Relationship Between Selected Teacher Variables and Growth in Arithmetic in Grades Four, Five and Six. Final Report [electronic resource] / Demitrios P. Prekeges.

This study reports on the relationship between nine teacher-variables and student achievement. Student achievement was portioned out into four independent variables to be used in a multiple linear regression analysis; they were growth in understanding, growth in problem solving, growth in computatio...

520 |a This study reports on the relationship between nine teacher-variables and student achievement. Student achievement was portioned out into four independent variables to be used in a multiple linear regression analysis; they were growth in understanding, growth in problem solving, growth in computation, and overall achievement. Tests to measure these variables were constructed by the researcher and made compatible with the content being taught. Teacher variables include knowledge test scores, attitudes toward traditional or "new math" programs, academic preparation, and principal rating scales. All test instruments are included in the appendix. The population for this study was 61 fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-grade classes and their 61 teachers, selected randomly from 400 possible classes. There were no significant relationships between any teacher variables, when taken individually or in groups, and student growth in any of the three areas--understanding, problem solving, and computation--when taken individually or in groups.
