A Comparison of Elementary Teacher Efficacy in Christian and Public Schools
Journal of Research on Christian Education, v32 n1-2 p53-64 2023
Teacher efficacy has a myriad of impacts on teaching and learning. This study was conducted to compare elementary teacher efficacy in Christian private schools and public schools to determine if there was a difference in overall efficacy, instructional strategies, classroom management, and student engagement. The participants of this study were surveyed with the Teacher's Sense of Efficacy Scale. Discussion of the findings was used to recognize factors within Christian and public schools that could impact efficacy levels and provide the framework for leaders to leverage efficacy levels to best impact student success and teacher growth.
