Abstract

ABSTRACT Enhancing students’ experience in classrooms in the FE sector by improving instructional quality has been an ongoing challenge for years. Although mentoring has contributed quite considerably to developing teachers’ competence and making them more resilient, looking at mentoring from a different perspective requires and deserves immediate attention. Using a case study, this research explores in depth how mentoring can prove constructive, efficacious and transformational through co-teaching. A novel model of mentoring (Mentoring through Co-Teaching – MTCT) is presented and investigated in order to further explore mentoring in the moment to support teachers as well as mentors become more skilled and resilient practitioners through mentoring in action. Rich and ample qualitative data, in the form of a semi-structured interview with the participant, observation reports, self-evaluation reports and learners’ voice, are analysed to determine the impact of this study and future recommendations are made in an attempt to further improve teaching, learning and assessment in the FE sector.

通过联合教学使指导转变:财经部门的案例研究

摘要：多年来，通过提高教学质量来提高FE部门学生的课堂体验一直是一项持续的挑战。尽管辅导对培养教师的能力和提高他们的适应力做出了相当大的贡献，但从不同的角度看待辅导需要并值得立即关注。通过案例研究，本研究深入探讨了指导如何通过共同教学来证明其建设性、有效性和变革性。提出并研究了一种新的指导模式（通过共同教学指导——MTCT），以进一步探索当前的指导，支持教师以及导师通过实际指导成为更熟练、更有韧性的从业者。通过对参与者的半结构化访谈、观察报告、自我评估报告和学习者的声音等形式，分析了丰富而充足的定性数据，以确定本研究的影响，并提出了未来的建议，试图进一步改善FE部门的教学、学习和评估。

期刊介绍： Throughout the world, there is a growing awareness of the significance of vocational and post-compulsory education and training systems. The majority of countries are working hard to develop their provision, recognising the importance of post-compulsory education in providing educated and skilled people in sufficient numbers at appropriate levels to assist economic and social development. Research in Post-Compulsory Education, sponsored by the United Kingdom"s Further Education Research Association (FERA), recognises the need for more international research and analysis and the generation of relevant theory in order to identify policy needs and trends as well as priorities in this growing area.
