The Mobility and Identity of Teachers of the Remote and Minority Regions of China
Abstract
This research article primarily focuses on the factors influencing teachers' mobility and professional identity in rural China. The investigation was conducted through interviews with several remote teachers and students, followed by a summary of their key findings and concerns. The main discovery from the research identifies four major components affecting teacher mobility and identity, including economic development, the subtle connections between remote areas and the educational resources of other regions in China, personal pursuit and village environment, and the mentality of dedicating to remote education.
