中学教师专业发展与英语教师教育职前培养探究

On the Professional Development and the Pre-service Education of English Teachers

中学教师专业发展有其阶段性存在,而教师教育职前培养和教师在职专业发展,是一个统一完整和持续不断的专业发展过程。当前教师教育职前培养,对英语师范生素质结构,英语教育界已有广泛的认同,但对其素质培养的途径和方法的教学实践,收效却不甚理想。我们认为,英语专业师范生素质培养,在注重专业知识、专业技能和专业素养培养的同时,切不能忽视几种核心能力的培养:1.专业发展规划意识和能力;2.自主学习态度和能力;3.教学技能实践与反思能力;4.教学科研能力。

The phases exist in the teacher professional development for middle school teachers. And both the pre-service and in-service phases are regarded as an entirely continuous process. The quality of English teachers is generally acknowledged in the English teaching circle in China. But the effectiveness of its teaching and learning is not satisfactory. We believe that during the pre-service education, besides the English subject-matter abilities, an emphasis should be placed on the following four core abilities： 1. Career planning awareness;2. Learning autonomy awareness ;3. Teaching skills practice and reflection;4. Action research awareness.
