    Applying Galperin model to teacher professional development: A qualitative case study of a peer coaching program
    (John Wiley & Sons, 2024) Kamali, Jaber; Javahery, Pourya; Kamali, Jaber; Rektörlük, Yabancı Diller Okulu
    The present study is an attempt to apply Galperin spiral model to implement and analyze a peer coaching program. To do so, six teachers (three coaches and three protégés), who attended a 3-month peer coaching program in which protégés received help from their more experienced peers (coaches), completed narrative frames about the program and participated in individual semistructured interviews. After the transcription of the interviews, the thematic analysis was conducted on the gathered data. The results of the study revealed that although there are evidential obstacles to doing the program including inter alia, cultural schema, teacher financial well-being and discontinuity of it, the employed model could provide additional aid and critical look for implementing peer coaching programs in educational contexts. Teachers and teacher educators can benefit from the findings by applying the proposed model in peer coaching programs.

    Examining the interplay of teacher emotional intelligence and feedback responsiveness in post-observation conferences: Voices from Iran
    (Springer Nature, 2024) Kamali, Jaber; Javahery, Pourya; Rektörlük, Yabancı Diller Okulu
    This study attempted to investigate the impact of teachers’ Emotional Intelligence (EI) on how they respond to post-observation feedback. To do so, 11 Iranian EFL teachers were selected and divided into two groups of high and low EI based on their EI test results. Based on their observed classes, post-observation conferences were held between the teacher and the observer. A thorough thematic analysis of the data unveiled three pre dominant themes: (1) maintaining positive moods and coping with stressful situations, (2) accepting negative feedback and justifying one’s performance, and (3) accepting negative feedback and becoming defensive. The findings of the study suggested that there were obvious differences in the way the teachers reacted to feedback from their observers. High EI teachers remained more confident after the negative feedback, were willing to listen to the observer, were active listeners, were open to criticism, and reflected on their performance. Low EI teachers, however, became agitated, failed to control their stress, tried to justify their performance, did not tend to accept the negative feedback, became defensive, responded immediately, and used discourse boosters frequently after the nega tive feedback. The study urges updated teacher education programs informed by teachers’ EI, particularly in providing feedback on their performance.

    Teachers' personality types and their attitude toward receiving and employing postobservation feedback
    (Wiley, 2023) Kamali, Jaber; Kamali, Jaber; Javahery, Pourya; Kamali, Jaber; Rektörlük, Yabancı Diller Okulu; Rektörlük, Yabancı Diller Okulu
    Classroom observation has been long considered a power-ful tool for evaluating and monitoring teachers' perform-ance and progress. Teachers can benefit from the feedbackduring the postobservation conference but giving feedbackis not a simple skill and needs knowledge and training.Research on tackling postobservation problems remainsemerging and the aim of this study is to explore the rolethat a teacher's personality type–based on DiSC personal-ity test?might play in postobservation conferences andreaction to receiving feedback from the supervisor. Togather data, 20 nonnative EFL teachers were asked to takethe DiSC personality test to have their personality typesidentified, then they were observed three times, and eachtime they received feedback on their classroom manage-ment techniques. Results indicate that teachers withdifferent personality types act differently during thepostobservation conferences. While D and i styles areactive and tend to employ feedback moderately andstrongly in their classes, S and C styles are mostly passivewith the tendency of employing feedback moderately andweakly. The findings contribute to a better understandingof the role of personality types in teachers' tolerance ofcriticism and their tendency to apply the received feedbackin their future classes.

    Collaborative reflection as a means to improve teachers’ reflective skills: A community of practice perspective
    (Routledge, 2024) Kamali, Jaber; Javahery, Pourya; Rektörlük, Yabancı Diller Okulu
    This study aims at using collaborative reflection to see how itimpacts teachers’ breadth and depth of reflection on teachingpractice. To do so, as a part of an in-house professional develop-ment program of two schools of languages in Iran, eight teachersattended four sessions of collaborative reflection in which theyfocused on teacher talk. In these sessions, they wrote a reflectivenote about a teaching session they had observed for 20 minutes,engaged in a discussion with their peers for an additional 30minutes, and wrote another reflective note after the sessions inanother 20 minutes. Their reflective notes were compared to findpossible differences. To corroborate the data, the teachers all com-pleted narrative frames and attended semi-structured interviews inwhich they discussed any changes in their thoughts and the rea-sons for the changes. The gathered data were analyzed using in-depth thematic analysis, which involved iterative coding and themeidentification to uncover differences in reflective depth and diver-sity. The findings indicated that collaborative reflection significantlyenhanced teachers’ reflective skills, leading to more practical, andmore diverse reflections. This study suggested that incorporatingcollaborative reflection in professional development programs canfoster critical thinking and continuous improvement among lan-guage teachers.
