Abstract

Professional development is a continuous process of learning to empower professional competency and enable teachers to be strong and competent in their professional career. The study critically explores the struggles and professional activities of basic level English teachers in professional development. Critical narrative inquiry has been used in relation to long lived experiences of a participant with a semi – structured telephonic interview. The participant narrates three distinct phases of experiences in teaching profession. The result revealed that participant was innately interested in teaching profession before involvement. But the situated school system discouraged his ideology of teaching profession even he determined to continue his profession involving in different seminars, workshop and study. However, the study further suggests that there is lack of innovating teaching profession from critical perspectives focusing the interactive and transformative environment in classroom. Therefore, the basic level teachers need to re- examine and re – construct the professional activities to address the need, interest and level of learners. Similarly, the study contributes to apply language teaching activities in terms of transformative mood rather than structured model of teaching empowering teachers as an agency.
基础英语教师的专业认同与奋斗:一种批判性的叙事探究
专业发展是一个不断学习的过程,以增强专业能力,使教师在职业生涯中变得强大和胜任。本研究批判性地探讨了初级英语教师在专业发展中的奋斗和专业活动。批判性叙事调查已被用于与参与者的半结构化电话采访的长期经历有关。参与者叙述了教学生涯中三个不同阶段的经历。结果显示,被试在参与前就对教学职业产生了天生的兴趣。但当地的学校制度阻碍了他的教学理念,即使他决心继续他的职业,包括各种研讨会,讲习班和学习。然而,该研究进一步表明,缺乏从批判的角度来创新教学专业,关注课堂的互动和变革环境。因此,基层教师需要重新审视和重构专业活动,以满足学习者的需求、兴趣和水平。同样,本研究也有助于将语言教学活动应用于变革性情绪,而不是结构化的教学模式,即赋予教师作为中介的权利。
