Abstract Details

2005, Master of Science and Education, University of Toledo, Educational Administration and Supervision.
This study sought to determine the prevalence of teacher-centered or student-centered beliefs and practices based on grade taught and years of experience. The most prevalent concepts related to student-centeredness were individualization, collaboration, high expectations, and meaningfulness. The least prevalent concepts were in assessments, interpersonal relationships, and relevance of content. Teachers with less than six years of experience had slightly higher mean scores than those with more than six years, with no statistically significant difference between their mean performances. Teachers who taught grades 7 – 12 also had slightly higher mean scores than those who taught grades K – 6. There was no statistically significant difference between their mean performances. The findings shed light on both experienced and less experienced teachers. It also poses a different way of looking at teachers, no matter the grade level they teach. More research should be conducted, with the possibility of extending the sample regionally and nationally.
