- Survival: The main characteristics of the Teachers in the survival stage are: -they begin to question their personal and professional competence and their desire to teach. -Teachers start to ask themselves questions such as can I make it until the end of the week? Can I really do this work they after day? Can I get through the day in one piece? - Teachers on this stage focus mainly on their needs instead of on their students' needs. -lack of clear rules and routines in the classroom -it's often a teacher-directed style Because of all of the above they need specific suggestions and support By the second year teachers might have entered the consolidation stage -Teachers in this stage have been able to implement rules and routines -They also focus on their students needs. They ask themselves questions such as: How can I help this child who doesn't seem to be learning? _The begin to focus on ther students uniqueness and personal needs. -On this stage teachers need opportunities to share their feelings with teachers in similar stages. We need to provide teachers in this stage with resources to meet specific needs of the students in the classroom. The third stage Renewal Here teachers are often in their third or fourth year of teaching. _In this stage activities and patterns have become boring and teachers are looking for new ideas and variety. -Teachers have mastered management strategies and students are engaged in tasks that are appropriate to their individual needs - Here teachers are looking for new materias and methods and become interested in professional development and graduate courses. - These teachers are very self-motivated The last stage Maturity occurs when teachers begin to ask questions of themselves and their teaching that focus on insights, perspectives, beliefs of teaching. -Teachers begin to ask more abstract questions about their philosophy of teaching and the impact on the place where they are teaching These teachers should be encourage to participate in conferences and seminars and to accept leadership positions They make excellent mentors
- Here I will ask them to brainstorm ideas just telling them the question and then I will tell them the examples you told me. I will also expand on them using characteristics of the different stages. Getting involved in a systematic teacher development program will help you through all stages. for example in the first stage when teachers are not good at setting rules and routines they can attend a workshop on that to get some tips When we create a TD program we need to aim at teachers who are undergoing different stages. Here we can ask teachers who are in the last stage maturity to deliver a presentation on a specific topic that will help other teachers who are in a different stage or why not to share ideas or activities that have worked for him with teachers who are in the same stage looking for variety.
