摘要

农村教师通常难以参加城镇的传统专业发展项目。本文阐述了开发在线电子学习计划和论坛以支持农村英语教师能力建设的可能性和挑战。该研究是通过在印度尼西亚加里曼丹巴拉特省14个县中的两个县的四个区进行定性调查进行的。通过访谈和观察收集数据,采用一维描述、多维描述和解释三级分类系统进行分析。研究发现,政府法规、交通基础设施、互联网连接和教师准备都可以支持在线讨论论坛。支持该论坛的可能设计是在社交媒体组中创建一个异步讨论论坛。我们面临的挑战是找到有积极性和献身精神的教师来发起和领导论坛。基于讨论和结论,本研究建议在第一年由外部专家对领导者进行指导。当领导者准备好管理团队时,导师可以激励领导者自主管理团队,并可以与外部专家合作进行一些相关的专业发展计划。

Online discussion forums for rural teacher professional development
Rural teachers often have difficulties to participate conventionally in professional development programs in towns. This article explains the possibility and challenge of developing an online e-learning program and forum to support rural English teacher capacity building. The research was conducted through a qualitative survey in four districts in two of fourteen counties in Kalimantan Barat province, Indonesia. The data were collected through interview and observation and were analyzed using a three-level classification system that consisted of unidimensional description, multidimensional description, and explanation. The research found that the government regulations, the transportation infrastructure, the internet connection, and the teacher readiness could support the online discussion forum. The possible design to support the forum was an asynchronous discussion forum in social media groups. The challenge was finding motivated and committed teachers to initiate and lead the forums. Based on the discussion and conclusion, the research recommends that external experts mentor the leaders in the first year. When the leaders are ready to manage the groups, the mentor can motivate the leaders to manage the groups autonomously and may collaborate with the external experts to conduct some relevant professional development programs.
