Abstract
This qualitative study explores teacher candidates' self-efficacy in the application of culturally responsive pedagogy (CRP) as measured by Siwatu's (2007) Culturally Responsive Teaching Self-Efficacy Scale and examines those perceptions considering candidates' performance on targeted rubrics of the Educative Teacher Performance Assessment ( edTPA), required for initial licensure in the state of Connecticut. Pearson's official edTPA scores on two relevant rubrics were analyzed with survey results to ascertain whether perceived abilities align with target scores indicating learner-ready teachers. Participant interviews provide a third data point for triangulation and further validation while illuminating other factors related to CRP implementation during the candidates' residency.
