Abstract:

The discussion about effective instrumental teaching in specialist music education started in the 19th century, with the foundation of the modern conservatory, and has become progressively stronger recently. Research on effective teaching has focused mainly on trying to identify effective teaching descriptors (e.g. feedback, teaching pace and intensity, goal setting). Although while describing the effects of each descriptor several intersections with other descriptors have been observed, no research has yet been produced with the goal of trying to identify effective teaching from a perspective that integrates effective teaching descriptors into one single unit of analysis, that integrates into one observable single phenomenon the ability to adopt a range of strategies purposefully, promptly, and efficiently, in response to the needs that arise throughout any instrumental lesson. To start investigating the possibility of phenomenologically observed effective teaching, existing knowledge about positive subjective experiences like Maslow's peak experiences and Csikszentmihalyi's flow experiences was explored. The conditions needed to trigger peak and flow experiences seemed to have much in common with the results obtained in most of research on effective music teaching. The three studies designed for this thesis (1. Interviews, 2. Diaries, and 3. Teachers self-reports and video-recorded lessons) tried, first, to identify the occurrence of peak or flow experiences while teaching and learning a musical instrument. The next goal was to describe such experiences as they occurred while teaching and to determine what might trigger them. The final goal was to understand if the occurrence of such experiences was linked with effective teaching. All participants in the three studies were teachers and students in Portuguese specialist music schools. The three studies undertaken helped identify Optimal Teaching Experiences as the subjective experiences or the phenomenon that holistically described the act of effectively teaching a musical instrument. Additionally, it was possible to identify external manifestations of these experiences and, consequently, of effective instrumental teaching. These findings will support the work of Teacher Educators, and assist in maintaining or raising the quality of instrumental teaching in specialist Music Schools, Conservatoires and Universities.

Abstract:

Primary science education is a key area in the curriculum, yet primary science education is still less than adequate, both in the number of teachers implementing a primary science syllabus and the quality of primary science teaching. Mentoring may support both teachers in their roles as mentors and preservice teachers as mentees to develop their primary science teaching practices. This research investigated mentoring for developing preservice teachers of primary science, which was divided into two stages. Stage 1 was concerned with the development of an instrument aimed at measuring preservice teachers' perceptions of their mentoring in primary science teaching. Stage 2 involved developing a mentoring intervention based on the literature and the instrument developed from Stage 1 of this research, and further investigated the influence of the intervention on mentoring practices. Stage 1 involved a survey instrument developed from the literature and a small qualitative study. This instrument was refined after pilot testing and then administered to 331 final year preservice teachers. Stage 2 involved pilot testing a mentoring intervention, which was then implemented with 12 final year preservice teachers and their mentors over a four-week professional experience (practicum). Using a two-group posttest only design, these 12 final year preservice teachers (intervention group) and 60 final year preservice teachers (control group) from the same university were compared after their four-week professional experience program. The survey instrument developed from Stage 1 was used to measure both the control group's and intervention group's perceptions of their mentoring in primary science teaching. Stage 1 results indicated that five factors characterised effective mentoring practices in primary science teaching and were supported by Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The final CFA model was theoretically and statistically significant, that is, X2(513) = 1335, p < .001, CMIDF = 2.60, IFI = .922, CFI = .921, RMR = .066, RMSEA = .070. These factors were Personal Attributes, System Requirements, Pedagogical Knowledge, Modelling, and Feedback, and had Cronbach alpha reliability coefficients of .93, .76, .94, .95, and .92, respectively. Stage 2 findings indicated that mentees involved in the intervention received statistically significant more mentoring experiences in primary science teaching on each of the 5 factors and on 31 of the 34 survey items. It was concluded that the mentoring intervention provided mentors and mentees with opportunities for developing their primary science teaching practices. Additionally, this approach simultaneously targets mentors and mentees' teaching practices and was considered economically viable.

Abstract:

During the past decade, direct instruction has been cited as one characteristic of effective schools. In response to increased accountability, many school districts and schools have incorporated the methods of direct instruction as a way to improve teaching performance and student achievement. This study was designed to determine if the teachers who were identified as effective would naturally practice the elements of direct teaching to a greater extent than less effective teachers where neither the effective nor the less effective teachers had been trained in specific models of direct instruction.<br>Ed.

Abstract:

This thesis reports a study of a group of Iranian young learners, their parents and language teachers on their perceptions of the characteristics of effective language teachers in public schools. The research methodology adopted was a mixed method and therefore, the first part of the study was conducted through a questionnaire survey of 190 students studying in the 8th grade of public schools in Iran. This was followed by interviews with a sample of these learners, their parents and their teachers. The data emerging from the study demonstrates that the stakeholders involved in this study hold perceptions across a wide range of areas concerning language teacher effectiveness including teachers’ language proficiency, class management and affective factors. There was some general agreement within and among the stakeholders’ views; however, at times the dimensions slightly varied. On the whole, the main concerns were related to teachers’ knowledge and ability to speak English and teachers’ willingness to insert activities beyond the prescribed syllabus in particular activities related to speaking skill, and also additional activities that would prepare the students for their exams. Teachers’ ability to build the right rapport with the students was also very much in demand. An unanticipated finding of this study was the perceived connection between teachers’ appearance and in particular the way they dressed and their effectiveness. Some discrepancies relating to how these should be actually practised in the class do exist. Finally, this thesis goes on to discuss some of the implications of these findings both for English language teaching in Iran and for future research. Although the findings of this study are not conclusive and not prescriptive, they reveal the importance of exploring the views of stakeholders to make language teaching a more pleasant experience for all, which can in turn lead to a more effective teaching and learning.

Abstract:

In the context of continuing growth in online higher education in the United States, students are struggling to succeed, as evidenced by lower course outcomes and lower retention rates in online courses in comparison with face-to-face courses. The problem identified for investigation is how university instructors can ensure that effective teaching and learning is happening in their online courses. The research questions were: What are the best practices of effective online teaching in higher education according to current research? How do exemplary online instructors enact teaching presence in higher education? What are the best practices of effective online teaching in higher education? The purpose of this descriptive case study was to understand and describe the teaching practices of exemplary online faculty, and “exemplary” was defined as recognized with a national award for effective online teaching form a non-profit organization within the last five years. A purposeful sampling strategy identified four exemplary online instructors, who taught in different disciplines at different institutions in the United States. Data collection included a pre-interview written reflection, a semi-structured telephone interview, examination of a course syllabus and other course materials, and observation of a course. Data analysis included repeated close reading and coding of all data collected and then reducing the codes to a manageable number of themes. Two key themes emerged in the findings: human connection and organized structure. Exemplary online instructors seek to connect with students so students know and feel the care, support, and respect of the instructor. Exemplary online instructors also maintain a clearly structured environment that is logically organized, delivered in small chunks, and sufficiently repetitive to keep each student focused on the content. These results contribute to the body of knowledge by allowing online faculty to learn from the best online faculty. First-time online faculty as well as online faculty who seek to improve their online pedagogy may be able to enhance teaching and learning in their courses, which in turn will hopefully yield higher student satisfaction and lower attrition in online education.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis paper is to explore the elements of effective teaching. The main research questions that are dealt with regard how teachers can establish themselves as authentic authorities in the classroom and what strategies are conducive to effective teaching. The thesis paper aims to identify specific strategies and techniques that can be employed to increase teachers’ authority and provide a learning environment conducive to cooperative, on-task learning.This investigation will be in the form of a case study of an eighth grade English teacher at a secondary school in southern Sweden. The case study consists of two parts: an in-class observation of six English lessons forms the basis for a follow-up semi-structured interview.This thesis highlights the importance of teachers’ ability to establish referent and expert authority in their teaching role.

Abstract:

Reforms in teacher evaluation are enacted to increase student achievement. Although there is research on teacher evaluation and teacher quality, there is little that addresses effective teaching as conceptualized in Danielson's Framework for Teaching, a commonly used evaluation tool. The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine which of the 4 domains and 76 elements of Danielson's framework are viewed by award-winning teachers as having the greatest impact on effective teaching and learning. Constructivism formed the theoretical basis for this study. The research questions examined to what extent state and national teachers of the year perceive differences in the importance to effective teaching and learning across each of Danielson's 4 domains and across the elements within those domains. A quantitative single-factor within-subject design was utilized. Framework for Teaching Survey importance ratings obtained from state teachers of the year for the past 6 years (N = 350) were compared using repeated measure one-way analysis of variances). Significant F values were followed by the Fisher Least Significant Difference Test to determine the domains or elements that significantly differ from one another. Significant differences in the importance ratings were obtained across each of the 4 domains. The instruction domain was rated most important followed by classroom environment, planning and preparation, and professional responsibilities. Findings may facilitate positive social change by enabling schools, districts, and states to more accurately evaluate teachers and devote limited professional development resources to domains and elements with the greatest potential for improving teacher quality.

Abstract:

Understanding the learner for more effective university Teaching. To teach students efficiently and effectively, it is helpful to understand their conceptions of teaching and learning. Given the higher proportion of school leavers entering Higher Education and greater undergraduate diversity, this is more imperative. With the greater likelihood of large class sizes, more formalised means of understanding students must be sought. Whilst using small group work as part of undergraduate teaching can help, some explicit attempts to collect profile information on students can help teachers offer better learning experiences. Student Expectation Research: The research programme started with a piece of action research (Stevenson, Sander and Naylor, 1996; Stevenson and Sander, 1998) with distance learning students, by collecting their expectations through both a telephone survey and a postal questionnaire. Action Research has very limited generalisability, but the principle of surveying students' expectations was promising and extended. The USET survey (Sander et al, 2000) found mismatches between the teaching that students hoped for and expected. Expectations do not have to be met, although there may be some merit in doing so (Stevenson, Sander and Naylor, 1997). Expectations may also be managed (Hill, 1995). One finding from the USET study was that different groups of students had different reasons for disliking student presentations, perhaps due to different levels of academic confidence. Students' reasons for disliking presentations were pursued through re-analysis of the USET qualitative data (Stevenson and Sand er, 2002, Sander and Stevenson, 2002). However, that students dislike presentations is worrying given their effectiveness (Sander, Sanders and Stevenson, 2OO2). Academic Confidence Research: To explore the possibility of a link between academic confidence and reasons for not liking student presentations, the Academic Confidence Scale was developed and validated (Sander and Sanders, 2003). ln addition to finding the hypothesised group differences in confidence, a startling drop in academic confidence during the first year was detected.

Abstract:

English language teaching has gone through a radical shift of emphasis in the last forty years, beginning with the communicative revolution in the mid-1970-s. The English language teachers are no longer all alone in their role as trainers as they are able to bring parts of the outside world to the classroom. Beyond the trainer’s “chalk and talk” and the trainees’ language and communication practice there is a range of materials in different media, which help the trainer to turn the Business English classroom into a varied learning/teaching environment. While printed text remains the most common training medium, both the ELT world and the non-ELT world give us access to a wide range of video and audio material, and increasingly multimedia.

Full text

Abstract:

Over the years, increasing numbers of schools have adopted inclusive education policies. Classroom teachers are responsible for providing support for all students including those with disabilities within their classrooms. However, there is a lack of classroom-level empirical evidence on effective inclusive teaching practices and their relationship to growth in student outcomes over the course of time. The main purposes of this study were to 1) examine the relationships between teachers' perceptions of inclusion and their teaching practices including adaptive teaching practices and 2) to explore the impact of each of these factors on student outcomes. The sample were 180 students in 15 grade 3 and 5 inclusive classrooms from English speaking schools in the Greater Region of Montreal, Quebec. Multiple forms of data including standardized student assessments, classroom observations and surveys provided triangulation of data. Results of partial correlations indicate that there is a relationship between teachers' perceptions of inclusion and their classroom teaching practices. Furthermore, Hierarchical Linear Modelling (HLM) analyses of the data suggested that classroom-level shared variance in several student outcome variables including both reading attainment and social-emotional domains were predicted by teachers' practices and attitudes towards inclusion after controlling for pre-test and grade levels. The attitudes, practices and student outcomes model describes both student-level and distinct classroom-level variance in reading fluency and social inclusion patterns. No significant findings for impact of associations between teachers' general and adapted practices and their attitudes towards inclusion on students with special needs were found. On the other hand, students with reading difficulties reported less incidents of verbal bullying victimization in classrooms of teachers with higher student engagement and predominant teaching styles. Limitations are discussed in light of general conceptual and methodological issues regarding inclusive education research. Implications of this study have the potential to shed light on the nature and quality of teacher training and support in inclusive education.<br>Au fil des ans, un nombre croissant d'écoles a adopté des politiques d'éducation inclusives. Les enseignants sont responsables d'apporter un soutien à tous les élèves au sein de leurs classes, y compris les élèves handicapés ou éprouvant des difficultés d'adaptation ou d'apprentissage. Cependant, les preuves empiriques concernant les pratiques d'enseignement efficaces relativement à l'inclusion scolaire ainsi que la relation existant entre ces pratiques et la croissance des résultats des élèves dans le temps sont insuffisantes. La présente étude visait donc principalement à 1) examiner la relation entre les perceptions des enseignants concernant l'inclusion scolaire et leurs pratiques pédagogiques, incluant les adaptations faites en classe et 2) à explorer l'impact de chacun de ces facteurs sur les résultats des élèves. L'échantillon était composé de 180 élèves, répartis dans 15 classes de 3e et 5e année d'écoles anglophones primaires de la région de Montréal (Québec). L'utilisation de plusieurs types de données, comprenant des évaluations standardisées, des grilles d'observation de la classe ainsi que des sondages a permis d'effectuer une triangulation des résultats. Les résultats des corrélations partielles démontrent qu'il existe une relation entre les perceptions des enseignants relativement à l'inclusion et leurs pratiques pédagogiques en classe. De plus, les analyses de modélisation linéaire hiérarchique (HLM) suggèrent qu'après avoir contrôlé le niveau scolaire et les scores au pré-test, la variance partagée concernant plusieurs variables relatives à la classe, incluant les domaines de la réussite en lecture et le développement socio-émotionnel, a été prédite par les pratiques pédagogiques des enseignants ainsi que leurs attitudes envers l'inclusion scolaire. Le modèle obtenu, basé sur les attitudes et les pratiques enseignantes ainsi que sur les résultats des élèves, suggère la présence de variance distincte, tant au niveau de l'élève et au niveau de la classe en ce qui a trait à la fluidité de lecture et aux pratiques d'inclusion. Aucun résultat significatif n'a été trouvé concernant l'impact de l'association entre les pratiques pédagogiques et d'adaptation des enseignants et leurs attitudes envers l'inclusion des élèves handicapés ou éprouvant des difficultés d'apprentissage. D'un autre côté, les élèves ayant des difficultés en lecture ont rapporté être victime de moins d'intimidation verbale lorsqu'ils faisaient partie des classes des enseignants dont les élèves avaient les plus haut taux d'engagement et des styles d'enseignement prédominants. Les limites de la présente recherche sont discutées à la lumière des questions méthodologiques et conceptuelles générales concernant la recherche sur l'éducation inclusive. Enfin, les résultats de cette étude sont susceptibles de fournir de l'information relativement à la nature et à la qualité de la formation des enseignants et au soutien nécessaire dans le cadre de l'inclusion scolaire.

Abstract:

The understanding of the scientific meaning of the concept of energy and the principle of the conservation of mechanical energy is affected by various connotations and meanings that the concept and principle have in everyday language use. Young children develop and formulate their own conceptual meanings and understanding of the concepts that often differ from the scientific meanings. These preconceived ideas are termed alternative conceptions of the learners. Learners associate the concept of energy with living and moving objects, in other words, the difficulties experienced by learners in comprehending the scientific concept of energy and its conservation are embedded in their anthropocentric and anthropomorphic views. Focusing on the nature and origins of these alternative conceptions held by learners, a literature study of contemporary constructivist teaching and learning strategies was conducted. The theoretical investigations led to an empirical study. A quantitative action research methodology was undertaken. Firstly, a questionnaire was designed and administered to grade 10 learners to diagnose their alternative conceptions about the concept of energy and the principle of conservation of energy. The results of the questionnaire were analyzed to determine the nature of the alternative conceptions held by the learners. Secondly, an intervention program was designed. During the intervention various factors that might contribute to learners' conceptualization of the concept of energy were exploited. Contemporary teaching-learning approaches and strategies, which are constructivist in nature, were used. Inquiry teaching was implemented through the 5E instructional model. The teaching and learning experiences were contextualized, i.e., they were designed using situations and experiences that were familiar to the learners. Thirdly, the success of the intervention to accomplish conceptual change was assessed. The analysis of the results of the empirical study shows a significant improvement of the learners' understanding of energy and its conservation. This was reflected in the calculated normalized learning gain of 68%. The results show the importance for teachers to continuously do active research on various aspects of the educational environment like learners' alternative conceptions, contemporary teaching-learning strategies and contextual factors that might influence effective teaching and learning.<br>Thesis (M.Ed.)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2009.

Abstract:

Schools often find problem behaviour difficult to address due to an overabundance of research and methods in this area. For a variety of reasons, wavering on this matter is based on multiple reform initiatives that compete and intersect. A solution to this indecisiveness finds a high proportion of adolescents, who are considered to be deviant by their teachers, excluded from mainstream classes and placed in alternative learning environments. These placements promise academic intervention, but tend to only address issues of self‐esteem through behaviour modification. As a result, these students remain in a skills‐deficit position that threatens their self‐esteem and provokes their original deviance. The study reported in this thesis considers this issue and its relationship to student voice. In so doing, it challenges exclusion as a way of addressing negative behaviour by looking at school experiences from the perspectives of students considered to be deviant to discover and examine the common places where they have found success.Bearing this argument in mind, this one-year study set out to find areas in a school in the United States that students labeled with a behaviour difficulty might identify as positive learning environments. The specific focus was designing and implementing a methodology that used action research to more accurately identify literature to address the specific needs and concerns of the students under scrutiny. It used school tours to help participants identify areas of success, as a basis for interviews, and as a direction for teacher observations. The voices of these marginalized students produced common categories that identified possible paths to reform. They were able to identify several successful components of lesson planning and general concerns that challenged the school’s culture. The implications of these findings are a significant step forward to what we know about the workings of inclusive classrooms, the teachers who find success in them, and how students come to be labeled with a behaviour difficulty.

Abstract:

Adult patient education is a major responsibility of registered dietitians. It is essential for registered dietitians to be effective adult educators as they teach adults in various employment settings. Review of the literature revealed that one important factor in being an effective adult educator is developing a teaching style which facilitates learning, known as learner-centered teaching style.The purpose of this descriptive study was to identify the teaching style preference and identify factors that have influenced registered dietitians' teaching style preference.The study sample of six hundred registered dietitians residing in the Midwest (Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin) were sent two tools to complete, the "Principles of Adult Learning Scale (PALS)". Two hundred and fifty-two respondents completed the questionnaire and PALS, designed by Conti to determine teaching style preference.The overall PALS scores were computer generated. Frequency distributions and populations percentages were calculated for demographic and descriptive data. The mean, median, and standard deviation of PALS scores were calculated. Analysis of various factors and the PALS scores.The findings suggest that registered dietitians' teaching style preference is teacher-centered. The years of employment positively affected teaching style toward learnercentered until the dietitian had been employed more than 16 years, then the years of employment negatively affected teaching style preference. The number of formal educational sessions relating to adult education had the most positive effect on teaching style preference. The number of continuing education session related to adult education proved to be the factor that most affected teaching style preferences.The study has implications for registered dietitians regarding dietetic education and curriculum development, continuing professional education and adult educators utilizing the PALS instrument. Further study is recommended using PALS with only entry-level dietitians and comparing PALS scores with actual classroom teaching behavior.<br>Department of Educational Leadership

Abstract:

Beginning school teachers in Indiana in school years 1986-87 and 1987-88 who graduated from Ball State University, Indiana State University, Indiana University, and Purdue University (D=1,607) were studied to determine the relationship of NTE Core Battery subtest scores, Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores, and undergraduate grade point average (GPA) to beginning teaching effectiveness as measured by the Beginning Teacher Assessment Inventory (BTAI). The BTAI is an inventory listing eight criteria for which a beginning teacher must demonstrate minimal competence in order to complete the Indiana internship requirement. Findings were based on an analysis of data obtained from 663 beginning teachers in 163 Indiana school corporations. No empirical evidence indicated that NTE Core Battery subtest scores provide useful information for predicting beginning teaching effectiveness. Undergraduate grade point average (GPA) provided more accurate predictions of beginning teaching effectiveness than did the NTE Core Batter subtests. The ability of Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores to possess a statistically significant relationship with values on the Beginning TeacherAssessment Inventory (BTAI) was not substantiated. Females systematically scored higher than males on the BTAI assessment areas. Results were consistent for graduates from all four major state universities in the study.<br>Department of Educational Leadership

Abstract:

<p> The search for effective teaching methods of Chican@/Latin@ students reached a new level of complexity when it was found that Chican@/Latin@ students who participated in the Mexican American/Raza Studies program (MARSD) in Tucson, Arizona were outperforming their White counterparts in academic achievement measures (Cabrera, Milem, Jaquette, & Marx, 2014). Rather than praise the MAS program and direct educational researchers to learn and replicate the effective teaching strategies of the program, powerful educational stakeholders sent lawyers and passed legislation HB 2281 which created the legal rationale to terminate the program (Cabrera et al., 2014). This raises the question: How serious are we as a society, including the field of Education, about closing achievement gaps and learning about effective teaching strategies of Chican@/Latin@ students? History may have the answer. </p><p> We know that the field of Education has historically failed Chican@/Latin@ students and other working class students of color in general (Duncan-Andrade, 2005b; Ladson-Billings, 1998; Noguera, Hurtado, & Fergus, 2013). Research in education of Chican@/Latin@/Chicano studies has extensive data illustrating school failure in the form of “drop out” or “push out” rates, low graduation rates, and low performance on academic achievement measures, for Chicano/a students (Luna & Revilla, 2013; Yosso, 2006). When you add that in places like California, Chican@/Latin@ students represent more than 53% of students enrolled in public schools, understanding how to effectively teach the largest demographic population becomes an ethical concern (California Department of Education, 2013-2014). </p><p> This study examines effective teaching of Chican@/Latin@ students in Hope Valley (pseudonym). I use survey instruments to ask Chican@/Latin@ college students from Hope Valley Community College to identify the most effective teachers in their K-12 experience. This form of community nomination is unique in the educational research in that it honors the pedagogical knowledge of young adults, rather than the conventional sources of knowledge (e.g., teachers, parents, scholars, and other educational researchers). The results of the survey lead me inside the classroom of these community nominated teachers, where I use ethnographic methods to learn about their efficacy as identified by their former students. This study asserts that a strengths-based community responsive approach to understanding effective teaching of Chican@/Latin@ students increases local capacity for community members and educational stakeholders to build on the unique pedagogical strengths of their own community.</p><p>
