| The major purpose of the present study was to examine the differences between professional competencies of Iranian EFL Teachers at Public and private sectors and the role of gender, field of study, educational status, and years of teaching experience in Iranian EFL teachers’ competencies. A sample of 300 EFL Iranian teachers were chosen based on convenience sampling and were assessed through the EFL Teachers’ Professional Competencies scale. After gathering the questionnaires, data was analysed by SPSS. According to the results, 1. There were significant differences between Iranian EFL teachers at public and private sectors with respect to their level of competencies, and teachers at private sectors had higher levels of competencies, 2. There were significant differences between male and female EFL teachers with respect to their competencies, 3. There were positive significant relationships between the four sub-constructs of teachers’ competencies and experience, 4. There was a significant difference betweenfour types of field of study (teaching English, English literature, English translation and others) with respect to their competencies, and those majoring in teaching English had the highest level of competencies, and 5. There were significant differences among three educational levels (BA, MA, and PhD) with respect to their competencies, with PhD and BA holders having the highest and lowest levels of competencies, respectively. This study may be the only piece of research that has increased EFL professionals’, including EFL teachers’, knowledge regarding factors affecting their competencies. Also, the results of this study can be used by teacher employment institutes such as language institutes, and education and training organizations to employ the most competent EFL teachers. | ||

| چکیده [English] | ||
| هدف اصلی این پژوهش، بررسی تفاوت صلاحیتهای حرفهای معلمان زبان ایرانی در دو بخش دولتی و خصوصی و ارتباط صلاحیتهای حرفهای با جنسیت، رشتۀ تحصیلی، میزان تحصیلات و تجربۀ تدریس معلمان بوده است. شرکتکنندگان این تحقیق 300 معلم زبان انگلیسی بودند که ازطریق نمونهگیری آسان انتخاب شدند و با استفاده از مقیاس صلاحیتهای حرفهای معلمان زبان انگلیسی بهعنوان زبان بیگانه مورد ارزیابی قرار گرفتند. پس از جمعآوری پرسشنامهها از نرم افزار اسپیاساس برای تحلیل دادهها استفاده شد. براساس نتایج به دست آمده: 1) از نظر سطح صلاحیتها، تفاوت معناداری میان معلمان زبان انگلیسی در دوبخش خصوصی و دولتی وجود داشت، به طوری که معلمان زبان بخش خصوصی دارای صلاحیت بالاتری نسبت به بخش دولتی بودند، 2) از نظر صلاحیتهای حرفهای، تفاوت میان معلمان زن و مرد معنادار بود، 3) رابطۀ میان چهار مولفۀ صلاحیتهای حرفهای معلمان ایرانیِ زبان انگلیسی و سابقۀ تدریس آنها معنادار و مثبت بود، 4) میان صلاحیت حرفهای معلمان دارای تحصیلات در هریک از چهار گروه مورد بررسی (آموزش زبان انگلیسی، ادبیات انگلیسی، مترجمی و سایر رشتهها) تفاوت معناداری نشان داد، به طوری که معلمان دارای تحصیلات در رشتۀ آموزش زبان انگلیسی، بالاترین سطح صلاحیتها را دارا بودند و 5) تفاوت میان صلاحیتهای حرفهای سه سطح دانشگاهی معنادار بود. معلمان با سطح تحصیلات دکتری بالاترین و معلمان دارای مدرک کارشناسی، پایینترین سطح صلاحیتها را به خود اختصاص دادند. این تحقیق شاید تنها پژوهشی باشد که آگاهیِ متخصصان آموزش انگلیسی بهعنوان زبان بیگانه (ازجمله، معلمان زبان انگلیسی) را نسبت به عوامل موثر بر صلاحیتهای حرفهایشان افزایش میدهد. یافتههای این پژوهش همچنین میتواند به نهادهای استخدام و تربیتکنندۀ معلم، مانند موسسههای زبان انگلیسی و سازمانهای تربیت معلم در جذب نیروهای دارای صلاحیت بالاتر کمک کند. | ||
