As a growing number of educational institutions are offering online programs, teachers need to be competent in this new way of teaching. This is especially the case for synchronous online learning ...through videoconferencing technology, an emergent and so far understudied form of online education. Based on a systematic literature review of 30 studies, this study identifies 24 competence clusters, which can be grouped into 5 teacher roles associated with synchronous online teaching through videoconferencing: the instructional, managerial, technical, communicational, and social role. This framework can act as a starting point for future research on this understudied topic and can also provide directions to support teachers’ professionalization and practice.
•The systematic literature review shows that synchronous online teaching through videoconferencing requires specific competences.•We present a framework for clarifying teachers' roles and competences that are required for synchronous online teaching.•The research synthesis offers directions for professional development initiatives and for teachers to optimize their teaching.
The aim of this article was to assess how students evaluate the professional personality competence of physical education teachers in high school and its relation to student satisfaction and student ...satisfaction with life itself. In line with these aims, this study was completed as a cross-sectional study, which was carried out in a group of 890 physical education students. Of the study group, 50.3% were female and 49.7% were male. The average age was 15.49 years for females (SD 1.79) and 15.00 years for males (SD 2.00). We used a questionnaire featuring the

En este trabajo abordamos la evolución y avance que ha ido teniendo el perfil docente en España y su impacto en la identidad profesional del profesorado de Educación Secundaria, cuestiones ...fundamentales para comprender la profesión y poder avanzar en su camino de mejora. Para ello, realizaremos un análisis a través de la política educativa española y los programas de formación inicial durante los últimos 50 años. La discusión final ofrece una reflexión hacia el modelo formativo vigente y los retos pendientes. Queremos destacar dos cuestiones que ha permitido esta investigación: por un lado, la importancia de diseñar un marco de competencias docentes compartido que oriente las políticas del profesorado y sea transferido en la práctica; por otro, la necesidad de reconstruir la identidad profesional docente, replanteando la arquitectura del esquema formativo vigente y situando la práctica profesional como eje del programa.
There are two central questions determining the pedagogy of teacher education: (1) What are the essential qualities of a good teacher, and (2) How can we help people to become good teachers? Our ...objective is not to present a definitive answer to these questions, but to discuss an umbrella model of levels of change that could serve as a framework for reflection and development. The model highlights relatively new areas of research, viz. teachers’ professional identity and mission. Appropriate teacher education interventions at the different levels of change are discussed, as well as implications for new directions in teacher education.
This study investigated the effect of video-based teaching practice followed by focused group discussion via electronic collaborative discussion forum (ECDF) on the development of teacher ...competences. The trend of change on teacher competences of 30 Iranian English as foreign language teachers was traced before and after treatment on quantitative and qualitative measures. First, a newly designed and validated teacher assessment questionnaire named Teacher Balanced Score Card (TBSC) was used to quantitatively account for the developments of teacher competences including clinical, critical, technical and personal from teacher, student and administrative perspectives. In quantitative measure, supervisors' real classroom non-participant observations and theme elicitation through log analysis of ECDF according to a predetermined data coding schemata helped documenting evidences for teacher competence development on TBSC measure in pretest/posttest design. Multivariate analysis of variance results indicated that there were significant changes in technical and clinical competences. The theme elicitation in log analysis of ECDF implies that the required infrastructure for incorporation of technology, culture cultivation of its use, its role in establishing non-threatening supportive platform for teacher evaluation and its potential in teacher reflection, change initiation and management should be revisited at high levels of policy making and local levels.

Results
Analyses of data from
N
= 284 teachers in Oman and Germany revealed mostly good psychometric parameters, differences in instructional quality between both countries, and positive relations between teachers’ competences and instructional quality.
Conclusion
The present study contributes to instrument development and to the growing body of research, investigating teaching quality during the pandemic.
Introducción: La formación del profesorado para las competencias inclusivas ha ganado importancia recientemente ya que los profesores reconocen la necesidad de estar plenamente formados para ofrecer ...la mejor respuesta educativa al alumnado con necesidades educativas especiales. El objetivo de esta investigación es realizar una Revisión Sistemática y analizar las publicaciones en base a sus características, temas de investigación y competencias docentes, siguiendo las directrices PRISMA. Método: Se realiza una búsqueda en las bases de datos de Scopus y WoS obteniendo 75 publicaciones entre 2016 y 2022. Se plantean 10 preguntas de investigación enmarcadas dentro de 3 áreas temáticas. Resultados: Los resultados dan respuesta a las preguntas planteadas destacando las características de los artículos, la metodología y método que se ha utilizado en cada estudio, así como las competencias estudiadas. Discusión: Se concluye que las competencias con mayor análisis de estudio están parcialmente relacionadas con las propuestas por la Agencia Nacional de Evaluación de Calidad y Acreditación (ANECA) en los Libros Blancos. A la luz de los resultados, se proponen programas formativos para los docentes que contemplen contenido vinculado con competencias específicas para favorecer la inclusión educativa del alumnado con necesidades educativas especiales.
