The apprenticeship of observation in career contexts: a typology for the role of modeling in teachers’ career paths     

Carol R. Rinke  Lynnette Mawhinney  Gloria Park 《Teachers and Teaching》2013,19(1):92-107

This article extends the literature on teachers’ career paths by attending to the experiences of educators when they were students in secondary classrooms. Grounded in the perspective that biography is central to teaching, we investigate undergraduate pre-service teachers’ educational experiences, views on teaching and learning, and professional plans. We draw upon life history interviews with 40 prospective teachers at three institutions across Pennsylvania, USA. We find that past educational experiences are intricately connected with career choice, intended professional path, and pedagogical focus. This paper identifies and discusses three forms of modeling – disciplinary, mentoring, and empowering – which influence pre-service teachers in powerful and enduring ways. These forms of modeling expand our understanding of teachers’ career intentions and apply the apprenticeship of observation to planned career paths.  相似文献

‘Why are we an ignored group?’ Mainstream educational experiences and current life satisfaction of adults on the autism spectrum from an online survey     

Sarah Parsons 《International Journal of Inclusive Education》2013,17(4):397-421

Adults on the autism spectrum are significantly under-represented in research on educational interventions and support, such that little is known about their views and experiences of schooling and how this prepared them for adult life. In addition, ‘good outcomes’ in adult life are often judged according to normative assumptions and tend not to include the views of adults on the autism spectrum directly. This study reports the findings from an online survey that sought the views of adults on the autism spectrum about their current life satisfaction as well as their views about school. Fifty-five respondents, most of whom attended mainstream schools and were diagnosed later in life, completed the survey. Respondents were least satisfied with their current employment situation and most satisfied with personal relationships and friendships. More than half of the group said they had friends that they know or meet on the Internet. Overall, there was a significant positive correlation between experiences at school and ratings of current life satisfaction, with the younger respondents being generally more positive about the support they had received. There was substantial individual variation in responses also, demonstrating the importance of understanding and respecting personal views, circumstances and aspirations.  相似文献   

论教学实践感是教师个人专业化成长的基石     

李本东  徐学福 《黔南民族师范学院学报》2013,(5):1-7

在感觉态度上的悖论、感觉功能论争的启示下,重新认识人的感觉,认为感觉是我们实践性生存的先天本原形态.进而提出,教学实践感在教师对教学实践活动的感知过程中生成,是教师现实的职业化生存形态,是教师职业化生存本质的丰富性的现实展开,是教学实践与教学理论相互关联的必由中介,更是教师个人专业化成长的基石.教师教育应该重视教学实践感并将之纳入教师教育课程,以弥补目前教师教育课程偏于理性化之失.  相似文献
