西方教师学习研究的发展及趋势

本文通过对西方教师学习研究文献的梳理,提出教师学习研究分为:萌芽期、兴起期、深化发展期三大阶段,并从教师学习观、学习内容、学习的影响因素、学习策略与模式几方面勾勒教师学习研究的主要内容。在综合分析文献的基础上,指出西方教师学习研究的趋势:从关注个体认知到情景认知的转向;从关注学习个体转向专业学习共同体;学习内容从以教师自身为出发点到以学生学习、发展为指向;学习过程从"一次性""断裂式"转向持续性、连贯性。

国际视野中的教师专业发展

教师专业发展在当前教育改革中具有重要地位.本文介绍西方国家教师专业发展领域的最新进展,探讨教育政策环境对教师专业发展的影响.文章阐述教师专业发展的界定、目的、功能、影响因素及其评价,指出教师学习和学习社群在西方学术讨论中已经成为探讨焦点.国家和市场对西方国家教师专业发展的实施有重要影响.     

我国教师学习研究述评

教师学习研究已成为西方国家教师教育领域中的热点话题,在我国对教师的需求从教师数量转向教师质量的教育背景下,教师学习研究的重要性必将日益凸显。文章梳理我国教师学习研究文献,就其研究概貌、内容、视角等几个方面一一进行分析,经过反思后得出我国教师学习研究概貌:理论视角较单一,理论成果薄弱;研究的可操作性及与针对实际的研究不足;教师学习置于各要素相互联系的视野中进行的研究较少。     

课程改革背景下西方不同路向教师学习研究述评

上世纪80年代以来教师持续性专业发展成为推动西方各国落实课程改革的重要力量.教师学习是实践专业发展的需要.在此改革语境下,教师学习政策实践与研究因循不同理论脉络分为基于标准的学习、基于个人专业发展的学习及基于学校的学习三种路向.本文据此开展述评,认为应拓展教师学习的理论视野,系统性整合不同路向的教师学习及专业变革更为关键.     

教师课改认同感与教师专业学习社群的关系研究

近年来西方研究指出教师专业学习社群能支持教师成为改革代理人,提升其改革投入。因此本研究通过对实施新课改十年S省的调查研究,考察教师课改认同感与教师专业学习社群的关系。研究发现:教师专业学习社群能通过影响教师对新课程特征的认知,并能通过改革学校改革管理来提升教师的改革价值感,进而影响其课改认同感。     

多元驱动，促进教师专业发展

教师成长的关键不仅在于实践性知识的不断丰富，而且要实现实践智慧的不断提升。要使教师成为学习型、反思型、专家型、创新型教师，必须发挥教育理论在教师专业发展中的引领作用，让教师学会学习，学会研究。     

中小学新任教师专业学习的现状及优化路径——基于北京市3150名教师的数据分析

新任教师入职适应期是教师专业发展的重要阶段，是决定教师未来专业发展方向与质量的关键期。基于教师专业学习的视角，对北京市3150名中小学新任教师问卷数据进行分析，探讨了新任教师专业学习的内容、方式与组织支持等议题。研究发现，新任教师专业学习的内容以专业技能和专业知识为主，尤为关注如何落实新课改和“双减”政策以促进学生发展。新任教师参与的学习类型及对其成长影响最大的学习方式主要为“听课与评课”“师徒结对”及“教研组研讨”;新任教师对聚焦日常实践的学习方式更为重视和期待。在学校制度情境中，学习共同体与组织支持对新任教师成长具有促进作用；新任教师学习的阻碍来自于工作忙碌、时间不足等制约。基于此，应加强新任教师专业学习的培训课程设计；探索优化新任教师专业学习方式；强化学校组织制度支持，加强教师校本研修，完善教师专业学习的支持体系。     

论教师学习的基本追求

教师学习是教师专业可持续发展的基础和前提。在这个领域中有许多值得研究和讨论的问题,其中教师应该学习什么是最为核心的问题。而学会教学、学会反思、学会研究以及学会为师,应该成为教师学习的基本追求。这些追求的实现,可以为教师专业的高质量可持续发展奠定坚实的基础。     

简论职后教师的研究性学习

在教师职后教育不断倡导的今天,教师自身学会学习成为值得研究的课题。作为全新学习方式的研究性学习对教师专业发展具有重要意义。教师应从研究性学习模式、研究性学习开展的前提、研究性学习的内容和评价等方面提高基本的学习素养。     

Engaging in and engaging with research: teacher inquiry and development

The connection between teacher inquiry, professional development and school improvement was recognised 30 years ago by Lawrence Stenhouse. Stenhouse contributed many valuable insights into the role of practitioner enquiry in creating and utilising knowledge about teaching and learning, much of which is still to be applied systematically in teacher education and professional development. This paper draws on the Learning to Learn Phase 3 Evaluation, a three‐year‐action research project in which teachers in primary and secondary schools across the UK completed three cycles of practitioner inquiry to explore tools, pedagogies and other innovations which would promote dispositions of ‘learning to learn’ (L2L). The paper focuses on identifying those aspects of being involved in L2L that support teachers’ learning and the way that the teachers themselves understand the impact on their professional development. Data from over 60 semi‐structured interviews undertaken over the three years of the project, the case study reports compiled by teachers at the end of each year of the project and collaborative workshops involving teachers and university researchers as co‐inquirers are used to explore teachers’ learning. Qualitative methods are used to develop a thematic analysis of the interviews, case studies and the teachers’ understanding of the relationships between inquiry, research and continuing professional development (CPD) in order to identify categories and generate key concepts that can inform a theoretical understanding of the impact of professional inquiry on teachers’ learning. The findings contribute to our understanding of the role of inquiry and research in schools in supporting professional learning by suggesting how tools and models of working are developed.     

对教师学习策略的几点思考

教师学习策略的研究是窥探教师学习内在心理机制的有效途径。对教师学习策略的建构必须在教师学习特点的基础上,既要体现教师的职业特征,更要为指导教师有效学习提供可资操作的指标。因此,教师学习策略体系不能照搬一般学习策略的理论,更不能抛弃学习策略理论另起炉灶,而是要形成以知识转化为核心,以调控策略和资源管理策略为辅助的完整体系,从而成为促进教师专业发展的规则系统和调控方式。     

Beyond ‘what works’: understanding teacher identity as a practical and political tool

Drawing on previous research that focused upon the formation and mediation of teacher professional identity, this paper develops a model for conceptualising teacher professional identity. Increasingly, technical-rational understandings of teachers’ work and ‘role’ are privileged in policy and public discourse over more nuanced and holistic approaches that seek to understand teacher professional identity – what it is to ‘be’ a teacher. This article seeks to offer an alternative view, presenting the idea that an understanding of the processes by which teacher professional identity is formed and mediated is central to understanding the professional learning and development needs of teachers and advancing a richer, more transformative vision for education. I argue that instrumentalist notions of teachers’ work embedded in neo-liberal educational agendas such as those currently being advanced in many western countries offer an impoverished view of the teaching profession and education more broadly, and suggest that the concept of teacher professional identity holds the potential to work as a practical tool for the teaching profession and those who work to support them in the development of a more generative educational agenda.     

New Model of Teacher Learning in an Online Network

While many researchers have examined teacher participation and professional development in online networks and communities, few have looked at the factors and contexts that shape how teachers learn in these online spaces. Examining teachers' learning processes within these online spaces can yield important insights for scholars, school leaders, and teacher educators who are interested in designing online networks and communities or supporting teacher professional development within these spaces. This study was designed to shed light on the multifaceted nature of teacher learning within an online network environment. Data were collected through an online survey and in-depth interviews of members in the Edmodo math subject community. A thematic analysis was conducted across the two data sets in order to identify patterns of actions and factors that shaped the participants' learning processes. A new model of teacher learning was developed to display teacher learning as an iterative, multistep process that is socially constructed, distributed, and situated in the contexts in which teachers work. Implications and ideas for further research are discussed.     

Does principal leadership make a difference in teacher professional learning? A comparative study China and Thailand

This research explored the relationship of principal leadership and teacher professional learning in China and Thailand. The authors tested a conceptual model in which teacher trust and agency were proposed as mediators of the effects of the principal’s learning-centered leadership on teacher professional learning. Common survey measures had been used to collect data from 1259 teachers in 38 schools in mainland China and 1071 teachers in 60 schools in Thailand. Multi-group confirmatory factor analysis, multi-group structural equation modelling, and bootstrapping were employed to compare the proposed leadership and teacher learning processes in Chinese and Thai schools. The results confirmed a similar model of strong, statistically significant, ‘mediated effects’ of principal leadership on the professional learning of teachers in the two societies. These findings contribute to our understanding of leadership effects across societies and offer insight into how policymakers and practitioners can support school leadership, teacher development, and educational change.     

网络环境下教师专业化发展的策略探究

教育信息化背景下,各国都在教育改革中全力探索采用新模式和新途径来推进教师专业发展.我国传统教师专业发展模式存在诸多不足.因特网具有资源丰富、更新及时、交互多样、通讯快捷、学习自主、时空不限等特征,能为教师的专业发展提供一个良好空间.依托网上学习支持平台,教师学员可以经过自主学习、专题学习、案例研讨、实践教学、主题研讨与问题解决、反思教研、修正教学实践等环节,经历认识——实践——反思——再认识——再实践——再反思的不断循环往复,主动地提高自身专业化水平.     

国际视野中的教师专业学习与发展模式走向

教师专业学习与发展对提升教育质量具有重要作用。对于发达国家的教师专业学习与发展模式的理念、机制、措施和成效的整体性分析与走向判断,有助于我国教师教育改革与发展的借鉴和决策参考。     

教师学习:专业发展的替代性概念

上世纪九十年代以后,西方研究者们在批判教师专业发展概念的同时提出教师学习概念。教师学习逐渐成为教师教育研究中的主导性概念。概念的更替使得观念发生了转变,一种旨在促进学生有效学习,关注教师学习自主导向,强调工作场景中真实探究,以及倡导学校变革中的持续更新的教师学习观念正在逐渐形成。     

教师专业性学习现状调查研究——以上海中小学教师为例

本研究采取整体分层抽样的办法,对上海中小学教师的专业性学习现状进行调查研究．研究结果表明,上海中小学教师的专业性学习状态较好,即教师比较认同学习应与外部关联、建立了教师学习共同体、开展了专业性学习以及积极寻求自我改变等。但教师学习的专业性还不强、教师自主学习的状态不佳。差异性检验结果显示,除自主学习外,女教师明显好于男教师;在教师学习的外部关联、教师学习共同体、教师专业性学习和自主学习等方面,小学教师的专业性学习明显好于初中教师和高中教师,初中教师也好于高中教师。
