The Effect of Teacher’s Awareness of Action Research on Iranian EFL Teachers’ Self-Efficacy

In spite of the significance of action research in teacher education, there is a limited number of research studies worked on the influence of action research on teachers’ self-efficacy. The present study carried out by the researcher in order to investigate the effect of awareness of action research on teachers’ self-efficacy. The study was conducted in a pretest – posttest repeated measure design. The researcher used Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale. The researcher selected two groups of EFL teachers (control and experimental group) teaching in Hafez Language Institute in Mashhad. In this case, the Teacher Sense of Efficacy scales (TSES) were distributed to 32 teachers to fill out at the beginning of the study. Pre-test self-efficacy showed no big difference between the two groups. This study took advantage of a treatment course of 10 sessions of training action research. The instruments of the present study included Teacher Self-Efficacy Scale and the interview. Finally, the self-efficacy scores of two groups were compared. The results indicated that the efficacy scores of experimental group were higher than that of control group. In other words, participation and awareness of action research had a significant influence on teachers’ self-efficacy.
