Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the knowledge level of primary school teachers with refugee student(s) present in their class related to classroom management and to determine whether this knowledge level varies depending on their gender, the type of school they graduated from, their seniority and whether they have received training in classroom management. The study group of this research, which is a survey model, is composed of 62 primary school teachers. In this study, “Classroom Management Knowledge Level Measurement Test” was used as a quantitative data collection tool while “Interview Form” was used as a qualitative data collection tool. Frequency, t-test, one-way analysis of variance, and Scheffe multiple comparison test were used in the analysis of quantitative data, and the descriptive analysis technique was used in the analysis of qualitative data. The results of the study showed that the knowledge level of teachers with refugee students(s) present in their class had low knowledge level related to classroom management, that their knowledge levels differed depending on their professional seniority and whether they have received training in classroom management, and that their knowledge levels did not vary depending on the type of school they graduated and gender.
