Early Literacy Professional Development: Exploring the Effects of Mentoring for Preschool Teachers
|
|
|
|
Abstract:
This study examined the impact of mentoring as a separate component of professional development on both teacher and student outcomes. Preschool teachers from Head Start centers and Public School programs were randomly assigned to condition and then received extensive professional development training over a two-year period. The teachers were observed three times per year in their classrooms using an observation instrument that measured the overall quality of language and literacy environment. The students were assessed three times per year to assess growth in the following emergent literacy skills: (a) phonological sensitivity, (b) print awareness and (c) expressive vocabulary. Both teacher and student measures were analyzed by condition, by site, and by condition controlling for site using growth curve analysis. Mentoring was found to have no impact on teachers' observation scores however the mentored teachers did have higher levels of compliance to implementing one of the emergent literacy activities. Children from mentored classrooms had significantly greater growth on the Elision subtest than children from non-mentored classrooms. More differences were found when the student data was analyzed by site than by condition. ; A Dissertation submitted to the Department of Childhood Education, Reading and Disability Services in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ; Spring Semester, 2006. ; February 27, 2006. ; Early Childhood Education, Preschool, Professional Development, Staff Development, Teacher Training, Mentoring, Early Literacy ; Includes bibliographical references. ; Stephanie Dent Al Otaiba, Professor Directing Dissertation; Joseph Torgesen, Outside Committee Member; Christopher Schatschneider, Outside Committee Member; Barbara J.
