DEVELOPMENT OF SELF-EFFICACY IN CHILD EDUCATORS THROUGH THE WORKSHOP APPROACH. INTERVENTION AND DATA ANALYSIS

Abstract

The present research work focused on a training course related to L-19 art. 5 D.LGS. 13 April 2017, no. 65. The sample, which participated in the experimentation, is part of a very large group of students who have to complete the degree course. The identification of the need was detected by the qualitative analysis of the students (with the help of questionnaires and autobiographical writing), over the last two years (Demetrio, 1995; 2000). The survey revealed difficulties in managing emotions in particular, in complex situations. Hence the research hypothesis: that is, whether workshop learning can affect the development of educators' emotional maturity and consequently the development of the perception of self-efficacy in complex situations. The work, therefore, aims to establish whether there is a connection between the workshop approach and the development of emotional competence and perceived self-efficacy in complex situations.
