The Teacher Belief Q-Sort: A measure of teachers' priorities in relation to disciplinary practices, teaching practices, and beliefs about children2006 •
The present study advances a new method for assessing teacher beliefs and priorities. This paper describes the development and psychometric properties of the Teacher Belief Q-Sort (TBQ), an assessment technique that examines teachers' priorities and beliefs about discipline practices, classroom practices, and beliefs about children (see www. socialdevelopmentlab. org. Further, this paper describes the usefulness of this tool by examining differences in beliefs and priorities among four groups of teachers ( ...

This study aimed at exploring the factors affecting classroom teachers’ job performance. Maximum variation sampling was used to select the study group. 72 teachers working at primary schools in a province in Eastern Turkey participated in a qualitative dominant mixed-methods study incorporating a qualitative case study and Q methodology. The data obtained through interviews were content-analyzed, and the Q data were analyzed via the PQMethod 2.35 software program. The results indicated that organizational, managerial, and systemic factors had both negative and positive effects on teacher performance. Teachers expressed similar views via the item configurations provided and built up a similar profile about the factors affecting job performance. Besides general professional competencies, students’ readiness level and teachers’ mastery of course content were reported to have impacts on classroom teachers’ job performance.
The study of dispositions for effective teaching is a key topic in any discourse on educational reform. The purpose of identifying optimal dispositions are to a) screen potential teacher candidates during the admission process, and b) specifically develop and measure these dispositions and characteristics throughout the teacher education program. As we found in Phase One of this three-part study using the Teacher Behaviour Q-sort (TBQ), there is a consensus across teachers, administrators, and education faculty about how the diverse characteristics, skills and behaviours required by teachers should be ranked or ordered from most to least important. In this phase of the study we are examining the dispositions of 'Master' teachers at three distinct grade levels (primary, intermediate, and high-school) to assess whether there are distinct teaching styles, different ways to be excellent, within or across grade levels, and how well the consensus that we found earlier reflects these different styles.

An Analysis of Pre-Service Teachers’ Attitudes and Opinions Regarding the Teaching Profession via Q-MethodologyIn an effort to close the achievement gap, the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) added instruction and evaluation of teacher dispositions to its requirements for credentialing teachers. This study tests for correlations between these dispositions and student academic growth on state standards tests. Teacher dispositions were measured using three surveys, and teaching effectiveness was measured using value-added scale score growth of their students on state standards assessments. Teachers and students involved in the study were from four schools in a low-income urban district with a large English Learner population. The data were first analyzed looking for correlations between teacher rankings in terms of scale score growth, and the strength of teacher responses on the three surveys. Then stepwise regressions were run to look at individual survey items to further check the validity of the required dispositions, and to explore two other potential correlates to teaching effectiveness: classroom management, and personal efficacy for teaching challenging students. Results reveal significant positive correlations between student achievement and the dispositions for classroom management and personal efficacy in terms of confidence in one’s ability to teach all students. No significant correlations were found between student achievement and dispositions for instructional strategies or addressing diversity. This study suggests that characteristics other than those emphasized by NCATE may be most significant in developing highly effective teachers for diverse populations.

Львів як столиця та церковний центр Русі XV-XVIII ст. в письменстві, актових і картографічних документах2022 •
Розглянуто феномен столиці Львова в епоху пізнього середньовіччя та раннього нового часу. До уваги взято згадки про столичний характер міста і про його значення як релігійного центру в тогочасних історичних та художніх творах, юридичних документах, на картах. Зазначено, що про столичність Львова вперше в історичній літературі написав польський учений Ян Длуґош. Пізніше, у XVI ст., це поняття поширилося серед інших істориків і з'явилося на сторінках художньої літератури. У суспільній думці конкурували два взаємовиключні топоси: Львів як столиця Русі (або Червоної Русі) та місто прикордонного типу. У столичному статусі цей міський осередок фігурував і в різних правових актах, а також картографічних джерелах. Хоча Львів і далі називали "столицею Русі", він поступово втратив свій руський (український) характер, утвердившись як найпотужніший економічний центр пізньосередньовічного та ранньомодерного періодів. Церковні реалії тієї доби якнайкраще відображають столичну роль міста, заснованого у княжі часи.
