Abstract: (1265 Views)
Despite the paramount importance of fostering a spirit of cooperation within educational systems and recognizing the pivotal role of teachers in enhancing the quality of the teaching and learning process, there remain notable deficiencies and limitations in achieving this objective. Identifying these shortcomings and devising strategies for improvement and assurance has become an imperative necessity. In light of this, the present study was undertaken with the primary goal of conducting a qualitative exploration of a model aimed at enhancing the collaborative spirit among teachers. The research methodology employed in this study was qualitative, utilizing a grounded theory approach. The research sample comprised 19 individuals who were closely connected to the research subject, selected through purposeful sampling. Data collection was facilitated through semi-structured interviews. In the initial open coding phase, a total of over 195 preliminary codes were identified. After further refinement and consolidation of similar codes during the axial coding stage, 77 distinct codes were delineated. Subsequently, during the selective coding stage, these concepts were organized into a model designed to enhance group cooperation among school teachers, consisting of 12 components, 21 indicators, and 77 codes following further refinement. In summary, the resulting model highlights the central phenomenon of elevating the spirit of cooperation among teachers. Within this model, strategic factors encompass managerial and behavioral components, while causal conditions encompass social, personal, and educational components. Intervening conditions involve entrepreneurial and legal components, and the outcomes comprise components related to teachers' voice and communication. Contextual conditions encompass economic, environmental, and cultural components. These findings offer valuable insights for planning and designing interventions aimed at fostering a cooperative spirit among teachers.
