Psychosocial Classroom Environment and Academic Efficacy in Canadian High School Mathematics Classes.
Ferguson, Janet M.; Dorman, Jeffrey P.
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v47 n3 p276-79 Fall 2001
A study examining the relationship between classroom environment and academic self-efficacy surveyed 951 mathematics students in grades 8 and 10 in 4 Canadian high schools. Improved levels of involvement, investigation, and task orientation were associated with higher levels of academic efficacy. Conventional classrooms may foster academic efficacy more effectively than constructivist classrooms. (TD)
