Book excerpt: Teachers’ attitudes have been a subject of study and interest for many years. Originally published in 1986, this bibliography attempts to review the large field of research between the years 1965 and 1984. To identify all the sources of information, and to list documents that discuss research on teachers’ attitudes. It does not include an assessment of the quality of the research reported in the listed documents, however, the value is in its comprehensiveness. Users of the bibliography can locate the listed studies and then evaluate the studies using criteria relevant to their individual purposes.

Book Exploring Teachers    Perceptions of Positive and Negative Attitudes Toward Teachers and the Teaching Profession

Download or read book Exploring Teachers Perceptions of Positive and Negative Attitudes Toward Teachers and the Teaching Profession written by Rachel Elizabeth Gaines and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the OECD (2014), only one-third of U.S. teachers reported that teaching was “valued” or “highly valued” by U.S. society. Still others have argued that teachers’ perceptions of negative attitudes may be exaggerated (Hargreaves et al., 2007). However, given widespread teacher turnover, along with decreasing enrollments in teacher preparation programs, examining teachers’ perceptions of attitudes toward their occupation likely would provide useful insight into these and related problems facing American schools. Guiding questions for this study addressed teachers’ perceptions of attitudes, contexts in which attitudes were perceived, teachers’ interpretations or responses to perceived attitudes, and differences in perceived attitudes between bioecological (Bronfenbrenner, 1999) and sociocultural contexts. Qualitative methodologies that drew on principles and procedures from grounded theory (Glaser & Strauss, 1967) were used. in all, 18 public school teachers (nine who taught in Massachusetts and nine who taught in Texas) were interviewed about attitudes they perceived in their interactions with various groups of individuals (e.g., friends, students, administrators), and attitudes embedded in more distal contexts (e.g., media, policy, culture). Based on analyses of these interviews, I found that teachers reported perceiving four types of positive (i.e., appreciative, respectful, trusting/supportive, occupational) and negative (i.e., adversarial, demeaning, unprofessional, stereotypes) attitudes toward teaching. These attitudes were perceived in interactions across eight bioecological contexts that ranged from the interpersonal (e.g., adversarial attitudes in interactions with students’ parents; positive occupational attitudes in interactions with friends and family) to the societal (e.g., stereotypes of teachers in the media, demeaning attitudes imbedded in U.S. culture). I also found that teachers perceived different attitudes despite having similar experiences. For example, a number of teachers described experiences in which non-teachers expressed that they “could never be a teacher.” A number of participants interpreted such statements as respectful, yet others perceived them as demeaning or expressed ambivalence about the attitudes perceived in such statements. Finally, I identified bioecological and sociocultural differences between teachers that appeared to correspond with variation in perceptions of attitudes toward teaching. These findings have implications for improving school climate and for supporting preservice teachers, as they reflect on their expectations of themselves as future teachers.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this mixed method, multisite case study was to explore how teachers' attitudes toward their work were influenced by their experiences within collaborative work groups. The critical elements and structural conditions of effective collaborative work groups described by Little in 1981 was used as a conceptual framework. The sample consisted of three principals, one school counselor, and twenty-seven teachers across three high schools in the same southeastern state. Participants were interviewed and their collaborative work groups observed during which time artifacts were also collected. Findings indicated teachers' attitudes toward their work were influenced by eight variables: the support they received from their administrative team, their perception of the administration's consistency and values, their relationship with their principal, the behaviors of their coworkers, their experiences with teacher collaboration, the internal feelings they had about teaching, and the external forces that affected their careers. While these eight variables were relatively consistent across the three schools, the extent to which principals supported the structural conditions of effective collaborative work groups varied. There was also variance in the schools' adherence to the critical elements and structural conditions of effective collaborative work groups which coincided with teachers' overall attitudes toward their work. Teachers working at the school with greatest adherence exhibited the most positive attitudes, and teachers working at the school with least adherence exhibited the least positive attitudes. More so than collaborative experiences alone, teachers' attitudes toward their work were primarily influenced by the relationships they held with their peers, students, and administrators. The findings of this study indicate that strong, positive relationships among teachers and between faculty and administrators create a mutual trust and respect that is not only necessary for collaboration to be effective but also provides a foundation from which teachers can grow professionally. Furthermore, when teachers use those professional interactions to influence organizational change, their pride, sense of empowerment, and loyalty to their school, students, and leaders is solidified.
