The effects of implicit ethnic expectations and burnout on teachers’ evaluations of students’ performance

ABSTRACT This study explores the effects of teachers’ implicit ethnic expectations and burnout on their evaluation of student performance. Ethnic minority students frequently encounter disadvantages in education, which may be partly attributed to these factors related to teachers. During the academic year of 2021/2022, 55 teachers from a central region of Italy took part in the study, including 20 preservice teachers. The Maslach Burnout Inventory was used to measure teacher burnout, and the Relational Responding Task was utilised to assess teacher implicit beliefs about students’ achievement. A linear mixed-effects model was used to examine the relationship between teachers’ burnout, implicit expectations, and their evaluation of students. Results showed that teachers’ burnout was negatively associated with teachers’ evaluations of ethnic majority and ethnic minority students, regardless of their performance level. Additionally, results suggest that teachers’ implicit expectations may negatively influence their evaluations of ethnic minority students, even when those are high achieving. These findings highlight the need to further investigate the role of teachers’ stereotypical implicit expectations and burnout in their evaluation process. Future interventions should explore strategies to address these biases and promote more equitable evaluation practices.

Social media use by teachers during work and its effects on their performance: the role of teacher’s wellbeing and social media addiction

BackgroundAlthough extant literature has investigated the impacts of social sites on employees’ job performance in different sectors, scholars have given little attention to teachers’ job performance (TJoP) in higher educational institutes.PurposeWe aimed to investigate the direct and mediating impact of social media use (SMU) on TJoP. Based on social cognitive theory, this study proposed a model that consists of six hypotheses.Methodology: To empirically test the model, we develop a survey link to collect data from respondents working in universities in Jiangsu province, China. Partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS–SEM) using SmartPLS 4 has been used for analyzing 454 respondents.ResultsResearch findings demonstrate the significant effects of SMU on TJoP, well-being, and social media addiction (SMAdd). In addition, teachers’ well-being and SMAdd have a positive and negative significant effect, respectively, on TJoP. Moreover, this research evidenced a significant partial mediation of teachers’ well-being and SMAdd.ConclusionThis study points out the key role of SMU in the direct and indirect influences of TJoP through well-being and SMAdd. Further, it brings into view the urgency of higher education to prudently consider the implications of SMU on performance and general well-being among its faculty.

Academic Dishonesty from the Perspective of Primary School Teachers

Abstract Introduction: Academic dishonesty is addressed by various experts in pedagogy and psychology who seek to preserve academic integrity in accordance with the moral and ethical principles of contemporary society. Methods: The intention of the research was to find out how teachers evaluate different types of cheating by students during class, how they react to different types of academic dishonesty, and how they themselves were dishonest during their time in college. Teachers (N=272, mean age 40.85 years) responded on a 5-point Likert scale the attitudes towards morality, but also whether students cheated or self-reported their academic dishonesty when they were students. Results: Factor analysis indicated the existence of 4 factors of teachers’ moral beliefs (Trust in implicit morality, Teacher-given morality, Need for explicit rules, and Internalization of moral principles), which were correlated with students’ assessment of academic dishonesty (Use of external resources, Cooperation) and with teachers’ self-reported academic dishonesty (Utilitarianism, Unauthorized advantage, and Helping others). Discussion: The research findings suggest that teachers should focus more on understanding their pupils’ behaviour rather than condemning or punishing academic dishonesty and seek to develop their moral competence. Limitations: The research sample size is not representative, also the research method is not standardized. Conclusions: The role of teachers is to apply teaching strategies that will promote honest and responsible student behaviour.

Collaboration Efforts of Special Education Teachers in Turkey

Introduction: The roles of teachers, among the most important stakeholders in schools, have begun to change with changes in the world and the field of education. Legal regulations and inclusive education practices require that teachers collaborate with various stakeholders beyond merely teaching. In this respect, the objective of the present research is to examine the status of collaboration between special education teachers and other stakeholders in detail. Method: To this end, the research was designed as a mixed-method study. First, quantitative data were collected and analyzed, followed by qualitative data collection and analysis to understand the findings better. The study used an explanatory sequential design to determine teachers' collaboration levels, particularly in special education. A specially developed Collaboration Scale in Special Education, which underwent validity and reliability analyses, was used for the descriptive analysis of quantitative data. Qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observations, and researcher diaries and analyzed using content analysis. Findings: The quantitative results of the study showed no significant differences in collaboration levels among teachers based on gender, age, or professional experience. Qualitative data revealed that teachers engaged in limited and generally basic collaboration with administrators, paraprofessionals, and external stakeholders. Quantitative and qualitative findings indicated that collaboration processes were generally superficial and more structured; therefore, focused processes were needed. Discussion: The results of this study emphasize the necessity of structural arrangements and changes to establish effective collaboration between internal and external school stakeholders. Implementing the necessary regulations to ensure effective collaboration is considered highly important for the education of individuals with special needs.

Public school teachers' perceptions of internet gaming problems among students: current status and challenges

Objectives This study aimed to identify and understand the challenges faced by public school teachers regarding issues related to Internet gaming.Methods An electronic questionnaire was administered to 400 public school teachers in the Saitama Prefecture from September to November 2021. A total of 352 valid responses were obtained. The survey content included teachers' knowledge of gaming disorders, whether their students experienced gaming-related problems, difficulties perceived by teachers, how they discovered the problems, how they dealt with them, the challenges they faced in dealing with the problems, and desired support. Data were analyzed based on the teachers' roles, responsibilities, type of school, and knowledge of gaming difficulties. Fisher's exact probability tests were used to determine significance, and adjusted standardized residuals were used to assess the differences between groups.Results Nearly 63.1% of the teachers already had knowledge of gaming disorders, and 49.4% acknowledged the existence of students with gaming problems. The most common reasons for discovering problems were disrupted daily rhythm (51.7%) and increased tardiness and early dismissal (34.7%). The main actions taken to address gaming problems were "consultation and information sharing with families" (48.6%) and "individual guidance by teachers" (34.1%). Approximately half of the teachers indicated that they regularly experienced difficulties in activities related to prevention, early detection, student support, and interaction with parents. Specific challenges included limited guidance and involvement with families (61.4%) and the inability to intervene and provide effective support (62.5%). Teachers' support included programs for addiction recovery (56.8%), awareness programs for parents (56.0%), and staff training to increase the understanding of gaming disorders (50.5%). The responses varied according to teacher role and school type, indicating that implementation rates and difficulties were higher in middle schools.Conclusion We found that teachers tended to view internet gaming problems as family problems and provide complementary support for home education. Teachers also found it difficult to deal with students with gaming problems. Depending on the teacher's role in the school and the type of school, requests for support varied. Elementary and special-needs schools needed teaching materials that could be used for classroom and school-wide instruction and guidance for concerned students and their parents; junior high schools needed a consultation system with school counselors and other professionals and cooperation with healthcare; and high schools needed measures and support, including social support.

Un ruolo non è una cassetta degli attrezzi: l’insegnamento costruttivista e l’esperienza di ICP

Role is a construct that emerges from Sociality (Kelly, 1955). What can we say about the role of the constructivist teacher? This article aims to present the Institute of Constructivist Psychology’s teaching experience, starting from the assumption that being a constructivist teacher is not just about applying a toolbox, but implies a role relationship with students that changes in real time. Students are invited to abandon passive roles and to embody the role of psychotherapists-in-training from the first session. The class is considered as a learning community where the psychotherapists-in-training are invited to creatively co-construe the boundaries within which their own learning possibilities take life.
