Evaluation of Effectiveness of In-Service Teacher Training : From the Point of View of Educational Philosophy and Cultural Comparison

本文的目的是考虑一种合适的方法来评估在职教师培训（特别是具有10年经验的教师培训）对日本和德国学校教育中教师能力发展和成长的有效性。结论：叙事法对教师能力的发展成长和在职教师培训效果的评价更为恰当；发展和成长的过程是多种多样的，不应将其概括为一个典型的人生阶段；有效的是以教师实际任务为基础，教师自愿参与的培训。

The aim of this paper is to consider about an appropriate method to evaluate the effectiveness of in-service teacher training (especially the training for teachers with 10-year experience) for development and growth of teachers' abilities in Japanese and German school education. Conclusion : the development and growth of teachers' abilities and the effectiveness of in-service teacher training are evaluated more appropriately with the narrative approach ; the course of the development and growth is so various that it should not be generalized as a typical life stage ; effective is the training, which is based on the practical tasks of teachers and is participated in of teachers' own accord.
