Kalbach  \nRod Diercks Lisa McClurkin Vargason Doane University  \nAbstract  \nAs teacher shortages increase across the United States, educator preparation programs are tasked with preparing a new generation of teachers equipped to succeed in an increasingly challenging landscape. Along with ensuring that candidates develop deep content knowledge and effective pedagogical skills, national accreditation bodies also require educator preparation programs to monitor and support pre-service teachers’dispositional development. The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand teachers, administrators, clinical experience supervisors, and education faculty members’ perspectives of the dispositional qualities that pre-service teachers need to develop to be successful educators. Our goal was first to gain an understanding and then to use it to develop a tool to teach and evaluate the dispositional characteristics pre-service teachers need to successfully transition into their teaching careers. We collected data from 30 participants via an open-ended survey and a subsequent focus group of five participants. Using open and focused coding followed by code mapping, three themes emerged including a commitment to (1) professionalism,(2) relationships, and (3) learning. We used these three themes and their 12 subthemes, along with feedback from our participants, to create a Teacher Identity Development tool. With specific indicators of each disposition, this tool can be used by educator preparation programs not only to monitor and assess pre-service teachers’ discrete dispositional skill development but, more  \nAILACTE Journal 75  \nYoung, Pettit, Kalbach, Diercks, and Vargason  \nimportantly, to facilitate the development of a teacher identity as candidates journey toward becoming effective educators in our current educational landscape.  \nKeywords: dispositions, pre-service teacher development, teacher preparation, teacher identity development  \n76 AILACTE Volume XIX 2022  \nTeacher Identity Development: A Formative Approach  \nTeacher Identity Development: A Formative Approach to Pre-service Teachers’ Dispositional Development  \nWhat makes a good teacher? Few would argue that good teachers have strong instructional skills and a passion for their content matched by depth of knowledge. Yet, the best teachers—the most impactful—arguably have something more, something less tangible. They seem to have a human capacity that supports and yet transcends instructional skill and content knowledge, giving them a heightened ability to succeed ina complicated and often conflicted institution. This capacity, or disposition, reflects specific values and beliefs that guide decisions and behavior; it is crucial to teacher development (Ellis et al., 2009). Dispositional development is complex and develops throughout the career of the educator as new experiences are encountered (Beijaard & Meijer, 2017). Consequently, it is an issue that needs to be raised early and consistently in educator preparation programs (EPPs) as a key piece of professional development. There is now greater urgency on the topic as school districts across the country replace scores of veteran teachers with new hires, some of whom will have yet to complete their educational preparation and therefore will have not yet solidified a thorough awareness of their own dispositional qualities.  \nWhile pre-service teachers are working to develop their dispositional qualities, EPPs and education scholars are grappling with the particulars of disposition (e.g. Casey et al., 2021; Ellis et al., 2009; Truscott & Stenhouse, 2022; West et al., 2018). What makes up teacher dispositions and how can their development be evaluated? Better yet, what does the word“disposition” even mean and when did it take such importance in teacher education?
