| Περίληψη: |
As language teachers increasingly move across countries, they need to negotiate the relationship between global professional knowledge and local educational and cultural demands. Yet little is known about how transnational novice language teachers experience glocalisation over time, particularly when gaining professional recognition requires them to engage with unfamiliar local cultural expectations and ways of knowing. This study examined how transnational novice Chinese language teachers experienced and negotiated glocalisation within a bicultural and multilingual school ecology in Aotearoa New Zealand, and how this process shaped their professional legitimacy and teacher identity. It drew on longitudinal data, including reflective journals and interviews over 8 months, and analysed them through an abductive qualitative longitudinal approach. Findings show that glocalisation developed through a gradual process of local becoming. Participants first entered the local school world through everyday and Māori cultural practices, gradually recognising the limits of their prior knowledge and adapting Chinese teaching to locally meaningful practices and learner contexts. Over time, these experiences strengthened local professional recognition and reshaped how participants understood themselves as teachers. In addition, the professional capital gained through glocalisation may not travel easily across contexts but may depend on how it is reinterpreted and revalued in future settings.
