Abstract:

independent teachers are those who leave public schools and use the Internet as a platform for educational and teaching activities.The formation of independent teachers is a new phenomenon in the field of education. The theoretical perspective of job embedding can reveal the internal mechanism of independent teacher formation:From the aspect of fit-organization, conflict between professional enterprising intention and organizational environment.From the aspect of links-organization,The weak link characteristic of the relationship between peer and peer under the culture of isolationist teachers;From the aspect of sacrifice-organization, Expected future revenue can compensate for possible losses. The three factors reduce the teacher’s job embedding.An attribution analysis of the formation of independent teachers from the embedded perspective has implications for the preservation of high-quality teachers in public schools.In order to avoid the loss of high-quality teachers, public schools should pay attention to the vision of teachers’ professional development and enhance the fit-organization of teachers,Cultivating teachers’ cooperative culture and promoting the links-organization of teachers,Reasonable design of salary and welfare, increasing the sacrifice-organization of teachers when they leave office.

Key words: independent teachers, job embedding, preservation of high-quality teachers
