摘要:AbstractThis study relies on the theoretical premises concerning the development of professional competences of the beginning teachers. The starting point is the operational model that integrates seven categories of competences: cognitive and metacognitive, methodological, communicational and relational, evaluative, psychosocial, career management, as well as ICT competencies.The goal of the study is to propose and validate a programme meant to improve the psychosocial competences of the beginning teachers. In order to run the research we have established the following objectives: development and pre-testing of the tools for the experimental model; initial evaluation of the psychosocial competencies, design and course of a programme of formative activities that lead to the improvement of the psychosocial competencies; final evaluation of the psychosocial competencies.As research methods we used: the formative psycho-pedagogical experiment with repeated measurements (test – post test), analysis of the products of teachers’ activities (projects, competencies portfolios), psycho-pedagogical observation, and statistical methods. The stages of the psycho-pedagogical experiment are the following: initial evaluation of the level of psychosocial competences of the beginning teachers, design and application of a programme of formative activities that leads to the improvement of the psychosocial competences.Statistical facts obtained during the research show significant differences with respect to the results obtained by the beginning teachers at the evaluation applied at the end of the formative stage, compared to those obtained at the initial evaluation.The results of this research will bring a contribution to the optimization of the initial training programmes of the beginning teachers, and support their psycho-pedagogical training for better socio-professional integration.
