Abstract:
Although intercultural scholars examine the differences in cultural values, beliefs, and attitudes between the U.S. and China, few specifically have studied cultural differences between U.S. and Chinese university classrooms. This study examines behavioral differences exhibited by U.S. teachers in U.S. university classrooms and Chinese teachers in Chinese university classrooms. This research addresses three areas of significance. First, Chinese students studying in the U.S. who read this thesis may be better able to cope with the U.S. educational system and communicate more effectively with both U.S. students and teachers. Second, this research may help U.S. university teachers to better understand the Chinese culture and Chinese students. Third, this research may increase U.S. teachers' awareness of and sensitivity to the increasingly multicultural classroom environment in the U.S. Three male university teachers in the U.S. and three male university teachers in China were observed and videotaped in this study. The data analysis was guided by categories establish by Gudykunst (1988), Hofstede (1986), and Lieberman (1993) as behavioral indicators of cultural styles. Several interesting findings occurred among overall descriptive observation and qualitative accounts of observations. First, a powerful trend of behavioral differences exhibited in the classroom by U.S. university teachers and Chinese university teachers was found. The findings in this search strongly support findings by Gudykunst (1988), Hofstede (1986), and Lieberman (1993) that U.S. university teachers exhibited far more individualist/direct communication styles and small power distance/personal communication styles than Chinese teachers, while Chinese teachers exhibited more collectivist/indirect communication styles and large power distance/contextual communication styles than U.S. teachers. Second, the results of this research provide valuable insights for both U.S. university teachers and Chinese university teachers; that is, culture reflects teachers' and students' values, assumptions, and behaviors. U.S. culture reflects values, assumptions, and behaviors, such as individualism, direct communication styles, small power distance, and personal communication styles. However, Chinese culture reflects collectivism, indirect communication styles, large power distance, and contextual communication styles.

The purpose of my research is to identify what features of a graph are important for college teachers with the intention of eventually developing a system by which a machine can recognize those features. In particular, I identify the features that college algebra teachers look at when grading graphs of lines and how much disagreement there is in the relative importance graders assign to each feature. In the process, eleven students from college algebra classes were interviewed and asked to graph six linear functions of varying difficulty. Eleven experienced college algebra graders were asked to grade the selected graphs, and interviewed to clarify what features of the graphs were important to them in grading. Altogether, a general grading rule appears to be: slope is worth 4 points, y-intercept is worth 4 points, labeling of intercepts, points and graph is worth 1 point. After that, add 1 point if everything is correct. All graders considered slope and y-intercept to be very important. Only some of them considered labeling to be important. Anything else was a matter of a single point adjustment. Furthermore, the graders judged slope and intercept from two points(the y-intercept and the first point to the right). Returning to the students’ work, I saw that the students also placed extra importance on points to the right of the y-axis. I conclude that this grading style may have a role in students’ learning to think only about two points in a line (but nothing else), and that replicating human grading may not be the best use of machine grading.

Abstract:
Many academics become teachers without the help of formal professional learning. This study explores how a small group of academics have done this. The research aims to uncover the informal, experiential means whereby participants have constructed the knowledge about teaching and learning that underpins their pedagogies. The research begins with the assumption that three key elements play a major role in supporting academics' informal learning about teaching. These are a person's previous experiences of learning, their experience of being part of a particular academic environment and their personal or 'private' theories about teaching and learning, which are experientially based. Life narratives were collected from a small group of university teachers who participated in qualitative interviews and provided written evidence of their experiences, practices and philosophies of teaching. The research uses an ethnographic, interpretive approach to collect and analyse data in which participants' voices are foregrounded. The researcher's life narratives also form part of the final thesis, demonstrating an 'engaged' approach to research and providing explicit evidence of the researcher's positioning in relation to the subject matter of the thesis. The research reveals the importance for participants of a 'teaching self' or consistent identity that develops in early life and continues through to the adult professional context. This identity forms a basis for participants' teaching practices. The challenges experienced by participants when institutional practices do not support or help maintain this identity are discussed, as are the processes whereby participants seek out like-minded colleagues with whom to engage in 'professional conversations' about teaching. The research reveals strong connections between participants' sense of 'self' and the principles underpinning their pedagogies, and the thesis concludes with some suggestions about how the concept of the 'teaching self' might be used to support all teachers engaged in professional learning. Finally, the research advocates 'reflexivity' on the part of teachers, whereby a critical awareness of biography helps locate practice in the cultural and social environment in which it develops.

Poon, Tat Hong. "Community college students' perceptions of effective teachers." Thesis, University of Bristol, 2012. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.617597.

Abstract:
This mixed-methods study investigates community college students' perceptions of effective Teachers. This issue is critical as self-financing institutions which rely on students for their income may often fail to meet the needs and preference of their students due to a mismatch of both parties' perceptions of what constitutes an effective teacher. The study was conducted in two phases. In phase one, 468 students from a local community college were surveyed with the aid of the Teacher Behaviors Checklist (TBC) which asked them to identify factors that they believed to be most important for effective teachers. The quantitative data were collected and analyzed using descriptive statistics and statistical correlation. In phase two of the study, 18 recent graduates from the same community college were interviewed to gain a more detailed understanding of their perceptions concerning the most important characteristics for effective teachers. The qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The purpose of adopting more than one approach was to triangulate the findings ,obtained in this study and to follow up general statements which arose from the questioill13ire in more detail. Firstly, the results of this study generally supported the findings of Buskist et. a1. (2002) and Schaeffer et. al. (2003) by identifying the following as being the most important attributes of an effective teacher: knowledgeable about subject matter; effective communicators; and enthusiastic about teaching and their topics. In addition, being creative and interesting; well prepared; flexible/open-minded; approachable; having realistic expectations; providing constructive feedback; and presenting current information were also shown to be important behaviours of an effective teacher. The study revealed some evidence that the social and cultural backgrounds of the students could affect their perceptions. Secondly, results obtained from thematic analysis of the interview data suggested that the characteristics of effective teachers could be classified into four main themes: Technical skills, or the ability to deliver the subject content, and to make it feasible for the students to learn; Human skills, or the ability to interact with students and to build trust and assurance. These were seen as essential to motivate students and create their desirability to learn. A third theme included Knowledge skills, or the ability to organise, package-and then pitch the materials at the correct level for the students. The final theme, Social calibre or status refers to the academic or professional qualifications, research record and physical appearance of the teacher. Teachers who possess characteristics within these four themes were said to construct the proper learning environment that could facilitate students' learning and create an enjoyable learning experience. However, there was some evidence that this process was modulated by contextual factors which include gender, programme of study, trust-assurance and the reliance of individual students. These findings, therefore, argue that students emphasized both teaching competence and the ability to bu~1d relationships as being the most important characteristics of effective teachers. This being the case, trainers and administrators would be advised to prioritize these attributes in relation to the training and recruitment of teaching staff in community colleges within Hong Kong.

Majewska, Izabela Agata. "College Teachers' Perceptions about Teaching Global Competency." ScholarWorks, 2018. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/5750.

Full text
Abstract:
National and international organizations emphasize the importance of teaching global competence in American higher education as a way of preparing students for the rigors of a globalized workforce. Lack of nation-wide educational initiatives aimed at providing institutional guidelines for assessing international relations (IR) courses for this skill acquisition requires colleges to rely on their own resources and ingenuity. Presently, no course assessment methods for gauging global competency attainment exist at Florida College. The purpose of this study was to investigate faculty perceptions of instruction and learning of global competence. Mezirow's transformative learning theory was the conceptual framework that guided this study. The research questions for this study focused on teachers' perceptions of global competence instruction and student skill acquisition, their perceptions of the effectiveness of the INR 2002 Introduction to International Relations course in student global competence learning, and course advantages and disadvantages. An explorative case study design was used to capture the insights of 5 INR 2002 instructors, who have taught the course within the last three years, through individual 45-60-minute interviews. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the gathered data. INR 2002 teachers expressed moderate to high course effectiveness articulating a need for course improvement. The recommendations included the following: (a) create a departmental definition of global competence, (b) employ more classroom discussions into teaching IR, and (c) publish an international IR textbook communally working with non-American universities. This study may impact positive social change by supporting teachers' and administrators' efforts to advance the course curriculum to better equip students with knowledge, skills, and abilities needed for their professional futures.

Refe, Rymarczyk Jo-Michele. "College Teachers' Perceptions of Technology Professional Development." ScholarWorks, 2019. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/6654.

Full text
Abstract:
Community college faculty need to learn and understand the technology that is available in their classrooms so that they can teach students how to use these tools. Professional development workshops are one way that faculty members acquire knowledge of classroom technology. However, little is known about the usefulness of technology professional development workshops using active learning in a community college setting as a development option. The purpose of this qualitative study was to identify faculty members' perceptions and beliefs regarding technology professional development that incorporated active learning as a learning method. The conceptual framework included the concepts of transformative and active learning. Participants for this study included 5 faculty drawn from full-time, part-time, and adjunct faculty who registered for a technology professional development workshop featuring active learning at a community college in the U.S. Midwest. Data sources included interviews conducted before and after the workshop. Data were analyzed using NVivo software and inductive coding to identify patterns and themes. The findings of this study indicated that faculty prefer active learning to self-study or problem-based learning when learning technology because of the collaboration available within the workshop setting. This study contributes to social change because it provides insights on how teachers believe they best learn technology. Educational leaders can use this knowledge to maximize quality in future technology trainings.

Abstract:
This dissertation examines perceptions of faculty and administrators in Israeli institutions of higher education about their faculty evaluation programs, and compares them with perceptions of colleagues in comparable United States institutions. A written survey conducted among faculty and administrators in Israel was compared to similar data previously collected in the United States. Responses indicate that faculty roles are valued somewhat differently in Israel and the United States, but that faculty and administrators in both countries consider faculty evaluation to be important for the selection, promotion, tenure, and development of faculty. Yet, many are unclear about how the process of faculty evaluation operates and question whether it is always put to good use. Widely shared perceptions are that evaluation policies are often ambiguous and devoid of clearly articulated guiding principles; that evaluation procedures tend to lack consistency and fairness; and that their results do not always justify the effort. There is general agreement that the faculty evaluation process needs to be improved, but uncertainty about whether administrative support or resources could be elicited. Few believe that the evaluation is used efficiently to help faculty develop and improve their academic skills. The dissertation concludes with recommendations that might help remedy this situation.

Abstract:
In the Cape Colony, and then in South Africa generally, the twentieth century was to see the emergence, growth, and final closure of teacher training colleges. South Africa was one of the few Anglophone countries on the African Continent which, in 2003, did not have a separate and dedicated system of Teacher Education Colleges.1 From the 1920s on, there was a spirited debate over whether primary school teacher training was better achieved in the training college or the university. The publication of the National Education Amendment Act (No 73 of 1969) finally placed all teacher training, primary/elementary and secondary, within University Faculties of Education. The present study investigates the history of the Grahamstown Teacher Training College (GTTC) which was officially recognised in 1894 for the training of young white women. The GTTC was an independent college, founded and owned by an Anglican Religious Community for women, the Community of the Resurrection of Our Lord (CR), but it was also an Aided College of the Cape Education Department. As an Aided College, the GTTC was subject to Government Inspection annually, and the students wrote the official examinations set by the Department of Education. The College was run entirely by women and existed for 81 years. The emphasis in the college was on the practical professional training offered. The focus was on the ‘complete’ education of the student, rather than merely on the content of the curriculum. This study shows that the GTTC more than earned its reputation of being one of the finest training colleges in South Africa and that it was indeed a unique educational development. A feature of particular note was that the college was a trail-blazer, a pioneer in the field of education practices. It was the first college to introduce class music and class singing, the first to employ a physical education teacher, to have a full-time librarian and elocutionist, and it was at the GTTC that the assignment method of study was introduced. All these factors are highlighted in the course of this study.

Abstract:
This mixed-method study used a survey and semistructured interviews to learn how new Arizona community college teachers learned to teach, how available certain learning experiences and effective professional development activities were, how valuable teachers perceived those learning experiences and activities to be, and if there were any factors that underlie how new community college teachers learned to teach. The survey questioned whether 26 learning experiences were available to new community college teachers, and whether they had participated in professional development activities conducted using critical reflection, peer group conferencing, professional development cases, and active learning. All of these activities were available to the majority of new teachers except for professional development cases, which were available to only 38% of respondents. The perception of these community college teachers was that active learning, critical reflection, and peer group conferencing were more valuable than other more typical faculty development activities. The researcher expected that professional development cases would be rated more highly than typical faculty development activities; however, the survey respondents who reported participating in professional development cases rated them as equally valuable to other faculty development activities, but not higher. The researcher discovered six factors that underlie the process new Arizona community college teachers used to learn to teach. They were guidance from others, receptive communications, formalized teacher training, personal resources, experimentation and reflection, and student perspective. The process that new Arizona community college teachers used to learn to teach can be explained by the adult learning theory of transformative learning. They valued learning experiences that were reflective and applicable to the classroom. They benefitted from professional development activities that used the principles of transformative learning theory such as active learning, critical reflection, and peer group conferencing. Learning to teach was a process that included challenging and changing their assumptions about what happens in a community college classroom. They adjusted their assumptions and their teaching behaviors with time and experience.
