develop cooperation et ee g oups a d the suppo t offe ed ithi the s hool e ha e tea he s’ p ofessio al o pete e eliefs and makes important contributions to the professional development of teachers (Burrus, 2011; Cosenza, 2010; Gissy, 2010; Miller, 2014; Patterson, 2004; Wo, 2005). Considering the successful results of the PDSs model in different countries, it is thought that if this model is adapted to Turkey, it can make important contributions to the solution of the problems as regards teacher t ai i g a d tea he s’ p ofessio al de elop e t.

To this end, answers to the following questions were sought. 1. To what the extent do in-service teachers view the features of PDSs necessary to the Turkish educational system? 2. What a e the tea he s’ opi io s a out p ofessio al de elop e t s hools? METHOD The study employed the convergent design, one of the mixed method designs (Creswell, 2005, 2009; Creswell, Plano-Clark, Gutmann and Hanson, 2003). In this design, quantitative and qualitative dimensions are simultaneously implemented in a certain stage of the study and equal weight is assigned to these dimensions. The data collected from quantitative and qualitative dimensions are separately analyzed. Then the results are interpreted in combination (Creswell and Plano-Clark, 2014). The reason for the selection of the convergent design for the current study is the belief that data collected through only quantitative or qualitative methods do not allow precise explanations and collection of deep information. Therefore, while collecting data with the scale in the study, face-to-face interviews were also conducted by using a semi-structured interview form. The quantitative and qualitative data collected in the study were interpreted together in the conclusion section. Thus, more in-depth information was collected a out the tea he s’ opi io s elated to p ofessio al development schools. The study group of the quantitative dimension of the study is comprised of 256 teachers (98 males and 158 females) selected from among the teachers working in 21 elementary and secondary schools in the city of Muğla ea s of the o e ie t sa pli g ethod o a olu tee asis. F ae kel, Walle a d Hu stated that in cases where the sampling cannot be selected randomly or systematically, the sampling can be selected from reachable, ready human populations. The study group of the qualitative dimension of the study consists of 26 teachers who were willing to take part in interviews from among the 256 participants of the quantitative dimension. Of these 26 teachers, 14 are females and 12 are males. While the data of the quantitative dimension of the research were collected by the Professional Development Schools Scale 2068 Ulu ey, Ö., Yıldırı , K., Alpasla , M. M. ve Aykaç, N. (2017).

Analyzes conducted on data collected with the Professional Development Schools Scale showed that the Cronbach's Alpha reliability coefficient of the scale is 0.83. At the same time, the item-total test correlation for each item in the scale was found to be ranging from 0.65 to 0.68. Item loading values were found to be ranging from 0.58 to 0.76. Again, the fit values obtained after the CFA analysis performed on the actual data reaffirmed the single-factor structure. The goodness-of-fit values of the model obtained as a result of CFA are shown in Table 1. Table 1. Goodness-of-fit Values obtained from the Confirmatory Factor Analysis Conducted on the Data Collected from the Professional Development Schools Scale Model Single factor χ2 p df χ2/df TLI RMSA CFI SRMR 6.537 0.2574 5 1.3074 .99 0.035 .99 0.018 When Table 1 is examined, it is seen that the goodness-of-fit values of the single-factor model of the Professional Development Schools Scale show that the model (hypothesized model) fits well with its observed data. It can also be argued that the goodness-of-fit values are good for the single-factor structure (Hooper, Coughlan and Mullen, 2008; Kline, 2011). In order to get a deeper analysis of possible findings from the quantitative part of the study, interviews were done by using a semi-structured interview protocol. In the process of preparing the semi-structured interview form, several steps were followed. First, a pool of interview questions was created from the literature and previous studies and then, formed by selecting the appropriate questions for the purposes of the study. Next, opinions of experts in the field of teacher education and Turkish language, and of two in-service teachers were obtained for the appropriateness and clarity of the questions in the protocol. Lastly, after all feedbacks were obtained, the interview protocol was finalized. The data obtained from the quantitative part of the study were analyzed using descriptive analyzes (frequency, percentage, normality). The quantitative data were analyzed according to the deductive content analysis approach. For the content analysis, pre-numbered data texts were edited, read several times in order to gain an overview, and were encoded in two cycles. In the first cycle, the data were divided into meaningful sections by performing clear, in-vivo and descriptive coding. Then the second circle of the coding was started. At this stage, pattern, focus and axis coding was performed on the codes created in the first cycle. The codes were placed under the pre-determined themes. Then, the codes under the themes were interpreted by explaining the relationships with each other. By giving direct quotations, it was attempted to analyze cause and effect relationships. For the validity and reliability of the quantitative dimension of the study, strategies such as diversification, expert review, direct quotation, detailed description and joint coding of data were used (Lincoln and Guba, 2069 Ulu ey, Ö., Yıldırı , K., Alpasla , M. M. ve Aykaç, N. (2017). Tea hers’ Opi io s A out Professional Development Schools, International Journal Of Eurasia Social Sciences, Vol: 8, Issue: 30, pp. (20642082). IJOESS Year: 8, Vol:8, Issue: 30 DECEMBER 2017 1985). In this study, it was tried to fulfill the requirement of the diversification strategy by using more than one data collection tool. The data were collected from the teachers using quantitative and qualitative data collection tools. By examining the relationships between the findings, credibility of the study was tried to be established. Moreover, to enhance the credibility of the study, the academicians having information about the study and specialized on qualitative research methods were asked to examine the study in terms of its different aspects. In light of the feedbacks given by the academicians, final form of the study was given. The detailed description strategy was used to ensure the transferability of the study. The transferability refers to arrangement of the raw data according to the emerging themes and its transfer to the reader without adding any comments (Lincoln and Guba, 1985). In the current study, at the stage of reporting the findings, the data obtained from the interviews are presented without making any comments. The themes constructed as a result of the data analysis are supported with direct quotations. Great care was taken to explain each item in detail in the method and findings section to ensure the confirmability of the study. Two researchers worked in the analysis of the data to increase the consistency of the study. The two researchers coded the data together and the consistency of the codings was tested by using Miles a d Hu e a ’s i te -rater agreement formula and was found to be 0.86. This value shows that the study is reliable.

The teachers stated that there is no school-university cooperation (f=14) or there is an inadequate cooperation (f=8). The reason for this is shown to be the lack of connectedness between MEB and universities (f=4). Some quotations related to these findings are given below. K1: (There is no school-university cooperation) Even if there is, I do not know. K5: I certainly do not find school-university cooperation enough. I think there is a lack of connectedness between the MNE and universities. The teachers stated their opinions about the content of school-university cooperation. The teachers are of the opinion that their professional (f=13) and content knowledge (f=12) should be updated and they want to learn new models and approaches (f=2), new methods and techniques (f=1) and ways of giving more effective instruction (f=1). Some quotations related to these findings are given below. K7: One of the most remarkable disadvantages of the Ministry of National Education is to condemn us to becoming worse in our profession over time. In the national education, you can spend many years on teaching few pieces of information. That is, you can continue teaching few subjects without having to add anything and nobody complains about it. On the other hand, university instructors have to continuously renew themselves. Otherwise, they cannot go on working at university. University instructors should educate us on some topics. K16: I am a science teacher. There can be cooperation between science teachers and science instructors from universities; for example, about how to use the laboratory. K4: We need instruction about the new educational models. Otherwise, we always teach in the same way. K2: We can conduct experiments that will be engaging for students in cooperation with university instructors, they will be very useful. The teachers made some suggestions about the establishment of school-university cooperation. In this regard, 2071 Ulu ey, Ö., Yıldırı , K., Alpasla , M. M. ve Aykaç, N. (2017).

The information you can get in such an environment is very limited. You do not have the slightest chance to ask any question. It should be in smaller groups, so that there can be some interaction. K1: If universities provide information, increase their activities on problems at schools and in real life and then present their findings to us, it will be more useful. K25: The school administration should explain why it is important to increase our participation. K11: Real experts should give these trainings, qualified people on their subject. There should be applications. Some real contributions should be made to the teacher. They should be evaluated, feedbacks should be collected and they should be revised. The teacher stated that some problems are experienced in professional development in terms of establishing cooperation between the teacher and the instructor. Teachers think that it is unnecessary to utilize the experiences of instructors (f=5) and instructors are not knowledgeable about the applications at school (f=4).

Even in breaks, we share information about our problems and what we can do. When there are teachers from more than one branch in the tea hers’ roo , the topi s of o ersatio e o e ore ge eral. Therefore, for ea h ra h, a special room can be allocated. This can be very useful at least in terms of planning. It was determined that teachers do not share information in formal meetings but as in the professional development schools, they share information in informal gatherings. Therefore, it is understood that some teachers want to share with their colleagues. In this connection, the teachers made some suggestions to develop their interactions with other teachers. They stated that teachers should share their good practices (f=17), methods that make difference in teaching (f=14), environments should be created for teachers to make use of othe tea he s’ e pe ie es f= , a h tea he s’ eeti gs should e o ga ized f= a d good p a ti es i tea hi g i the lass a d st ategies that d a stude ts’ atte tio .

RESULT AND CONCLUSIONS In the 21st century, teachers are expected to adapt new technology, teaching and learning methods, and information into their teaching practices at classrooms. This expectation requires teachers to consistently develop their skills and knowledge in order for them to increase the effectiveness of their teaching at classrooms. To achieve this, teachers should be provided professional development opportunities at preservice teacher education programs and during their service at schools. In this study, we aimed to explore Turkish in-se i e tea he s’ ideas a out PDSs, hi h is a p ofessio al de elop e t p og a that elies o the collaboration between university and schools in the US. To address the study purposes, a convergent mixed methods research design was utilized. 2074 Ulu ey, Ö., Yıldırı , K., Alpasla , M. M. ve Aykaç, N. (2017).

IJOESS Year: 8, Vol:8, Issue: 30 DECEMBER 2017 The results of this study are important for teacher education in Turkey for two reasons. First, exploring inse i e tea he s’ ie s o PDSs ould help poli ake s a d tea he edu ato s ho ould like to adapt PDSs in the US into Turkey. Lastly, this would help researchers and policy makers who will organize professional development opportunities for Turkish in-service teachers by revealing things what in-service teachers would like to see in professional development activities. Results of quantitative analysis showed that the mean score of Turkish in-se i e tea he s’ ie s o PDSs as between medium and high (M= 2.61, SD= 0.41). This result indicates that Turkish in-service teachers believed that PDSs would be beneficial to them if PDSs were implemented in Turkey. Among five items, the item two had the highest ea s o e he eas the ite fou had the lo est ea s o e. The ite t o asks pa ti ipa ts’ views on the responsibility and the quality assurance that PDS may provide for the participants. A high score on the item two indicated that Turkish in-service teachers believed that responsibility and the quality assurance is the most important thing that a professional development organization would have. Results of qualitative analysis supports the findings of quantitative analysis. Accordingly, Turkish in-service teachers believed that there was a lack of collaboration between universities and schools. Teachers stated that they would like to get benefit from teacher educators and researchers on new teaching methods and techniques, models and instructions. To increase the effectiveness of professional development programs in Turkey, they offered that the collaborations between university and schools should become effective. Kaya, Cepni and Kucuk (2004) reported that in-se i e ph si s tea he s epo ted that tea he s’ eeds a d di e sit were not taken into consideration in the organization and planning process of professional development activities in Turkey. Consistent with this, the results of this study indicate that teachers believe that professional development programs in Turkey were not based on what their needs were and what they would like to learn. Ö e , Me toğlu, Saka a d Gü dal epo ted that the i ade ua of the teachers' professional knowledge still existed teachers participated even though they participated in-service training studies. In this study, teachers reported that in professional development programs they were given passive role and seminars, which they were set to just listen to the speakers, were the majority of professional development programs. This may lead to decrease the effectiveness of professional development programs. For a more effective professional development programs in Turkey, the results of this study suggest that teachers should be more engaged in professional development activities and take more active roles in the p og a s. The su ess of p ofessio al de elop e t p og a s is g eatl i flue ed pa ti ipa ts’ attitudes towards professional development. Bumen et al. (2012) argued that in-service teachers in Turkey appeared to have a low level of attitudes towards professional development programs as they viewed such programs as compulsory. The underlying reason for such a view can be the fact that in most professional development programs teachers were asked to be passive listeners. That can led teachers to feel professional development programs to compulsory. The results of this study suggest that if teachers are given more active roles in 2075 Ulu ey, Ö., Yıldırı , K., Alpasla , M. M. ve Aykaç, N. (2017).

IJOESS Year: 8, Vol:8, Issue: 30 DECEMBER 2017 professional development programs, pleasure that they get from professional development activities will increase and they would start participating professional development programs voluntarily. Ozoglu (2010) argued that in-service teachers in Turkey appeared to feel that they did not need professional development programs. The reason for that feeling might be that professional development programs in Turkey did not address teacher needs. Results of this study suggest that teachers believe for a more effective professional development programs, their needs should be considered. That can be done by regularly asking to teachers what kinds of professional development programs they would need and they would be allowed to participate programs they want. Another problem about the effectiveness of professional development programs in Turkey is that some in-service teachers regularly participated in professional development programs whereas others attended in few or less than few professional development programs. To promote teachers who have participated in few professional development programs, they should be regularly and compulsorily asked what kind of programs they want. Furthermore, for an effective professional development program, the findings of this study suggest that teachers should provide opportunities that they can share good educational practices among them. In the lights of the findings of this study, it is suggested that a pilot implementation of PDSS can be done in Turkey. 2076 Ulu ey, Ö., Yıldırı , K., Alpasla , M. M. ve Aykaç, N. (2017).
