In the field of teacher expectations and pupil learning one
important psychological truth is that the pupils' achievement in
learning is strongly influenced by the teachers' expectations of
their level of performance, high or low. Roy Nash discusses
critically and fully important research in this area. In the belief
that research must be interpreted within an overall theory of
social action, the author relates the empirical studies which he
examines to an interactionist theory. He emphasizes the importance
of making teachers aware of the implications of what they are doing
and of the possibility of establishing wider and more educative
patterns of interaction. He shows that research into 'attitudes',
'perceptions', or 'expectations' is all essentially concerned with
the same problem: how teachers relate to pupils on the basis of a
model of what pupils may be. Much of the work he discusses has
direct relevance to teachers in their day-to-day work. The research
findings will help them to become more aware of their attitudes and
how these influence their actions, and should make them more likely
to give all their pupils equal opportunities within their classes.
Among the topics covered are observational and experimental studies
of teacher expectations, the analysis of classroom climate,
self-conceptions, pupils' perceptions and expectations, and the
significance of classroom-based research into teacher/pupil
interaction.
