Effects of learning strategies on self- efficacy of bilingual students in a middle grade school setting Julissa Garcia

Bilingual Education According to Brisk (1999), Children who go into New York City School systems and are not dominant in the English language, are usually placed in School Settings where they are positioned in an Immersed English only classroom setting, or placed in a English as a Second Language curriculum. They are often placed in unfamiliar and uncomfortable classroom settings to learn the English language.

Self-Efficacy  Albert Bandura defines self-efficacy as people’s beliefs about their capabilities to produce designated levels of performance that exercise influence over events that affect their lives.

The purpose of this study  The purpose of this study will be to examine the effects of learning strategies on self- efficacy of bilingual students in a middle grade school setting.

Research Hypotheses & Questions Research Hypotheses. Effective learning strategies will increase motivation in bilingual students. Descriptive questions. How frequently do bilingual students study? Inferential questions. Does participating in these bilingual classes help these students motivate themselves to learn?

Participants Participants in this study will be 8th grade bilingual students in the Bronx, NY. Results will be obtained from 50 eight-grade bilingual students in a public school in the Bronx, NY. The school population compromises 33% Black, 65% Hispanic, and 2.0% Asian. The student body includes 17% of which are bilingual students.

The researcher will collect data over a weeklong period using the general self-efficacy scale (GSE) survey to students at the school counselor’s office. Survey responses will then be collected and analyzed. The scores will be compared and conclusions will be drawn based on the findings. Data Collection Procedures

Pilot Study  A Pilot study will be conducted a week before the actual study to determine the length of time needed and to identify if the questions are easy to comprehend. The study will be timed and recorded of any discrepancies. This information will allow the researcher to determine the actual length of time and ease of the survey. Participants in this pilot study will not be the same participants used for the actual study.

Benefits of this study  The benefits of this study will be to further research the effectiveness of learning methods for grade school bilingual students whom are frequently placed in uncomfortable and unfamiliar classroom settings, in an attempt to reach self-efficacy through educational guidance.
