Given the complexity of education today, becoming a teacher is not an easy task. In this context, professional development plays an essential role in order to maintain and improve both personal and professional skills (Friedman and Philips, 2001). It also represents an opportunity to react at educational dilemmas which frequently appear in the early years of teaching. In Catalunya, since the 2006 -2007 course, the Department of Education applies the induction program called Comencem Bé, addressed to substitute teachers during their first school year. Its objective is to help novice teachers to develop their profession. The theoretical framework states the concept and models of professional development, focusing on mentoring and induction programmes which enrich the teaching strategies of beginning teachers. Then, the practical framework consists of a research project about the teachers’ experience while mentoring at schools in Catalunya, which gives the approach of all the people involved in the programme / Davant la complexitat del context educatiu actual el repte d'iniciar-se en la professió docent no és fàcil. En aquest context, el desenvolupament professional esdevé un component essencial per mantenir i millorar les habilitats personals i professionals (Friedman i Philips, 2001) i una oportunitat per donar resposta als dilemes que s'accentuen en els primers anys d’exercici docent. A Catalunya, des del curs 2006-2007 s'aplica el programa d'inserció professional Comencem Bé, que té com objectiu ajudar el docent novell a desenvolupar la seva professió. En el marc teòric es concreta el concepte i models de desenvolupament professional centrant-se en el mentoring i els programes d'inducció a la docència. En el marc pràctic es presenta una investigació sobre el procés de tutoria del primer any d'experiència docent en centres de Catalunya, que aporta la percepció dels quatre agents que participen al programa: interins, tutors, inspecció educativa i equips directius

This thesis document presents a case study of a professional development playbuilding process at a public elementary school located in Austin, Texas. The study argues that playbuilding is a form of participatory action arts-based research particularly when positioned within the professional development setting. This qualitative study uses a narrative thematic analysis of the playbuilding process and workshop performance to examine how reflective and reflexive practice is situated within playbuilding as professional development. The document concludes with a discussion of the limitations and transformative potential of playbuilding and argues for the creation of critical pedagogical professional learning communities for teachers in school settings. / text

Inligting en kommunikasietegnologie (IKT) vorm ‘n belangrike komponent van effektiewe onderrig en leer. Ten spyte van die gedokumenteerde voordele wat IKT vir onderrig en leer inhou, bly IKT–integrering in skole steeds gebrekkig. Die implementering van IKT om onderrig en leer oor ‘n wye reeks van leerareas te bevorder en uit te brei, blyk ‘n groot uitdaging by meeste skole te wees. Faktore soos fiskale verpligtinge, ruimtelike hindernisse, ondoeltreffende en gebrekkige infrastruktuur en swak koördinering ondermyn meeste pogings tot effektiewe en volhoubare IKT–gebruik. Onderwysers wat begin het om IKT in hul onderrigpraktyke toe te pas, verlang verskillende vorms van ondersteuning, insluitend die van tegniese en implementeringsondersteuning. Die SITES modules help om die pad na volhoubare IKT–gebruik in Suid–Afrika aan te dui deur die vernaamste studies plaaslik en internasionaal uiteen te sit, beste praktyke te beklemtoon en die noodsaaklikheid van tegnologiekoördineerders te bevestig. Die doel van die navorsing is gefokus op die rol wat die tegnologiekoördineerder vertolk in die implementering en benutting van IKT in Suid Afrikaanse skole. Hierdie inligting kan nuttig wees om huidige onderrig en leerpraktyke in oënskou te neem en om ingeligte besluite rakende effektiewe en volhoubare IKT–gebruik in onderrig en leer te neem.

Die studie het ‘n SDA metodologie van die Suid Afrikaanse tegnologiekoördineerders gevolg. Aangesien Suid–Afrika aan al drie studies deelgeneem het kon uit die literatuur longitudinale tendense aangedui word met betrekking tot IKT–gebruik in Suid–Afrikaanse skole. Tydens die SDA is beskrywende statistiek uitgevoer en kruistabulerings bereken om betekenisvolle korrelasies tussen veranderlikes te bepaal. Alhoewel meeste tegnologiekoördineerders aangetoon het dat die gebruik van IKT relevant is binne hulle skole, is die vlak van IKT–gebruik binne vakverband besonder laag weens talle struikelblokke wat die gebruik van IKT in skole belemmer. Daar is ‘n beperkte hoeveelheid rekenaars en skootrekenaars beskikbaar per skool. By die meeste skole tree onderwysers op as tegnologiekoördineerders wat ook dan verantwoordelikheid aanvaar vir die instandhouding van die rekenaars. Die tegnologiekoördineerder se pligte en verantwoordelikheid bestaan hoofsaaklik uit die onderrig van ander vakke en relatief min tyd word gewy aan IKTkursusse vir leerders en onderwysers, en juis daarom is die formele rol wat die tegnologiekoördineerder vertolk betreklik laag. Hoewel onderwysers in die meeste skole optree as tegnologiekoördineerders, ontvang hulle kommerwekkend min professionele onderwysersontwikkeling (POO). Die studie toon aan dat onderwysers onvoldoende tegniese ondersteuning ontvang. Tegnologiekoördineerders het betreklik min periodes per week tot hul beskikking om IKT–ondersteuning aan te bied. Prakties betekenisvolle korrelasies tussen die gebruik van IKT in die onderrig en leer van leerareas hang af van die beskikbaarheid van IKT–toerusting.

以英語為母語以及非英語為母語之教師，兩者間之協同教學國家級計劃，從1990年代開始在日本、韓國及香港各地執行。過去十年，台灣地區共有兩個相關計劃：一個位於中部某縣轄市；另一個則在北部地區，由該地方教育局與某知名學術基金會合作執行。關於這類的計畫，目前已有文獻探討執行上的困難，主要包括文化歧見、老師教學效能、與行政單位之運作問題，但其實卻並無整體評析之深入研究可供參考。 本研究遵循質化與量化的方法，針對北部之計畫為對象，深入評析中外師協同教學執行一年後之師生學習成效。研究首先以量化方式以成就測驗與態度問卷了解計畫中80名四年級與六年級小學生的英文學習成果、他們對英文的態度以及學習動機。另外又以訪談、課室觀察以及教學日記蒐集資料，分三組追蹤調查六位中外師之專業成長，藉衛考斯基的社會文化理論做分析，而文化體認方面，則以第三向度觀點，了解不同文化背景的老師之發展。 研究結果顯示此項中外師協同教學計劃對學生學習有正面作用，但程度則多有不同。學生之閱讀與聽力有成長，四年級學生受益又比六年級學生更多，但成果則因時間較短而稍顯淺薄。另一方面，中外教師在專業知識與文化體認上有顯著成長，可以說是本計畫最大受益者。 整體而言，計畫單位對中外師雙方合作關係之培養具備完善的機制，而在文化體認方面又有一群能夠以持平立場看待文化差距的諮詢專家，為中外師創造第三向度合作空間，使雙方能夠大方擁抱兩種文化且無需掩飾彼此之不同。這些設計使計劃更有效能，整體執行方式具參考價值。 / National co-teacher programs involving native English speaker teachers (NESTs) and non-native English speaker teachers (NNESTs) have been in operation since the 1990’s in Japan, Korea and Hong Kong. Two major programs have been established in Taiwan in the last ten years, one by a city government in the central part of Taiwan, the other by the education bureau of a rural county in the north, in collaboration with a well known academic exchange foundation. The cultural, pedagogical and administrative challenges such schemes face are well documented but there has been little evaluation of the benefits for stakeholders This study focused on the program in northern Taiwan and followed a mixed methods approach in order to trace learning gains from co-teaching for teachers and students over the course of one year. Students’ gains in English proficiency and changes in attitude and motivation were measured in a quantitative study involving over 80 4th and 6th grade students who were tested and surveyed. A triple case study investigated growth in professional knowledge and cultural awareness in three teaching pairs through interviews, class observation and teacher journals. Teacher learning was studied through the prism of socio-cultural theory and growth in cultural awareness from the perspective of thirdness. The program was found to have a positive effect on students, but in varying degrees. Student scores in both reading and listening proficiency improved while their attitudes and motivation were positive. Proficiency gains were greater among 4th graders than 6th graders, but the results also showed that for students, the impact of a one year program is relatively shallow. Teachers grew considerably in both professional knowledge and cultural awareness and were the greatest beneficiaries of the program. This study also found that the effectiveness of the program was facilitated by certain enabling mechanisms which nurtured the relationship between NESTs and NNESTs. Cultural awareness was facilitated by a culturally fair panel which helped create third spaces where teachers could embrace both cultures without hiding the differences between them.

教育首重教師，而師資培育也是國內教育科系設立的首要目標，而培養優良教師更是其中最重要的目的，因此如何成為優良教師的知識學問其重要性自不待言。本研究乃環扣此一立意，初衷乃在探究如何成為師鐸獎教師的原因，以提供有志成為優良教師之人努力的方向。 本研究採用訪談法進行研究，研究對象為2010年台北市十位師鐸獎教師。由於師鐸獎教師的故事各有其多元繽紛的色彩，很難用一個固定模式加以齊一，但是從長遠的縱貫發展的觀點來看，仍然透露出各個階段的主要特徵。所以研究者從文獻探討中歸納出教師發展的三個階段：適應與建立能力、專業成長與發展、以及專業成熟，並以此為框架將師鐸獎教師們各自的精彩故事做為內容敘述，使得各階段的理論概念敘述得到生活實例的印證。再者，除了理論性的階段探討與故事敘述的印證外，本研究還以進入教職以後的「教師生涯發展」為主軸，另加入影響教師專業發展六個影響因素的內容為輔，鋪敘出九位師鐸獎教師的生涯發展故事，使得本研究不僅有理論概念的探討，也有具體可親活生生的故事呈現。 另外，師鐸獎教師為何能夠成為師鐸獎教師，本研究從「教師專業發展」的角度著手，藉由文獻探討歸納六個重要的影響因素：「家庭」、「高中以前的求學歷程」、「教育專業訓練」、「學校組織環境」、「在職成長」以及「個人特質」，並且從這六個因素去訪問師鐸獎教師們，並以師鐸獎教師的回答內容為基礎，再進一步的濃縮成概念性的內容。 最後，本研究以整體的角度為「師鐸獎教師的生涯發展」與「生涯發展的重要因素」主題做結論的總結如下： 一、 在六個影響因素當中，最重要的是盡心付出的個人特質； 二、 原生家庭父母親的身教影響深遠； 三、 小時候家庭環境的辛苦不一定有害，也可能成為未來的助益，關鍵乃在於正面的面對方式； 四、 「不反對」是婚姻家庭方面的基本支持； 五、 過去師長的言行態度是從事教職的重要參考； 六、 教育專業訓練對當事人主觀上的教育專業發展似乎意義不大； 七、 學校組織環境是累積能力的良好環境； 八、 教師專業成長從教學開始，進而充分發揮教師的角色功能； 九、 當事人的在職成長皆表現出不同於一般的具體投入行為； 十、 在職成長缺少有系統有組織的整體明確規劃； 十一、 積極正面的做事態度是很重要的個人特質； 最後，根據研究結果與討論提出關於成為優良教師的建議，乃分別從對教師個人、對學校、對教育政策，以及對未來研究四個方面進行條列式的建議。 / Teachers are the most important elements of teaching, and teacher cultivation is the most crucial task in the establishment of departments of education nationwide. The chief objective of all such institutions is to cultivate excellent teachers. Therefore, the importance of knowing how to become an excellent teacher goes without saying. The present study focuses on the above knowledge by exploring the experiences of teachers who have won the Teaching Excellence Award in order to provide examples for others striving to become excellent teachers. This study adopted the interview method and recruited ten teachers who won the Taipei City 2010 Teaching Excellence Award as participants. Due to the diverse nature of the stories of these award-winning teachers, it was hard to unify them into a single framework. However, when viewed from a more distant perspective, we are still able to make out the main features of the phases that these teachers went through. We were also able to identify three phases of teacher development based on a literature review: adaptation and establishment, professional growth and development, and professional maturity. These three main phases were then used as a framework to better understand the helpful stories of these award-winning teachers. The stories can in turn provide real life proof for the concept of each phase. In addition to discussing the theories related to these phases and proving them with actual examples, the current study also used “teaching career development” as a theme and incorporated six influencing factors relating to the professional development of teachers to illustrate the professional development stories of nine award-winning teachers. This research not only contains discussions on the theoretical concepts, but also presents specific, real-life stories. The reasons behind becoming a Teaching Excellence Award winning teacher are viewed from the “teaching professionalism development” perspective, and explored through the six important influencing factors identified via literature review, specifically, “family,” “the course of education prior to high school,” “educational professional training,” “school system and environment,” “professional growth,” and “personal features.” The award-winning teachers were interviewed with the above six factors in mind, and conceptual content was then further extracted through their answers. Lastly, the study used “the teaching career development of the Teaching Excellence Award winning teachers” and “the important factors influencing career development” as the overall perspective themes and concluded the following: 1. The most important factor among the six influencing factors is the personal feature of devoted effort; 2. The family-of-origin parenting effects are profound; 3. Hardships encountered during childhood are not necessarily detrimental and can even become beneficial in the future; the key lies within the way one directly confronts these hardships; 4. “Not objecting” is the most fundamental way of expressing support in married families; 5. The behaviors and attitudes of the teachers in the past are important references for teaching conduct; 6. Educational professional training seems relatively unimportant to the course of education professionalism development from the participants’ point of view; 7. The school system and environment is a good place to acquire and accumulate teaching abilities; 8. A teacher’s professional growth begins with teaching and expands to the full display of the teacher’s function and role; 9. The subjects showed exceptional activity in contributing to their own professional growth when compared to others; 10. Professional growth in general lacks clear overall systematic and organized planning; 11. Proactive and positive attitudes are very important personal features. In conclusion, based on research results and discussions, many helpful suggestions were made regarding the process of becoming an excellent teacher. Itemized suggestions for teachers, schools, education policies, and future research aspects were included.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / This research was carried out between 2007 and 2009, inside the Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação from UFSM/RS, linked to Research Project Dilemas e Perspectivas para a Inovação Educacional na Educação Básica e na Formação de Professores (DIPIED) and to the Studies, Researches and Interventions Group Inovação Educacional, Práticas Educativas e Formação de Professores (INOVAEDUC) . The main purpose was to characterize the professional identity construction process of Pre-service Curricular Training (PCT) teachers at Teacher Education Courses (TEC), in order to contribute to a better understanding of these function development particularities and the formative and professional activities that can help in this function development. For that, we proposed the following research problem: In which proportion the PCT teachers professional identity formation conditioning factors interfere in the professional identity formation of a professional group that develops this function? To carry out this research, we used a qualitative approach, through we did 45 structured individuals interviews with PCT teachers. In the total, considering that some people were interviewed in two different steps of the work, we involved 31 PCT supervising teachers in 15 of the 19 TEC from UFSM. To analyse the interviews, we applied some principles from the called Análise do Conteúdo. We pointed out some factors that conditioning the PCT teachers professional identity formation process investigated and we present them in an non-growing order of importance in this process: (1) initial identification process with PCT supervision function, in special, the activities mentioned as basis to this process; (2) the essential characteristics and set of knowledge to develop this function, considering their responsibility for pre-service students professional as well personal formation; (3) the formative teachers individuals conceptions related to PCT supervision function, which, several of them are very similar to a certain pedagogical ideals or to a consolidated pedagogical common sense; (4) the constant confrontation between relational and biographic components from the identity formation, being that the first seems weakened , due to the absence or reduced interactive forms among the formative teachers within the collective of PCT supervisors investigated; (5) the local professional culture of PCT supervisors collective , which interferes in the identity formation in less proportion, as consequence of the few interaction established among the formative teachers. Considering such factors and the relative importance of each one of them, we can affirm that the PCT teachers, from UFSM TEC, professional identity formation process is characterized by the individualism and it has as a basis the discovery of how developing this function from the own practice or from the moment in which the supervisors actions are disarticulated from models and practices that they lived in the students position, mainly, during their owns pre-service trainings. Besides, it is a gradual and unfinished process due to the how developing this function learning is strongly related to: (1) the changes that occur in the schools spaces; (2) the different troubles lived by the pre-service teachers during their practice development; (3) the institutional alterations, that occurs in the preservice schools or in the formative institution, or still the normative ones, originated from teaching system management official authorities, referent to the PCT organization and the development in TEC. / Esta pesquisa foi desenvolvida entre 2007 e 2009, no âmbito do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da UFSM/RS, vinculada ao Projeto de Pesquisa Dilemas e Perspectivas para a Inovação Educacional na Educação Básica e na Formação de Professores (DIPIED) e ao Grupo de Estudos, Pesquisas e Intervenções Inovação Educacional, Práticas Educativas e Formação de Professores (INOVAEDUC) . O objetivo principal foi caracterizar o processo de construção da identidade profissional de professores orientadores de Estágio Curricular Pré-Profissional (ECPP) em Cursos de Licenciatura (CL), de modo a contribuir para uma melhor compreensão das especificidades inerentes ao desempenho dessa função e das atividades formativas e profissionais, possíveis de auxiliar no desempenho dessa função. Para isso, nos propusemos o seguinte problema de pesquisa: Em que medida os fatores condicionantes da formação da identidade profissional de professores orientadores de ECPP interferem na formação da identidade profissional de um grupo de profissionais que desempenham essa função? Para o desenvolvimento do trabalho, utilizamo-nos de uma abordagem qualitativa, mediante a qual realizamos 45 entrevistas individuais estruturadas com professores orientadores de ECPP. No total, considerando-se que alguns sujeitos foram entrevistados em duas etapas distintas do trabalho, envolvemos 31 professores que orientam ECPP em 15 dos 19 CL da UFSM. Para análise dessas entrevistas, empregamos alguns princípios da chamada Análise de Conteúdo. Evidenciamos alguns fatores que condicionam o processo de formação das identidades profissionais dos orientadores de ECPP investigados e os apresentamos em ordem decrescente de importância nesse processo: (1) o processo de identificação inicial com a função de orientação de ECPP, em especial, as atividades mencionadas como base para esse processo; (2) as características e os saberes essenciais para desempenho dessa função, considerando sua responsabilidade pela formação profissional, bem como pessoal, do aluno estagiário; (3) as concepções individuais dos formadores, relativas à função de orientação de ECPP, as quais, em boa parte, assemelham-se a um certo ideário pedagógico ou a um senso comum pedagógico consolidado; (4) o constante confronto entre o componente relacional e o componente biográfico da formação identitária, sendo que o primeiro se mostra enfraquecido , devido à ausência ou às reduzidas formas de interação entre os formadores dentro do coletivo de orientadores de ECPP investigado; (5) a cultura profissional local do coletivo de orientadores de ECPP, a qual condiciona a formação identitária em menor proporção, por conseqüência da pouca interação estabelecida entre os próprios formadores. Considerando tais fatores e a importância relativa de cada um deles, podemos afirmar que o processo de formação da identidade profissional de orientadores de ECPP, atuantes em CL da UFSM, caracteriza-se pelo individualismo e tem por base a descoberta de como desempenhar essa função, a partir da própria atuação ou a partir do momento em que as ações dos orientadores se desvinculam de modelos e de práticas que vivenciaram na condição de alunos, em especial, durante os seus próprios ECPP. Além disso, esse é um processo gradual e inacabado devido à aprendizagem de como desempenhar essa função estar fortemente relacionada com: (1) as mudanças que ocorrem no funcionamento dos espaços escolares; (2) os diferentes problemas vivenciados pelos alunos estagiários no desenvolvimento de suas práticas; (3) as alterações de caráter institucional, sejam elas efetivadas nas escolas campo de estágio ou efetivadas na agência formadora, ou ainda as de caráter normativo, emanadas das instâncias oficiais de administração dos sistemas de ensino, referentes à organização e ao desenvolvimento dos ECPP em CL.
