This study is aimed at exploring the professional ¡§license¡¨ system of primary and secondary school teachers in our country. The main study method adopted in the study is document analysis, primary and secondary school teachers¡¦ professional ¡§license¡¨ system and teachers appointment system are taken as research subject, with additional related administrative rules for accessory explanation; comparative method is also adopted in this study to make a comparison of the accreditation system of primary and secondary school teachers and other domestic professions as well as that of primary and secondary school teachers in U.S.A. The result of teacher professional accreditation system explored in this study is arranged, analyzed and concluded after related studies performed. It¡¦s discovered after the analysis and comparison of documents: 1.There¡¦s distinction lies among certificate, practice license and ¡§license,¡¨ and the said ¡§license¡¨ is different from that of doctor, psychologist, social worker, lawyer and accountant. 2.The government persuades teachers to join the professional ¡§license¡¨ system is meant to solve the problems of wandering and unqualified teachers principally. 3.To perform teacher professional ¡§license¡¨ system, the advantage is complied with social public expectation, but the disadvantage is that it has become the tool for government to regulate and instruct teachers. Suggestions for follow-up researchers: Expect that the follow-up researchers would perform further study and dissertation on the roles and function played by both government and teacher professional organization in promoting primary and secondary school teachers¡¦ professional ¡§license¡¨ system upon the discussion of it in our country, to make the said system more matured and completed and administer to teacher profession promotion.

The purposes of this study were, first, to determine the degree and direction of relationships between scores on The National Teacher Examinations and certain variables for the two hundred and forty-nine secondary teacher education majors included in this study.

Educators in general are not likely to have an accurate understanding of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), including its etiology, how it presents, or how it is treated. Teachers also report lower satisfaction with students who have ADHD, including frustration with classroom experiences. Additionally, teachers express a desire to learn more about ADHD and how to manage related behaviors in their classrooms. Students with ADHD report wishing their teachers liked them more and understood that they aren't trying to be difficult. Accurate knowledge of ADHD has been shown to improve teacher efficacy. The current research study is adapted from Latouche and Gascoigne's study (2019) in which primary school teachers were provided with ADHD training. Teachers' knowledge of ADHD and their efficacy was measured by survey before and after the training. Results showed that both efficacy and ADHD knowledge increased. This conceptual replication pre-post study determined how relevant ADHD training was for teachers in the author's region: the Mountain West region of the United States. It examined teacher knowledge and efficacy before and after ADHD training in two schools, creating two pre-test/post-test designs. Additionally, the current study's adaptation involved secondary teachers (Grades 7-9) rather than primary school teachers. Results were used to determine if there was a connection between ADHD knowledge and teacher efficacy. Surveys also included questions to determine social validity of the ADHD training. Results showed that ADHD training in the form of a workshop increased teacher efficacy with a small effect size, significantly increased teacher knowledge about ADHD, increased positive attitudes about ADHD, decreased negative attitudes about ADHD, and was a socially valid form of learning about ADHD.

Assessment data continues to show middle and high school students struggling with literacy. As literacy is intricate to every course at the secondary level, students who struggle with reading and writing struggle across the curriculum. While this glaring issue persists, many teachers take few courses to train them to implement the instructional strategies needed to help students overcome deficits and succeed in the disciplinary coursework of secondary school. The goals of the project were to decide which content should be included in a required program of study for secondary education pre-service teachers to increase capacity and improve classroom readiness and identify influencing factors in instructional adjustments and literacy coursework that contribute to secondary preservice /in-service teacher success. Research studies show explicit instruction instruction in vocabulary, comprehension, and writing across the curriculum have a positive effect on student achievement in literacy. Research also showed that pre-service teachers trained in literacy instructional strategies and engaged in quality field experience are more prepared to instruct students successfully. Based on research, an updated secondary education program of study was created to strengthen literacy instructional capacity through targeted coursework and teacher residency. The current degree program was audited to find solutions. Courses strong training pre-service teachers in comprehension, vocabulary, and writing instruction were added to the program of study. The updated coursework was set in a progression to improve alignment of instructional strategies taught within the program. The program’s field experience component was expanded from a semester of required internship to a full academic year of teacher residency through a new teacher residency program. Updated syllabi, programs of study, course progression, and the teacher residency program were converted into the required documentation to request for a new degree program through Mississippi State University.

abstract: In this study, the Arizona State University Mathematics and Science Teaching Fellows 2010 program was analyzed qualitatively from start to finish to determine the impact of the research experience on teachers in the classroom. The sample for the study was the 2010 cohort of eight high school science teachers. Erickson's (1986) interpretive, participant observational fieldwork method was used to report data by means of detailed descriptions of the research experience and classroom implementation. Data was collected from teacher documents, interviews, and observations. The findings revealed various factors that were responsible for an ineffective implementation of the research experience in the classroom such as research experience, curriculum support, availability of resources, and school curriculum. Implications and recommendations for future programs are discussed in the study. / Dissertation/Thesis / Ph.D. Curriculum and Instruction 2012

This qualitative, explorative, descriptive and contextual study was aimed at exploring and describing secondary teachers’ experiences in dealing with adolescent learners displaying mental distress in Gaborone. Moreover, recommendations were proposed for the support needed by secondary teachers who interact with adolescents learners in order to curb mental distress in schools. The sampling method that was used to identify 21 secondary school teachers who participated in this study was purposive. Focus group discussions, as well as field notes, were used to collect data, which were analysed using a thematic analysis. An array of factors that could lead to delays in identifying adolescent learners with mental distress, such as large student numbers and insufficient resources to meet their needs, learners showing signs of mental distress not being taken seriously, lack of parental involvement, relegating parental duties and lack of trust were revealed by the findings. The researcher observed that approaches to support, such as policy guides, parental involvement, peer education and life skills training were best suited to address mental distress in schools as noted by participants. The participants shared the various ways they employed to deal with mental distress in adolescent learners, and suggested strategies that they, together with parents and other stakeholders, could engage in to address these factors. The identified strategies provided a contextual way of establishing recommendations to overcome adolescent mental distress. These included, but were not limitted to, the engagement by parents in mental health problems in schools, as well as policy reviews, and restructuring the referral system. / Health Studies / M. P.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Carlos Eduardo Pereira.pdf: 328365 bytes, checksum: 547041c61bbd03fca509a28b234f3b60 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2008-02-25 / Secretaria da Educação do Estado de São Paulo / The aim of this study is to analyze researches about the secondary teacher that were diffused by the periodical named Pesquisa e Planejamento, produced by the Regional Center of Research on Education of Sao Paulo (CRPE/SP) between 1958 and 1975. It congregates the results of researches about education that were accomplished by researchers that composed the Center staff (The CRPE/SP belongs to the Brazilian Center of Research on Education CBPE, which is connected to INEP and MEC).By proposing this type of analysis, we intend to check how the secondary teacher is represented on the published articles, trying to apprehend not only the themes related to the teaching profession itself in the state of Sao Paulo, but also some conceptions about the secondary teaching profession. Preliminarily, nine articles published between 1958 and 1975 were selected. The articles we examined on this study showed that the themes the CRPE/SP researchers selected to approach the situation of the secondary teachers at Pesquisa e Planejamento, during the 60 s, discussed the precarious conditions of work, the teaching segment qualification and the increase on the participation of women. During the 70 s, the emphasis is on the technical aspects of the teaching profession and the point of view of the teachers about the changes that were happening on the Brazilian educational system / Esta pesquisa propõe-se a analisar o professor secundário nas pesquisas veiculadas pelo periódico Pesquisa e Planejamento, produzido pelo Centro Regional de Pesquisas Educacionais de São Paulo (CRPE/SP) entre 1958 e 1975. Esta publicação reúne os resultados das pesquisas realizadas sobre educação pelos pesquisadores que compunham o quadro do CRPE/SP, instituição ligada ao Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas Educacionais (CBPE) que, por sua vez, era vinculado ao INEP e ao MEC. Ao propor esse tipo de análise, pretende-se verificar como o professor secundário aparece representado nos artigos publicados pelo periódico, numa tentativa de apreender não só os temas relativos ao exercício da profissão no estado de São Paulo tratados pelos pesquisadores do CRPE/SP, mas também as concepções sobre o magistério secundário veiculadas pela publicação. Para tanto, foram selecionados preliminarmente nove artigos publicados no periódico entre os anos de 1958 e 1975 que tratam diretamente da questão aqui apontada. Os artigos examinados neste estudo demonstraram que os temas selecionados pelos pesquisadores do CRPE/SP para tratar da situação do professor secundário na Revista Pesquisa e Planejamento, nos anos 1960, diziam respeito, sobretudo, à precariedade das condições de trabalho, à qualificação desse segmento da categoria e ao aumento da participação das mulheres em sua composição, ao passo que, nos anos 1970, a ênfase nos aspectos técnicos do exercício da profissão e na forma como as mudanças pelas quais passava o sistema educacional brasileiro estavam sendo vistas pelos docentes caracterizou a produção do periódico
