Teachers Have Education Theory And Practice Of Comparative Study

The 21st century is an era of life-long learning. Life-long learning will become a choice for life style of people. Based on life-long learning idea, teacher professional development should be a dynamic and continuous process through whole teachers' career. Teacher education that assumes the responsibility of teacher preparing and training should be an integrative process including three continuous phases, pre-service education, inductive education and in-service training.Induction period is a key phase in teacher professional development process. Whether beginning teachers successfully realize the transformation from student of teaching to eligible teacher in inductive period will influence not only their occupational orientation and permanence, but also their professional development pattern in whole career, which will determine what teachers are like in the future. Large numbers of studies indicate that beginning teachers indeed encounter more difficult and complex problems than teachers in other periods. Therefore, it is more important to provide inductive education for beginning teachers based on their professional development need.After the educator in Great Britain, James Porter, advanced a famous Theory of Three Phases of Teacher Education in 1971,which took the lead in introducing inductive education to teacher education system, many developed countries in Europe and America has began to implement and research on teachers' inductive education.This thesis makes a comparative study of representational theory of teachers' inductive education and practice of Japan, America and Great Britain, which implement teachers' inductive education early, and have prefect systems as well as remarkable effect. Based on the comparative study above, the thesis concerns seriously about teachers' inductiveeducation in our country.The thesis consists of eight chapters following a rigorous consecution:Chapter I . Introduction. This thesis' significance and researching method are introduced in this part, and definitions for several important conceptions in this thesis are made.chapter II .Induction period: the key phase in teacher professional development process. Based on the probe into the theory of teacher professional development phases, the important status and effect of induction period in teacher professional development process are analyzed in this part.ChapterIII.The characteristics of beginning teachers' professional development. In this part, the characteristics of beginning teachers' professional development are analyzed from such aspects as influential factors, growth experience, professional structure, problems and difficulties, career burnout, professional development need and so on.ChapterIV.

Teachers' inductive education theories are compared in this part from the aspects as follows: conception, objective, component, evaluation, form, etc.Chapter V. Mentoring: a typical form of teachers' inductive education. Mentoring that is adopted frequently in teachers' inductive education is deeply analyzed in this part.ChapterVI. The particularity of teachers' inductive education: a longitudinal and transverse comparison. The particularity of teachers' inductive education is illustrated through a longitudinal comparison between inductive education and pre-service and in-service education, and a transverse comparison between inductive education of teachers and that of other professions.ChapterVII.A comparative study of teachers' inductive education practice is made. The practices of teachers' inductive education in Japan,America and Great Britain are compared, and the commonness and individuality, success and failure of teachers' inductive education practices in these countries are also analyzedChapterVIII. Rational consideration of teachers" inductive education in our country is given. The actuality and issues of teachers' inductive education in our country are reviewed, the theory framework is constructed, and several strategies to streng...
