Tóm tắt : | 1)Novice teachers’ participation in professional development in their community of practice: - All participants were well aware of the importance of professional development to their professional advancement. They admitted that when beginning their first years of teaching, they faced several problems regarding knowledge and teaching skills. As a results, there existed various fields that they need to improve. - Professional development activities within participants’ community of practice were remarkably limited in terms of forms, frequency and quality. Most of them failed to meet teachers’ needs and expectation. - Among those activities, peer-observations and exchanges of problems and ideas within small interest groups in their community of practice appeared to be more professionally beneficial to them as novice teachers. - Novice teachers also reported that self-initiated professional development activities such as self-study at home or practice with friends were more effective to them. 2)Motivating factors behind their participation - The findings demonstrated that participants’ perceptions of professional development, their students’ proficiency level and collegial support were the most motivating factors to the novice teachers’ participation in improving their profession within their community of practice. - Of all those discovered factors, students’ proficiency level is considered as the most influential factors to the participation of novice teachers in professional development. - Besides, interviewees’ community of practice also organized activities and offered incentive policies to encourage them to improve their teaching. 3)Challenges novice teachers encountered in participating in professional development activities in their community of practice. -By contrast, time constraints, low salaries and inefficient quality of professional development activities seemed to be the demotivating factors to the participation of novice teachers. The greatest challenge was the lack of diversity regarding the types of professional development activities novice teachers could participate within their community of practice. The quality of those available activities failed to meet their expectations. In addition, extra work for higher incomes and workloads also inhibited them from spending time for self-study or self-improvement. -The poor quality of professional development activities within teachers’ community of practice appeared to be the most inhibiting factors demotivating novice teachers to take part in professional development. |
