Beginning Teachers’ Job Experiences in Multi-ethnic Schools
Authors: Piot Liesbeth, Kelchtermans Geert, Ballet Katrijn
This paper reports on an exploratory study of beginning teachers’ experiences in one secondary multi-ethnic school in Flanders. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six beginning teachers and two mentors. The authors concluded that the structural and cultural working conditions as well as the personal belief systems of the teachers were essential to understand the actual impact of the multi-ethnic character of the school on new teachers’ job experiences. Due to the mediating role of these factors, beginning teachers do not consider the multi-cultural character of their working environment as problematic as such.

Perceptions of Beginning Teacher Educators of their Development in Research and Scholarship: Identifying the 'Turning Point' Experiences
Authors: Harrison Jennifer, McKeon Frankie
This article highlights the blurring of boundaries as beginning teacher educators cope with the varying demands of teaching and research activities in higher education institutions (HEIs) in England. Three cases of newcomers to higher education and working in different HEIs are examined over a two-year period. The concept of the 'turning point' as a betwixt state is adopted to help identify significant experiences which result in a developing sense of belonging (or not) to academic and scholarly life. Four different categories are also deployed to highlight the case studies' understanding of being a university researcher.

When Being Able is not Enough. The Combined Value of Positive Affect and Self-Efficacy for Job Satisfaction in Teaching
Authors: Moe Angelica, Pazzaglia Francesca, Ronconi Lucia
The authors examine the hypothesis that teaching effectively does not in itself guarantee satisfaction: positive affect and self-efficacy beliefs are needed. Hence, this study examines how good strategies and praxis interplay with positive affect and self-efficacy to determine a teacher's job satisfaction. Self-assessment scales, designed to assess the use of efficient teaching strategies and praxes, self-efficacy in teaching, positive affect and job satisfaction, were completed by 399 teachers.

A Multifaceted Approach to Teacher Induction
Authors: Bickmore Dana L., Bickmore Steven T.
