The purpose of this study is to explore the teaching beliefs, teaching practice, teaching effectiveness, and related factors of elementary school teachers. A quantitative questionnaire survey method was employed, targeting formal elementary school teachers nationwide. Stratified random purposive sampling was used, and a total of 1056 questionnaires were distributed for data collection. 997 valid questionnaires were collected. The collected data were analyzed using statistical software such as SPSS and AMOS. Based on the analysis results, the following conclusions were drawn: 1.Teachers’ perceptions of ’’teaching beliefs’’,’’ teaching practice’’ and ’’teaching effectiveness ’’ were found to be at a moderate to high level. 2.Elementary school teachers’ teaching beliefs vary significantly based on gender, years of service, and school size. (1) Female teachers have higher ’’curriculum goals’’ in their teaching beliefs compared to male teachers. (2) Teachers with more than 21 years of service have higher overall ’’teaching beliefs’’, ’’curriculum goals’’ and ’’teaching methods’’ compared to teachers with 16-20 years of service. (3) Teachers from schools with a size of 25-36 classes have higher ’’curriculum goals’’ in their teaching beliefs compared to teachers from schools with a size below 12 classes. 3.Elementary school teachers’ teaching practice vary significantly based on age, education level, current position, school size, and geographical location. (1) Teachers aged 51 and above have higher overall ’’teaching practice’’ compared to teachers aged 41-50. (2) Teachers with a graduate degree or higher have higher ’’teaching assessment and feedback’’ in their teaching practice compared to teachers who graduated from universities of education (including college of preceptors). (3) Teachers who serve as homeroom teachers have higher ’’classroom management and interaction’’ in their teaching practice compared to subject teachers and teachers who also have administrative roles. (4) Teachers from schools with a size of 13-24 classes, 25-36 classes, and 37 classes and above have higher ’’curriculum planning and implementation’’ in their teaching practice compared to teachers from schools with a size below 12 classes. (5) Teachers from the northern region have higher levels of ’’overall teaching practice’’, ’’curriculum planning and implementation’’ and ’’teaching assessment and feedback’’ compared to teachers from the southern region. Teachers from the central region have higher levels of ’’overall teaching practice’’,’’classroom management and interaction’’ and ’’teaching assessment and feedback’’ compared to teachers from the southern region. Teachers from the central region have higher levels of ’’classroom management and interaction’’ compared to teachers from the eastern region. 4.Elementary school teachers’ teaching effectiveness varies significantly based on different factors such as age, years of service, position, school size, and geographical location. (1) Teachers aged 51 and above have higher ’’teaching plan preparation’’ effectiveness compared to teachers aged 41-50. (2) Teachers with 11-15 years of service have higher ’’teaching plan preparation’’ effectiveness compared to teachers with 16-20 years of service. (3) Teachers with administrative roles have higher ’’teaching plan preparation’’ effectiveness compared to homeroom teachers. (4) Teachers from schools with a size of 25-36 classes have higher ’’classroom management and interaction’’ effectiveness compared to teachers from schools with a size below 12 classes. (5) Teachers from the northern region have higher levels of ’’teaching plan preparation’’ effectiveness compared to teachers from the southern region. 5.There is a moderate to high positive correlation and positive predictive power between teachers’ teaching beliefs, teaching practice, and teaching effectiveness. 6.The structural equation model of teachers’ teaching beliefs, teaching practice, and teaching effectiveness demonstrates a good fit and has an influencing effect. 7.Teachers’ teaching beliefs partially mediate the relationship between teaching practice and teaching effectiveness. |
