- Summary:
-
A study used data gathered by the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) to address three issues: (1) What do the school and teacher reports reveal about current patterns of instruction? (2) How well do these results agree with earlier findings based solely on student reports? and (3) what relationships exist between student outcomes on the one hand and instructional practices (at school and classroom levels) on the other, after allowing for the effects of important related factors such as socioeconomic status? Findings suggest that in both reading and writing instruction, teachers seem to have effected a compromise between educational practices that are treated in the pedagogical literature as incompatible. Findings also show that the overall portrait of instruction that emerges from the analyses of teacher report data is very similar to that that emerges from the student data. Findings regarding relationships between student outcomes and instructional practices included noting a stronger relationship between the focus of instruction and student attitudes than between the focus of instruction and student proficiency. (Thirty-two tables of data are included, 24 references are attached, and appendixes contain 4 tables of data.) (SR)
