##### **Sažetak** |
Obilježja profesija o kojima se danas govori svoju podlogu pronalaze u pravnoj i liječničkoj profesiji koje su smatrane prvim pravim profesijama. Analizom njihovih obilježja izvedena su općenita obilježja koje bi svaka profesija trebala imati. Jedno od najčešćih obilježja je dulji period visokoškolskog obrazovanja članova profesije, odnosno profesionalaca, tijekom kojeg stječu specijalizirana znanja i praktične vještine. Profesija bi trebala imati razvijena profesionalna udruženja, odnosno komoru koja propisuje i etički kodeks ponašanja profesionalaca. Sve navedeno utječe na prepoznatljivost profesije i profesionalca u javnosti i njezin društveni status koji bi trebao biti visok. Profesionalna autonomija i odgovornost u primjeni stečenog specijaliziranog znanja karakteriziraju profesionalce koji bi trebali dijeliti profesionalne vrijednosti kako bi postigli međusobnu povezanost. Uvidom u učiteljsku profesiju u kontekstu Republike Hrvatske može se doći do zaključka da ona uglavnom posjeduje obilježja profesije, no da i neka obilježja nedostaju. Ovaj rad predstavlja kvalitativno istraživanje provedeno metodom fokus grupe na uzorku (N=7) studenata četvrte i pete godine učiteljskih studija u Republici Hrvatskoj. Analizom rezultata fokus grupe dobiven je uvid u percepciju obilježja učiteljske profesije i učitelja kao profesionalca iz perspektive studenata učiteljskih studija. |

##### **Teachers' student perception of characteristics of teaching profession and teachers as professionals** |
##### **Abstract** |
The characteristics of the professions discussed today find their basis in the law and medical profession, which were considered the first real professions. By analyzing their characteristics, the general characteristics that every profession should have were determined. One of the most often characteristics of a profession is a longer period of higher education of its members, that is professionals, during which they acquire specialized knowledge and practical skills. A profession should have developed professional associations, in other words, a chamber which defines a code of ethics. All of the above affects the recognition of the profession and the professional in the public and its social status, which should be high. Professional autonomy and responsibility while using acquired specialized knowledge characterize professionals who should share professional values in order to achieve interconnectedness. An insight into the teaching profession in the context of the Republic of Croatia leads to the conclusion that the teacher profession in the Republic of Croatia mainly has the characteristics of the profession, but that some characteristics are missing. This paper presents qualitative research conducted by the focus group method on a sample (N = 7) of fifth year students of the teacher education faculties in the Republic of Croatia. The analysis of the results of the focus group provides an insight into the perception of the characteristics of the teaching profession and teachers as professionals from the perspective of students of the teacher education faculties. |
