Developing teacher efficacy through shared stories.
Abstract
For new teachers, learning to navigate the demands of standards and curricula while developing a classroom persona can be extremely challenging. The stories of mentor teachers can help novices envision ways to adopt new teaching strategies that can help them develop a successful practice. Effective stories emerge when a mentor listens to teachers' concerns and finds matching stories from her own experience. When this occurs, the stories illuminate the embodiment of pedagogical theory, thus helping the novice teacher to locate and develop self-efficacy.
