Book A Comparison of Team Efficacy Measures and Their Predictiveness of Performance

Download or read book A Comparison of Team Efficacy Measures and Their Predictiveness of Performance written by Kanika Renee Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: This research examined the validity of group potency as a stronger predictor of group effectiveness than aggregated self-efficacy and collective efficacy. Past research suggests that group potency is a more appropriate group-level measure than measures that are aimed at the individual level of analysis. Group potency, aggregated self-efficacy, collective efficacy levels and effectiveness ratings of 71 change management teams were measured. Sources of effectiveness ratings included team self-ratings, external manager ratings, and customer ratings. Results yielded some interesting trends that point to a positive relationship between team potency and team effectiveness. However, the hypotheses were not supported. Theoretical assumptions of group potency are challenged. Recommendations for future research and practical applications are discussed.

Collective efficacy (CE)—the belief that, through collective actions, educators can influence student outcomes and increase achievement. Educators with high efficacy show greater effort and persistence, willingness to try new teaching approaches, and attend more closely to struggling students’ needs.

Book Visible Learning

  • Author : John Hattie
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2008-11-19
  • ISBN : 1134024126
  • Pages : 389 pages

Download or read book Visible Learning written by John Hattie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-11-19 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique and ground-breaking book is the result of 15 years research and synthesises over 800 meta-analyses on the influences on achievement in school-aged students. It builds a story about the power of teachers, feedback, and a model of learning and understanding. The research involves many millions of students and represents the largest ever evidence based research into what actually works in schools to improve learning. Areas covered include the influence of the student, home, school, curricula, teacher, and teaching strategies. A model of teaching and learning is developed based on the notion of visible teaching and visible learning. A major message is that what works best for students is similar to what works best for teachers – an attention to setting challenging learning intentions, being clear about what success means, and an attention to learning strategies for developing conceptual understanding about what teachers and students know and understand. Although the current evidence based fad has turned into a debate about test scores, this book is about using evidence to build and defend a model of teaching and learning. A major contribution is a fascinating benchmark/dashboard for comparing many innovations in teaching and schools.

Book 10 Mindframes for Visible Learning

Download or read book 10 Mindframes for Visible Learning written by John Hattie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-06 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original Visible Learning research concluded that one of the most important influencers of student achievement is how teachers think about learning and their own role. In Ten Mindframes for Visible Learning, John Hattie and Klaus Zierer define the ten behaviors or mindframes that teachers need to adopt in order to maximize student success. These include: thinking of and evaluating your impact on students’ learning; the importance of assessment and feedback for teachers; working collaboratively and the sense of community; the notion that learning needs to be challenging; engaging in dialogue and the correct balance between talking and listening; conveying the success criteria to learners; building positive relationships. These powerful mindframes, which should underpin every action in schools, are founded on the principle that teachers are evaluators, change agents, learning experts, and seekers of feedback who are constantly engaged with dialogue and challenge. This practical guide, which includes questionnaires, scenarios, checklists, and exercises, will show any school exactly how to implement Hattie’s mindframes to maximize success.
