If You Give Teachers What They Do Need

Southern Taiwan Kindergarten teachers' Continuing Education Needs and Job Satisfaction

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book indicates the factors that affect
kindergarten teachers' job satisfaction and
dissatisfaction. Continuing education needs also
play the important role that might increase the
teachers job satisfaction. Teachers should be
encouraged to participate in continuing education
programs, a rapidly developmenting field, in order
to improve their professional abilities, practices
and increase their job satisfaction. A more
efficient kindergarten setting should focus on
increasing teachers' job satisfaction and reduce
their job dissatisfaction. In this book,
kindergarten teachers are satisfied with the
factors: increased responsibility, personal growth
and professional development, domination of teaching
materials and methods, achievement in teaching,
recognition of accomplishment, and interpersonal
relationship. Teachers' perceptions of job
satisfaction and dissatisfaction differ based on
whether they attend or do not attend continuing
education programs. Teachers who attend continuing
education for more than three years have greater job
satisfaction than teachers who attend for fewer
years.
