Research on the Diversity of Teachers' Professional Development Paths: Based on the Perspectives of Teacher Self-Concern and Teaching Innovation

With the development of educational change, teachers' professional development has gradually shifted from single-skill training to the enhancement of multidimensional competence. The traditional development path ignores the intrinsic needs of teachers, leading to increased burnout and insufficient motivation for innovation. Teachers' self-concern and pedagogical innovation provide new perspectives for breaking through this dilemma; the former emphasizes the construction of teachers' psychological capital and professional identity, while the latter focuses on the innovation of teaching practice. Based on this, this paper explores the diversified paths of teachers' professional development under the perspectives of self-concern and pedagogical innovation, with a view to providing strategic references for teachers' professional development and helping them break through the bottleneck of development.
