I am looking for sources to learn more about teachers attitudes and beliefs regarding to change and curriculum implementation.
Dear Yasin
Banning's work (1954) would be a good place to start:
Article Teacher Attitudes toward Curriculum Change
After that I suggest you search for "teachers attitudes towards curriculum change" in ResearchGate or Google Scholar. There are multiple papers by a range of different researchers - some relate to a specific phase (age range) of education, others a specific county and finally others which relate to a single subject.
Its tough to recommend others without knowing more detail
Best wishes
David
Teachers with positive attitude will donate optimistically to the achievement of inclusion while those with negative attitudes are likely to frustrate all the laid down processes and proceedings for successful execution of the inclusive practice
If I were you, I shall carry out a questionnaire about the teachers' attitudes & beliefs toward curricula , changes done on them, who did the changes, and what are the effects upon the implementation of the changes.
A sample of 100 teachers (females & males) is adequate. Please let them answer the questions without giving their names to assure them that their participation will be confidential.
Take into account that teachers will refrain from providing good answers in countries that may harm them if they express their views frankly (such as when they say that the educational system is a big failure). In such countries, if the response comes from 70 persons out of 100 then this is an achievement !
Teachers hold the key to the curriculum process. Using a wide variety of techniques, teachers encourage learning by delivering content in creative and impactful ways
Thanks everybody. Nizar Matar I actually want to research about the change effect of Professional Development designed by the curriculum provider on teachers attitude toward the curriculum. But the above question is to reach more concrete literature review sources such David Wooff suggested article.
