Abstract:

Very little research has been conducted on understanding the factors that contribute to teachers’ Praxis III scores, a measure of classroom teaching performance. Given this, the objective of this conference proposal is to present results of a recent research study that looked at contextual variables that impact teacher’s test scores on Praxis III. In particular, first year teachers in the State of Ohio for the 2004-2005, 2005-2006, and 2006-2007 academic years, through a state wide project, were surveyed on their perceptions of teacher preparation program as well as the current experiences as first year teachers. They were asked about the (1) quality and coherence of their teacher education program, (2) the level of support received from mentors, (3) contextual information related to the school building from which they are employed (i.e., trust in principals and resources available), (4) as well as their perceived self and collective efficacy. The focus here is on how these experiences and perceptions impact their collective and self efficacy which in turn impacts how well they do on their Praxis III assessment.
