Piagetian teacher behavioral congruency checklist for analyzing teaching styles¶

Design Method · All design methods
Evidence · no claims cited

Description¶

Mueller's paper translates Piagetian theory into a fifteen-item yes/no behavioral checklist covering environment organization, heterogeneous grouping, learner decision-making, cooperative interaction, active methods, error acceptance, self-evaluation, and avoidance of conformity-valuing tests. Teachers compute 'Planned' and 'Realized Behavioral Congruency Profiles' from 0% to 100%, and rate any teaching style's 'Structural Congruency' to decide use, modification, or elimination.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

Teachers must score their own planning and implementation against the fifteen behaviors to obtain congruency profiles

Constraints¶

Congruency ratings for some checklist items are instance-specific, meaning a style's score can only be determined after observing a particular implementation

Target Learners¶

school children in physical education settings

Target Goals¶

teaching behaviors consistent with Piagetian developmental theory
