In this direction, the areas of usage of teacher portfolio has been examined and its benefits and limits has been tried to determined as a result of literature review.  Portfolio is considered to be an approach used for the evaluation of only students. However, in many world countries, teacher portfolio is benefited from for the evaluation of teacher candidates in higher education. As a matter of fact, teacher file evaluation has a wide range of usage pre-service and in service. On the other hand, it is observed that this application is not common in terms of higher education in Turkey and enough amount of research has not been conducted on the application. Although this kind of attempts on the evalution of teacher candidates exist by Ministry of National Education, but effectiveness of it has not been evaluated. Therefore, it is crucial to determine in which situations teacher portfolio should be used, what evaluation criterion, benefits and limits are.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, öğretmen dosya değerlendirmesinin (portfolyo) bir denetim yaklaşımı olarak kullanım alanlarını, amacını, faydaları ve sınırlılıklarını tartışmaktır. Makale bir derleme çalışması olup öğretmen dosya değerlendirmesinin analiz edilmesine yardımcı olmaktadır. Bu doğrultuda öğretmen dosya değerlendirmesinin kullanım alanları incelenmiş, faydaları ve sınırlılıkları alanyazın taraması neticesinde tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Dosya değerlendirmesi, yalnızca öğrencilerin değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan bir yaklaşım olarak düşünülmektedir. Ancak dünyanın birçok ülkesinde, yükseköğretimde öğretmen adaylarının değerlendirilmesinde dosya değerlendirmesinden yararlanılmaktadır.  Nitekim öğretmen dosya değerlendirmesinin hizmet öncesi ve içinde çok yaygın bir kullanım alanı bulunmaktadır. Buna karşın Türkiye’de yükseköğretim açısından bu uygulamanın yaygın olmadığı ve uygulama ile ilgili yeterli araştırmanın yapılmadığı görülmektedir. Aday öğretmenlerin değerlendirilmesinde ise Milli Eğitim Bakanlığının bu tür bir çalışmasının olduğu görülse de henüz etkililiği değerlendirilmemiştir. Bu nedenle öğretmen dosya değerlendirmesinin hangi durumlarda kullanılacağının, değerlendirme ölçütlerinin neler olduğunun, fayda ve sınırlılıklarının belirlenmesi önemli görülmektedir. Bakanlık tarafından uygulanan bu yaklaşımının uygulamadaki etkililiğinin tespit edilmesi için araştırmaların yürütülmesi ve bu doğrultuda uygulamanın geliştirilmesi önerilmektedir.
