“…According to Tschannen-Moran and Hoy (2007), experience plays an important role in the development of TSES. Steele (2010) believes that success in teaching usually requires hard work and perseverance. Thus, preservice teachers must be given opportunities to experience teaching through peer teaching, student teaching and getting attached to schools prior to student teaching.…”

The objective of the study was to assess student teachers' efficacy in one of the teacher training institutions in Malaysia, with specific reference to the aspects of student engagement, instructional strategies and classroom management. The sample size was 675 final-year teacher education students. The findings suggest that a majority of the respondents had a high level of teaching efficacy (M = 3.98; SD = 0.36). They were also highly efficacious in student engagement (M = 4.01; SD = 0. 41), instructional strategies (M = 4.01; SD = 0. 39) and classroom management (M = 4.00; SD = 0.45). A significant correlation was found between teaching efficacy and academic achievement C (r = 0.15, p<0.05). The study also revealed that teaching efficacy differed as a function of gender (t = 6.47, p<0.05), career choice (t = 6.04, p<0.05), educational aspiration (t = 2.02, p<0.05) and content major (F 3,668 = 9.86, p<0.05).

“…It is also logical that the efficacy of preservice teachers is merely an indicator of how confident they are to face the real challenges of teaching (Bakar, Mohammed and Zakaria (2012). Mastery of teaching task, teaching practice, hard work and perseverance (Steele, 2010), parental involvement in school activities (Hoover-Dempsey, Brassler & Brissie, 1987) and induction (Keilwitz, 2014) can help preservice teachers experience success in teaching and subsequently improve upon their teaching efficacy.…”

This study explores personal teaching efficacy beliefs of basic school teachers in Ghana undergoing recertification to upgrade their qualification. The study examines whether the personal teaching efficacy of the teachers is affected by their subject specialisation. A descriptive survey design was employed for the study. Data for the study was obtained from a total of 185 in-service teachers selected randomly from a group of teachers who were undergoing recertification from diploma to bachelor degree in basic education in a teacher education university in Ghana. Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES) was adapted and used to measure in-service teachers’ personal teaching efficacy beliefs. The findings of the study showed that in-service teachers have a high sense of personal teaching efficacy. The study also revealed that in-service teachers’ level of self-efficacy was not affected by their subject specialization.

“…Servant leadership may be a good fit for online learning as online learners face unique challenges such as social isolation, persistence, and high attrition rates (Johnson & Vishwanath, 2011;Huber, 2014;Mariano, 2013;Reed & Swanson, 2014). Servant leadership may benefit online learners by means of emotional healing, wisdom, persuasive mapping, commitment to the growth and empowerment of others, offers of feedback, and commitment to building a community of learners (Barbuto & Wheeler, 2006;Huber, 2014;Steele, 2010). These instructor behaviors may affect student satisfaction (Huber, 2014), thereby increasing student retention and engagement (Lorenzo, 2012;Noland & Richards, 2015;Schreiner & Nelson, 2013;Cole et al, 2014).…”

“…No empirical studies were located in which the relationship between the individual servant leadership styles of online instructors and online student satisfaction with the instructor was evaluated. However, the evidence from the research on servant leadership at the organizational level suggests that the same positive relationship may be found at the individual level (Huber, 2014;Jacobs, 2011;Steele, 2010).…”

Servant leadership has the potential to improve student satisfaction with online learning. However, the relationship between servant leadership and student satisfaction in an online environment had not yet been understood at the level of the individual instructor. The purpose of this quantitative, correlational study was to evaluate the relationship between online students’ perception of their instructor’s servant leadership style and the student’s satisfaction with the online instructor. We selected 155 online students at a major community college in the south-central United States to complete the Servant Leadership Questionnaire and the Student Evaluation of Teaching survey online. We examined the relationships between each of the five facets of perceived servant leadership style (altruistic calling, emotional healing, wisdom, persuasive mapping, and organizational stewardship) and student satisfaction. The results of the Spearman’s correlations showed a strong positive correlation between all servant leadership behaviors and student satisfaction, p < .001. A multiple linear regression analysis showed that the combination of altruistic calling, persuasive mapping, and wisdom strongly predicted student satisfaction with the instructor, F(3, 151) = 83.8, p < .001, R2= .63. The results of this study have filled a gap in the literature on the relationship between online student satisfaction and individual servant leadership behaviors. We recommend future research to investigate servant leadership in relationship to online learning at 4-year public, for-profit, and private institutions.
