高校法语教师专业生活中的情感体验个案研究

Understanding the Emotional Experiences of University French Teachers in Their Professional Lives:A Multiple Case Study

教师情感与其专业发展的方方面面紧密关联,但有关我国外语教师尤其是小语种教师的情感研究尚少。本研究采用质性个案研究方法探究了国内五位高校法语教师在专业生活中的情感体验。对研究参与者的访谈揭示,他们在其专业生活中的多个方面,如学生、同侪、教学、科研及职称等,体验了具有多样性、复合性及变化性的情感。本研究可为外语教师的情感研究、职称评定、教学评估及同侪合作等提供启示。

Teacher emotion is intimately involved in virtually every aspect of teacher professional development.However,there is a dearth of research on foreign language teacher emotion in Chinese contexts,and even less is know n about teachers of foreign languages other than English.Adopting a qualitative case study method,this study investigated the emotional experiences of five university French teachers in their professional lives in China.Interview s with the participants revealed that they experienced diverse,compound,and dynamic emotions in relation to their students,colleagues,teaching,research,and professional ranking.This study may offer implications for further research into language teacher emotion,and also for teachers' professional promotion,teaching evaluation and collegial collaboration in similar contexts.
