In the Canadian context, although most considerations of the home-target language use divide are centred on the presence of English in French Second Language (FSL) programs, the increasing number of immigrants has provided impetus to extend the discussion to include the use of languages beyond Canada’s official languages.  With the use of questionnaires with novice teachers pre and post Bachelor of Education programs and interviews for three years hence, this study sought to explore novice teachers’ perspectives on the use of languages in the FSL classes that include English language learners (ELL). Novice teachers remained consistent in identifying the need to maximize French use, minimize English use, and include languages from students’ language repertoires as useful means to support the FSL acquisition of ELLs. In addition, the novice teacher participants revealed a preference for ELLs to be included in core French as opposed to immersion programming.

The leadership styles of the Prophet consist of Shiddiq, Amanah, Tabligh, and Fathanah, which can be adopted as teacher leadership styles. Personal branding in Islamic perspective is a character that can be imaged by someone so that other people who see it can characterize that person, while leadership in a teacher's personal branding can be seen from the akhlaq possessed by the teacher in managing the class so that the learning process teaches work effectively. This chapter explains the definition of leadership and the leadership style of teachers in the classroom, the leadership style of the Prophet Muhammad SAW, the definition of personal branding, and how teachers can implement the type of leadership of the Prophet in leading classes that will be used as role models for their students through their personal branding assessment. It aims at how a teacher can make a personal branding who will be a role model and idolized by students in the class so that he can become a leader according to the perspective of the leadership of the Prophet Muhammad.

This study tracks the progress of one Iowa school district over the course of three years through its implementation of a Teacher Leadership and Compensation (TLC) model, designed in response to a statewide TLC system initiative. A survey administered at baseline and at the conclusion of each of three pilot years measured teacher leadership development, identified specific areas for improvements, and guided the district’s teacher leadership support efforts. Scores from the items demonstrated evidence of reliability and district leaders reported that resulting data were beneficial to an implementation plan that yielded increased planned retention and improved practice, two goals for the TLC model. Implications for the use of the survey tool, policy, and practice around teacher leadership development are discussed in the context of the collective leadership of teachers and administrators together.

The article recommends using the acmeological approach in the formation and development of the teacher’s personality, which will be necessary in his leadership development. According to the authors’ viewpoint, acmeological competence and leadership are developed on the basis of such personal qualities as responsibility, independence, the ability to solve problems creatively, initiative, the ability to set one’s goals, taking an active part, success-motivation, self-motivation, self-knowledge, self-improvement, self-education, etc. The most important quality in the development of certain aspects of personality is to reveal internal psychology of a person. Hence, the authors come to the conclusion that having formed acmeological competence, the teacher will be able to be on their best and achieve goals, among which there is also leadership development.

Teacher leadership is pivotal for the development of educational institutions. However, teachers’ perceptions about teacher leadership have been under explored. In this study, the researchers review sixteen studies conducted in the USA, South Africa and other European, Asian, and Middle Eastern countries. Four themes emerged after analysis of the texts: perceptions of teachers about teacher leadership practices, factors influencing teacher leadership, teacher leadership development, and barriers to teacher leadership. Results show that teacher leaders are engaged in mentoring teachers, coordinating with administration, curriculum development and implementation, and subject matter development. The physical environment of the school, teachers’ age, experience, qualification, and support from the administration also influences teachers’ perceptions about teacher leadership. Teacher leadership development is influenced by teachers’ own beliefs, principals’ support and teachers’ professional development. Some barriers to teacher leadership are also discussed in this paper.
