关于替代性执照职教教师的纵向研究——以美国俄亥俄州为例

A Longitudinal Study of Alternatively Licensed Career and Technical Teachers

留住合格的教师是职业教育师资队伍建设的重要内容。通过分析美国俄亥俄州参加暑期研修班教师的人口统计学数据,发现了美国职教教师留任的变化趋势,包括教师留任率随教育背景变化、不同性别教师成为职教教师的可能性变化以及教育领域内的工作身份变化等。据此,需要关注由替代性执照职教教师所组成课堂的多样性、职教教师完成继续教育和获取学位的要求以及影响保留率的立法政策等。

Retaining qualified career and technical education teachers(CTE) is crucial to the continued supply and reduced demand of these types of teachers. Demographic data and emerging trends of CTE teachers were analyzed for those teachers who completed a summer workshop as part of alternative licensure. Some of the emerging trends included shifts in retention rates during certain school years, years in which enrollment was highest for each gender, and changes in employment status within education. Conclusions and discussions derived from the study were a need for teacher educators to become aware of a diverse classroom of alternative CTE teachers, CTE teachers completing continuing education and degree requirements, and legislative policies that impact retention rates.
