The purpose of this research was to investigate the needs of career guidance for novice elementary teachers and to discuss the related issues in the view of these teachers. This research was conducted via questionnaire survey to the public elementary teachers with less than three years of formal teaching experience in east counties of Taiwan: Ilan, Hualien, and Taitung counties. Research results show the following conclusions: 1. Novice elementary teachers find career guidance necessary, and most expect moderate to high guidance levels. The need of guidance in “personal advanced studies and lifestyle” is the highest, whereas the need of guidance in “school administration and operation” is the least. 2. As to the eight career guidance aspects of novice teachers, variables such as “sex,” “formal teaching service duration,” “locations of schools” and “structural designs of schools” create differences among the eight career guidance aspects of novice teachers, “class size” variable has minimum effects on career guidance aspects of novice teachers. These constructive suggestions have been made according to the analyses of literature and conclusive research. It can be used as a reference for developmental teaching staff, educational administration units, elementary schools, novice elementary school teachers, and researchers of further educational studies.
