As such, implementing of positive youth development (PYD) programs is a promising and viable approach. Unfortunately, there are few positive youth development programs in China, with the possible exception of Tin Ka Ping P.A.T.H.S. Project. After the pandemic, we implemented the project in several provinces in China. To ensure program success, we conducted systematic training for teachers on a regular basis. In this paper, we present the evaluation of the teachers of the training program, particularly the impact of the program on teacher competence and their well-being. Quantitative and qualitative findings generally showed that the majority of the teachers had positive evaluation of the programs and they regarded the programs to be important for youth development. They also found the training programs to be effective in enhancing their teaching competence, knowledge about the program and related theories, and positive attitudes towards teaching the program. Teachers also had reflections showing that the program helped them develop more positive views about young people and they saw the Project P.A.T.H.S. as a tool to foster youth development. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
