چکیده | ||
The importance of studying teachers’ identity is to guide teachers to choose an appropriate methodology to teach as well as to lead learners to learn the target language which is related to notion of identity. The present study was an attempt to develop and validate an identity questionnaire regarding English for Academic Purposes (EAP) teachers. In doing so, 350 Iranian EAP teachers from Azad and State universities of Tehran, Qazvin, and Zanjan were selected. Semi-structured interviews were randomly done with 100 teacher participants. In order to develop the EAP Teachers’ Identity Questionnaire (EAPTIQ) in the Iranian context through individual, pedagogical, and social dimension, the related literature was taken into account. A total of 51 items were extracted to develop raw factors of EAPTIQ. They were then factor-analyzed in order to remove the communalities and develop the final version of the questionnaire and determine the main components. Factor analysis resulted in the development of 44-item EAPTIQ with three components: 1) Identity and EAP Teachers’ Self-Efficacy, 2) Identity and EAP Teachers’ Pedagogical Issues, and 3) Identity and EAP Teachers’ Social Issues. Findings of the study can be useful for some people who can benefit from the results namely EAP teachers and researchers. The results contribute to researching EAP teachers’ identity and inform teacher education to provide them with the sufficient and adequate raised awareness to self-develop their identity. | ||

چکیده [English] | ||
اهمیت تحقیق در مورد هویت مدرسان، راهنمایی آنها در انتخاب روش مناسب برای تدریس و همچنین هدایت زبان اموزان به سمت یادگیری زبان مقصد است که با مفهوم هویت مرتبط است. هدف این مطالعه تدوین و اعتبارسنجی پرسشنامه هویت برای مدرسان زبان انگلیسی با اهداف دانشگاهی (EAPTIQ) است. بدین منظور 350 مدرس ایرانی EAPاز دانشگاههای آزاد و دولتی تهران، قزوین و زنجان انتخاب شدند. مصاحبههای نیمه ساختاری به صورت تصادفی با 100 نفر از مدرسان انجام شد. به منظور تدوین پرسشنامه هویت، مطالعات پیشینهی مرتبط در ایران در حیطه اختصاصی، آموزشی و اجتماعی در نظر گرفته شد. در مجموع 51 مورد برای توسعه فاکتورهای خام EAPTIQ استخراج شده و سپس به منظور حذف اشتراکات و تدوین نسخه نهایی پرسشنامه و تعیین مؤلفههای اصلی، آنها را به صورت عاملی تحلیل گردیدند. تحلیل عاملی منجر به ایجاد 44 ماده EAPTIQ با سه مولفه شد: 1) هویت و خودکارآمدی مدرسان EAP، 2) مسائل آموزشی مدرسان EAP و هویتشان 3) مسائل اجتماعی مدرسانEAP و هویتشان. یافتههای این مطالعه میتواند برای برخی از افرادی که میتوانند از نتایج آن بهرهمند شوند، یعنی مدرسان انگلیسی برای اهداف دانشگاهی و پژوهشگران در این زمینه مفید باشد. نتایج به تحقیق در مورد هویت مدرسان EAP و اطلاع رسانی به آموزش مدرسان کمک میکند تا آگاهی کافی برای خودسازی هویت خود را در اختیار آنها قرار دهد. | ||
