Hüseyin ŞAHAN 2  \nBalikesir University  \nAbstract  \nThe objective of this research aimed to establish a connection between the inclination towards lifelong learning and the degree of adherence to the curriculum among educators in primary and secondary educational institutions. In the 2021-2022 academic year, data for this screening model investigation were collected from 281 teachers employed in the central Karesi and Altıeylül districts of Balıkesir. The data were acquired using the 'Lifelong Learning Tendencies Scale,' designed by Diker Coşkun (2009), and the 'Curriculum Fidelity Scale,' developed by Burul (2018) . The data analysis employed descriptive statistics, Two-Way MANOVA, Pearson Correlation Analysis, and Regression Analysis.  \nAccording to the results, it was detected that there were moderate lifelong learning tendencies and high degree of fidelity to the curriculum. Regarding the second discovery, it was established that school type and years of professional experience significantly influenced the differences observed in teachers'lifelong learning tendencies and their adherence to the curriculum levels. Furthermore, a statistically significant but modest correlation was identified between teachers' lifelong learning tendencies and their levels of curriculum fidelity.  \nKeywords: Teacher, Lifelong Learning, Curriculum Fidelity  \nDOI: 10.29329/epasr.2024.655 .4  \nSubmitted:10 October 2023 Accepted: 16 November 2023 Published: 31 March 2024  \n1 Dr., Ministry of Education, Balikesir, Türkiye, ORCID: 0000-0002-6791-964X [Correspondence](Correspondence: korucu86@hotmail.com)[: korucu86@hotmail.com](Correspondence: korucu86@hotmail.com)  \n2 Prof. Dr., Balikesir University, Necatibey Education Faculty, Balikesir, Türkiye, ORCID: 0000-0003-0180-4812, Email: [hsahan@balikesir.edu.tr](hsahan@balikesir.edu.tr)  \n3 This study has been produced from the doctoral thesis completed by the 1st author under the supervision of the 2nd author.  \nIntroduction  \nIn the 21st century, the need for education is increasing day by day for individuals and societies to be open to innovations and to develop themselves. Accordingly, the scope of the concept of education has changed enormously. Thus, education is no longer only at school age, but it is a quality that starts from pre-school and continues throughout the life of the individual (Tanilli, 1996) . Human beings who try to adapt to the globalizing world have to take responsibility for their own learning. This necessitates lifelong learning to have individuals who can keep up with the age and survive (Erdener & Gül, 2017; Soran et al., 2006). Contemporary educational approaches show that knowledge is constantly changing, learning occurs not only in a certain period of life, but also in an ongoing structure and continues throughout life, and therefore the ability to learn is an important feature of the age. Lifelong learning, defined by the European Commission (2006) as a process by which individuals can develop their competencies throughout their lives, emphasizing the spread of learning opportunities, is seen as a necessity for teachers, who are considered both learners and pioneers of change, to constantly renew themselves (Diker Coşkun, 2009; Diker Coşkun & Demirel, 2012; [Marion et. al](Marion et. al)., 2016; Şahan, 2020). Individuals can gain lifelong learning skills by being guided correctly in every period of their lives from an early age. One of the most important roles in this process belongs to teachers. In the contemporary world of education, the successful execution of student-centered educational programs, widely embraced in today's educational landscape, within classrooms, and the transformation of teachers into facilitative guides for learning, hinges exclusively on the cultivation of lifelong learning skills (Evin Genc","cbCaid7a6kqkb1xT","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaid7a6kqkb1xT","pdf",468143,24,"English","# Introduction\n## Lifelong learning and the teacher role\n## Curriculum fidelity and influencing factors\n## Research focus and measurement approach","[{\"question\":\"What is the main objective of this study?\",\"answer\":\"To determine how teachers’ inclination toward lifelong learning relates to their curriculum fidelity level in primary and secondary education.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the data collected and analyzed?\",\"answer\":\"Data from 281 teachers were collected using the Lifelong Learning Tendencies Scale and the Curriculum Fidelity Scale, then analyzed with descriptive statistics, Two-Way MANOVA, Pearson correlation, and regression.\"},{\"question\":\"What were the key findings about lifelong learning and curriculum fidelity?\",\"answer\":\"Teachers showed moderate lifelong learning tendencies and high levels of curriculum fidelity, with school type and professional experience significantly affecting both.\"}]","The Relationship Between Teachers' Lifelong Learning Tendencies and Their Curriculum Fidelity Levels | PDF",1792095835]
