Abstract

An understanding of the relationship between lecturers’ beliefs on teaching functions and lecturers’ teaching practices is important for the improvement of lecturers’ professional development. There have been few types of research conducted regarding lecturers’ beliefs about teaching and the interrelationship with teaching practices. Therefore, there are questions on the influence of beliefs on teaching functions and practices among lecturers at community colleges. This research aims to study the influences of the lecturers’ beliefs on teaching functions and practices and how the demographic factors affect this relationship. Altogether 314 lecturers of Community Colleges of Yemen responded to the survey. This research used Structural Equation Modeling to test the hypothesis of this study about the relationship and the effect of lecturers’ beliefs on teaching functions on their teaching practices. The findings showed that there was a good significant effect on the relationship between lecturers’ beliefs on teaching functions and their teaching practices.
