The Relationship Between Intergenerational Knowledge Sharing and Intergenerational Learning Levels among Teachers

Abstract

ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to determine the perception levels of teachers’ intergenerational knowledge sharing and intergenerational learning and to reveal the relationship between these variables. This study is a descriptive research which uses the relational screening model. The sample of the study consists of 464 teachers chosen by disproportionately stratified sampling in public primary, secondary and high schools in the Gebze district of Kocaeli province, Turkey, during the 2018–2019 academic year. The data were gathered via the Intergenerational Knowledge Sharing scale and the Intergenerational Learning scale. Arithmetic mean, standard deviation, regression, and correlation analyses were applied to the data. As a result of the study, a positive high-level relationship was found to exist between intergenerational knowledge sharing and intergenerational learning.
