Eğitim sistemi içinde eğitim programları, öğretmen, yönetim, okul çevresi, aileler ve öğrenciler ana objelerdir. Fakat öğretim öğretmen tarafından şekillendiği için bunların içinde en önemlisi öğretmen objesidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, okullarda görev yapan öğretmenlerin öğretmen kimliğini nasıl anladıklarını ortaya çıkarmaktır. Bu çalışmada nitel araştırma yöntemini kullanılmıştır. Nitel araştırma yöntemleri içinden öğretmenlerin öğretmen kimliği algısını daha derinden anlayabilmek için görüşme yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Çalışma grubunu Türkiye’de farklı illerde farklı branşlarda çalışan 21 öğretmen oluşturmuştur. Veriler, kodlama yöntemi ile açık temalar ortaya çıkana kadar analiz edilmiştir. Analizler sonucunda yedi ana tema ortaya çıkmıştır: öğretmen mesleğinin içeriği, bir öğretmenin mesleki özellikleri, mesleki özelliklerin standartlaşması, zaman içinde profesyonel kimliğin değişimi, öğretmen kimliğinin anlamı, öğretmen kimliğinin önemi ve öğretmen kimliğini etkileyen sebepler.
