Description

A cross-cultural point of view needs not only describing characteristics of the teaching styles in each country but also comparing them through the common structures. Factor analysis with Procrustes Orthogonal Rotation and Coefficient of Congruence were used to produce scales capable of comparing the teaching styles among the three countries. As for the class management it was found that Japanese and Korean teachers attach importance to the group-based responsibiliy, while teachers in Australia are liable to regulate their pupils their own way. Concerning instructional aspects, teachers among the three countries seemed to have a common and strong belief of motivating their pupils and Australian teachers appeared to put it into practice most clearly. It was shown, moreover, that both the notion of individual guidance and the execution of it were the definite features in elementary school teachers in Australia.
