6. What is the difference between In-service teacher training and continuing
professional development CPD ? In-service teacher training and continuing professional development CPD .In- service teacher training INSET , seen within a model of continuing professional development CPD)for teachers, has a powerful role to play in the success of primary English language teaching worldwide. This is particularly true for primary class teachers who may have no experience of language teaching but who are expected to begin to teach English, often at short notice. Governments traditionally use cascade INSET models to introduce new curricula, teaching methods and materials to teachers throughout the education system but research worldwide indicates that there is often little classroom take-up from traditional, one-off INSET courses. To be effective, INSET/CPD needs to be classroom focused (but not necessarily to take place in the classroom). For instance, they learned how to use stories in their classes, practicing techniques with their peers in the safe and supportive environment of the training center and, during the week before the next course, tried out these techniques in their own classes. They were then able to report back on their experience, their successes and any issues they faced, at the beginning of the next course. In this way the direct, practical relevance of the training was apparent even though teachers had to leave their classrooms in order to receive training; contrasting with traditional lecture modes of training where classroom techniques were neither demonstrated by trainers nor tried out by teachers. Wherever possible, research also indicates the importance of offering in-school support to teachers to assist them in coming to terms with what they have been exposed to on courses within their professional learning community. It is noted that many programs aimed to improve teachers’ classroom skills but they “found that few participants actually received assistance and feedback in their classrooms during the critical and difficult implementation phase when they were trying out new practices,” in spite of the fact that: “Follow-up support to teachers during the implementation phase of change has long been identified as an important feature of more effective programs”. They concluded that: Policy-makers and school administrators need to give equal attention to building the conditions that will enable schools to provide fertile ground for professional learning on an ongoing basis and as a routine part of the job. This study indicates that a substantial level of professional community is vital to significant change. The key ingredients here are time to think, analyze and talk about the specifics of what is going on in classrooms and what students are doing and learning. Download 268.64 Kb.
