An Identification of Elementary Teacher Needs:

An Identification of Elementary Teacher Needs: Elementary school teachers have certain needs which limit their effectiveness in the classroom. To identify these needs, an assessment of teacher needs was conducted. The elementary school teachers indicated a high priority need for help in six factor need areas: (1) developing effective learners and a mastery of the basic skills; (2) guiding children to set up and achieve realistic goals; (3) locating materials and in-service support for more effective teaching; (4) establishing and maintaining discipline; (5) identifying and understanding readiness factors that affect learning; and (6) motivating children to learn. Additionally, analyses of variance were performed to test for relationships between the identified factor needs of elementary teachers and selected teacher variables. No statistically significant (p < 0.05) relationships were found to exist. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png American Educational Research Journal SAGE

Abstract

Elementary school teachers have certain needs which limit their effectiveness in the classroom. To identify these needs, an assessment of teacher needs was conducted. The elementary school teachers indicated a high priority need for help in six factor need areas: (1) developing effective learners and a mastery of the basic skills; (2) guiding children to set up and achieve realistic goals; (3) locating materials and in-service support for more effective teaching; (4) establishing and maintaining discipline; (5) identifying and understanding readiness factors that affect learning; and (6) motivating children to learn. Additionally, analyses of variance were performed to test for relationships between the identified factor needs of elementary teachers and selected teacher variables. No statistically significant (p < 0.05) relationships were found to exist.
