Teaching characteristics
Read more to participate in qualitative research on teaching characteristics.
This association has agreed to assist in determining a sample of language teachers for qualitative research conducted by a doctorate student at Case Western Reserve University, Weatherhead School of Management. The supervisor of this student is Professor Richard Boyatzis. The study will investigate "teaching characteristics" employed by teachers today.
The study is conducted following the professional ethics of the Internal Review Board, whose approval has been granted. Nominations as well as interviews will be conducted under strict confidentiality and after each interview a number code will be assigned to help ensure that personal identifiers are not revealed during the analysis and write up of findings.
By visiting the website and nominating, your consent to participate will be deemed as given. The website for nominations is :
https://cwru.az1.qualtrics.
You will firstly be required to determine your elegibility to act as a peer nominator for the purpose of this study. The study requires confirmation that you have been working as a language teacher for more than two years. YES/NO
If not, then you will not be eligible to nominate and your nomination will not be disregarded.
If yes, then you will be requested to write the names of language teachers that you consider, to the best of your knowledge, to be outstanding teachers. You may write as many or as few names as you feel appropriate. If you choose no teacher, please leave the boxes blank and skip to the end.
The study team will collect and compile the data for the doctorate student to then contact nominated teachers to be interviewed. These interviews are voluntary and confidential. Invitees reserve the right to decline to be interviewed.
Thank you for your attention and we hope to determine a sufficient number of sample for the research to have impact and meaning for teachers today.
