This paper reports on an online distance learning course that emphasizes the improvement of the self-efficacy beliefs of in-service elementary school teachers in teaching biological concepts. The course utilizes digital educational content and Open Educational Resources (OERs) and focuses on the interaction, peer support, and peer teaching into an online learning environment. In the design framework of the course, we investigated the educational needs of teachers and took into consideration the findings of other studies. A total of 251 teachers were enrolled in the online distance learning course and 142 completed it. Quantitative and qualitative data was collected in November 2020 through the bio-STEBI-A instrument and the posts in the forums of the course. The quantitative results revealed an improvement in both subscales of bio-STEBI-A, which were also confirmed by the qualitative ones, that underline the course, thus contributing to the improvement of self-efficacy beliefs of in-service elementary school teachers in teaching biological concepts. Recommendations are made for future research.

We examined a training program in classroom management in relation to the efficacy beliefs of elementary school teachers. The training program used a quasi-experimental design with a waitlist control group. Twenty-seven elementary school teachers in the greater Quebec City area participated. The repeated measures ANOVA results revealed positive effect of the program on teachers’ personal teaching efficacy beliefs, and in the teachers’ perceived self-efficacy in managing difficult behaviours in the classroom. A group by time interaction effect was also observed with regard to the teachers’ perceived self-efficacy in eliciting principals’ support where participating teachers were more confident in their interactions with principals at follow-up. Factors that influence the development of self-efficacy beliefs of teachers and implications for practice are discussed.

ABSTRACT The phenomenon that occurs based on data from the Bogor District Education Office, regarding Elementary School Teachers in Cluster IV, Pamijahan sub-district, Bogor Regency, turns out that the performance of elementary school teachers is still low. This is shown from the average results of the performance evaluation of elementary school teachers in Cluster IV Pamijahan sub-district by the Bogor District Government in collaboration with the Bogor District Education Office in 2016 showing that the performance of elementary school teachers in Cluster IV Pamijahan sub-district Bogor Regency is relatively low at an average of 41 72%. If this problem does not get attention and is left by educators including the principal, then the quality of the learning process will remain low, making it impossible for efforts to improve the quality of education to achieve significant results. This study aims to determine and find the relationship between the principal's leadership and teacher's self-efficacy both together and partially with the performance of teachers in Cluster IV Pamijahan sub-district. This study uses correlational research methods to solve problems. The population in this study were all elementary school teachers in Cluster IV, Pamijahan sub-district, Bogor Regency with a total of 283 people. The sample in this study was taken with Stratifield Proportional Random Sampling totaling 166 respondents from 34 public elementary schools in Cluster IV Pamijahan sub-district. Data collection techniques for all variables using a questionnaire. Data analysis techniques using correlation analysis, multiple correlation, regression, multiple regression and coefficient of determination with the prerequisite test analysis is the normality test. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded: (1) Based on the results of the test of the significance of the correlation shows that t arithmetic > t table (2.268> 1.981) Thus the research hypothesis which states there is a relationship between the leadership of the school principal and the performance of elementary school teachers in group IV Pamijahan District is proven to be true. (2) Based on the results of testing the significance of the correlation shows that t arithmetic> t table (2.767> 1.981) Thus the research hypothesis which states that there is a relationship between self-efficacy and the performance of elementary school teachers in cluster IV Pamijahan District tested the truth. (3) Based on the results of the significance test of multiple linear regression equations, Fcount is 3.78 while Ftable for denominator 2 and numerator 109 for confidence level α = 0.05 is 3.08 which means the value of Fcount> Ftable (3.78> 3, 08). This shows that Ho was rejected, meaning Ha who stated there was a positive relationship between the principal's leadership and the teacher's self-efficacy together with the teacher's performance was acceptable Keywords: Teacher Performance, Principal Leadership and Teacher Self-Efficacy

This study aims to describe the impact of online mentoring activities in implementing the RADEC (Read, Answer, Discuss, Explain, and Create) learning model on the competence of elementary school teachers in training students’ critical thinking skills. The method was a pre-experiment with a one-group pretest-posttest design involving 25 elementary school teachers in Indonesia. The teachers received online mentoring in implementing RADEC learning model. The research instrument was a questionnaire to measure teachers’ knowledge and skills in training critical thinking. The data processing technique was carried out by calculating the mean and the percentage of each item to obtain a description of the teachers’ knowledge and skills in training students’ critical thinking before and after treatment. The data were analyzed inferentially with a paired sample t-test using SPSS version 22 software to see the impact of the treatment on teachers’ competence in training critical thinking. Based on the results of the paired-sample t-test, for both the knowledge and skills aspects, the probability value (sig) was 0.00 <0.05. This result means that there was a significant difference in the knowledge and skills of teachers in training students’ critical thinking skills before and after mentoring activities. The study results indicate that the online mentoring in implementing the RADEC learning model improved teachers’ competence in training elementary school students’ critical thinking skills.
