Relation Between Teachers' Job Satisfaction and Their Motivation for Professional Development

Abstract

The purpose of the research was to deepen the understanding of whether satisfaction with the work that teachers do motivates them to participate in different forms of professional development. Important factors were identified in this context that encourages teachers to participate in professional development. According to selfdetermination theory, SDT (Deci & Ryan, 2000) are two motivational factors that drive an individual to be involved in actions, such as career development. Job satisfaction is an important motivating factor, where in the case of teaching the motivating factor, internal or external, appears to be mixed. Therefore it cannot be ascertained whether satisfaction is the most important motivational factor that influences teacher participation in forms of professional development. If students 'success as a result of quality teaching is considered as a form of teachers' satisfaction with their work then it emerges as an important factor in terms of gender (r= .24).This we have tried to do through quantitative research with a sample of teachers. The degree of job satisfaction and the increased demand / need for participation in various forms of continuous professional development assume that they are not reciprocally linked. Research is quantitative. The data was collected by the questionnaire. The sample consists of 170 teachers belonging to genders, low secondary school, rural and urban school.
