초록

Innovation in assessment through teacher collaboration has recently been given more attention in studies of school innovation. Although previous studies have investigated the various effects of teachers’ networks with a focus on reading and mathematics subjects, teachers’ networks for student assessment have not been examined. Thus, I explored teachers’ networks for student assessment within elementary schools. Two research questions were generated: (1) What are the similarities and differences between various teachers’ networks for student assessment within elementary schools? (2) Which factors affect teachers’ networks for student assessment within elementary schools? For these questions, p* models through SIENA software were used. The dependent variable was teachers’ networks for student assessment within elementary schools, while the independent variables were formal positions, teaching experience, self-contained teachers and professional development in assessment of 513 elementary teachers in 20 schools in 2014. The results showed that (1) differences (quantity of ties) and similarities (fewer mutual ties than asymmetric ties) in teachers’ networks for student assessment existed across 20 elementary schools. (2) the factors affecting teachers’ networks for student assessment within elementary schools were network variables (reciprocity and transitivity), individual-level variables (professional development in assessment, formal positions), and dyadic-level variables (similarity in self-contained teachers). Based on these results, discussion and conclusion are provided with focus on elementary school innovation.
