| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北教育大學 === 教育政策與管理研究所 === 97 === This study aims to investigate teachers’ beliefs and the teaching efficiency for the immigrant brides’ children of the elementary school teachers in Keelung and Penghu and the relationship between teachers’ beliefs and teaching efficiency. The study was conducted through a questionnaire survey using random sampling to select the target group; 331 elementary school teachers in Penghu and 326 elementary teachers in Keelung, who teach the immigrant brides’ children. The data was collected by a self-constructed questionnaire, compared and analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, two-way ANOVA, multiple comparisons and structural equation modeling (SEM). Suggestions were then put forward on the basis of the following shown findings:
1. Elementary school teachers in Penghu and Keelung have high teachers’ beliefs and teaching efficiency for the immigrant brides’ children.
2. Elementary school teachers in Penghu have significant higher self-efficiency than elementary school teachers in Keelung.
3. The differences in teachers’ beliefs between elementary school teachers in Penghu and Keelung among different background variables:
Using two-way ANOVA to analyze the differences in teachers’ beliefs in different districts and background variables, only the variables “district” and “years of teaching immigrant brides’ children” have a significant interaction effect on teachers’ beliefs about planning.
a. Elementary school teachers in Penghu, who have at least six-year experience in teaching immigrant brides’ children, hold the lowest teachers’ beliefs about planning.
b. Elementary school teachers in Keelung, who have at least six-year experience in teaching immigrant brides’ children, hold the highest teachers’ beliefs about planning.
4. The differences in teaching efficiency between elementary school teachers in Penghu and Keelung among different background variables:
Using two-way ANOVA to analyze the differences in teaching efficiency in different districts and background variables, there is no significant difference between elementary school teachers in Penghu and Keelung in variables such as “district”, “job position”, “school scale”, “number of students in one class”, “year of teaching immigrant brides’ children” and “the number of immigrant brides’ children in one class”
Significant differences in teachers’ beliefs among members of the target group were seen in the following areas:
ii
a. Self efficiency of the elementary school teachers in Penghu is significantly higher than that of the elementary teachers in Keelung.
b. General teaching efficiency of the female elementary school teachers is significantly higher than that of the male elementary school teachers.
c. Overall teaching efficiency of the female elementary school teachers is significantly higher than that of the male elementary school teachers.
d. Experienced elementary school teachers exhibit higher teaching efficiency.
e. The elementary school teachers in Penghu holding no degree higher than a bachelor’s degree exhibit the lowest self efficiency for immigrant brides’ children.
f. The elementary school teachers holding no degree higher than a bachelor’s degree in Keelung exhibit the highest self efficiency for immigrant brides’ children.
g. The elementary school teachers who have attend at least six education seminars over the course of their teaching careers show the highest general teaching efficiency.
5. The elementary school teachers holding progressive beliefs in Penghu and Keelung show higher teaching efficiency than those holding traditional beliefs.
6. Findings from SEM analysis reveal that elementary school teachers holding progressive and traditional beliefs in Penghu and Keelung make positive contributions to self and teaching efficiency.
