摘要

TikTok and other social media platforms have rapidly grown in popularity as a means for teachers to network and share pedagogical information and classroom practices. Classroom management is a particularly important skill for teachers as a support for students’ academic, social, and emotional development and teacher well-being; however, many teachers have underdeveloped skills in this area, highlighting the need for professional development opportunities. In this study, we analyzed a corpus of 100 #TeacherTok videos to investigate the content quality and virality of videos. We discuss our findings with regard to the potential to leverage #TeacherTok as a tool to bolster the professional development of teachers’ classroom management skills.
