Book Teacher Induction and Mentoring

Download or read book Teacher Induction and Mentoring written by Juanjo Mena and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws together various theoretical and research-based perspectives to examine the institutionalization of mentoring processes for beginning teachers. Teacher induction, defined as the guidance provided to new teachers, is increasingly gaining traction as a key stage in promoting quality education. Major efforts have been put into reducing transitional challenges from being a student teacher to a practicing teacher; optimizing professional relationships and socialization into school dynamics; and increasing teacher retention. Mentoring has been proven to add benefits in assisting beginning teachers during the early years of their teaching career, because it provides the required knowledge and skills to face uncertain school scenarios and the complexities of practice. However, teacher induction programs are not part of regular instruction in many countries. The lack of teacher training during the induction phase might result in lower levels of commitment, professional isolation, or even attrition. This book calls for more concrete mentoring processes for early career teachers, and questions how this can be put into practice.

Download or read book Past Present and Future Research on Teacher Induction written by Jian Wang and published by R&L Education. This book was released on 2010-07-16 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology on teacher induction research is intended for researchers, policy makers, and practitioners in the field of teacher induction both nationally and internationally. This book is the final and major project of the Association of Teacher Educators' (ATE) Commission on Teacher Induction and Mentoring. Its importance is derived from three sources: (1) careful conceptualization of teacher induction from historical, methodological, and international perspectives; (2) systematic reviews of research literature relevant to various aspects of teacher induction including its social, cultural, and political contexts, program components and forms, and the range of its effects; (3) substantial empirical studies on the important issues of teacher induction with different kinds of methodologies that exemplify future directions and approaches to the research in teacher induction. The content of the book has direct implications for ATE's membership since part of the ATE mission is to provide opportunities for personal and professional growth of the Association membership whether members are researchers, policy makers, or practitioners in teacher learning and/or teacher induction.

Download or read book Keeping New Teachers written by Kapadia and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Induction has become an increasingly popular strategy for school districts across the country that seek solutions for high attrition rates among teachers who are new to the profession. In Illinois public schools, the attrition rate among new teachers can be as high as 40 percent after only five years on the job. Such turnover levels are costly for school districts and ultimately can erode student achievement. Chicago has embraced induction as a means for retaining good teachers. In addition to the Chicago Public Schools' (CPS) "Guidance, Orientation, Leadership, Development, Empowering New Teachers" (GOLDEN ) Teachers Program, induction programs with various models and degrees of teacher contact are in operation in different regions of the city and among diverse populations of novice teachers. To probe the effects of teacher induction, the Consortium on Chicago School Research (CCSR) included a new battery of questions designed specifically for new teachers on its spring 2005 surveys of CPS elementary and high school teachers. This first look at the influences of teacher induction uses responses from these surveys to evaluate the effects of participating in induction activities on teachers' reports of the quality of their teaching experience, whether they intend to continue teaching, and whether they plan to remain in the same school. Key findings from this study are: (1) In general, novice teachers are positive about their teaching experience; (2) Many individual, classroom, and school factors, most particularly the number of students with behavioral problems, are strongly associated with novices' plans to continue teaching; (3) A welcoming faculty that assists new teachers and strength of school leadership are the two school-level factors that have the greatest influence on novices' reports of good teaching experiences and intentions to continue teaching; (4) Reports about the quality and perceived helpfulness of various induction activities, such as mentoring and supports, are highly predictive of novices reporting a good teaching experience and planning to continue teaching, regardless of where these activities originate; (5) Intensive contextual induction can help novice teachers have good early teaching experiences that encourage them to continue in the profession; and (6) For new CPS teachers, participating in an induction program alone does not influence their plans to continue teaching or guarantee they receive these supports. Across the nation, school systems like Chicago's are taking steps to support their novice teachers. Knowing who these teachers are and the context in which they work will help organizers to create induction programs that better deliver mentoring and other supports, which will enable this and future generations of teachers to have a good experience, continue in the profession, and stay in the same school. Given the vital role that principals and school faculties can play in helping new teachers remain in CPS, the report concludes that a broader definition of induction programming to include school-based initiatives is required. The authors advocate that learning how to keep new teachers is only the first step for large urban districts where a range of factors makes retention a high priority and recommend study of how intensive contextual induction can be designed to improve new teacher practice and, ultimately, the academic achievement of Chicago's children. The following are appended: (1) Variables Used in Analyses; (2) Rasch Analysis; (3) Models Used in this Report; (4) Summary of Logistic Regression Analyses; and (5) Summary of HLM Analyses for Chapter 3.

Book Examining the Teacher Induction Process in Contemporary Education Systems

This book was released on 2018-08-10 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before today’s teachers are ready to instruct the intellectual leaders of tomorrow, they must first be trained themselves. Every teacher experiences an induction process that can make their early years as an educator nerve-racking. Focusing on this period of time in a teacher’s career can lead to greater teacher retention and success. Examining the Teacher Induction Process in Contemporary Education Systems addresses the construct of teacher induction through theoretical and empirical research. It also provides an in-depth conceptualization of being a novice teacher through micro-political realities of teaching in different geographical and cultural regions. While highlighting topics including adaptation challenges, mentor-mentee interaction, and teacher retention, this book is ideally designed for school administrators, early career teachers, educational researchers, educational professionals, and academicians seeking current research on early career educator adaptation and practices.
