The structural relationship between the cause (teacher belief) and effect (creative teaching belief) variables of achievement goals is discussed in this study. The relationship is further integrated to understand the mediating role of achievement goals in teacher belief and creative teaching belief. Both achievement goals and creative teaching belief are time-varying factors, while teacher belief is set the time invariant factor. 233 student teachers for elementary schools, as the research samples, are preceded four-time survey for the analysis with multivariate latent growth models (MLGM). The analysis results reveal that teacher belief would affect the growth slope of achievement goals and the initial state and growth rate of achievement goals would affect the initial state and growth rate of creative teaching belief. Most importantly, student teachers’ teacher belief is mediated by the slope of achievement goals to positively and indirectly affect the initial state of creative teaching belief as well as negatively and indirectly affect the growth rate of creative teaching belief. In the past, few studies have explored the dynamic development trend of achievement goals and creative teaching beliefs from the perspective of longitudinal analysis which shows the value of this research. More importantly, this research is based on a complete achievement goal framework, with teacher beliefs as antecedent variables, creative teaching beliefs as consequence variables, and a longitudinal research design, hoping to fully test the theoretical framework of achievement goals. This research puts forward specific suggestions for teachers and students’ beliefs in creative teaching. It is believed that efforts should be made to alleviate the decline in achievement goals, and it can also further promote the growth of creative teaching beliefs. Regarding the recommendations for the dynamic development of achievement goals, this study believes that the mastery trend, performance trend, and task trend are all very important, and their impact on the achievement goal is very significant. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance the sense of task and specific goals of teachers and students for creative teaching. |
