| dc.description.abstract | This study details the use of the Rasch Rating Scale Model (RRSM) to develop and validate a scale designed to measure students' perspectives of the importance of culturally responsive teaching practices. During the scale development and construct validation process, students' perspectives were capture through a series of focus groups. Students reviewed, created, and revised the 55-Likert-like items on the Student Scale of the Importance of Culturally Responsive Teaching Practice. In the operational administration, 222 middle and high school students from a Mid-Atlantic urban school district, a Midwestern suburban school district, and a Southeastern urban school district completed the scale. An analysis of the Rasch-Andrich Thresholds indicated that the rating scale categories are functioning, to some extent, properly. Acceptable fit statistics suggested that the data fit the RSM, and has met the model's specifications. Therefore, the Student Scale of the Importance of Culturally Responsive Teaching Practice is a quality measure that represents invariant measurement. | |
