요약 | 혻In recent years, the United States has transformed into a more linguistically diverse country. This change is particularly reflected in early childhood populations that serve dual language learners (DLLs). Many Dual Language Learners (DLLs) are faced with the difficult task of transitioning from their home language to learning English. DLLs are children under 5 years of age who are exposed to and learn two distinct languages during a critical period of development are described as dual language learners. Prekindergarten teachers play a critical role in providing language and literacy instruction for DLLs, therefore their level of self-efficacy must become a focus of research.This research study includes twelve interviews with preschool teachers who worked in classrooms with DLLs full time/throughout the school year. The qualitative data was descriptive and thematic. Findings from this study indicated that participants perceived self-efficacy related to their instructional practice with DLLs was influenced by instructional successes. Contextual factors such as consideration of the whole child, home environment, home, and school connections, and positive learning environment were found to contribute to DLLs' learning and prekindergarten teachers perceived self-efficacy. Future research should include the areas of embedded professional development opportunities, varied approaches to assessing DLLs and increasing access to language and literacy materials for non-majority DLLs. |
