| Abstract | The 'Sankofa' scale was constructed on the basis of perceptions of students about culturally relevant teaching and learning methods. This study established the construct validity of the scale. Participants (n = 171) who were students from a historically black university, reported their agreement regarding the presence and importance of teaching strategies on a Likert-type scale. 'Relevance' of the teaching strategy was computed based on the multiplicative function of the reported presence and importance. Results of a factor analyses identified 8 factors which students deemed relevant to their learning. To establish construct validity, variables such as racial identity, academic confidence, and academic success were included on the survey. The following measures were used to assess racial identity and academic confidence, the Black Identity Development Scale, and the Academic Confidence scale. Academic success was defined as the student grade point average (GPA). Results indicated significant relationships between specific items on the Sankofa scale, specific subscales on the racial identity scale, as well as academic confidence and GPA. These results will enable educators to be responsive to the needs of the diverse student body. Establishing the scale's construct validity is important to help guide academicians in the realm of scholarly teaching and learning. (As Provided). |
