Reflectivity And Cultivating Student Learning

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Many educator preparation programs have a teacher reflection component and/or model; however, the current available literature provides little information regarding reflection’s impact on teacher performance and student learning. Reflectivity and Cultivating Student Learning includes theory, research, and practice appropriate for teacher educators, teacher candidates, classroom teachers, school administrators, and educational researchers. This text will be useful for teacher education programs, graduate programs in education, and professional development for educators. The goal of this book is to substantiate the knowledge, skills, and dispositions that have been used to establish teacher reflectivity as a foundation of teacher education and to advance the acquisition, applications, and appreciation of teacher reflectivity as a critical aspect of professional growth and development. Pultorak and his contributors enrich the literature and provide greater clarity regarding reflectivity’s impact on student learning in our global society.

Reflection Change And Reconstruction In The Context Of Educational Reform And Innovation In China

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

This book delivers a state-of-the-art survey of the issues and approaches in contemporary English as a foreign language (EFL) teacher education. It examines the professional development of the teachers who taught English as a foreign language and engaged in a teacher preparation programme of reflective teaching at a university in China. Situated in the context of the reforms of English language teaching and teacher education, this book focuses on the theme of how, if at all, reflective teaching contributes to Chinese university EFL teachers’ development in thinking about English language teaching and in their own classroom practice. To date, the study of English as a foreign language teacher education and professional development mainly focused on the teaching skills and pedagogical knowledge of teachers. However, this book approaches English language teacher education from a different perspective, through an empirical exploration of the teachers’ professional development in their thinking, beliefs, values, understandings of teaching, awareness of students, and their classroom practice while engaged with reflective teaching practice at the group level and the individual level respectively. Adopting an interpretivist and constructivist epistemological paradigm, and drawing on key aspects of reflective teaching theory, the book investigates how the novice, developing, and experienced teachers differed in their views about reflective practice; how the teachers’ thinking about English language teaching transformed; how the teachers’ performance in EFL classroom practice developed; and how the teachers dealt with the changes during the period of the teacher education programme. In addition, the book provides examples of research into the ways that individuals integrate multiple levels of reflection, accommodate different types of reflection, and make them interact with each other mutually and inseparably by using a more comprehensive and multidimensional reflective teaching model. Thus the book helps to better understand teachers’ trajectory of professional growth and is a new and unique resource for exploring effective ways of language teacher education for teachers, teacher educators, and educational researchers alike.

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) and bilingual education teachers face many challenges, including teaching in multilingual classrooms, addressing diverse learning needs, and engaging families and communities. These difficulties can make it challenging for new teachers to feel supported and to develop the skills needed to provide high-quality instruction to English Learners (ELs). The field also lacks professional development opportunities, creating a sense of isolation. Mentoring and Reflective Teachers in ESOL and Bilingual Education is a practical solution to these challenges. The book draws on expert educators' experiences to offer strategies and best practices that can be used to support new ESOL teachers' professional development. The book emphasizes the importance of collaboration, reflective practice, and ongoing professional development, offering concrete examples of how these practices can be implemented in real-world contexts. This comprehensive guide covers various professional activities that can help improve classroom instruction for ELs and encourage family and community involvement. Topics include mentoring in ESOL teacher education, professional development, and support for ESOL teachers, guided practice and professional growth of teachers of culturally and linguistically diverse learners, collaborative networks of ESOL teachers, building a community of reflective practice, and best practices in ESOL education. With this book, ESOL and bilingual education teachers can gain the support they need to provide high-quality instruction to ELs and build strong relationships with families and communities.
