Students' Sense of Academic Efficacy and Achievement in Science: A Useful New Direction for Research Regarding Scientific Literacy?
Jinks, Jerry; Morgan, Vicky L.
Electronic Journal of Science Education, v1 n2 Dec 1996
Compares the academic efficacy beliefs of 7th and 8th grade students from an inner city K-8 school with those from a suburban junior high school. Results suggest that understanding more about students' sense of academic efficacy and the role those beliefs might play in science achievement may have important implications for both curriculum and instruction.
