Online Teaching Self-efficacy of Group Counseling Instructors during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Abstract:
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many counseling-related programs switched to online teaching modalities. Group counseling instructors may face various challenges in teaching group counseling courses online. With a mixed-method design, this study explored group counseling instructors' online teaching self-efficacy by collecting survey responses from 39 group counseling instructors and interviewing eight instructors from the programs accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP). The instructors demonstrated a general high teaching self-efficacy with concerns about students' engagement. Facilitating and hindering factors related to online teaching self-efficacy are identified. Implications and recommendations for instructors, counseling-related programs, and the counseling profession are also discussed.
