    Hi Darlene, found this online from Mount Royal College in Alberta:
    “The Emergence of Professional Identity in Teacher Education
    http://research.mtroyal.ca/research.php?action=view&type=project&pid=470
    Quantitative survey data is based upon Lamote and Engels’ (2010) dimensions of professional identity:
    • Professional orientation – focuses on the teacher candidates’ beliefs in the importance of professionalism
    • Task orientation – focuses on teacher candidates’ views on education, particularly their educational goals for their students, views on discipline, and instructional emphasis
    • Teachers’ self-efficacy – identifies how competent teacher candidates feel in instructional strategies, engaging students, and classroom management
    • Commitment to teaching – indicates how much the teacher candidates feel connected to the teaching profession”

    Their course: EDUC2325: “Understanding Current and Emerging Pedagogical Technologies” looks interesting and though it isn’t online if you search the instructor “norm vaughan mount royal college” on Google more useful links appear.
