Psychometric properties of the ProficiencyIn+E rubric: Self-evaluation of teaching skills

Abstract

Abstract The aim of this article is to present the results of the empirical validation of the PROFICIENCyIn\u2009+\u2009E rubric for teacher self-evaluation, which allows us to know to what extent primary and secondary teachers consider themselves competent in eleven of the key competencies that have been identified through the review of the literature. The rubric has an online format and digital access through a learning management system aimed at schools. After completing it, teachers receive a personalized report on their competence profile. The reliability results show acceptable indices of internal consistency and empirical validation through the Multidimensional Non-Metre Scaling (PROXSCAL) procedure, suggesting that the rubric is an effective tool to evaluate teaching skills in non-university teaching. The use of this tool offers real opportunities for self-improvement and reflection amongst teachers related to their competencies and how to plan their professional development.
