The increasing popularity of including environmental topics and issues in school curricula has created a need for effective environmental education teachers. One way to evaluate teacher effectiveness is through teacher efficacy, a belief measure that evaluates a teacher's perception that he/she can teach effectively. Research suggests that teachers’ instructional decisions are influenced by their beliefs, which are framed by their personal experiences. Because teacher efficacy is content specific, the purpose of this study was to develop a survey, the Environmental Education Teacher Efficacy Belief Instrument (EETEBI), to measure the teacher efficacy beliefs of preservice teachers as they relate to environmental education teaching strategies and outcomes.

环境教育教学效能信念仪的研制

在学校课程中包含环境主题和问题的日益流行已经产生了对有效的环境教育教师的需求。评估教师效能的一种方法是通过教师效能，这是一种评估教师对他/她可以有效教学的看法的信念度量。研究表明，教师的教学决定受他们的信念影响，而这些信念是由他们的个人经历构成的。由于教师效能是具体内容，本研究的目的是开展一项调查，即环境教育教师效能信念工具（EETEBI），以衡量与环境教育教学策略和成果相关的职前教师的教师效能信念。
