International Schools | Abstract: | The underlying premise of this paper is that the education landscape has changed in recent times and is undergoing even more dramatic changes. These changes include, but are not limited to, globalisation, evolving national curricula, the need for a more global education, attracting and retaining value-adding faculty members and the increased competition to attract students. Another significant hurdle that schools need to deal with is a shrinking pool of available teachers. Enrolment by young people into teacher education degrees are falling and further exacerbating the situation is the fact that many existing Baby Boomer aged teachers are retiring from teaching.
These changes in the teaching landscape are all having an impact on the ways schools conduct business, and is particularly true in the international school setting. Added to this, some of the historical attractions such as salary, benefits and the adventure of travel may not have the same currency or value that they once enjoyed. A significant proportion of teachers in international schools are less than 40 years old and by various learned and accepted definitions, fall into the generational category of millennials. This cohort, the so-called millennial, has been the focus of some research of late, and initial findings would indicate that there are a lot of unknowns and misconceptions surrounding millennials, their expectations, their world view, and how to best utilise them in the workforce.
Following these lines of inquiry, it is believed that identifying some of these potential generational differences in needs and wants will assist schools in developing sustainable strategies for the attraction, development and retention of young teachers, which in turn will create increased efficiency and competitive advantage. | Curricular : | BBA/MBA/PhDM | Record link: | http://libsearch.siu.ac.th/siu/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=27928 |
