Abstract:
The main purpose of this study is to assess pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) of in-service physics teachers about electricity topic in high school level by developing a paper-and-pencil instrument consisting of open-ended items. The instrument was developed with four different implementations by administration to the 278 in-service physics teachers. An exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis including only PCK items was conducted in validation processes. The relations among teachers&rsquo
job satisfaction levels, perceived self-efficacy levels, years of teaching experience and specific experiences, attendance to in-service training seminars related to physics teaching programs and teachers&rsquo
PCK were also analyzed by a confirmatory structural equation modeling study in validation of test scores. SPSS and AMOS programs were used in the analyses. Results of the study showed that teachers&rsquo
perceived self-efficacy level, attendance to in-service training seminars and specific experiences were significant predictors of their PCK. Teachers&rsquo
years of teaching experience and job satisfaction level were not significant predictors of their PCK. Inter-rater reliability scores were calculated as 0.86 and 78% for scoring and coding of the participant teachers&rsquo
responses respectively. Results also showed that there are many Turkish physics teachers whose PCK scores regarding students&rsquo
learning difficulties and misconceptions are below the average and participants mostly prefer to implement direct instruction in their classrooms as the instructional strategy.

Abstract:
The research reported in this thesis investigated perceptions about the nature and purpose of religious education of parents and teachers in a study of one Catholic secondary school in regional Victoria, Australia. In the research project data were collected using questionnaires and interviews from parents and teachers of religious education associated with the particular secondary school. These data were analysed and interpreted against a spectrum of purposes for religious education that were drawn from the literature. The literature reviewed included documents relevant to religious education from the Catholic Church since the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) and also from theorists in the field of religious education both from Australia and beyond. The theories about religious education generated by the literature review provided a framework within which to compare and contrast how the parents and the teachers understood religious education. While all of the religious education teachers took part in the research, the parents self-selected. This meant that those who responded were mostly Catholic from a school where there were 23% of families with no Catholic parent. A decision was made to focus this study on the new Catholic religious education guidelines, since this was seen to be essential because of the mandation by the bishop and Catholic Education Office of the Diocese of Ballarat. All parents were invited to respond, but mostly Catholic parent did. It was discovered that the parents and the teachers were in agreement in relation to most areas of religious education, especially in areas associated with values, morality, individual spirituality and what might be termed 'religious literacy'. Parents and teachers were shown to have different attitudes towards religious education in the senior school.;The data also highlighted the importance of the role of the teachers and school in providing religious education for families who have become distanced from traditional religious institutions. Many of the parents endorsed the school as the primary place for their children to receive information about religion, and chose to distance themselves from the religious education process in favour of allowing the 'experts' at the school to take on this role on behalf of the family. The thesis raised issues for the ways in which the school communicated with parents, both in terminology and technology. Overall, the findings affirmed the work of the teachers in religious education by parents who were 'time poor' and who wished to see the school take on the primary role of educating the children about religion, with expectations that the children would be fully exposed to the Catholic religious tradition in its teachings, ethics, liturgy and social justice practices.

Abstract:
Demands associated with the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 contribute to the risk of teacher burnout; however, the relationship between teacher burnout and specific teaching assignments is unclear. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to investigate if burnout is greater for high-stakes subject area public high school teachers than for low-stakes subject area public high school teachers and to ascertain teachers' perceptions about difficulties associated with teaching a high-stakes subject area. The job demands-resources model and the multidimensional model of burnout provided the theoretical framework. The concurrent mixed methods design included quantitative tests of differences in burnout scores of 87 Maryland public high school teachers across high-stakes and low-stakes subject areas, and the qualitative research question documented perceptions. The Maslach Burnout Inventory---Educators Survey measured burnout, and although high-stakes teachers reported greater burnout, chi-square and independent sample t-test did not confirm statistically significant differences across subject area. Qualitative data underwent coding into emergent burnout-related themes that were reanalyzed and revised to explain teacher perceptions. Analysis of teacher responses yielded 5 domains that affected burnout: workload/time incompatibility, pressure on teachers for students to pass high-stakes tests, need for all stakeholders to take responsibility, diminished teacher autonomy, and lack of resources. Recommendations include addressing teacher workload and sharing educational responsibilities among all stakeholders. Because burnout is an organizational issue, positive social change is achievable if administrators promote positive coping strategies and include teachers in the change process necessary to achieve the goals of No Child Left Behind.

Full text
Abstract:
Principals are the main evaluators of beginning teachers. This study examines principals' perceptions of the policies, procedures, processes and instruments they employ in evaluating the competencies of first-year teachers. The study is based on data collected from interviews with 11 high school principals in two Canadian prairie urban school divisions. Results indicate that the principals in the sample are satisfied with the overall efficacy of the evaluation process, as well as the detailed evaluation instruments and timelines for evaluation used in their school divisions. One of the two divisions provides a mentoring program for new teachers, and the principals in that division view the program very favorably. On the other hand, the principals in this study also expressed concerns about several aspects of evaluation. Principals' concerns focused primarily on having too little time to spend observing and subsequently meeting with new teachers as part of the evaluation process.

Full text
Abstract:

This study sought to uncover teacher perceptions of social capital within a high school mathematics department utilizing a research design that acknowledged the complex environment faced by high school teachers and their subsequent interpretations of how and from whom they sought access to professional resources. Through an analysis of narratives captured as teachers interviewed one another in strong-tie pairs, the study identified the elements of social capital which were central to the professional lives of high school mathematics teachers. Narrative analysis revealed that the group, situated in an urban setting, was able to define issues around trust and structure within their network. There was significantly less discussion or acknowledgement of the remaining dimensions of social capital: level of professional expertise within their group, and the depth or content of their professional interactions. Teachers had no vocabulary, interactional routines, norms or other tools to assist in the analysis of these key social capital resources.

The study found that there is a need for an additional dimension to be included in existing social capital models. Defined as “Group Self-Knowledge”, I describe this construct as a way for teacher networks to detect, define and assess their own capacity for change and innovation. The ability of a network to assess its social capital is described as necessary in determining specific needs for professional development resources, and in aligning those needs with the resources (physical, human or social capital) that are most likely to lead to conditions in which a network could learn, adapt, grow and change. Social capital models offer constructs which can assist in social capital analysis, and which could lead to significant impacts on educational organizations: a "systems" view that privileges the knowledge of the group and disrupts teachers' tendency towards individualism, presentism and conservatism (Lortie, 1975); an expectation of professionalism, creativity and problem-solving from the teachers within the system; a shift away from a deficit model of teaching towards a vision of educational systems as collections of assets; and an educational model that operates from a standpoint of reinvestment and re-cycling of vital resources back into itself.

Abstract:
Within the literature, a gap exists in understanding how teacher perceptions may be used to develop, implement, and evaluate professional development. The purpose of the qualitative case study was to describe the perceptions of middle and high school teachers regarding their professional development experiences in a rural school district in Florida. Guided by Chen and Chang's whole teacher framework and Knowles's theory of adult learning, the research questions addressed teachers' needs, expectations, and perceptions of professional development. Triangulated data sources included face-to-face interviews with 10 teachers, participant journals, and professional development agendas. Data analysis included line-by-line coding, open coding, and theoretical coding. Emerging themes were (a) effective and meaningful professional development, (b) teacher contributions to professional development, (c) teacher perceptions of professional development, and (d) student achievement due to professional development. Results indicated that although teachers perceive professional development as a tool for learning, teacher leadership, analysis of student achievement data, and collaboration are needed to increase its effectiveness. This study may contribute to positive social change by improving professional development practices in school districts, leading to enhanced student academic achievement and preparation for careers.

Teachers occupy a special and high role in our traditional culture. However, due to recent westernization, the role of teachers as mentors and fathers has tended to become more like professionals and laborers. Upon the enactment of Teachers’ Act in 1995, teachers in Taiwan began to own the right of organizing associations, although there is still some significant gap from labor unions. This research studies how the teachers participate in the teacher’s association and the recognition and intention of teachers in joining the teachers’ unions. Teachers’ unions, as yet illegal, is a process of social movement, in which mobilization of members, resources and ideology, and the solidarity of members, are all crucial for the possible success of Teachers’ Unions. Adopting the methods of questionnaires and in-depth interviews, using teachers from two comprehensive high schools in Kaohsiung area as samples, this research applies for SPSS, and use statistic methods such as descriptive statistics, t-test, correlations, one-way ANOVA, chi-square test, reliability test, factor analysis and logistic regression, to examine how demographic attributes, teachers’ cognition on their roles, teachers’ cognition about the functions of Teachers’ Association and Teachers’ Union, as well as teachers’ cognition on the Labor Act, on their intention of joining Teachers’ Union. The results show that, being a member of the Teachers’ Association is the most important and consistent predictor of teachers’ intention in joining the Teachers’ Union. As for the impact of teachers’ cognition on their role, contrary to traditional knowledge, those who see teachers as more of “sacred teachers” tend more likely to join Teachers’ Union. Those who consider ‘rights protection’ and ‘professional image’ as important functions of Teachers’ Association, tend more likely to join the Teachers’ Union, whereas no impact was found on the function of ‘strike’. On the other hand, teachers’ perspective on the functions of Teachers’ Association has no any impact on their intention of joining Teachers’ Union. Finally, teachers who see ‘the right of negotiation’ and ‘the right of strike’ as more important for the Teachers’ Union, tend more likely to join the Teachers’ Union.

Abstract:
To support the professional knowledge development of all teachers, schools in North America have implemented teacher-leader roles (Angelle & DeHart, 2011; Fullan, 2003; Leithwood, Harris, & Hopkins, 2008). The effectiveness of developing professional knowledge depends upon numerous variables such as school culture, collaborative environments, resources, and organizational paradigms. It follows, then, that understanding what influences teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership can determine best practices of implementing teacher-leader roles within schools and across school divisions. The literature reviewed in this study falls into four main categories: School culture, Distributed Leadership as Teacher-Leadership, Teacher-Leader Roles, and Teachers’ Perceptions of Teacher-Leadership. Furthermore, the purpose of this study was to investigate high school teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership. Research, using a quantitative instrument, focused on conducting an inquiry into teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership and what influences teachers’ perceptions. The study investigated the differences in perceptions according to these specific considerations: attained education level, teaching experience, formal teacher-leader roles, and gender. The primary objective of this research was to investigate the differences in high-school teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership within the context of one Saskatchewan urban school division according to educators’ attained education level, teaching experience, formal teacher-leader roles, and gender. To that end, the study investigated teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership based on four factors of teacher-leadership: supra-practitioner, sharing expertise, sharing leadership, and principal selection (Angelle & DeHart, 2011). Moreover, the following research questions previously referred to helped sharpen the focus of the study: 1. What are the differences in teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership according to different degree levels attained? 2. What are the differences in teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership according to varying teaching experience? 3. What are the differences in teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership according to teachers who occupy formal teacher-leader roles compared to those who do not occupy formal teacher-leader roles? 4. What are the differences in teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership according to gender? This study used a quantitative methodology to examine high school teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership through Angelle and DeHart’s (2012) Teacher Leadership Inventory resulting in empirical evidence collected via one-way between-groups ANOVA- the results of which provided both descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics indicated the spread of scores through variance, standard deviation, and range while describing independent and dependent variables (Creswell, 2012). Inferential statistics helped to “compare groups or related two or more variables” (p. 187). Independent variable of the study included; degree level attainment, years of teaching experience, occupying a position of formal teacher-leadership, and gender. Furthermore, the dependent variables included Sharing Expertise, Sharing Leadership, Supra-Practitioner and Principal Selection. The findings of the data showed statistical difference in the dependent variables Sharing Expertise and Sharing Leadership. As a result of this study, implications for theory include whether the TLI needs to consider a Canadian context. In addition, implications of practice revealed in this study supported the use of the Teacher Leadership Inventory (Angelle and DeHart, 2012) as a possible screening instrument for teachers’ perceptions of teacher-leadership. Finally, implications for further research; this is the second study to use the Teacher Leadership Inventory, as such, it will be beneficial to use the TLI in more applications to collect additional data and to identify norms for the instrument.

Abstract The essay is an analysis of telling stories.Its purpose goes along three female high school teachers’ career development and triest explore the various concepts on both their pressure and expectation with which they have been bombarded because of jobs,pupils,multiple-roles and vital accidents in their life. The vision from the essay indicates that a majority of career women have burned the candle at both ends even though the modern society offers them good opportunities of education and thus they can work and get well-paid. Epecially in 40s,50s,and 60s age-the early poor age in Taiwan,most intelligent women had no other choice but to enter Teachers’ Colleges for further study. Finishing teacher’s training these women start working as teachers,get married,and then suffer between the new family and their jobs. Therefore,they get mental health problems. The essay encourages the female teachers to make the record on their own experiences to create their own stories. And thus,they may achieve awakenness of sex consciousness,break the traditional thoughts on female sex,and then contribute the sex equality education. They are expected to lead the students to the elder’s life way,teach them to know other people and themselves as well through listening and writing life stories. We hope the students may build the right attutuade toward life values. We suggest sincerely our educational authorities should concerntiate on not only the students’ mental health but also the teachers’.

This study aims to investigate the constructivist beliefs of high school computer teachers and how their background (such as gender, age, college major, and years of teaching computer courses) may affect their beliefs. The constructivist beliefs of teachers were examined from six dimensions: personal relevance, uncertainty, critical voice, shared control- teaching, shared control- learning, and student negotiation. A questionnaire designed to survey the constructivist beliefs of teachers was distributed to twenty-two computer teachers from thirteen public high schools in Taipei City. To further understand if there are differences between what teachers self-reported in the questionnaire and what their students actually perceived was also conducted to a class of students. Following the questionnaire survey, classroom observations and interviews were carried out to clarify questions that had emerged from the preliminary questionnaire analysis results. The analysis of the questionnaires suggested that the beliefs of computer teachers occupied over the middle ground of the constructivism, except in shared control- teaching, that both the teachers and their students considered teachers less constructivism in sharing power with students in planning instructional contents and activities. The differences found was in two dimensions, which were the personal relevance and shared control- teaching. Classroom observations and interview data revealed that the discrepancy in personal relevance could be due to the fact that teachers tended to illustrate course materials from their personal experience, rather than from students’ perspectives. The discrepancy in shared control- teaching could be due to the traditional culture of respecting teachers, which made students be more inclined to accept what teachers planned for them. The teachers’ constructivist beliefs were influenced by gender differences. Female teachers would emphasize more on teaching the science nature than the male teachers; and that students were more like to share their learning situations with female teachers than male teachers.

The study aims to investigate the efficacy of senior high school teachers in Taichung through documentary analysis and self-efficacy scales, sampling 226 teachers. Our findings are as followed. First, teaching strategies demonstrate the internal efficacy of a teacher as well as the implementation of IEP and a teacher’s acceptance toward students. On the other hand, good teacher-student interaction shows the external efficacy at the highest level compared to parent-teacher communication and teaching proficiency. Second, if teachers have background in special education, administrative experiences, and the experiences of teaching in an inclusive classroom, they will demonstrate higher levels of internal efficacy. Third, background in special education, experience in administration, experiences of teaching in an inclusive classroom, years of teaching, the area of teaching, and the personal experience of interacting with students of disabilities are important factors that influence teachers’ external efficacy. Fourth, implementation of IEP, teaching strategies, and acceptance toward students are correlated with good parent-teacher communication, teacher proficiency and good teacher-student interaction. The above findings are discussed with possible implications for policy-makers, schools, and teacher educators for implementation of inclusive education in the future.

ABSTRACT This empirical study is intended to investigate how junior high school English teachers instruct reading in their teaching of English. A questionnaire containing a variety of reading activities that might be applied in reading classes was developed in this study and distributed to all the 353 junior high school English teachers in Taichung City. There were thirty questions in the questionnaire which stood for bottom-up/text-based, top-down/reader-based, and interactive applications respectively to elicit the frequency of the adoption of each activity in reading classes. The results revealed that the majority of the subjects in this study were no longer merely traditional bottom-up/text-based teachers. Instead, they had dual or multiple orientations in their reading instructions. On the other hand, top-down/reader-based applications were still not very prevalent in reading classes. Factors that might affect the subjects’ application of their reading instructions were discussed, including the implementation of the Basic Competency Test, the publication of the new versions of textbooks, and the subjects’ demographic information--gender, years of teaching, the kind of school they taught at (public or private), educational background, and whether they had majored in English. Besides, based on these findings, some suggestions were made not only to junior high school English teachers, but also to institutions of teacher education, secondary school authorities, and textbook writers and publishers with the aim of achieving a more effective and efficient reading instruction in junior high school.

From the deregulation of education to decentralization, the direction of school education has begun to change. Parents are more active to join the school or class affairs, and the school-based curriculum also makes the expectations of the homeroom teachers from the society diverse. In the front line of education, the homeroom teachers should reflect their education beliefs according to the social trends and use flexible class strategies to achieve educational goals. In this study, we use the "Combine Junior High School Teachers’ Belief Scale" and the "Combine Junior High School Teachers’ Class Management Strategy Scale" as a research tool. Through the questionnaire survey, we explore the status and relevance of the teachers' beliefs and class management strategies. A total of 336 questionnaires were delivered. 295 were collected, and there were 291 valid questionnaires. The data were analyzed by SPSS statistical software. Descriptive statistical analysis, t test, one-way ANOVA and Pearson's productmoment correlation were used in the research. The results were summarized as below: 1. Junior high school mentor teachers in Taichung City are inclined to humanity orientation, but they disagree with the negative alienation beliefs. 2. In Combined high School in Taichung City, the current situation of junior high school mentor teachers’ class management is good. They value the class regulations and the building of orders the most.
