Check out this paper, written by Patricia A. Bauch, who worked closely with John I. Goodlad for many years. I think she pinpoints the relationship between teachers' educational beliefs and educational practice (curriculum and classroom).
In my own research I have explored Beliefs (among other cognitions from practical knowledge) related to instructional decision making and curriculum design (within the broader context of technology in education).
Excellent topic and the key to understanding effective practice is to look at beliefs and values. A colleague of mine has done a great deal of work in this area. I have pasted below the link to his work on research gate. Cheers, Kevin.
Doreen, I'm writing my Bachelor thesis on implict attitudes of teachers at the moment (review, comparing methods, operationalisation). If you can wait for a month or so I can send you an up to date publication list (or if you are using citavi share my project with you). Unfortunately the thesis itself will be in German, but if you are really interested I can write a summary in English afterwards.
And of course I'm interested in publications as well :)
If you think on cultural influences or the influence of education you might check out for the works of Silvija Markic on teachers beliefs about the classroom learning envrionment in science education. Her works are given in ResearchGate, Among others, these are some later papers refering also to earlier works, e.g.
Markic, S., & Eilks, I. (2013). Prospective chemistry teachers' beliefs about teaching and learning – A cross-level study. International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 11, 979-998.
