Systematic Literature Review on Self-Assessment Inventory for Quality Teaching among Islamic Education Teachers

The impact of teaching behavior towards teaching quality and self-assessment has become an emerging drift in education, providing an option for teachers’ development. However, studies on teaching behavior and self-assessment are still scarce, despite their importance in improving education. Thus, this review thoroughly identifies the aspects of teaching behavior and teaching quality, as well as the instruments of self-assessment in the teaching profession. Initially, 116 articles published on Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus between 2017 to 2021 were identified, and 10 out of 116 articles were retained for review, based on the exclusion and inclusion criteria. The criteria include the significant findings listed the aspects of teaching behavior and teaching quality. Second, the approaches of self-assessment are emphasized in teaching. Third, the reliability of the instruments used for self-assessment mostly achieved the internal consistency criteria. These three criteria imply the importance of self-assessment for quality teaching and teacher development. In general, this review could help teachers cultivate quality teaching behavior and perform reflective practice for their personal development.

The Mediating Effect of Creative Personality in the Relationship between Childcare Teacher’s Efficacy and Creative Teaching Behaviour

The purpose of this study is to identify the mediating effect of creative personality in the relationship between childcare teachers’ efficacy and creative teaching behavior. The participants of the study were 300 childcare teachers and selected the data between October 14 to 22, 2020. The study results were as follows. First, it evidenced positive correlations among efficacy, creative teaching behavior, and creative personality. Therefore, when childcare teachers show higher efficacy and creative personality levels, creative teaching behavior levels are likely to be higher. Second, childcare teachers’ efficacy directly affected creative teaching behaviors and creative personality, which also directly affected creative teaching behavior. Third, creative personality partially mediated between efficacy and creative teaching behaviors. As the childcare field continues to emphasize creative teaching behaviors, it must create an environment where childcare teachers can improve their efficacy and develop their creative personalities. Furthermore, educational programs should encourage teachers to enhance their efficacy and express their creative personalities.

THE EFFECTS OF AUTONOMY-SUPPORTIVE AND CONTROLLING TEACHING BEHAVIORS ON PRIMARY STUDENTS' STEM LEARNING PERFORMANCE AND FLOW EXPERIENCE

Flow experience plays a major role in influencing students’ interest of STEM, which is the key to promote STEM talent development. Various teaching behaviors contribute differently to student learning performance and flow experience. Specifically, this research sought to concretely explore the different influences of Autonomy-supportive (AS) teaching behavior and Controlling (C) teaching behavior on students’ STEM learning performance and flow experience. The research conducted an experimental exploration of STEM project among primary school students in two groups with two different teaching behaviors (AS and C) respectively. T-test and ANCOVA analysis revealed that both teaching behaviors greatly contributed to improvement of students’ learning performance. MANCOVA analysis showed that students in Autonomy-supportive group got slightly significant higher flow experience than those in Control group. Regarding flow constructs, both groups had the similar level of engagement, but students in Autonomy-supportive group had higher enjoyment, and stronger control than those in the other group. In other words, Autonomy-supportive teaching behavior and Controlling teaching behavior both enhanced greatly students’ STEM learning performance. While Autonomy-supportive teaching behavior allowed students to be more enjoyable and have a higher level of control in STEM learning. Keywords: autonomy-supportive teaching, controlling teaching, flow experience, learning performance, intrinsic motivation, STEM project

The New "offline + Online" Teaching Model of College English Based on Cloud Computing

Through literature review, this paper expounds the descriptive parameter framework of College English mixed teaching and the index framework of teachers' effective teaching behavior in College English mixed teaching and its influencing factors. Based on this, this paper studies the new "offline + online" teaching model of College English based on cloud computing. This paper verifies and enriches the framework established based on literature through pilot interviews. For the part of effective teaching behavior, this paper applies Delphi expert survey method to conduct two rounds of questionnaire consultation with 10 information-based foreign language teaching research experts, and forms the final effective teaching behavior questionnaire. The results of this study show that teachers' effective teaching behavior in College English teaching can be summarized into five factors. According to the explanatory power, the order from high to low is: online learning management, teacher support, organizing face-to-face classroom, diversified evaluation and personalized teaching. Therefore, the new "offline + online" teaching model of College English based on cloud computing can improve the efficiency of English teaching.

Investigating the Influencing Factors of Teachers’ Information and Communications Technology-Integrated Teaching Behaviors toward “Learner-Centered” Reform Using Structural Equation Modeling

In the context of information-driven Education transformation, this study investigates factors that influence the continuous transformation of teacher information and communications technology (ICT) teaching methods. Although some studies have found that teacher psychological cognition exerts different effects on different types of teacher ICT-integrated teaching behaviors, the current literature on influencing factors lacks the classification of behaviors. Based on the learner-centered transformation, this study divides teacher ICT-integrated teaching behaviors into teacher-centered teaching behavior and student-centered teaching behavior, and constructs a hypothesis model of influencing factors on teacher ICT-integrated teaching behavior. We collected questionnaire data from 795 primary and secondary school teachers, then validated and adjusted the model through structural equation modeling (SEM). The social environment exerted a significant indirect impact on teacher technology application behaviors via mediation of teacher efficacy and outcome expectations. The two types of self-efficacy directly affected the student-centered ICT application behavior more than the teacher-centered ICT application behavior. The student-centered ICT application behavior exerted a significant impact on the teacher-centered ICT application behavior. This study confirms the significance of classifying teacher ICT-integrated teaching behavior and supports the transformation of learner-centered ICT-integrated teaching by improving the social environment to realize equitable and sustainable Education development.

A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Based Approach for the Recognition and Evaluation of Classroom Teaching Behavior

To improve classroom teaching behavior recognition and evaluation accuracy, this paper proposes a new model based on deep learning. First, we obtain the classroom teaching behavior characteristic data through the SVM’s linear separable initial and determine the relationship of the characteristic sample data in the hyperplane. Then, we obtain the heterogeneous support vector of the online learning behavior characteristic sample data in the SVM’s hyperplane and complete the extraction of data with the help of convolutional neural networks. We then use a decision matrix to analyze the hierarchical process, determine the weight of classroom teaching behavior indicators, verify their consistency, and complete the evaluation by calculating the membership of evaluation factors. The experimental results show that the identification and evaluation method of classroom teaching behavior in this paper can effectively improve the identification accuracy of the classroom teaching behavior.
