Teacher As A Person

Teacher is a person who has the individual personality and capacity to develop himself. Teacher Development should be achieved by teacher himself in certain educational settings. Only based on the understandings of the educational settings and the research responding to the influence from outside factors can we afford the factual evidence and logical premise for studying the effect caused by law of education development.The study adopts newly-developed qualitative research in the sociology science as its research method. The object of the research is the teachers of the M primary school in Cheng Du city. The period of collecting materials is from August, 2004 to April, 2005. I collected these materials through the normal methods in the qualitative research either on the spot or with the aid of the advanced Internet. These methods include observation, interview, questionaire, objects collection and etc.This study is from the angel of teachers' innate characteristics. People exist and develop in the relationships with other objects and other people, so do teachers. Teachers exist in the school and school is the settings where teachers develop. The campus relationships are the cooperative relationships which are consciously built by teachers, students, parents, school administrators and other related people. Teacher, as a person, develops his self-developing consciousness and capacity in the campus relationships, which is the basic thinking method for me to make study on teacher development.This study does the elaboration of teacher development from six sides: teachers' self-recognition, the intergrowth between teachers and students, traveling together with colleagues, school administrators' guiding, subtle influence of the school culture, examination from the community, and shows how teachers grow in the M primary school.
