Bautista, Nazan Uludag; Boone, William J. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2015
The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of a mixed-reality teaching environment, called TeachME™ Lab (TML), on early childhood education majors' science teaching self-efficacy beliefs. Sixty-two preservice early childhood teachers participated in the study. Analysis of the quantitative (STEBI-b) and qualitative (journal entries)…

Peer reviewedSaam, Julie; Boone, William J.; Chase, Valerie – Science Educator, 2001
Describes a study that investigated the self-efficacy and outcome expectancy of local teachers who participated in a professional development outreach program. Suggests that the outcome expectancy and self-efficacy of teachers did not depend on the students' economic status, geography, or ethnicity. (Contains 13 references.) (Author/YDS)

Boone, William J.; Townsend, J. Scott; Staver, John – Science Education, 2011
Over many decades, science education researchers have developed, validated, and used a wide range of attitudinal instruments. Data from such instruments have been analyzed, results have been published, and public policies have been influenced. Unfortunately, most science education instruments are not developed using a guiding theoretical…
