An introduction to an English Teacher Education Program

Teacher training for primary and secondary schools in the underdeveloped areas in China was rather inadequate in terms of teaching skills.It's imperative to direct more attention to the English teachers in these areas and provide opportunities for them to receive in-service training so that they can update their subject matter knowledge and pedagogic knowledge to facilitate their teaching.In light of this demand,this paper presents a one-year-long program that is tailored to the needs of the secondary school teachers of English in the inland areas,by giving a detailed description of the knowledge base they need together with the rationale underlying such a design.

Teaching Programming Concepts to K-12 Teachers With Scratch

This study aims to investigate teaching programming concepts to K-12 teachers with Scratch. A total of 10 K-12 teachers enrolled in one graduate course participated in this study. They received lectures, took practices and exercises of Scratch programming and were then asked to design and implement their projects before the semester. It was found that teaching programming concepts to K-12 teachers with Scratch is feasible. K-12 teachers with less computer background can learned basic programming concepts and applied them in their project code implementation. Although no significant difference was found between participants＇ pre-test and post-test on programming self-efficacy, positive attitudes toward learning Scratch programming was revealed in the questionnaire survey and results of interviews. This study paves a way for referring to the teaching of programming concepts for K- 12 teachers.

新文科背景下课程思政融入师范专业课程的困境与出路

新文科建设的改革与实践对于培养担当民族复兴大任的时代新人具有深远价值和意义,课程思政有效融入是新文科建设的重要内容。研究在S大学师范学院随机抽取38名专任教师和291名大一至大三年级师范生进行问卷调查,发现当前师范专业课程思政融入的主要困境在于教师课程思政融入意识薄弱、课程思政元素开发能力不足、教学方式的综合运用欠缺、课程思政评价方式单一。基于此,研究认为可以从教师和高校两个方面出发促进师范专业课程思政融入:教师需要树立以德育人观念,探课程思政融入策略;学校可以通过“减”“赋”“增”路径助力课程思政。

职业院校体育教师“素质提高计划”项目实施现状与提升策略

为了解职业院校体育教师“素质提高计划”项目实施的现状及诸多问题,分析并寻求对策。该研究以湖北工业大学2019—2021年承担的职业院校体育教师“素质提高计划”项目为例,选取湖北省及新疆的150名中高职体育教师作为研究对象,主要从培训需求、培训方案、课程设计、培训方式、效果评价、项目特色创新和训后跟踪指导等方面对“素质提高计划”的实施现状进行调查。研究发现,培训基地的培训需求侧调查分析还不够精确,针对性把脉区域教情、学情,找准区域师资队伍建设及校本研修工作短板亟需提高;培训方案规划、课程设计的设置较为合理,其中部分专题,如实践指导环节有待提升;学员与培训教师深度互动的实效性有待优化;多数学员在选择培训内容倾向于经验引领,学员理论水平亟需提高;学员培训后续跟踪指导环节如同虚设,对学员的训后跟踪指导环节及效果监测工作亟需加强;项目特色创新不够明显。提升“素质提高计划”项目实施效果,需从学员的实际需求出发,找准培训目标定位,精准设计培训方案;全面掌握学员的专业发展特点,科学、系统性设置培训专题内容;遵循成人和体育教师的生活与学习的特点,精心选择培训方式;采取科学递进式的学员评价体系,充分激发学员能力提升的自觉性;充分凝聚人力资源,科学组建高水平的培训团队;切实保障培训实施质量与效果,有效建构学员可持续发展的监测机制。

规范与促进——对我国师范类专业认证制度高校实践的审视

师范类专业认证作为一项国家制度,自2014年教育部在江苏、广西启动认证试点以来,先后经历了入轨、逐步铺开到制度化实施阶段。经过10年的探索与实践,师范类专业认证制度在落实党和国家关于教师队伍建设和教师教育工作大政方针,规范师范类专业办学行为,促进师范类专业内涵建设,转变教师教育教学观念,提升高校教师教学素质,健全高校质量保障体系等方面发挥了积极作用,形成高校更加重视师范类专业、考生更加青睐师范类专业、学界更加关注师范类专业和社会更加关心师范类专业的基本局面。同时也发现,认证进度呈现区域化差异、重视程度出现校际差异、投入精力表现个体差异,对认证制度的价值意蕴理解不深,复杂性认识不足,共性问题研究不够。为更好发挥其制度优势,应进一步完善制度运行机制,督促行动者精力投入,强化对课程评价突出问题的专题性研究。

公费师范生动态从教意愿的影响因素与引导策略研究

通过对69名在读和已经毕业的省/部属公费师范生一对一半结构深度访谈,运用扎根理论方法,三级编码分析公费师范生动态从教意愿影响因素及其关联关系,并思考何以完善公费师范生政策。研究发现:个人理想和职业形象是公费师范生从教意愿的持续影响因素;分数限制、他人建议、师者影响、家庭境遇、政策感知等外部因素,自我意识等内部因素,会影响报考前“虚拟教师”的从教意愿;就读体验、职业体会和履约意愿会影响就读时“准教师”的从教意愿;发展抉择和执教忠诚会影响工作后“正式教师”的从教意愿。从报考到就读再到工作,可将公费师范生的动态从教意愿划分为积极稳定、正向顺转、消极稳定、负向逆转四种类型。由此,可围绕报考、就读和工作三个阶段,针对从教意愿影响因素,改进和完善公费师范生政策,让乐教适教的优秀学生选择和扎根基层教育。
