The lesson study professional development process : exploring the learning experiences of elementary and middle school teachersHarle, Carol Berg 09 October 2012 (has links)
Lesson study has been introduced in the United States as a collaborative professional development process focusing on improving teachers’ content knowledge and instructional skills as teachers plan a research lesson, teach and observe students’ thinking and learning behaviors and then revise and re-teach the lesson. The origin of lesson study in the United States began shortly after, The Teaching Gap by James Stigler and James Hiebert was published in 1999. The researchers attributed Japanese students’ high achievement scores in mathematics and science to their teachers’ participation in the lessons study process. Lesson study professional development formally began with a grant from the U.S. Department of Education in 1999; however, research on effective professional development programs and practices have been studied and reported for decades. Results from these studies and findings on teacher and adult learning were examined and reported in this study. This case study examined the learning experiences of six elementary and middle school teachers as they participated in the lesson study process. The teachers first began with sessions on discussing lesson study research, the lesson study process and viewing other teachers participating in lesson study. The teachers later collaborated to create, teach, observe, revise and re-teach a 5th grade mathematics research lesson on elapsed time during summer school. The qualitative research incorporated teacher interviews, observations, written reflections and artifacts such as agendas, planning documents and lesson plans. The data collected helped provide insight in examining the three research questions: a) How do teachers understand lesson study as a professional development process?; b) How will engaging in the lesson study affect the teachers’ planning and practices?; and c) What are some challenges in learning and applying key lesson study concepts? The case study data affirmed existing research on quality professional development, effective teacher/adult learning and accurate lesson study practices and supported the emerging themes of the teachers’ valuing collaboration, teachers’ valuing the deepening of their mathematics understanding and enhancing of their instructional practices, and finally, the teachers’ valuing the incorporation of student thinking in their planning, teaching and re-teaching experiences. / text

The use of teaching portfolios in the in-service professional development of school educatorsMtose, Xoliswa A. 04 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2002. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The aim of the study was to critically evaluate the use of portfolios as a basis for reflection in an inservice
education programme for school educators. In this context the study had the following
objectives: to establish a theoretical background for the use of teaching portfolios; to provide a
rationale for teaching portfolios as tools for professional development of teachers; to investigate the
use of teaching portfolios as tools for reflection in an in-service teacher education programme and to
provide guidelines for utilising teaching portfolios as reflection tools for professional development
of in-service teachers.
The Diploma in Education (DE) formed the basis of the case study. This undergraduate Diploma
in Education is at level 5 (b). According to the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) it is the
level at which upgrading teachers who are regarded as 'unqualified' access the bachelor study. The
DE is a typical case, because the findings from this case might be used to inform other
undergraduate diplomas in Education accredited by the NQF in South Africa. Six in-service
teachers were targeted for the research. At the time of analysis the teachers were in the first year
of a two-year diploma in Education (DE) programme. The unit of analysis of this study was
teachers' portfolios. The purpose of analysing portfolios was to find out how the portfolios portray
the professional development of the teachers through their reflections.
techniques employed included document study, interviews and observations.
The data generating
The constant comparative method was used for data analysis. The categories derived from the data
analysis were the following: Portfolios are tools for learning from experience; Self assessment
strengthens commitment to competent classroom practice; Portfolios provide opportunities for
professional development. Concerns about portfolio development dissipate with time and Teachers
were able to reflect more deeply.
The teaching portfolio in this study has been identified as a vehicle for both self and collaborative
evaluation. Guidelines for implementing portfolios in an in-service teacher education programme
have been offered by this study, and recommendations have been made for further research. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van die studie was om die benutting van portefeuljes as 'n basis vir refleksie in 'n
indiensopleidingsprogram vir skoolopvoeders te gebruik. Binne hierdie konteks het die studie die
volgende doelwitte gehad: Om 'n teoretiese basis daar te stel vir die benutting van
onderrigportefeuljes; om 'n rasionaal te verskaf vir die benutting van onderrigportefeuljes as 'n
professionele ontwikkelingsinstrument; om die benutting van onderrigportefeuljes te ondersoek as
instrumente in 'n indiensopleidingsprogram vir skoolopvoeders, en om riglyne daar te stel vir die
benutting van onderrigportefeuljes vir die professionale ontwikkeling van skoolopvoeders.
Die Diploma in Onderwys (DO) het as basis vir die gevallestudie gedien. Hierdie voorgraadse
diploma in Onderwys is gelys op vlak 5(b) van die Nasionale Kwalifikasieraamwerk (NKR) en bied
aan "ongekwalifiseerde" opvoeders toegang tot graadstudies. Die DO is gesien as 'n tipiese geval,
aangesien die bevindinge van hierdie geval moontlik vir ander voorgraadse diplomas wat op die
NKR geregistreer is van waarde mag wees. Ses opvoeders wat indiensopleiding ondergaan het, het
die teikenpopulasie van die studie uitgemaak. Ten tye van die navorsing was die opvoeders in hul
eerste jaar van die tweejarige DO. Die eenheid van analise was die onderrigportefeuljes van die
opvoeders. Die doel met die analise van die portefeuljes was om vas te stel in watter mate dit die
professionele ontwikkeling van die opvoeders vergestalt deur hul eie reflektiewe aktiwiteite. Die
tegnieke waardeur die data gegenereer is het dokumentstudie, onderhoude en observasie ingesluit.
Die konstante vergelykingsmetode is benut in die analise van die data. Die analisekategorieë wat
vanuit die data afgelei is, het die volgende ingesluit: Portefeuljes is instrumente vir ervaringsleer;
Selfevaluering is versterkend in die verbintenis tot kompetente klaskamerpraktyk; Portefeuljes is
geleenthede tot professionele ontwikkeling; Die ontwikkeling van portefeuljes is tydrowend;
Opvoeders het die vermoë om in diepte te reflekteer.
In die studie IS die onderrigportefeulje geïdentifiseer as 'n instrument VIr beide self- en
samewerkende evaluering. Riglyne VIr die implementering van portefeuljes ill 'n
indiensopleidingsprogram is voorgstel en aanbevelings vir verdere navorsing is deur die studie
gemaak.

Staff development needs for teacher educators in the Northern Province with regard to the implementation of the National Qualifications FrameworkKubheka, Kgadi Rose January 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2000. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The purpose of this research was to identify staff development needs of teacher educators in
the Northern Province regarding the implementation of the National Qualifications
Framework. It also aimed at providing guidelines for staff development that could be used
to meet the identified needs. In order to achieve this purpose, the researcher consulted both
primary and secondary sources to gather information on the topic, that could also provide
background for the construction of data collecting instruments, which are the interview and
the questionnaire.
According to the literature research, South African teacher education is facing a lot of
changes. Government, industry and education community is concerned about the state of
teacher education, and have been involved in various initiatives to improve its quality. The
introduction of the NQF is an attempt to improve the quality of education and training. It
shed new light on concept concepts like qualifications, curriculum design and development,
quality of education, assessment of the work of learners and the governance of national
qualifications. It also introduced new perspective on concepts like the phases of education,
quality assurance, allocation of credits and outcomes.
Staff development is mentioned as a strategy that can be used to implement the changes that
the NQF came with. Factors that can support or hinder the implementation of the change
are highlighted through models. The models are explained and their relevance to the study
are interpreted. Methods and strategies for staff development are also mentioned. The methodology used to collect data, and the processes of analysis and interpretation of
data are also outlined. The interviews showed that colleges have started to implement
COTEP. The department of education disseminated information about the changes, held
workshops to ensure a common understanding, and left the colleges to implement the
changes. Teacher educators experienced problems in the following areas: compilation
of unit standards, quality assurance, determining admission criteria according to the NQF
and implementation of the programmes they have designed.
The questionnaires indicated that there is a lack of clear policies on how to equip the staff
with skills to implement change. Although some of the staff members are aware of the
changes, the information is not passed on to others. Lecturers are not familiar with basic
aspects of the NQF like bands, levels, aims, credits, notional hours,accreditation and
quality assurance. The link between COTEP and the NQF is not well understood. The
needs identified are listed, conclusions and recommendations as to how the
implementation could be more effective are made. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie navorsing was om die personeel-ontwikkelingsbehoeftes van
onderwyseropleiers in die Noordelike Provinsie te identifiseer in die lig van die
Nasionale Kwalifikasieraamwerk. Dit wil riglyne verskaf vir personeelontwikkeling,
wat gebruik kan word om die geïdentifiseerde behoeftes aan te spreek. Om hierdie
doel te bereik, het die navorser primêre en sekondêre bronne geraadpleeg om inligting
in te sameloor die onderwerp, sodat In basis daargestel kan word vir die ontwerp van
meetinstrumente, soos die gebruik van onderhoude en vraelyste
Gesien teen die agtergrond van heersende literatuurstudie, kan groot verandering te
wagte wees op die gebied van onderwyseropleiding in Suid-Afrika. Die regering,
nywerheid- en onderwysgemeenskap is besorg oor die toestand van
onderwyseropleiding en is by verskeie inisiatiewe betrokke om die gehalte daarvan te
verbeter. Dit werp nuwe lig op konsepte soos kwalifikasies, kurrikulumontwerp en
-ontwikkeling, die gehalte van onderrig, die evaluering van leerders se werk en die
beheer van nasionale kwalifikasies. Dit stel nuwe konsepte bekend soos
onderwysfases, gehalteversekering, toekenning van krediete en uitkomste.
Personeelontwikkeling is 'n strategie wat moontlik gebruik kan word om veranderinge
wat deur die toepassing van die NKR teweeggebring word, te implementeer. Faktore
wat hierdie ontwikkeling kan ondersteun of belemmer, word deur modelle
geïllustreer. Hierdie modelle word verduidelik en hul relevansie vir die navorsing
word geïnterpreteer. Metodes en strategieë vir personeelontwikkeling word genoem.
Die navorsingsmetodologie wat gebruik is om data te versamel, en die prosedure wat
gebruik is om die data te analiseer en te interpreteer, is beskryf. Die onderhoude dui
aan dat kolleges begin het om COTEP te implementeer. Die Departement van
Onderwys versprei inligting oor veranderinge, het werkswinkels gehou om die
algemene begrip te verbeter en het die implementering van veranderinge aan die kolleges oorgelaat. Onderwyseropleiers
ondervind probleme op die volgende gebiede:
• samestelling van eenheidstandaarde;
• gehalteversekering;
• bepaling van toelatingskriteria na aanleiding van die NKR; en
• die implementering van programme wat ontwikkel is.
Die response op die vraelyste het aangedui dat daar 'n gebrek aan duidelike beleid is
oor hoe om die personeel toe te rus met vaardighede om veranderinge te
implementeer. Alhoewel sommige personeellede bewus is van veranderinge, word
inligting nie aan almaloorgedra nie. Dosente is nie vertroud met die basiese aspekte
van die NKR nie, soos byvoorbeeld bande, vlakke, doelwitte, krediete, akkreditering
en gehalteversekering. Die onderlinge verband tussen COTEP en die NKR word nie
goed verstaan nie. Die geïdentifiseerde opleidingsbehoeftes is ook aangedui, en
gevolgtrekkings en aanbevelings word gemaak om die implementering meer effektief
te maak.

Secondary teachers' attitudes and beliefs toward staff development.Hawke, Laurie McEdwards. January 1989 (has links)
This descriptive study was undertaken for the primary purpose of identifying attitudes and beliefs of secondary teachers toward staff development. Participants in the study included the total population of teachers in two high schools in a southwestern school district. The objectives of the study were to identify the attitudes and beliefs of teachers toward staff development as an important part of their professional growth, and toward the organization, processes, and personnel involved in staff development. Also to be identified were the level of knowledge and interest teachers have of specific topics for staff development programs, and similarities/differences in teachers' attitudes based on school, department, number of years teaching experience, education level, participation in a career ladder program, and gender. The data was collected using a two-part, modified Likert scale questionnaire. The findings of the study suggest that the teachers from the school itself should plan staff development, including the content which should be based on the teachers' needs as determined from an open-ended questionnaire, and that the instructors should be teachers from the school or the school's administrators. Staff development programs should incorporate a variety of teaching methods, although lecture was rated as the least desirable single method by the teachers. Staff development should be regular and on-going, with quarterly sessions receiving the most agreement from the teachers. It should be held at the school itself, during released time, and job-related. The teachers agreed that staff development should be evaluated throughout the school year, by the teachers, assessing whether its objectives had been met. Participation should not be mandatory, but depend upon the content of the program and the needs of the individual. Incentives to participate should include the intrinsic value of improved teaching ability, salary increases, university credit, and increased student achievement. Finally, over seventy percent of the teachers agreed that staff development is an important part of their professional growth.

Teacher transformation: Creating texts and contexts in study groups.Saavedra, Elizabeth Rose Marie Martinez. January 1995 (has links)
This ethnographic study describes events and interactions that occurred between a group of teachers involved in a Teachers' Study Group in order to examine the process of transformation and essential transformative conditions. Data collected over a two year period includes field notes from participant observation, audio tape transcriptions, video-tapes, interviews, and written reflections by teachers and the researcher. An analysis of reflective dialogue and assessments by participants determined the transformations, the process of transformative learning that occurred for the participants and the formation of the collective group. Findings from an integrative analysis of discourse determined transformative events and conditions which were socially constructed and facilitated the transformation of individual teachers and the group as a whole. The paradigms underlying research and implementation models on teacher learning and change was examined and challenged. Two major directions were taken in this study. First, the transformation of an individual teacher as she engaged in inquiry through the cyclical progressions of the study group process is presented in a case study. This case study focuses on the construction of meanings and ideologies and the internalization of these meanings and their effects on learning, change and transformation for the teacher. Second, the process of transformation within the context of the study group is explored. This is presented as a case study which examines the transformation of the group showing how the participants constructed "transformative social events" whereby they could "live" and experience transformative learning through critical personal and collective reflection. The data suggests that transformative learning occurs through the process of face-to-face interaction between participants (teachers and researcher) in social contexts designed for the purpose of reflection, learning, and change. In order to understand the process of transformation, it is essential to examine the interrelationship between context and activities that participants use to constitute the culturally, socially, and historically organized social worlds they inhabit. From this view the relationship between context and product (ie. language) is considered a process that emerges and changes. Participants are situated within contexts which are capable of rapid and dynamic change as the event they are engaged in unfold.

Die aanvangsonderwyser as volwasse leerder04 November 2014 (has links)
M.Ed. (Didactics) / The beginning teacher doesn't start his teaching career as an educational expert. Although he is professionally qualified, his professional training doesn't fully equip him with all the required attributes necessary for an error-free start to his teaching career. The objective of this study is to scientifically acquire, by way of a literature study, information concerning individual shortcomings and lack of expertise attributable to the beginning teacher in practice. Attention has been given to the problems experienced by the beginning teacher when starting his teaching career in practice. His initial experience of the educational environment, as well as his development as person, educator, teacher and his position in the educational management situation are discussed. Due to the fact that he as an adult student exposes himself to an informal study situation to improve his teaching abilities, attention has been given to the specific qualities and problems the beginning teacher will be exposed to. The study also emphasised the importance of the support by more experienced teachers to the beginning teacher...

A Comparative Analysis of the Effects of Video-Based versus Live Presentation Staff Development on Teachers' Cognitive Learning and AttitudesCox, Alan R. (Alan Ray) 12 1900 (has links)
The problem of this study was the identification of effective and efficient means of providing quality staff development for reading instruction within a school-district setting. The study investigated the comparative effectiveness of two staff development delivery systems measured by 1) a cognitive test of a school district's reading program and 2) an affective measure of teacher attitudes toward staff development. The sample was drawn from the teacher population of a large urban school district. The 46 subjects were elementary school teachers in grades K-5 randomly divided into two groups: Group A (videotape with a trained on-site facilitator) and Group B (face-to-face live presenter). Participants in the study received training using "The Fort Worth Reading Program," a staff development program designed by the researcher. In addition to the presentation of content information, which is the central component, the program features small group discussions, off-line activities, and question and answer periods. Both groups received the same treatment with the following exception. A central component to the Group A training was the presentation of content information in a videotape format. Group B did not view the videotape, but received the same information via live presenter. Two instruments developed by the researcher were used in the study: 1) The Teacher Staff Development Questionnaire, a Likert-type survey to obtain teacher attitudes toward staff development, and 2) The Cognitive Test of Reading Knowledge, an instrument designed to measure cognitive objectives of the district's reading program. A multivariate analysis of covariance revealed no statistically significant differences between the groups. It was concluded that elementary classroom teachers, regardless of their attitudes toward staff development, learn content material equally well with either of the two delivery systems explored in this study. Specific suggestions and recommendations for further studies are addressed and discussed. Examples of the measurement instruments are included.
