The Deweyan category of the transaction – allowing to overcome the opposition between objectivism and subjectivism in the educational studies – provides effective regulatory criteria in order to design and manage the academic training of educators, who go through a transitional state that assumes the characteristics of transformation. In this perspective, the present contribution illustrates the epistemological and methodological coordinates that characterize the training of educators within one of the training-research activities promoted by the University of Naples Suor Orsola Benincasa.

This Case Report narrates the trajectory of the project named Stories de Leituras, developed in 2017 with students of the 3rd year of High School at the IFSP campus Cubatão. The main goal of this project is to discuss how the use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICT) can improve reading activities. The project proposes the use of the Insta-gram Social Network as a virtual diary in which students can register their relationship with the book and interact with colleagues' posts. The project also aims to reflect on the influence of vestibular exams on the choices of literature books adopted in High School.

—Reflective practice in teaching is an important requirement for continuous improvement in professional education. In this work, we report on an approach to reflective practice which leverages the technical domain knowledge of the teacher-specifically that of engineering control systems. The structure, elements and properties of a typical control system are appropriated as a model (Control Systems Framework) for the teaching and learning of control systems in a Chemical Engineering qualification in South Africa. By considering the analogies of the various control system elements (and where these analogies break down) in the teaching and learning environment, reflection on teaching activities, as well as potential intervention design, is achieved. The CSF model is demonstrated in a particular case study, and the approach is shown to fit within the broader frame of design-based research methods. The desirable properties of successful design-based research are determined from literature, and reflected on for this work.

An educator is a teacher and a lifelong learner, involved in the profession, the community, and the world. The Internet, connecting computers in a global communications network, opens mind-boggling possibilities and is already changing many paradigms related to education. This paper will introduce one of the world's first major academic conferences held entirely on-line, including a transcribed synchronous multiple user 'MOO' discourse with EFL/ESL educators abroad.

The impetus for this study was the need to provide effective training for English teachers on the use of Google Drive-related apps at a Japanese school. This training was necessary as the school embarked on creating a Japanese government-required information and communications technology (ICT) educational environment at the school. To address this situation, a professional development (PD) experience was designed for the teachers at the school. This involved a 12-week lesson study cycle with weekly planning meetings, and 5 sessions of technology classes focused on G Suite Google Drive apps.
The design and evaluation of the PD incorporated adult learning theory, literature on traditional Japanese PD, non-native language speaker research, literature on barriers to technology integration, research on educational technology PD, instructional systems design, and theory on appropriate PD evaluation. This study examined the design, development, implementation, and evaluation of the technology-based PD experience. This study used qualitative methods for collecting and analyzing data, within a designed framework based on Guskey’s Five Levels of PD Evaluation (2000), to assess the effects of the professional development on the participants.>

This paper proposes the results of an exploratory study aimed at investigating the formal training and in-service training for childcare staff. The aim of the research is to investigate how educators learn their profession. The study lies in the field of qualitative comparative education. Through semi-structured interviews, this empirical study into a comparative approach between two European countries, France and Italy, allows to analyse formal, non-formal and informal education and professional development of educators. The results focus on the differences both in the organisation of professions and in the organisation of formal training and in-service training in the two contexts studied. Il presente contributo riporta l'analisi dei risultati di un'indagine esplorati-va avente lo scopo di indagare la formazione di base e quella in servizio del personale dei nidi d'infanzia. L'obiettivo dell'indagine è di investigare come il personale nei servizi per la prima infanzia impara il suo mestiere. La ricer-ca si colloca nel campo di studio dell'educazione comparata qualitativa. At-traverso interviste semistrutturate, questa ricerca empirica in un approccio comparativo tra due paesi europei, ovvero la Francia e l'Italia, permette di analizzare la formazione formale, non formale ed informale del personale nei nidi d'infanzia. I risultati della ricerca evidenziano le differenze sia nel-l'organizzazione delle professioni sia nell'organizzazione della formazione di base e quella in servizio nei due contesti studiati.

The training of educational staff through dance-movement therapy meets a very sensitive professional community to bodily aspects inside relationships, especially those with children from 0 to 3 years.
Kindergarten educators have a background that urges to be daily tested and shaped, in a research process which is both personal and shared with colleagues, in order to be transformed into a cultural heritage to be used in the whole structure.
The present work shows a theoretical/practical training for childhood educators, which was an answer to declared needs collected through interviews.
The methodology, based on kinetic experience, activated in all the participants a self-observation process, which opened new ways of considering their professional identity, relationships quality and motivation for a greater sense of efficacy in their job. Dance-movement therapists in educational field can adopt, on the other side, the co-leading model as an enriching tool in the creative process.

Education is a powerful weapon to change the world. It is a continuous complex, dynamic and lifelong process. Now days Educational Technology occupies a prominent place in the teaching learning processes. The purpose of Educational Technology is to improve the effectiveness of the teaching-learning processes. It will help the teachers to teach well and learners to learn well. E-Education is one of the most sought after modes of delivery of educational institutions in any time any where mode; there is a close relationship between the quality of education and the quality of teachers. The quality of education depends upon the knowledge and attitude of teachers, In this context, every teacher educator should be aware of Educational Technology. Hence the investigators had conducted a study ‘A Study on Attitude towards E-Education among Teachers educators. For the present study the investigators randomly selected Fifty Teacher Educators in Mahabubnagar district. After framing necessary objectives and hypotheses appropriate analysis was carried out on the collected data. From the analysis it was found that there is significant difference in the Mean scores of attitude towards e-Education among the Teacher Educators with respect to their gender, residence, and streams.

What can one education administrator or policy-maker do about homophobia or transphobia directed toward educators in scholastic settings? As editors of this special collection of the Canadian Journal of Educational Administration and Policy, we have opened this introductory essay with the words of Margaret Mead in order to underscore an important message contained in all of the essays of this collection: education administrators and policy makers are paramount to creating learning environments that are respectful of sexual and gender diversity for all staff and students. This holds true for a variety of educational settings ranging from publicly-funded Catholic and non-Catholic kindergarten to Grade 12 schools (K–12) to higher learning settings such as colleges, universities, transnational teaching abroad programs, and adult and community education spaces.
