Preparation introduces the reader to a collection of thoughtful
works by authors that represent current research and thinking about
teacher self-efficacy and teacher preparation. It is the intent of

concerning preparation of committed and efficacious teachers.
Teacher self-efficacy, and the presence of teacher efficacy, in
teacher preparation and practice, is fundamental to preparing
teachers for the public school classroom. As a construct, teacher
self-efficacy beliefs are an integral aspect of the teaching
process. While many authors refer to teachers' sense of
self-efficacy for teaching, meaning their beliefs about their
ability to perform the actions necessary to teach, many others have
identified a specific form of self-efficacy pertaining to teaching.
These have been called teaching or teacher efficacy. Chapter One
opens the book with a focus on the teacher commitment and
self-efficacy, providing the reader with an introduction. The
authors of Chapters Two-Seven present field-based research that
examines the complexities efficacy and commitment in the
preparation of teachers. Each chapter offers the reader an
examination of teacher self-efficacy and teacher preparation and
based on formal research that provides the reader with insight into
how the research study was conducted as well as equally important,
the findings and conclusions drawn with respect teacher
self-efficacy and teacher preparation. Finally, Chapter Nine
presents an epilogue that focuses on the for more efficacious
teacher preparation.
