Students' mathematics self-efficacy (MSE) is strongly associated with learning behaviours and performance, and students' future career choices.

We explore how much borrowers value student debt relief, in the setting of the federal Teacher Loan Forgiveness (TLF) program, and further document whether information and eligibility for this program affect teacher employment decisions. The program cancels between $5,000 and $17,500 in debt for teachers who remain employed in a high-need school…

Career selection in medicine is a complex and underexplored process. Most medical career studies performed in the U.S. focused on the effect of demographic variables and medical education debt on career choice.

Segbenya, Moses; Aframea Dankyi, Lydia; Kwakyewaa Dankyi, Joyce; Owusu-Achiaw, Richlove – Cogent Education, 2023
The incongruity between academic programmes pursued and the career path among graduates in recent times suggests that career path does not always lead to programme choice and vice versa. Different occupations/professions not directly found in the area of academic programmes pursued could appeal to graduates. This study sought to examine how the…

Ross Bussell – Excelsior: Leadership in Teaching and Learning, 2023
While teacher education programs have long studied what draws students to choose a career in teaching, a less studied aspect of teacher candidates relates to students who change majors to become teachers. As a phenomenon that is common in teacher preparation, I am interested in better understanding why this happens. This article centers around six…
