Professional Identity and Self-efficacy of Physical Education Teachers in Xingyi Middle Schools

Abstract

The professional identity and self-efficacy of physical education teachers directly affect the development of school sports and the physical health development of students. Whether physical education teachers identify with their profession and have a high sense of self-efficacy determines whether they can actively implement relevant national policies and whether they have a high sense of responsibility to value the physical health development of students.This study takes secondary school physical education teachers in Xingyi City as an example, with professional identity and self-efficacy as the research core. The differences in professional identity and self-efficacy were analyzed from the aspects of gender, teaching experience, education, and professional title, and the correlation between professional identity and self-efficacy was analyzed. The aim is to explore the characteristics and interrelationships of self-efficacy and professional identity among middle school physical education teachers in Xingyi City. Through research, researchers have proposed an action plan to enhance the professional identity and self-efficacy of secondary school physical education teachers in Xingyi City.
