#78: The Key to Student Achievement: Teacher Collective Efficacy
Show Notes

Research shows that schools with strong collective teacher efficacy have higher student achievement (even having a higher impact than socio-economic status).

The episode discusses the following:

  • What collective teacher efficacy is and why it is important
  • Non-examples of collective teacher efficacy
  • Examples of how collective teacher efficacy can be built in schools
  • The importance of setting mastery goals instead of performance goals

Key takeaways:

  • Collective teacher efficacy is a powerful tool for improving student achievement.
  • Schools can build collective teacher efficacy by setting mastery goals, focusing on collaboration, and celebrating successes.
  • Leaders can change the narrative in schools by focusing on collective teacher efficacy rather than other factors that have less impact on student achievement.
