ABSTRACT The development of informal learning (IL) by the teaching staff relates to the generation of contextualized learning at the school which is integrated into daily working life. This study analyses the roles and actions of school principals in the generation and promotion of teaching staff’s informal learning and is based on the application of online questionnaires to a sample of 686 participants, 415 principals and 271 teachers from schools in Catalonia (Spain). The study begins with a descriptive-comparative analysis between the two groups that make up the sample spread and ends with the development of four multiple regression models that allow for the verification of the independent effects among the variable criteria used and the four roles of the school principals considered for informal learning. The results show that principals perform the majority of the actions presented; however, they show differences of opinions with teachers in the frequency of performing several actions.
教师非正式学习(IL)的发展与学校中融入日常工作生活的情境化学习的产生有关。本研究分析了校长在培养和促进教职员工非正式学习方面的作用和行动,并基于对来自加泰罗尼亚(西班牙)学校的686名参与者、415名校长和271名教师的在线问卷调查。该研究以构成样本分布的两组之间的描述性比较分析开始,并以开发四个多元回归模型结束,该模型允许验证所使用的变量标准之间的独立影响以及校长在非正式学习中的四个角色。结果表明,主体执行了所提出的大多数动作;然而,他们在执行几个动作的频率上与教师表现出不同的意见。

ABSTRACT Over recent decades, a great amount of attention has been globally directed to school achievement evidenced by large-scale assessment programmes. Additionally, there has been an increase in expectations regarding teachers’ use of data. Against this backdrop, there arose a clear demand for assessment-literate teachers, mapping out the changes that teachers need in practice in order to ensure sound instructional decision-making and enable better learning for students. Despite the current educational policy and trends in research, teachers in Italy tend to avoid using large-scale assessment results and continue to perceive this assessment as inappropriate and ineffective. To shed light on the reasons for teachers’ negative conceptions of the national large-scale assessment programme, a qualitative study was conducted drawing data from semi-structured interviews with 70 teachers. The discussion on limitations of and issues encountered in large-scale assessments addresses policy implications for teachers’ assessment literacy, as well as for their professional development.
近几十年来,大规模的评估项目证明了全球对学校成绩的大量关注。此外,对教师使用数据的期望也有所提高。在这种背景下,出现了对具有评估素养的教师的明确需求,他们需要制定教师在实践中需要的变化,以确保合理的教学决策并使学生更好地学习。尽管目前的教育政策和研究趋势,意大利的教师倾向于避免使用大规模的评估结果,并继续认为这种评估是不适当的和无效的。为了阐明教师对国家大规模评估方案持负面看法的原因,对70名教师进行了一项定性研究,并从半结构化访谈中获取数据。讨论了大规模评估的局限性和遇到的问题,讨论了对教师评估素养及其专业发展的政策影响。

ABSTRACT This study identifies how a teacher’s entrepreneurial behavior (TEB) changed when promoted to higher positions in a school. It distills her experiences over time to uncover the symbiotic relationship between teaching and administrative entrepreneurial behaviors in promoting school innovation. Drawing on data from semi-structured interviews with teachers in the school, the results indicate that her TEB shifted from self-empowerment via school innovation to empowering others as she gained administrative authority. As a classroom teacher or subject head, the focal teacher developed ownership of innovation advocacy as a teacher leader, exhibiting resource-seeking behaviors and taking risks to spearhead change within her sphere of control. She faced an ‘innovation cliff’ when she transitioned to a school leadership role and acquired administrative authority. However, she eventually succeeded in scaling up whole-school entrepreneurial behavior and innovation as a school principal. This case study indicates the need for a major transformation of teacher development as teachers scale the organizational hierarchy to take on administrative roles. School leaders should act as resource providers to empower the entrepreneurial behaviors of other teachers and students. This requirement represents a turning point in teacher development, as earlier stages of TEB involve resource acquisition for self-empowerment.
摘要本研究旨在探讨教师在升任后其创业行为(TEB)的变化。本文从她的经验中提炼出教学与行政创业行为在促进学校创新中的共生关系。根据对学校教师的半结构化访谈数据,结果表明,随着她获得行政权力,她的TEB从通过学校创新赋予自己权力转变为赋予他人权力。作为任课教师或学科负责人,焦点教师形成了作为教师领导者的创新倡导所有权,表现出资源寻求行为,并在其控制范围内冒险带头变革。当她过渡到学校领导角色并获得行政权力时,她面临着“创新悬崖”。然而,作为校长,她最终成功地扩大了全校的创业行为和创新。本案例研究表明,教师发展需要进行重大转变,因为教师将组织层级扩大到承担管理角色。学校领导应该扮演资源提供者的角色,鼓励其他师生的创业行为。这一要求代表了教师发展的一个转折点,因为TEB的早期阶段涉及为自我授权而获取资源。

ABSTRACT In Kazakhstan, an increasing school student population, low rates of graduates entering the profession, and high novice teacher attrition have made the attraction and retention of quality teachers a critical issue. To investigate this problem, the authors draw on the 2018 TALIS dataset involving a survey of 5201 Kazakhstani teachers from 275 participating schools. The study, framed by Chapman’s teacher attrition model, uses a nested data design. As an outcome variable, the authors make use of a corollary of attrition, the self-reported career commitment variable in the Kazakhstani TALIS dataset. The analysis suggests that teachers who enter the profession with enhanced altruistic tendencies have improved self-efficacy and job satisfaction. Further, teaching-as-a-first-career-choice appears to drive both job satisfaction and career commitment, while learning to manage behaviour and mixed-ability settings also appears to drive improved long-term career commitment. Implications for teacher education and research in other Central Asian and post-Soviet countries are offered.
摘要在哈萨克斯坦,学生人数不断增加,毕业生进入该行业的比率较低,新手教师流失率较高,这使得吸引和留住高素质教师成为一个关键问题。为了调查这个问题,作者利用了2018年TALIS数据集,该数据集对275所参与学校的5201名哈萨克斯坦教师进行了调查。这项研究以查普曼的教师流失模型为框架,采用嵌套数据设计。作为一个结果变量,作者利用了自然减员的推论,即哈萨克斯坦TALIS数据集中自我报告的职业承诺变量。分析表明,利他主义倾向增强的教师进入职业后,其自我效能感和工作满意度都有所提高。此外,作为第一职业的教师选择似乎可以提高工作满意度和职业承诺,而学习管理行为和混合能力环境似乎也可以提高长期职业承诺。对其他中亚和后苏联国家的教师教育和研究提供了启示。

ABSTRACT This article reports on a study of a teacher professional development (TPD) course that combined digital courseware with a face-to-face professional learning community. The aim of the course, implemented in a developing country, was to improve teacher knowledge and practice in early childhood literacy and numeracy. Using interview and questionnaire data, this article focuses on teachers’ views on the literacy modules of the course; that is, their views on the impact of the course on their learning and teaching and the design features of the blended course. The findings highlight that the blended course was successful overall despite a number of challenges associated with contextual conditions in a developing country. Themes related to teacher knowledge, views and practices, positive features of the course design and limitations of the course design. The findings have implications for future development, delivery and evaluation of blended learning courses for teacher professional development in developing countries.
摘要本文报道了一项教师专业发展课程的研究,该课程将数字课件与面对面的专业学习社区相结合。该课程在发展中国家实施,目的是提高教师在幼儿识字和算术方面的知识和实践。利用访谈和问卷调查数据,本文重点探讨了教师对该课程识字模块的看法;即他们对课程对他们学习和教学的影响的看法以及混合课程的设计特点。研究结果强调,尽管发展中国家的环境条件存在一些挑战,但混合课程总体上是成功的。主题涉及教师的知识、观点和实践、课程设计的积极特点和课程设计的局限性。研究结果对发展中国家教师专业发展混合学习课程的未来发展、提供和评估具有启示。

ABSTRACT Following the increasing demand to improve educational systems, ‘top-down’ reforms were developed targeting teachers’ work conditions alongside new professional development policy. The current study aimed to examine the perceptions of teachers who are employed under two reforms in parallel, regarding their job satisfaction and professional development. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 teachers who work simultaneously under the two reforms. Based on analysis technique that focuses on content, four themes related to teachers’ job satisfaction were identified: workload and multiple tasks; inherent satisfaction; the struggle between personal and professional identities; and ‘broken’ routine. In addition, three themes regarding professional development were found: forced and limited; unnatural and disconnected to the field; and workload as ruling out a profound process. Taking all the themes into consideration, three portraits of teachers were found: the praising, the flowing, and the embittered. Implications and meaning of the findings will be further discussed.
随着对改善教育系统的需求不断增加,针对教师工作条件和新的专业发展政策进行了“自上而下”的改革。本研究旨在探讨两项改革并行下受聘教师的工作满意度与专业发展。对在两项改革下同时工作的20名教师进行了半结构化访谈。基于以内容为中心的分析技术,我们确定了与教师工作满意度相关的四个主题:工作量和多任务;内在的满足感;个人身份与职业身份之间的斗争;还有“破碎的”例行公事。此外,还发现了有关专业发展的三个主题:强迫和有限;不自然的,与能量场脱节的;而工作量排除是一个深刻的过程。综合考虑这些主题,我们发现了三种教师形象:赞美的、流动的和痛苦的。研究结果的影响和意义将进一步讨论。

ABSTRACT This study is framed within Norton’s notion of ‘investment’ to explore the factors influencing teachers’ reasons and decisions to participate in continuing professional development (CPD) activities. Data were collected from 522 junior high school teachers in the Central region of Ghana using a survey and in-depth interviews. The findings reveal that teachers more frequently participated in informal CPD activities than in organised ones. Also, motivation to participate in CPD activities extended beyond intrinsic and extrinsic motivators to include sociocultural factors such as the nature of teachers’ identity and agency, which were shaped by existing contextual conditions in teachers’ professional practice. Such social conditions increased teachers’ expectations of resources from CPD participation. Therefore, teachers invested in CPD activities where their expectations of resources from participation outweighed the cost to be expended on such involvement. The study opens up a debate for rethinking teacher motivation to include the notion of ‘investment’ to provide a much deeper understanding of the complexities involved in teachers’ reasons for participating in CPD activities.
摘要本研究以Norton的“投资”概念为框架,探讨影响教师参与持续专业发展(CPD)活动的原因和决定的因素。数据是通过调查和深入访谈从加纳中部地区522名初中教师那里收集的。研究结果显示,教师更频繁地参与非正式的持续专业发展活动,而不是有组织的活动。此外,参与持续专业发展活动的动机超越了内在和外在的动机,包括社会文化因素,如教师身份和代理的性质,这些因素是由教师专业实践中现有的背景条件决定的。这种社会条件增加了教师对持续专业发展参与资源的期望。因此,教师投资于持续专业发展活动,他们对参与资源的期望超过了参与此类活动的成本。这项研究开启了一场关于重新思考教师动机的辩论,将“投资”的概念纳入其中,以更深入地理解教师参与持续专业发展活动的原因所涉及的复杂性。

ABSTRACT Only recently have researchers and practitioners become interested in teacher educator development and identity formation. The author explores the place of ‘distant teachers’ – giants of the past whose lives and works prove powerful in self-formation. John Dewey and Boyd H. Bode are offered as examples of distant teachers; the development of the teacher–student relationship with Dewey and Bode is described. The author argues that ‘Great teachers, distant teachers, grab and hold us because they stretch us and in stretching we re-imagine ourselves and begin to remake the world that holds us and that we, in turn, uphold.’
直到最近,研究者和实践者才对教师教育者的发展和身份形成产生了兴趣。作者探索了“遥远的老师”的位置——过去的巨人,他们的生活和作品在自我形成方面被证明是强大的。约翰·杜威(John Dewey)和博伊德·博德(Boyd H.Bode)是远程教师的例子;介绍了杜威和波德师生关系的发展历程。作者认为,“伟大的老师,遥远的老师,抓住并抓住我们,因为他们拉伸了我们,在拉伸的过程中,我们重新想象了自己,并开始重塑这个拥抱我们的世界,而这个世界又是我们所坚持的。”

The author argues that ‘Great teachers, distant teachers, grab and hold us because they stretch us and in stretching we re-imagine ourselves and begin to remake the world that holds us and that we, in turn, uphold.’","PeriodicalId":46208,"journal":{"name":"Teacher Development","volume":"27 1","pages":"203 - 213"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43803099","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT Research competencies can empower teachers to inquire into their work and innovate in the field. In particular, conceptual competencies in consuming empirical research (CCER) are expected of K–12 teachers, but little is known about how teachers develop CCER. To address this gap, the authors conducted a case study with 12 teachers enrolled in a hybrid graduate course on educational research at a public, comprehensive university in the USA. Data generated from the 15-week course activities and assignments were analyzed. Findings show that teachers’ CCER improved through a three-stage process. In each stage, teachers achieved success but encountered challenges. The varied performance among teachers could be explained by three factors: extensiveness of literature review, conceptual understanding of research topic, and specificity of research focus. This study contributes to the literature by generating detailed evidence of how K–12 teachers develop CCER. Implications for course design and future studies are discussed.
研究能力可以使教师探究自己的工作并在该领域进行创新。特别是对K-12教师的消费实证研究概念能力(CCER)的期望,但对教师如何发展CCER知之甚少。为了解决这一差距,作者对美国一所公立综合性大学的12名参加教育研究混合研究生课程的教师进行了案例研究。分析了15周课程活动和作业产生的数据。研究结果表明,教师CCER的提高经历了三个阶段。在每个阶段,教师都取得了成功,但也遇到了挑战。教师的不同表现可以用三个因素来解释:文献综述的广泛性、对研究主题的概念性理解和研究重点的特殊性。本研究通过提供K-12教师如何发展CCER的详细证据,为文献做出了贡献。讨论了对课程设计和未来研究的启示。
