教师教育者专业身份认同剖析

教师教育者的专业身份认同是教师教育者从内心了解并赞同社会与个人对于教师教育者的角色期待。从世界范围看,教师教育改革需要关注高等教育中教师教育者和中小学教师教育者这两类教师教育者的专业身份认同。为推动教师教育者的专业身份认同,迫切需要制度建设,并逐步强化教师教育者的主体意识。     

师范大学中学科教师教育者的身份认同

个案研究发现,学科教师教育者身份认同可以概念化为学科认同、教学认同和研究认同。其中,学科认同是基础,教学认同是关键,研究认同是巩固和提升,实践是教学认同和研究认同不可或缺的基础。学科教师教育者身份认同是在个人维度和环境维度的博弈和协商的建构主义路径下形成的。近年来师范大学中形成了文理学院模式、教育学院模式、不完全教师教育学院模式和完全教师教育学院模式等教师教育机构组织形式,教育学院模式有利于形成明确和坚定的学科教师教育者认同。     

教师专业认同:从专业角色走向身份认同

后现代情境中教师专业角色面对悖论,症结则在于现代主义对教师声音的剥夺,教师只是成为角色面具下的工具,因此彰显教师自我意识的身份认同概念成为主流。但其走向身份认同过程中,权力、文化和社群的力量会制造出"认同假象",背后仍然是对教师自主的宰制。因此要支持教师自主建构专业身份认同,则必然从权力、文化和社群三种空间的赋予入手,特别是通过专业学习社群的建构来实现。     

教师专业身份认同的理性思考

教师的专业身份认同对于推进课程改革的顺利实现具有重要的现实意义。教师发展从概念内涵、研究视角、理论形态和价值取向等不同维度来理解“角色规定”与“身份认同”之间的不同,有利于促进教师专业发展从外在的角色规定到内在的身份认同的转变。     

教师身份认同及其提升

职业身份认同主要是一个职业认知的过程,在职业认知的基础上就有可能产生职业情感和职业归属感,最终形成职业身份认同。教师身份认同作为一个涉及教学和教师教育的概念,具有建构意义和过程意义。要提升教师身份认同度,进而增强教师的职业责任感,应建构正确的教师职业认知,寻求教师职业的自我认知与公共认知的一致性;构建教师身份的公共认同转化为自我认同的落实机制,促进二者的高度内洽;完善教育学科的学科体系建设,提升教师教育专业化水平。     

欧洲教师教育者身份认同危机的由来、表现及转化

欧洲范围内,教师教育者仍然是一个未被充分研究和缺乏了解的职业群体。政策制定者也忽略了教师教育者,把重点放在教师教育的结构和教师教育项目与学生成绩的关系上。基于此背景,教师教育者缺少以专业活动为基础的学术知识库以及专业角色本质的不确定性,导致他们产生专业归属危机和专业身份割裂问题。其主要原因为机构规定的专业角色与教师教育者理想身份的失衡、专业发展缺失与教师教育者理想身份的失衡、学术共同体与教师教育者理想身份的失衡。教师教育者身份认同危机的转化需要从自我意义和群体归属两个方面得以解决,即进行自我研究并建立强有力的专业组织。     

教师“身份认同”的理性思考

教师的身份认同对于推进课程改革的顺利实现具有重要的现实意义。在辨析教师的角色规定与身份认同的基础上,本文认为,教师的身份认同是教师个体自我不断自主建构的过程,它强调教师在实践中实际运用理论的价值,并关注其作为生命性存在的生存方式。只有正确认识两者之间的分别,才能帮助教师实现从外在的角色规定到内在的身份认同的转变。     

教师“身份认同”的理性思考

教师的身份认同对于推进课程改革的顺利实现具有重要的现实意义.通过辨析教师的角色规定与身份认同在概念内涵,实现途径、实践中的理论形态和教师的存在方式之间的差异,指出教师的身份认同是教师个体自我不断自主建构的过程,它强调教师在实践中实际运用理论的价值,并关注其作为生命性存在的生存方式.只有正确认识两者之问的分别,才能帮助教师实现从外在的角色规定到内在的身份认同的转变.     

教师身份认同困境的表征、机制与出路

教师身份认同困境成了当前教育改革最基本的处境,作为教育学界一个新型的议题,对教师身份认同困境的研究主要集中在表征、机制与出路三个层面。就表征而言,教师身份认同的困境呈现在自我价值感和意义感的丧失、教师专业身份的泛化等多个维度。就生成机制而言,在教师身份认同的困境生成的过程中,从国家政策制度下的改革压力对本体性安全的破坏,复杂社会环境下“夹缝生存”的边缘地位等方面深度剖析了教师身份认同困境的成因。就突破出路而言,从社会、机构与个人在形成教师身份认同中的动态关系考虑,通过社会意向层面,建立教师教育者的标准、教师专业共同体与个人发展等为教师身份认同困境提供解决路径。     

Teacher educators’ identity: a review of literature

Research suggests that the development of a teacher educator identity is a central process in becoming a teacher educator. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in the concept of teacher identity. However, teacher educator identity seems to be still under-researched. In this article, a review of literature on teacher educator identity is provided. Fifty-two research papers were analysed to identify challenges and tensions teacher educators experience during their induction, factors which influence the development of their professional identity, and the features that induction programmes should have. The findings suggested that new teacher educators generally develop negative self-views about their abilities and professional identities. Self-support and community support activities were found to facilitate teacher educators’ transition and enhance their identity development. Key features of academic induction were identified as acting as a learning community, cultivating supportive and professional relationships, encouraging self-enquiry and research and involving teacher educators in reflective activities.     

教师教育的实践态势透视

新时期的教师教育,需要冷静衡量教育理论在教师发展中的作用,树立正确的教育理论教学观,提供优质的教育理论资源,采用多种方式实现教育理论与实践的对接,以改变当前教育理论被渎贬的实践态势。     

Student teachers’ opinion of the pastoral role module in a Postgraduate Certificate in Education programme

Abstract

The Norms and Standards for Educators (2000) recognises a well-defined community, citizenship and pastoral role as one of seven roles of a competent and qualified educator. In 2005 a module dealing with the pastoral role was introduced as part of the Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE – Senior Phase and FET) programme in the institution under study. The aim of this article is to report the outcomes of an empirical study of student teachers’ opinion on the module. A group-administered questionnaire was used to determine student teachers’ opinion regarding the extent and the adequacy of the module to prepare them for their future pastoral role. The student teachers have an overall positive opinion of the module. Grove's pastoral community model is put forward to enhance the quality of the pastoral role training provided in the programme.     

Student teachers’ beliefs about the teacher’s role in inclusive education

The main aim of this research is to examine the basic features of student teachers’ professional beliefs about the teacher’s role in relation to teaching mainstream pupils and pupils with developmental disabilities. The starting assumption of this analysis is that teacher professional development is largely dependent upon teachers’ beliefs about various facets of their professional work. These concepts strongly influence the way that teachers teach and the way that they develop as teachers. The participants in the research are 314 student teachers at the Faculty of Teacher Education of the University of Zagreb who are being prepared to teach in lower grades of primary school. The beliefs were explored using a metaphor technique derived from cognitive theory of metaphor. The differences between beliefs about the perceived teacher role in general, and the perceived teacher role in the education of pupils with developmental disabilities were analysed. The results indicate that the dominant belief about the teacher’s role in teaching mainstream pupils is of the teacher as a transmitter of knowledge, while the findings regarding the dominant belief about the teacher’s role in teaching pupils with developmental difficulties appeared to be self-cantered orientation. No differences were found between student teachers at different study levels. The findings are discussed in the light of the curriculum of initial teacher education.
