Egyptian industrial education teachers perceived computer self efficacy

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the relation between the Egyptian Industrial Education Teachers' demographic characteristics and their perceived computer self-efficacy. The target population of the study was in-service teachers at Industrial Secondary Schools. Thus, participants consisted of 66 in-service teachers (architecture specialists) in Desouk and Foh industrial secondary schools (Kafr El-Sheikh Governorate), and Badr Industrial Schools (Assiut Governorate), Egypt. The “Perceived Computer Self-Efficacy” scale developed by Askar and Umay (DTAE) was used for collecting data. To accomplish the research objectives, standard deviation, average, ANOVA, and Post-Hoc Tukey HSD tests were used in data analysis. The statistical significance level was accepted as .05 in the study. Results show that there is a significant difference in teachers' age, computer experience level, computer training level and graduation college according to the perceived computer self-efficacy. Also, there is no significant difference among those in-service teachers' perceived computer self-efficacy according to their major. Key words: Perceived computer self-efficacy, industrial education teachers.
