Abstract: Realization of educational work in schools is complex activity. The difficulties

of achieving educational work in schools stand in the fact that education is a category that
refers to human - individuals. Starting from the fact that each individual has its own
peculiarities which differ from one another then, the educational approach is different for
everyone and is implemented differently. The teacher is the one who has the leading role
in the realization of educational work in school. The teacher as an important factor in the
realization of educational work is analyzed in several dimensions. From his professional
development in relation of individual change as professional and educational protagonist

THE TEACHER’S ROLE AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Dr. Danijela Makovec
August 2018

Abstract: The text addresses the theme of teachers’ professional development. The role
of a teacher is defined by cultural and social events and the environment, and they
influence the differences that occur in the concept of teacher roles within different
cultures, societies, including the geographic environment. Thus, in the first part of the
paper, based on an analysis of the literature, we identify factors that significantly
influence teachers’ perception of their role and consequently, determine their professional
identity. In the second part, based on the results of the empirical research, we show that
factors such as teachers’ beliefs about their own qualifications, as well as years of work
experience and subject area, statistically significantly influenced the development of the
teachers’ professional identity. The main findings of the study are that teachers with
several years of service experience feel better qualified to perform their duties (tasks
related to planning and teaching were rated the most highly) than teachers with less work
experience, and that teachers with more work experience evaluated the claims related to
their educational activity statistically significantly higher. An important finding is that
teachers define their professional identity and consequently, their role through their
personality traits, which shows that we must not ignore teachers’ personality traits, as
they play an important role in teachers’ professional development and identity.

Explain what teaching is and describe the various roles of a teacher.

d) Introduction

The role of a teacher is to help the young ones by imparting knowledge that they
need to know, and give experience that will help the young ones to grow. Teachers are
also a leader, they are the one who will lead the young people, by teaching them the right
learning and experience it will help the young people to be prepared on the challenges
brought by ever-changing world. The role of a teacher is to be a good leader that will give
the young ones an inspiration, encouragement and motivation to achieve their dreams in
life. Teachers must know his responsibilities for being an educator so that he can teach
effectively.

e) Enriched Discussion Proper

The Role of a Teacher

1. As a Person - Understanding the teaching profession requires deeper appreciation of
the lives of teachers as individuals in society. Teachers are given high regard in
society for the multiple roles they perform aside from teaching. Hence, Teacher
Education Institutions TEIs) should embrace the challenge of preparing teachers who
will carry the task of preparing the young generation to meet the different challenges
brought by an ever-changing world. This will prepare them to become effective
professionals in all tasks in various communities, where they will be assigned to
serve.

2. As a Professional - By virtue of Republic Act 7836, amended by Republic Act 9293,

teaching was professionalized and thereby requiring teachers to take the Licensure
Exam for Teachers (LET). As professionals, teachers are bound to preform specific
duties to society specially to schools and students guided by a professional code of
ethics. Teaching is always regarded as a vocation by many people. However, the
government deemed it necessary to recognize teaching as a profession giving the
highest regard to teachers as professionals. This does not in any way make teaching a
profession or a job to earn money but it enables us to regard teaching in grand
manner, a noble profession for individuals who are willing to dedicate their lives and
service in the development of future citizens and leader of the country.

3. As a Community Leader and Social Advocate – Educators play an important role

in the development of people and communities. Jan and Ed Philpot (1994)
Concretized this idea by encouraging a stronger link between home, school and
 community through effective programs developed and implemented by teachers. The
life of a teacher is neither confined in the four corners of the classroom nor is limited
inside the school campus for a teacher is an active leader in the community. Teachers
always take leadership roles in their communities especially in activities and projects
related to the education and welfare of young children. They also provide leadership
roles in various cultural development programs in their communities. Finally,
teachers provide technical and professional assistance in the local communities where
they belong.

4. As a Model of Character – Since ancient times, Teachers are recognized as

examplars of good character, attitude and values. They are keepers of values and
traditions of different cultures around the world. Many people consider them as
prophets, spiritual leaders and great mentors. For Christians, Jesus is the prefect kind
of teacher and leader to emulate. For the Chinese, the teachings and values of
Confucius are always put in a very high regard. The prophet Muhammad is also the
most influential teacher-leader for the Muslims. The life and teachings of Buddha are
also very influential among the Buddhists. Plato and Aristotle are regarded as great
teachers during the time in Greece. They stand on their principles and beliefs, as they
faithfully perform their duties at all times, This simply shows that amidst the ups and
downs of teacher qualities, the society has never stopped producing great teacher who
continue to serve as models and molders for students across generations.

5. As an Expert – since ancient times, teachers are recognized as sources of wisdom

and information in every society. Aside from teaching, they serve as guides,
counselors, judges and spiritual leaders in the society. Through the knowledge they
share, they attract attention from many students and individuals. They are given
prominent position in royal courts, giving expert opinions and advise to kings and
other community leaders. They enjoy political influence in every community where
they belong in the history of mankind. Though teachers no longer hold any political
power today still, there are many teachers who became leaders and citizens in all
generations. The need for teachers to be experts in various field in the academe serves
the purpose to prepare students to respond to myriad of challenges brought by 21 st
Century.

g) Self Reflection

In this topic, I learned that being a teacher is not easy, you need to learn the code
of ethics first so that teaching is more useful. I learned and studied the various role of
teacher, for being as a person, as a professional, as a community leader and social
advocate, as a model of character, and lastly as an expert. With this various role of
teacher, it will help the future educators to understand the importance of being a teacher
in the nation. Teachers are also a leader, they lead the young children by imparting
knowledge that will help them grow.
