Creating the future of improving teaching quality and student wellbeing through the dynamic approach to school improvement

这个项目旨在通过出版论文、发展网络、制定资助提案、提高我的研究和专业技能来巩固我的博士影响力。我博士工作的目的是根据动态学校改善方法（DASI）来确定教学质量水平（Creemers, Kyriakides, & Antoniou, 2013），并确定可能与台湾相关的背景因素，以调查教师的真实需求，并为教师提供量身定制的专业发展计划。本研究的另一个目的是探讨教学质量、教师背景特征与认知、学生背景特征与学生成绩之间的关系。为了最大限度地发挥我的博士研究的影响力，我设计了一个全面的沟通、推广和影响战略，将吸引广泛的利益相关者。在项目期间，我将在有影响力的期刊上发表至少两篇文章，为我未来的学术生涯奠定基础。我还将在国内和国际会议上发表演讲。参加会议不仅可以传播我的工作，还可以提供与类似领域的学者和从业者交流或开展相关项目的机会。此外，我计划在剑桥教育学院、达尔文学院和剑桥教育节发表演讲，为我创造机会，结识来自不同领域的从业者和学者，带来不同的方法，这些方法可以在我的研究领域中形成更大的东西，拓宽我的思维方式。正如对近期文献的回顾所证明的那样，DASI已被应用于减少欺凌（例如，Kyriakides & Creemers, 2013），但该模型尚未用于预防健康问题和促进健康。由于欺凌与幸福感交叉相关，因此可以认为，通过使用DASI可以产生显著的积极结果。在我博士学位的下一步，我将在剑桥的小学教师中进行一个试点，根据DASI调整促进学生健康的策略。这个试点的结果将会应用到我未来的英国科学院博士后项目中。我将向小学和蓝色微笑慈善机构发表与我的试点有关的演讲，传播我的成果，扩大它们的影响，并鼓励未来的合作。在项目期间，我也会直接与公众接触，参加一些公共活动，比如剑桥科学节。博客或杂志等社交媒体将用于向公众推广我的博士研究和试点。此外，我计划与西伦敦大学的Michelle Jayman博士会面，以会见其他国际领先的学校健康研究团队。通过与他们会面，我将有机会与学校健康专家建立联系，为未来的合作做准备。这也将为我提供一个机会来测试我关于使用DASI来改善学生福利的想法。我还将在ESRC博士后奖学金期间参加一些定量和定性技能培训课程和专业发展培训。这些培训课程将帮助我扩展我在定量和定性技能方面的专业知识，并建立必要的能力，以确保我的工作产生最大的影响。在此期间，我也将扩大我的教学和监督经验，为我未来的学术生涯做准备。项目完成后，我将收集所有倡议的统计数据和反馈表格，以编写一份综合报告，向ESRC提交我的研究影响。进行这个项目将极大地提升我的能力和学术生涯前景，特别是在申请资助或获得英国顶尖大学的职位方面

This project aims to consolidate the impact of my PhD through producing publications, developing networks, formulating funding proposals, and improving my research and professional skills.The purposes of my PhD work are to identify levels of teaching quality based on the dynamic approach to school improvement (DASI) (Creemers, Kyriakides, & Antoniou, 2013), and to identify contextual factors that may be relevant to Taiwan to investigate teachers' authentic needs, and to provide tailored professional development programmes for teachers. Another purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between teaching quality, teacher background characteristics and perceptions, student background characteristics, and student achievement.To maximise the impact of my PhD research, I have designed a comprehensive communication, outreach and impact strategy that will engage a wide range of stakeholders. During the project I will submit at least two articles to influential journals, helping to establish a track record for my future career in academia. I will also give presentations at national and international conferences. Attending conferences will not only disseminate my work, but also provide the opportunity to network with academics and practitioners in similar fields or conducting related projects. In addition, I propose to deliver talks at the Cambridge Faculty of Education, Darwin College and the Cambridge Festival of Education, creating opportunities for me to meet practitioners and academics from different fields, bringing different approaches which can build into something greater and broaden my way of thinking in my field of study. As is demonstrated by a review of recent literature, DASI has been applied to reducing bullying (e.g., Kyriakides & Creemers, 2013), but this model has not been used in preventing wellbeing problems and promoting wellbeing. Since bullying is cross-related to wellbeing, it can be argued that significant positive results could be produced through the use of DASI. In the next step of my PhD, I will conduct a pilot with primary school teachers in Cambridge to adapt strategies for promoting pupil's wellbeing according to DASI. The results of this pilot will be applied in my future British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowships project. I will deliver talks associated with my pilot to primary schools and the Blue Smile charity, disseminating my results and furthering their impact and encouraging future collaboration. I will also engage directly with the public during the project by participating in public events such as the Cambridge Science Festival. Social media such as blogs or magazines will be used to promote both my PhD research and the pilot to the public.Furthermore, I plan to have a meeting with Dr Michelle Jayman at the University of West London to meet other internationally leading school wellbeing research teams. Through meeting them, I will have an opportunity to network with school wellbeing experts for future collaboration. This will also provide an opportunity for me to test my ideas regarding using DASI in improving student wellbeing.I will also attend a number of quantitative and qualitative skills training courses and professional development training within the period of ESRC Postdoctoral Fellowships. These training courses will help me extend my expertise in quantitative and qualitative skills, and build the competence necessary to ensure my work has maximal impact. During the fellowship, I will also broaden my teaching and supervising experiences to prepare for my future career in academia. When the project is completed, I will collect statistics and feedback forms from all the initiatives to produce a synthesised report on the impact of my research for presentation to the ESRC. Carrying out this project will greatly enhance my capabilities and academic career prospects, particularly regarding applying for grants or obtaining a position at a top UK university
