Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Handbook of Teacher Quality and Policy is a comprehensive resource that examines how teacher quality is conceptualized, negotiated, and contested, and teacher policies are developed and implemented by global, national, and local policy actors. Edited by two of the leading comparative authorities in the field, it draws on the research and contributions of scholars from across the globe to explore five central questions: How has teacher quality been conceptualized from various disciplinary and theoretical perspectives? How are global and transnational policy actors and networks influencing teacher policies and practices? What are the perspectives and experiences of teachers in local policy contexts? What do comparative research studies tell us about teachers and how their work and policy contexts influence their teaching? How have various countries implemented policies aimed at improving teacher quality and how have these policies influenced teachers and students? The international contributors represent a wide variety of scholars who identify global dynamics influencing policy discourses on teacher quality, and examine national and local teaching and policy environments influencing teacher policy development and implementation in various countries. Divided into five sections, the book brings together the latest conceptual and empirical studies on teacher quality and teacher policies to inform future policy directions for recruiting, educating, and supporting the teaching profession.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Summary The text, The International Teacher, is demonstrating that it takes more than a name to produce and identify an International Teacher. The process involves the instrumentality of international organizations such as the United Nations Educational and Scientific Organisation(UNESCO), the Institute of International Education (IIE), Education International (EI), the committed will of the teacher by acquiring higher education, hard work and special financial investments. In the survey done with foreign teachers, the data have shown that they are in agreement with the establishment of an international programme-institution that would help teachers acquire higher levels of training and certification. However, while every teacher would not participate for various reasons, the majority would for personal advancement and for the development of education globally. The text also states that teaching is a complex process and requires quality teachers to make it effective and achieve its objectives. Therefore, the teacher should be fairly treated and rewarded so that he can appreciate the offerings of the profession especially at retirement. It concludes by listing the different programmes now in existence that provide some aspects of international training through exchange activities and recommends the names of the most influential organisations. Author Biography Arthur S. Comrie has worked in education and training for forty years as classroom teacher, Co-operative Education Specialist and Principal of All-Age Schools. He taught students at different age levels, kindergarten to adult, and did written work on developmental issues for local newspapers. Currently, he is searching for educational instruments that are applicable to the development of World-Class Standard of Education. He will seek to have them administered according to their relevance at local, national and international levels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scenario One Imagine a teacher walking into a classroom. The students stood up to greet the teacher on his or her entrance through the door, and remained standing until they were beckoned to sit down. The students then sat down, with their eyes fixed on the teacher, waiting for instructions on what to do next. The teacher was in absolute control, knew exactly what was going on, and what to expect from the students. On their part, the students knew exactly what to expect from the teacher; standing up to greet the teacher on his or her entrance into the classroom was normal. In fact, it was cultural. They had therefore not done anything extraordinary. The teacher proceeded to have a verygood class period. Nothing different was expected; this was a normal day. Scenario Two Imagine the same teacher, with the same expectations as in Scenario One, walking into a different classroom. The students did not stand up to greet him or her; they did not know about such a tradition, nor was it a part of their culture. In fact, some were standing and chatting with friends as he or she entered the classroom.

Download or read book International Schools, Teaching and Governance written by Carmen Blyth and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-26 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how injustice based on social positioning is performed within the context of international schools. Drawing on the lived experiences of an international school teacher, it proposes and explores the notion that teachers, in being constituted and positioned as subordinate within the hierarchy that is the international school, leads to their being wronged on three counts: epistemically for being wrongfully mistrusted; ethically for being wrongfully excluded; and ontologically for being wrongfully positioned as a lesser human being. The book addresses the dearth of research currently available on conflict in international schools and how conflict between teachers and administrators is dealt with in and by such institutions. It will be valuable reading for students and teachers of education and sociology, and those interested in the workings of international schools.

The second edition is divided into two parts: teaching and teacher education. Part one contains eight sections: the nature and characteristics of teachers, theories and models of teaching, instructional programs and strategies, teaching skills and techniques, school and classroom factors, students and the teaching-learning process, teaching for specific objectives, and the study of teaching. Part two contains three sections: concepts and issues in teacher education, generic initial teacher education, and continuing teacher education.

This book was released on 2020-10-09 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regardless of the discipline or country, creating quality education is multifaceted. At the center of any schooling practice are the educators, their schools, and the teacher education programs that license them. As the schools and faculties of education strive to provide the best practices to pre-service or in-service teachers, it becomes more critical to increase the quality of teacher education via various means to keep up with the demands of schooling in the 21st century. Interdisciplinary Approaches Toward Enhancing Teacher Education provides an overview of how innovation and research experience can enhance teacher education programs with a focus on competencies, skills, and strategies future teachers will need to cope with while teaching students’ learning with diversity and facing linguistic, social, and environmental challenges. The book particularly investigates the potentiality of educational technology, innovative techniques, and digital storytelling to enhance education and bilingualism in intercultural contexts and multilingual settings. Covering topics that include performance assessment, teacher training, and professional development, and including many practical and diverse examples, this book is intended for TESOL, second or foreign language learning, and CUL programs and teacher-training institutions, as well as teachers, researchers, academicians, and students in interdisciplinary areas that include science, history, geography, language learning, bilingualism, intercultural competencies, classroom interaction, gamification, and educational technology.

This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research surrounding teacher quality and teacher effectiveness has continued to grow and become even more prominent as teaching has become more professionalized globally and countries have invested more comprehensively in teacher education, certification, and professional development. To better understand teacher effectiveness, it is important to have a global viewpoint to truly understand how beliefs and practices vary in each country and can lead to different characterizations of what makes an effective teacher. This includes both cross-cultural commonalities and unique differences in conceptualization of teacher effectiveness and practices. With this comprehensive, international understanding of teacher effectiveness, a better understanding of best practices, teacher models, philosophies, and more will be developed. International Beliefs and Practices That Characterize Teacher Effectiveness identifies, shares, and explores the predominant conceptual understandings of beliefs and practices that characterize effective teachers in different countries. This book provides international and cross-cultural perspectives on teacher effectiveness and examines the prominent philosophies of teaching and pedagogical practices that characterize teachers in selected countries. Each chapter includes a background, such as history and undergirding philosophy within each country, effective teacher models, prominent applications of teacher effectiveness practices, and special or unique features of teaching in the specific countries mentioned. This book is essential for practicing educators in various countries, teacher educators, faculty, and students within schools and colleges, researchers in international comparative studies, organizations engaged in international education, and administrators, practitioners, and academicians interested in how teacher effectiveness is characterized in different countries and regions across the world.

Download or read book Travel and Teach the World written by Philip Gill and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-01-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine yourself heading to the airport, knowing that you're jumping head first into the adventure of your life. You're traveling abroad, not for vacation but to live. In a few days, you'll have settled into your new apartment, and you'll meet your students. You're in for the amazing experience of teaching at an international school, and you don't even need to know a foreign language. International teaching jobs present great opportunities for teachers to expand their horizons, see the world, and experience teaching and everyday life in a manner that many can only imagine. But to a locally based teacher, international teaching jobs can also seem elusive. For most teachers, international teaching jobs are not familiar. International vacations are one thing, but a job search that will likely result in the signing of a contract to move abroad and teach in a new environment presents a number of challenges. However, international teaching jobs provide excellent opportunities for teachers who are willing and able to take this significant step. Who becomes an international teacher, and why is it becoming an increasingly attractive opportunity? What do international schools look for when they recruit teachers? How does one go about transitioning from a locally based teacher to an international one? While schools in the English speaking world are making cutbacks, domestic teaching positions have become increasingly difficult to find. Hiring freezes are in place and teacher lay-offs are on the rise. In addition to this, teacher salaries have not kept pace with inflation in recent years, and some teachers have even had their pay cut. And things are not looking any better in the near term. In the English speaking world, the competition is stiff for teachers who are looking for jobs. Fortunately this is not the case for international teaching jobs where there is still a buyer's market, and the demand for teachers at international schools is steadily increasing. Currently there are over 250,000 teachers employed worldwide by international schools. Every year thousands of teachers are hired through job fairs, through Skype interviews and through other means. International Schools that use an English Language curriculum are reaching record enrollments all over the world. Despite the global economic downturn this trend looks set to continue. It is likely that within ten years, the number of international schools around the world will double. This naturally makes the market for international teaching jobs more and more attractive and makes this an ideal time to begin taking the steps that will result in an international teaching job for you. While school districts in the English speaking world are cutting back, and teacher positions are more difficult than ever to obtain, international teaching jobs are becoming more attractive than ever to teaching candidates. Around the world, more parents than ever are recognizing the benefits of an international education and sending their children to English language international schools to give them early exposure to English to get them an advantage in the global economy that they'll grow up into. In many countries fluency in the English language is considered a prerequisite to success, as it opens up a tremendous number of opportunities that would not otherwise be available. This attitude is fueling the growth of the market for international teaching jobs and creating great opportunities for teachers. Don't miss out on this opportunity of a lifetime.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "United States public schools have recently begun hiring international teachers for science and mathematics classes across the country. The purpose of this study is to shed light to the practice of international science and math teachers in the K-12 institutions in the United States. This study aims to offer suggestions to administrators who are currently working with international teachers, or planning to hire international teachers. It also aims to help policy makers at the state and district levels to understand the specific issues related to the employment of international teachers. These include legal and policy matters such as teaching certification requirements, pre-adjustment (training) programs for international teachers and different diversity policies in US school districts. International teachers might benefit from this study by comparing their own experiences with the ones related in the report, and find suggestions of successful strategies they may choose to incorporate in their own teachings. This study is based on a case study of seven international teachers from India, China, Turkey and Nigeria. In addition to the teacher participants, school administrators were also interviewed and the data from these responses is comparatively examined.
