Values in teaching

As in many other Western countries, in The Netherlands in recent years a discussion has started about the possibilities and necessity of teachers paying more attention to values in schools. In this article we will give a review of research regarding values and education, and make a conceptual clarification. We will analyse how values and communicative skills to reflect on values can be part of education, and will discuss school culture as part of a moral education. We argue for a more integrative approach. This implies at the same time the stimulation of certain values by the teacher, teaching and learning of skills to better communicate on values, and increasing the active participation of students. Throughout the article we focus on the pedagogical and didactic approach of the teacher, the way teachers are confronted with values, and how teachers' own values are part of their teaching practice.     

Professional primary school teacher identity development: a pursuit in line with an unexpressed image

The results presented in this article are taken from a case study of novice primary school mathematics teachers’ professional identity development from the perspective of the teachers themselves. The empirical material was collected through self-recordings, observations and interviews. The results show how the professional identity development of these novice teachers becomes a pursuit in line with their image of a primary school teacher. To develop a sense of themselves as primary school teachers they need to establish their own criteria - individual (including graduation and personal knowledge) and social (the ability to work in one school, have colleagues and have a class of their own for which they do the planning and teaching). These criteria are shown to be both a precondition for and a part of professional identity development. The novice teachers’ image of what it means to be a primary school teacher directs their actions and becomes the goal of their professional identity development. Because of its high impact, student and novice teachers’ image of primary school teachers ought to be made visible in both teacher education and teacher induction.     

小学语文教学中学生阅读驱动力的培养

语文,就像是挂在天上的月亮一样,给人们带来静谧的月光,让人们感受到了神秘的氛围,只有不断观察它,走进它,你才有可能挖掘出它背后的秘密。小学生学习语文,不仅是学业的要求,还是自身发展的需要,是学生筑建自己的学习大厦的基础。阅读,作为语文的重要组成部分,更是学生探索的主要方向。小学语文教师培养学生的阅读驱动力,围绕生活、情境、问题、合作、实践展开,能够加快学生对阅读的探索步伐。     

对“地方高师”音乐教学改革的思考

“地方高师”应摆脱音乐学院的影响，在人才培养目标、课程设置、地方音乐资源的利用等方面进行改革。应定位于本地区中小学音乐师资的培养，合理安排专业课程，形成自己的特色，并充分发挥其优势，让地方高师成为地方传统音乐的传承基地。     

集团校教师专业发展机理的质性研究

集团化办学现已成为各地推进教育优质均衡发展的主要抓手,而促进集团校教师专业发展亦将成为建设高素质教师队伍的关键。采用个案研究的方式实地考察了江苏省一所集团化小学的教师专业发展状况,研究结果显示：行政力量、多元文化价值和人格魅力是影响集团校教师专业发展的主要因素,这些因素促成教师在观念、实践方面的转变及学生在课堂学习中的转变。以“教师转变”为核心的教师专业发展的生成机理为：中介变量支持教师转变、“双环”驱动教师转变和规则因素全程影响教师转变。依此,集团校教师要融入学校文化生态,增强在诸多规则间的判断力,实现自身的转变;学校要把脉教师专业发展状况,促进各校区间的沟通,为教师转变营造良好的生态环境。

谈“移情”教学在初中语文教学中的应用

语文教学的本质在于其所蕴含的丰富的情感性,只有从情感上打动学生,才能真正让学生把文本内化为自身的感悟,也只有真正产生情感的共鸣,方能彰显教学的实效。因此,在初中语文教学中,教师应积极寻找或实践"移情"教学的策略,充分发挥"移情"教学的作用。

Incorporating creativity into teachers practice and self-concept of professional identity

The study explores what happens to teachers practice and professional identity when they adopt a collaborative action research approach to teaching and involve external creative partners and a university mentor. The teachers aim to nurture and develop the creative potential of their learners through empowering them to make decisions for themselves about their own progress and learning directions. The teachers worked creatively and collaboratively designing creative teaching and learning methods in support of pupils with language and communication difficulties. The respondents are from an English special school, primary school and girls secondary school. A mixed methods methodology is adopted. Gains in teacher confidence and capability were identified in addition to shifts in values that impacted directly on their self-concept of what it is to be an effective teacher promoting effective learning. The development of their professional identities within a team ethos included them being able to make decisions about learning that are based on the educational potential of learners that they proved resulted in elevated standards achieved by this group of learners. They were able to justify their actions on established educational principles. Tensions however were revealed between what they perceived as their normal required professionalism imposed by external agencies and the enhanced professionalism experienced working through the project where they were able to integrate theory and practice.     

Bringing Student Responsibility to Life: Avenues to Personalizing High Schools for Student Success

This study examines how school structures and policies shape school culture to ultimately influence student success in one urban high school. We develop a model that explains how caring and personalized connections between students and teachers, coupled with a focus on academic press and support, interact with teacher efficacy to influence student self-efficacy, student attachment to school, and ultimately greater student achievement. We collected data through focus group and individual interviews with students, teachers, and leaders, classroom observations, and school artifacts. Data were analyzed using the constant comparative method allowing for the emergence of important patterns. The data revealed several interrelated structures and processes that support teacher and student efficacy and ultimately instill in students a responsibility for their own learning. This case study highlights the need for administrators to develop buy-in from teachers around a cohesive vision in order for structural reforms to be effective.     

Producing the evidence: Science teachers' initiations into practical work

The quantity, quality and fitness for purpose of much school practical work has come in for some criticism. This paper reports on questionnaire and interview studies with trainee science teachers. The study examined the reasons and justifications that teachers give for the way in which they conduct practical work. The particular focus is on counter-normative behaviour and what the behaviour indicates about the status of empirical work and the purpose of evidence in science classrooms. The questionnaire was completed by 40 trainee teachers. The analysis of the questionnaire determined the number of teachers who had produced results fraudulently either on their own initiative or had been initiated into it by experienced teachers and/or laboratory technicians. From the questionnaire we were able to select a small sample who we interviewed in order to unpack further the questionnaire responses. In discussing our data, a case for the re-evaluation of practical work in science education will be made and it will be argued that science teacher behaviour is best understood anthropologically. Possible implications for mentoring and school based training are mentioned briefly.     

The importance of networks for newly qualified teachers in upper secondary education

Background and purpose:?The interest in raising the competence of teachers through networks and network activities is increasing. This article is based on the voices of four newly qualified teachers who give us the opportunity to listen to experiences in authentic surroundings. The purpose of this article is to gain better insight into the type of networks newly qualified teachers maintain, develop and create to develop as teachers. The research question is: What is the importance of networks for the professional development of newly qualified teachers in upper secondary education?

Main argument:?The main finding of the article, based on in-depth interviews with four newly qualified teachers, is that being acknowledged by colleagues is decisive for professional development. Furthermore, the school’s programme of meetings to some extent contributes to developing the respect and trust of the newly qualified teachers, who also need to find time and opportunities for reflection in personal networks outside school. The relational and emotional aspects of the teaching profession produce a need for guidance processes where the ethical dilemmas of the profession can be raised. When these dilemmas arise, the newly qualified teachers actively look outside school to grasp opportunities for professional development. The teachers appear to be very active in their own professional development, and they have ambitions to develop as teachers for the benefit of the pupils and the school.

Conclusions:?Systematic guidance is highlighted as fundamental for these teachers’ learning.     

15‐year‐old Pupils’ and their Teachers’ Values,and their Beliefs about the Values of an Ideal Pupil

The paper reports a study on the values of 15‐year‐old pupils and their teachers, and also their beliefs about the values of an ideal pupil. The sample included Finnish comprehensive school pupils (n = 406, mean age 15.3 years) and their teachers (n = 124). The study centred on two questions concerning: (1) what values are important to pupils and teachers; and (2) what pupils and teachers imagine an ideal pupil in their school values. Values were measured according to Schwartz's value questionnaire, which includes 57 single values grouped into 11 general value types. The subjects were asked to fill in the questionnaire twice. Firstly they were asked to consider what values were important to them as guiding principles in their life. Then they were asked to answer the questions as they imagined an ideal pupil in their own school would. The results showed that the most important value types were similar for pupils and teachers; for example, both groups valued benevolence and universalism. The differences between pupils’ and teachers’ images of an ideal pupil, in contrast, were more distinct. Pupils imagined an ideal pupil to be obedient, polite, capable, intelligent, ambitious, wise and respectful of parents and elders, while teachers imagined an ideal pupil to be honest and broad‐minded, valuing self‐respect, family security, true friendship and meaning in life. The results are discussed in terms of the general aims of curricula and the key values of schools.     

人本主义范式指导下的教师专业发展

中职教师职业认同对工作投入影响的实证研究

中职教师队伍建设是决定职业教育发展的重要一环,职业认同对工作投入具有正向预测作用,职业认同可以影响工作投入进而影响中职师资队伍建设的整体水平。为发挥人力资源优势,提升中职师资队伍水平,通过对浙江省内5所中职学校的350名中职教师进行问卷调查,采用了描述统计与回归分析的方法,分析了中职教师职业认同对工作投入的影响。研究发现:浙江省中职学校教师的职业认同水平和工作投入水平均处于中等偏上水平。中职教师对自己职业的积极评价越高,愿意以“中职教师”自称的意愿越强,对职业荣辱与共的情感越强烈,工作过程中做出行动的倾向越强,都会对中职教师工作投入产生更显著的正向影响。     

Effects of a school consultation program upon referral patterns of teachers

The effects of a school consultation program were reviewed through an analysis of referral patterns of teachers over a seven-year period. The provision of consultation services was found to result in a pattern of decreasing referrals on the part of teachers over time, suggesting that the consultation process seemed to have the side benefit of helping teachers develop their own skills in coping with difficulties of students without the need for frequent consultation.
