Abstract

This study investigated the level of teacherpreneur competency among pre-service teachers (n = 400), with an additional 400 pilot participants from the same academic context invited for exploratory factor analysis and reliability analysis. A self-reported questionnaire, adapted from the Teacherpreneur Competency Model (TCM), was used to assess participants’ competency across four key domains: pedagogical, social, personality, and professional. The findings revealed that pre-service teachers possessed high levels of teacherpreneur competency, with Pedagogical Competency scoring the highest and Personality Competency scoring the lowest. These results suggest that while pre-service teachers have a solid foundation in delivering instruction, targeted interventions are needed within teacher education programs to nurture their entrepreneurial spirit and foster the social and personal attributes associated with teacherpreneurship. This study underscores the importance of integrating comprehensive competency development into teacher education curricula to better prepare future educators for the dynamic demands of the teaching profession.
释放高等教育中教师创业的潜能:验证能力测量量表
本研究调查了职前教师(n = 400)的教师创业能力水平,并邀请来自同一学术环境的另外 400 名试点参与者进行探索性因素分析和可靠性分析。根据教师创业能力模型(TCM)改编的自我报告问卷用于评估参与者在教学、社会、个性和专业四个关键领域的能力。研究结果显示,职前教师具备较高的教师创业能力,其中教学能力得分最高,人格能力得分最低。这些结果表明,尽管职前教师在授课方面有坚实的基础,但仍需要在师范教育项目中采取有针对性的干预措施,培养他们的创业精神,并培养与教师创业相关的社会和个人特质。本研究强调了将综合能力培养纳入师范教育课程的重要性,以便让未来的教育工作者更好地适应教师职业的动态需求。
