چکیده

Caring teaching is a conceptual framework to gain insight into the moral aspect of teaching. Using aquantitative research approach, we studied 556 teachers in order to explore their perceived dimensions of caring teaching. Drawing in existing literature, we found that caring teaching has been elaborated in line with two broad concepts: the personal care and the academic care. Considering these concepts, we developed the Caring Teaching Scale with which we identified four dimensions of caring teaching: the nurture students’ character,the didactical bias, the awareness, and the respectful didactics. A meta-analysis reflection suggests that the nurture students’ character and the awareness represent the personal care while the didactical bias and the respectful didactic call for the academic care. A further analysis showed that the teachers gave more pedagogical value to the personal care. Controlling for two demographic variables, we found statistical significant differences with regarding to gender and caring teaching.
