Item Investigating teachers’ perceptions of an educational innovation: Single-sex classes in a co-educational school(2013-01-14) Granville, PhebeItem Investigating teachers’ perceptions of an educational innovation: Single-sex classes in a co-educational school(2013-01-14) Granville, PhebeThis study investigated six teachers’ perceptions of the single-sex innovation at a co-educational secondary school in Trinidad and Tobago. Data were collected through interviews. The findings revealed that although most of the teachers believed that the innovation was a good idea, they felt that it was poorly implemented. Analysis of the data also showed that there were minimal benefits and grave behavioural challenges, particularly in the boys’ classes. However, most of the participants stated that there were increased opportunities for building teacher competencies. The teachers all endorsed the continuation of the innovation, but on the condition of the correct implementation procedures.Item Item An investigation into the curriculum implementation from co-ed to single-sex classes: Teachers’ voices(2013-01-02) Jones-Butcher, EnidItem An investigation into the new Administrative Cluster System in early childhood care and education centres in Trinidad: The concerns of three administrators(2013-01-14) Glasgow-Charles, KimberlyItem A study of teachers’ and administrators’ perceptions about the implementation of school based management(2013-01-14) Dookhoo, WendyItem Teacher perceptions on the implementation of the national Continuous Assessment Programme in a primary school in the St. George East Education District in Trinidad and Tobago(2012-05-03) Dowrich, MarvaThis study sought to report the views of primary school teachers as implementers of an innovative National Continuous Assessment Programme (CAP), a reform initiated by the Ministry of Education of Trinidad and Tobago.
