Abstract
ABSTRACT As the number of culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) students increases, teachers need to leverage their professional capacity to be responsive and inclusive in their teaching. However, many teachers feel unprepared to work effectively with CLD students. In our study, we present evidence for a self-efficacy scale that measures teachers’ confidence in enacting culturally and linguistically relevant pedagogy (CLRP). We then explore the relative contributions of teachers’ self-efficacy to enact CLRP. The results suggest that CLRP self-efficacy positively predicted teachers’ advocacy for and engagement with families and community, and teachers’ teaching and assessment of CLD students.
期刊介绍:
Teaching Education is an interdisciplinary forum for innovative practices and research in teacher education. Submission of manuscripts from educational researchers, teacher educators and practicing teachers is encouraged. Contributions are invited which address social and cultural, practical and theoretical aspects of teacher education in university-, college-, and school-based contexts. The journal’s focus is on the challenges and possibilities of rapid social and cultural change for teacher education and, more broadly, for the transformation of education. These challenges include: the impact of new cultures and globalisation on curriculum and pedagogy; new collaborations and partnerships between universities, schools and other social service agencies; the consequences of new community and family configurations for teachers’ work; generational and cultural change in schools and teacher education institutions; new technologies and education; and the impact of higher education policy and funding on teacher education. Manuscripts addressing critical and theory-based research or scholarly reflections and debate on contemporary issues related to teacher education, will be considered. Papers should attempt to present research, innovative theoretical and/or practical insights in relevant current literature and debate.
