Abstract
This study explored the collective teaching efficacy (CTE) and its influencing factors on the in-service teaching performance of pre-service teachers. The study, through purposive sampling, involved 301 graduating pre-service teachers from a state university in Laguna, Philippines. Multiple regression analysis was used to determine significant predictors of pre-service teachers’ performance. Results showed that pre-service teachers had high levels of CTE and that influencing factors of teaching efficacy were well-manifested. The respondents’ in-service teaching performance was outstanding, and there was a weak to moderate correlation between CTE, influencing factors, and pre-service teachers’ performance. Furthermore, the construct of CTE (vicarious experience) and influencing factors (knowledge, perceived personality factors, and resource provision) were significant predictors of pre-service teachers’ performance. The findings of this study have implications for the design and implementation of pre-service teacher development training programs. By enhancing pre-service teachers’ collective efficacy and addressing the influencing factors of teaching efficacy, such programs can help promote effective teaching practices and better student outcomes. The study suggests that pre-service teacher education programs should provide opportunities for pre-service teachers to observe experienced teachers, acquire knowledge and skills related to teaching, develop their perceived personality factors, and access adequate resources to enhance their teaching efficacy. The study also provides insights into the importance of building a supportive learning environment that fosters a sense of collective efficacy among pre-service teachers.
