Abstract: click to view

Research has long described the relationship between motivation to read and the success with reading that many students experience while others do not. The purpose of this study was to learn more about the reading motivation of 9th grade students so as to understand how this motivation or lack of motivation may be influencing course enrollment decisions. This work is important because research has repeatedly demonstrated how course enrollment decisions directly impact future academic and vocational success. However, this work has centered on motivation related to math and science coursework with a dearth of research focusing on reading motivation and language arts courses. Thus, understanding more about how students perceive themselves and their ability to be successful with reading can help educators and school counselors advise students appropriately so they are able to reach their full potential and academic trajectory. The expectancy-value theory (see Eccles et al., 1983) provided the foundation for this study which included an exploration of the four task values (attainment, cost, intrinsic motivation, and utility), and the expectancies for success (e.g., past experiences and reader identity) in relation to reading motivation and potential academic success.
In this quantitative study, a survey measuring reading motivation was administered to 9th graders (N = 118) attending a public high school. The survey allowed for a general overview of how these 9th graders viewed their motivation to read, which was based upon their reported expectancies and what they valued. Overall mean scores from the survey indicated the participants reported fairly high reading motivation. The results of a one-way ANOVA used to compare the item mean scores between the two groups indicated that there was a statistically significant difference between honors and general education students when it came to their reading motivation and specifically in the areas of wanting to get good grades, feeling it is worth the cost to do well in school, feeling successful at reading, understanding that reading is important, and seeing the usefulness of reading outside of school. A medium effect size was reported for each of these comparisons suggesting practical significance. Though these findings were not surprising what is surprising is that only five of the 13 items resulted in statistically significant differences between the two groups of students. These results suggest that students enrolled in both a general education and honors language arts course are more similar when it comes to reading motivation than different.
Next, we conducted a point biserial correlation to explore if there was a relationship between course enrollment decisions and reading motivation. The results indicated that the higher a student’s reading motivation score was on the survey, then the more likely the student was to enroll in an honors language arts course. These findings suggest that educators should consider finding ways to increase reading motivation in students to help them There also might be certain students who would benefit from encouragement to consider enrolling in an honors class but who might not see themselves as capable. Study findings also suggest a need for further explorations about how 9th graders see and value reading, how 9th graders are currently being encouraged and motivated to read, and how teachers, school leaders, and counselors can better support 9th graders as they make decisions about which courses to enroll in so that students may be able to reach their full academic and vocational potential.

Are we minding the gap? Examining teacher self-efficacy as teachers transition from preservice to full-time teaching

Abstract: click to view

Teacher self-efficacy is a construct that has been shown to be a great boon to teachers. Teachers demonstrating high levels of self-efficacy have been shown to provide greater patience with students who struggle and are willing to persist when things get difficult. Teacher self-efficacy has been examined with both preservice and inservice teachers. It has also been examined in a variety of contexts including schools and universities and in a variety of countries and settings. We do know that most teachers leave their training programs with strong teacher self-efficacy and that practicing teachers often demonstrate lower teacher self-effiacy than beginning teachers, but one area that has been largely ignored in the research literature is what happens as teachers leave their teacher training programs and begin teaching in a classroom of their own. Does their teacher self-efficacy remain high? What happens to teacher self-efficacy as individuals transition from being a teacher candidate to full-time teaching? What happens to teacher self-efficacy by the end of the first year of teaching? Understanding more about what happens to teacher self-efficacy during this important transition can help educators and researchers understand more closely how to support novice teachers and how best to train teachers as they transition to full-time teaching. The study outlined in this chapter investigated teacher self-efficacy at two distinct points in time: First, at the conclusion of teacher training and then again after these same individuals had completed a year of teaching. In this study, a multivariate and a repeated measures ANOVA (N = 502) was conducted to compare perceptions of teacher candidates on the same instructional tasks they are expected to perform in the classroom. Results indicated that overall, teacher candidates reported higher perceptions of their ability to perform instructional tasks at the conclusion of their student teaching than they did at the completion of the first year of teaching. Interestingly enough, the teacher candidates graduating with the lowest self-efficacy scores produced similar scores at both the preservice and inservice stage suggesting their self-efficacy scores remained consisted across the preservice and inservice teaching context. On the other hand, teacher candidates leaving their teacher training with higher self-efficacy scores often saw a greater drop in their teacher self-efficacy score by the end of their first year of teaching. These findings raise questions about what the recommended level of teacher self-efficacy scores should be at the end of teacher training. Are lower scores reflective of more realistic expectations and abilities? Are teacher candidates leaving the program with unrealistic expectations and in danger of burnout? Implications and recommendations based on these findings are outlined in the chapter.
