Abstract

Teacher education is an important component of the education system and aims to improve the teaching skills of prospective teachers. The teaching skills of pre-service teachers are closely related to their professional qualifications. The present study attempts to develop a valid, reliable, multidimensional measurement tool for assessing the perceptions of pre-service teachers about their professional qualifications. The study was designed in survey model and 247 pre-service teachers participated in the study. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis were performed for data analysis. Research results reveal that the developed “Professional Qualification Scale for Pre-service Teachers” is a valid and reliable tool with 0,94 Cronbach alpha value to measure the perception of the pre-service teachers about their competencies. It examines teacher qualifications under 6 dimensions as: Following and Assessing Teaching and Development, Program and Content Knowledge, Personal and Professional Values, School-Family Relations, Professional Development and School Environment.
