摘要:AbstractThe purpose of the present study was two-fold: (a) to validate a teaching styles questionnaire, and, (b) to evaluate change in teaching styles as a function of different training programs. For (a) 849 teachers took part in the study and the factor structure of the scale was assessed using Latent Variable Modelling (LVM). For (b) 86 special educators were trained on written expression instructional approaches through different training media. Results regarding: (a) indicated that a 4-factor correlated simple structure best described the observed data, and, (b) the educators that participated in an interventional program altered significantly their teaching styles.
