Development of the Mathematics Teaching Efficacy Beliefs Instrument Korean Version for Elementary Preservice Teachers

Using Robotics and Engineering Design Inquiries to Optimize Mathematics Learning for Middle Level Teachers: A Case Study

“…Two data collection methods were used: Mathematics Teaching Efficacy Belief Instrument (MTEBI) (Ryang, 2010), and direct observations. MTEBI consists of 21 items on a 5-point Likert scale: 1. explored the use of online learning tools and installed the Robotic Effector software on their computers to prepare them for designing and programming the LEGO robot;…”

“…1=Strongly Disagree (SD), 2=Disagree (D), 3=Uncertain (UN), 4=Agree (A), and 5=Strongly Agree(SA). Seven items that are negatively worded were reverse coded to ensure that a high value indicates the same type of response on every item Ryang (2010). conducted various statistical analyses on S/MTEBI over two different datasets to ascertain cross-validity.…”

Development and Validation of the Mathematics Teaching Efficacy Scale: Confirmatory Factor Analysis

“…There were a few research studies testing the validity the MTEBI in other cultures. Alkhateeb (2004) Recently, Ryang (2013aRyang ( , 2013b modified the MTEBI for Korean elementary and secondary preservice teachers so factorial validity was established on each version. However, the items of these revised versions were restricted within the American MTEBI so they do not fully reflect original values and concepts shared among teachers, teacher educators, researchers, and educational policy makers of South Korea.…”
