Outline

Qualifications Framework Three Pillars of Bologna Process Quality Assurance Qualifications Framework Recognition Bologna Sürecinin üç temel direği vardır. Bölüm veya programların amaç, kapsam ve yöntemini gösteren yeterlilikler çerçevesi; Üniversite mezunlarının belirli bir seviyeyi tutturmalarını sağlayacak olan kalite güvence mekanizmaları ve Sonunda da üniversitenin, programın ve en önemlisi de mezunların ellerindeki sertifikaların veya diplomaların kabul edilmesi yani tanınmasıdır. Bu üç unsur birbirinin tamamlayıcısıdır ve özellikle tanınma olmazsa, diğer ilk ikisinin fazla bir şey ifade etmeyeceği söylenebilir. Outline

Qualifications: Meaning and Usage Outline

Qualifications: European, National, Sectoral, Learning Outcomes ‘qualification’ means a formal outcome of an assessment and validation process which is obtained when a competent body determines that an individual has achieved learning outcomes to given standards; ‘national qualifications system’ means all aspects of a Member State's activity related to the recognition of learning and other mechanisms that link education and training to the labour market and civil society. This includes the development and implementation of institutional arrangements and processes relating to quality assurance, assessment and the award of qualifications. A national qualifications system may be composed of several subsystems and may include a national qualifications framework; ‘national qualifications framework’ means an instrument for the classification of qualifications according to a set of criteria for specified levels of learning achieved, which aims to integrate and coordinate national qualifications subsystems and improve the transparency, access, progression and quality of qualifications in relation to the labour market and civil society; ‘sector’ means a grouping of professional activities on the basis of their main economic function, product, service or technology; ‘international sectoral organisation’ means an association of national organisations, including, for example, employers and professional bodies, which represents the interests of national sectors; ‘learning outcomes’ means statements of what a learner knows, understands and is able to do on completion of a learning process, which are defined in terms of knowledge, skills and competence; Yeterlilik sözcüğünü Türkçede sertifika, belge veya daha spesifik olarak diploma diye tanımlayabiliriz. Uluslar arası düzeyde (Avrupa) ve ulusal düzeyde (Türkiye) ve sektörel düzeyde eğitim, meslek ve ekonomik faaliyet sınıflaması üçlemesi dikkate alınarak programların müfredatları ve öğrenme kazanımları oluşturulur. Bu noktada bir hususa işaret etmek isterim. Türkiye’de, insanların bilgi ve beceri kazanımlarını ya tecrübeyle ya sertifikayla veya diplomayla ölçmek mümkün. Tecrübeyle kazanılan bilgi ve beceri informel, sertifikaya dayalıysa nanformel ve diplomaya dayalıysa formel kelimelerini kullanıyoruz. Acaba Türkiye’de ekonomideki sektörlerde bilgi ve beceri güncellenmesi ve gelişmesi daha çok hangi eğitim yoluyla yapılıyor. Bu durum ABD’de, Avrupa ülkelerinde nasıldır, Türkiye bu bakımdan, AB’den ve ABD’den ayrılmakta mıdır? Türk insanının sahip olduğu informel, nanformel ve formel birikimi belgelenmekte midir? Bunun mekanizmaları kurulmuş mudur? Yoksa Türkiye işgücü piyasasının sahip olduğu donanımın niteliğini ve düzeyini gösteren objektif bir veri tabanımız hala yok mudur? Outline

Regulations: European Qualifications Framework (EQF) International regulation: The European Parliament and The Council of the European Union Recommendation of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2008 On the Establishment of the European Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning (Text With EEA Relevance) (2008/C 111/01) Directive 2005/36/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 September 2005 On The Recognition Of Professional Qualifications National regulation: Since 2001 Turkey is member of BP. Turkish CoHE introduced NQF in May 2009 and updated in January 2010. CoHE announced Field Qualifications (Sectoral?) in February 2011. Program Learning Outcomes (PLO)……. (under construction  ) Pilot universities (Sakarya, Karadeniz Technical, Anadolu, Izmir Economics) as end of June 2010. All HEIs as end of 2012 (construction and relationships: Program LOs, SQ, NQF, EQF) AB direktifleri, Lizbon tanınma sözleşmesi ve Bologna Süreci uluslar arası düzeyde yeterliliklerin yasal zeminini oluşturuyor. Türkiye 2001 yılında Bologna Sürecine resmen taraf olmuştur. YÖK 2009 ve 2010 yıllarında ulusal yeterlilikler çerçevesini kurgulamış ve üniversite camiasına ilan etmiştir. YÖK 2011 yılı başında UNESCO’nun eğitim sınıflamasını (ISCED) esas alarak alan yeterliliklerini dekanlardan oluşan konseylerle çalışarak ilk versiyonunu Ocak 2011’de ilan etmiştir. Hali hazırda dört üniversite içinde bulunduğumuz haziran ayı sonuna kadar, bugüne değin Bologna Sürecinin öngördüğü mekanizmaların çerçevesini kurma ve işletir duruma getirerek danışmanlık yapacak düzeyde örnek hale gelmeleri beklenmektedir.

Regulations: European Qualifications Framework (EQF) The Lisbon Recognition Convention: the Council of Europe and the UNESCO introduced. It is named after Lisbon, Portugal, where it was signed in 1997, and entered into force on 1 February 1999. Aims of the Convention The Convention stipulates that degrees and periods of study must be recognised unless substantial differences can be proved by the institution that is charged with recognition. Students and graduates are guaranteed fair procedures under the Convention. Bologna Process The Lisbon Recognition Convention is an important instrument for the Bologna Process which aims at creating the "European higher education area" by making academic degree standards and quality assurance standards more comparable and compatible throughout Europe. Turkey signed Lisbon Recognition Convention in 2004 and put into effect in 2007. --- Outline

Daha sonra 22 temel eğitim alanı için Bologna uzmanlarından danışmanlar belirlenerek dekanlardan oluşan temel alan yeterlilik gruplarının çalışmaları desteklendi. Dekanlar oldukça yoğun ve tempolu bir çalışma sonucunda çalışmalarını 14 Haziran 2010 tarihinde tamamladı. YÖK bünyesinde Bologna uzmanlarından oluşturulan redaksiyon komisyonu 22 alana ilişkin çalışmaları gözden geçirdi. Bu çalışmalara Uluslararası İlişkiler ve AB birimi yöneticisi ve uzmanlarıyla yoğun bir destek verdi. Nihayet 13 Ocak 2011 tarihinde Türkiye yükseköğrenim temel alan yeterlilikleri ilan edildi ve program yeterlilikleri ile ulusal yeterlilikler arasında Bologna Sürecinde öngörülen ancak Avrupa düzeyinde henüz ilan edilmemiş olan bir ara aşama Türkiye’de geliştirilmek üzere kamuoyuna sunulmuş oldu. Bizim temel alan yeterliliklerine yüklediğimiz anlam, Amerikan ABET’ın mühendislik alan yeterliliklerine yüklediği anlama paraleldir. Outline

The Work Load of HEIs In the Field of Qualifications I.Pilot-level implementation (June 2011):Preparing program profiles (including Learning Outcomes) on the basis of NQF-HETR, FQ (Field ‘Sectoral’) and bringing student centered measurement and assessment systems into line with these PLOs. II. All other higher education institutions will complete the same work until the end of 2012: 1.Establish the relationship between EQF→NQF-HETR → FQs → PLOs → Course Unit LOs. 2. Measurement and assessment systems will be reviewed and developed based on the qualifications and outcomes. 3. Institutional quality assurance system to be installed / developed. 4.A proficiency system for foreign language will be installed / developed. 5. Recognition instruments must be acquired until the end of 2012 at least at the national level (ECTS & DS labels). 6. Strategies and mechanisms for the recognition of prior learning will be created / developed. 7. Mechanisms will be established in line with lifelong learning strategy. 8. Mobility will be a performance indicator. All of these are already foreseen explicitly/implicitly in the Law and CoHE General Assembly decisions. Son olarak, üniversitelerimizin bundan sonraki süreçte yoğunlaşmaları beklenen faaliyetlere değinmek isterim. Dört pilot üniversite kendilerinden beklenenleri kamuoyunun değerlendirmesine sunacaklar. Bu noktada program profilleri (öğrenme kazanımları dahil), ulusal ve sektörel yeterliliklere dayalı program öğrenme kazanımları, öğrenci merkezli ölçme ve değerlendirme mekanizmaları ile bu mekanizmaların program çıktıları ile uyumluluğunun temini bakımından mekanizmaların kurulmuş olması bekleniyor. Diğer kurumlara gelince, kendi potansiyellerine göre oluşturmaları daha yerinde olan bir yol haritası önermekten ziyade Yapılacakları sıralarsak eğer, 2012 yılı sonuna kadar (yani bir buçuk yıllık bir süremiz var); 1.Avrupa, ulusal, sektörel, program, ders-modül hiyerarşisinin kurulması 2.Yeterliliklere ve kazanımlara dayalı ölçme ve değerlendirme sistemlerinin kurulması veya geliştirilmesi 3.Kurumsal kalite güvence sisteminin kurulması veya geliştirilmesi 4.Yabancı dil yeterliliği sisteminin kurulması veya geliştirilmesi 5.En azından ulusal düzeyde (YÖK, MYK, MEB nezdinde) tanınma araçlarının asgari standartta sağlanması (ulusal ekler: DE ve AKTS) 6.Önceki öğrenmenin (informel, nanformel, formel) tanınması için mekanizmaların kurulması veya geliştirilmesi 7.Yaşamboyu öğrenme stratejisi çerçevesinde mekanizmaların kurulması (toplumun sahip olduğu bilgi ve becerilerin belgelendirilmesi ve güncellenmesinin teşviki için gerekli) 8.Öğrenci, öğretim elemanı ve idari personelin hareketliliğinin bir performans göstergesi olduğu hatırda tutularak mekanizmaların kurulması ve geliştirilmesi. …. Esasen, bütün bu hususlar halihazırda açık veya örtük olarak kanun düzeyinde veya YÖK Genel Kurul kararları çerçevesinde öngörülmüş durumdadır. Örneğin, Avrupa düzeyinde yeterlilikler çerçevesi 2008’den bu yana ve ulusal düzeyde yeterlilikler çerçevesi ise 2009 Mayısından bu yana ilan edilmiş. Bu durumda, Avrupa bölgesindeki bütün üniversitelerin Avrupa çerçevesini dikkate almasını beklemek gerekmez mi, ayrı bir düzenlemeye hacet var mı? Yine Türkiye’de ulusal yeterlilikler ve sektörel yeterlilikler ilan edilmiş durumda. Bu noktada üniversitelerin birbiriyle ilişki kurmadan sayfalarında ulusal, sektörel ve program yeterliliklerini yanyana koymaları, bunların yatay/dikey hiyerarşik ilişkilerini öngörmemeleri beklenebilir mi? Veya öğrenci işyükü ve ölçme-değerlendirme sistemlerini bu yeni yapıya göre tekrar ele almalarını beklemek doğal değil midir? Outline
