Description
Summary:Objective : Over time, there has been a transition from traditional learning environments to electronic learning environments. As a result, researchers have directed their attention towards examining the competencies of teachers in the e-learning setting. The aim of the present study was to develop a professional competence model that pertains to teachers functioning within the electronic learning environment of primary schools located in Qom. Methods: A qualitative research approach was employed, specifically utilizing the phenomenological method. The targeted sample consisted of 12 experts in the field of primary education in Qom. Data analysis was conducted following the three steps of the phenomenological method. The instrument employed was a semi-structured survey. Results: The findings revealed that the professional competency model for teachers in the e-learning environment comprised 47 primary codes, 17 subcategories, and 5 final categories. Consequently, a professional competence model for teachers in the e-learning environment was devised and presented, encompassing five dimensions: moral, educational, social, personal, and educational-occupational. Conclusions: This model can be useful for future research and educational settings that share similar characteristics.
