This book was released on 2012 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research explores student perceptions of teacher and adult caring behaviors. It seeks to determine the extent that middle school students feel cared for by teachers and other adults in school and to identify specific student perceived adult caring and non-caring behaviors. Research methods include the creation and administration of a three-question survey administered to school students (grades 7and 8) who attend an upper Midwestern middle school. Survey results are interpreted referencing attachment and self-systems theory. Research findings suggest that teachers must focus on and address both academic and personal needs to create meaningful teacher-student relationships that are perceived by students as caring.

Download or read book Teacher Empathy and Middle School Students' Perception of Care written by Dawn Michelle Williams and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-06 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the implementation of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (2002) schools are challenged by high-stakes testing and the need to maintain a highly qualified teaching force. The focus of discussion is often effective interventions and strategies to assist students to become academically successful. However, a number of researchers (Kaplan & Owings, 2000; Kohn, 2005; Noddings, 1995a, 2005c) have agreed that there is more to teaching and learning than is represented by scores on a single test. Authors such as Noddings (1984, 2005b) and Kohn (1990, 2005) have discussed the importance of an ethic of care in the academic success of students. An explanatory mixed method design was chosen for this research because the use of both quantitative and qualitative data resulted in a better understanding of the research problem (Creswell & Clark, 2007). In phase one of this study, an ordinary least square regression technique was used to determine the relationship between the level of teacher empathy and their students' perception of care. In phase two, the researcher completed a line-by-line analysis of all qualitative data to determine emergent categories and themes. Results of the study revealed the importance of empathy in creating a caring classroom environment and challenging teacher educators to provide training and field experiences that promote and enhance empathy and care in the classroom.

Download or read book The Role of interest in Learning and Development written by K. Ann Renninger and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest is just emerging as a critical bridge between cognitive and affective issues in both learning and development. This developing "interest" in interest appears to be linked to an increasing concern for studying the individual in context, examining affective variables as opposed to purely structural features of text, analyzing the interrelationship of cognitive and social development, understanding practical applications of theories of motivation, and recognizing the importance of developmental psychology for the study of learning. This book addresses both how individual interest and interest inherent in stimuli (books, text, toys, etc.) across subjects affect cognitive performance. While the book's particular emphasis is on theory-driven research, each of the contributing authors offers a unique perspective on understanding interest and its effects on learning and development. As such, each has contributed a chapter in which particular questions in interest research are described and linked to a clearly stated theoretical perspective and recent findings. Relevant material from the broader literatures of psychology and education are analyzed in the context of these discussions. In addition, the introductory and concluding chapters build on the contributions to the volume by providing the basis of a coherent view of interest across genres such as stories and expository text, and domains as varied as play, reading, and mathematics.

Download or read book Parent and Teacher Perceptions of Middle School Transitional Expectations and Concerns written by Richard John Hoyson and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is evidence that demonstrates the important role both parents and teachers play in the successful transition of children to middle school. While there is significant research into how both impact student success, there is a paucity of research into what teachers perceive parents believe are the expectations and concerns of their child as they transition to middle school. The purpose of this study was to use descriptive statistics obtained from surveys to explore what parents believed were the expectations and concerns of their child regarding the upcoming transition to middle school. Additionally, the study examined what teachers perceived parents believed their child's expectations and concerns were as they were about to transition to middle school. Finally, a comparison was done to find similarities and differences between the two groups. A survey was administered to 72 parents attending a new school orientation for incoming middle school students at a small rural school in Ohio. The same survey was administered to 16 middle school teaching staff members from the school the students would be attending. Parents and teachers identified both perceived academic and social concerns of children about to enter middle school. This included concerns such as getting good grades and having hard teachers as well as participating in social events and extracurricular activities. Both parents and teachers tended to have a holistic view of the identified items of excitement and worry concerning the transition to middle school. This indicated there was no major focus on overall academic or social concerns regarding the transition to middle school but rather a concern for the overall wellbeing of the student which is an important factor in establishing a successful school climate and dealing with the stresses faced by middle school students today.

Download or read book Urban Middle School Students' Perceptions of Math and Science Teachers' Caring Behaviors and Students' Self Reports of Academic Competence written by Brenda Rhyne and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This research examines urban middle school students' perceptions of their math and science teachers' behaviors. Specific caring behaviors (challenging questions, encouragement and praise, non-verbal support, understanding and friendly, and controlling -- which refer to teacher's expectations for classroom behavior) were evaluated by 101 students (72 girls and 29 boys) in grades 7, 8, and 9 by means of a survey instrument. Research findings support earlier investigations confirming that boys and girls interpret teacher friendliness differently. However, both male and female students reported similar perceptions of their teachers' behaviors with respect to praise, non-verbal support, and controlling. In addition, a strong correlation existed between students' perceptions of teachers' behaviors and student self reports of academic competence"--Abstract.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative cross-analysis case study examined the unheard voices of middle school students to report their perceptions of caring in their schools. This study utilized focus group interviews to allow thirty-one middle school students from two rural school districts in Southeast Texas the opportunity to discuss attributes of caring they perceive as important for schools. A male student group and a female student group from each school were interviewed to allow a wide range of perceptions from the students. The interviews were analyzed and coded for common themes. The twelve common themes that emerged from the interviews were: characteristics of caring teachers; attributes of a caring principal; trust; respect; motivation; high expectations; the classroom environment; safety; equity; connectedness; voice; and the need for change. Four other isolated themes emerged: friendship; family; support; and relationships between students. The voices of the student participants present an honest and insightful dialogue on the topic of caring in two rural public middle schools.

Book excerpt: This qualitative study on teacher's perceptions of social studies and possible causes of marginalization of the content is intended to add to the existing research pertaining to social studies' education. The data from the study can further address gaps in the literature relating to issues that impact social studies. The study took place at a middle school in rural southwest Georgia. Semi-structured interviews were used in this qualitative study to gather information rich data from eight middle school social studies teachers. An interview protocol was developed and used during the interview phase of the study. Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using a qualitative software program, QDA Minor Lite. The study produced mixed results, yet the participants agree that there are issues impacting the teaching of social studies. The researcher suggested the need for further studies pertaining to issues that impact social studies.
