Collective Teacher Self-Efficacy [CTSE-12]

Analysis

The questionnaire typically includes a series of statements through which teachers assess their belief in their collective contribution to student education. These statements generally relate to their ability to foster learning, address classroom challenges, and collaborate effectively as a team.

Objective

The primary objective of the questionnaire is to measure teachers’ belief in their ability to positively impact student learning as part of a group. It aims to assess the collective self-efficacy of educators, which is crucial for achieving educational goals and improving student outcomes.

Scoring

Scoring is usually done using agreement or belief scales, where teachers are asked to indicate the extent to which they agree with each statement in the questionnaire. The aggregation of responses provides a score that reflects the collective self-efficacy of the teaching team.
