Teacher Expectancy and Mathematics Achievement
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1970The phenomenon of experimenter bias (E-bias) was investigated in a fourth-grade arithmetic lesson by using a modified programmed learning task on division in the five-family (five is one of the factors.) E-bias predicts a relation between teacher expectancies and outcomes despite standardization of tasks. Six schools were randomly assigned across three
