Teacher Efficacy: Its Meaning and Measure.

Tschannen-Moran, Megan; Hoy, Anita Woolfolk; Hoy, Wayne K.

Review of Educational Research, v68 n2 p202-48 Sum 1998

The theoretical and empirical underpinnings of teacher efficacy as indicated in the research literature are examined to bring coherence to the construct and its measurement. A model of teacher efficacy is introduced that reconciles two competing conceptual strands found in the literature. Strategies are also suggested for improving the efficacy of inservice teachers.
