'Understanding young people's aspirations to teach' (with the Royal Society of Chemistry)

英国目前和预计的教师短缺仍然是一个相当令人关注的问题。中学对教师的需求最为迫切。科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）科目被认为是最长期的教师短缺。该奖学金将为促进了解年轻人（10-23岁）如何形成他们对教学，特别是科学教学的愿望和想法做出宝贵而独特的贡献。使用混合方法（调查和访谈），学生将使用ASPIRES/ASPIRES 2研究进行新的实证研究和二次分析，由经济和社会研究理事会资助，并由路易斯·阿彻教授领导。皇家化学学会是英国化学教育领域最大的非政府投资者，对了解目前专业STEM教师短缺问题特别感兴趣。申请特别欢迎具有教学和STEM教育研究经验和兴趣的候选人以及教育，社会学或其他相关社会科学学科的硕士学位。咨询：https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ioe/departments-and-centres/departments/education-practice-and-society/aspires-2了解更多关于ASPIRES/ASPIRES 2研究的细节，并直接询问伦敦大学学院教育学院的l.ucl.ac.uk。我们的意图是，奖学金将分配在+3全职的基础上。

The current and projected teacher shortage in England remains an issue of considerable concern. The need for teachers is most acute at secondary level. Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects have been identified as having some of the most chronic teacher shortages. This studentship will make a valuable and distinctive contribution to advancing knowledge of how young people (aged 10-23) form their aspirations and ideas about teaching, particularly science teaching. Using mixed methods (surveys and interviews), the student will conduct both new empirical research and secondary analysis using the ASPIRES/ ASPIRES2 studies, funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, and led by Professor Louise Archer. The Royal Society of Chemistry is the biggest non-governmental investor in chemistry education in the UK and has a particular interest in understanding the current specialist STEM teacher shortage. Applications are particularly welcomed from candidates with experience and interest in teaching and STEM education research and a Masters degree in Education, Sociology or another relevant social science discipline. Consult: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ioe/departments-and-centres/departments/education-practice-and-society/aspires-2 for further details on the ASPIRES/ASPIRES2 research study and direct enquiries to l.archer@ucl.ac.uk at UCL Institute of Education. The intention is that the studentship will be allocated on a +3 full time basis.
