Adaptation of the Teacher Professional Agency Scale in the Unique Cultural Context of Estonia

Abstract

Teachers' work-related agency has scientific and practical significance. It is associated with redefining pessimistic projects and finding pleasure in the vocation. Measuring this phenomenon among teachers (N=686) in the culturally diverse education context of Estonia, where Estonian language of instruction and Russian instructional language schools historically co-exist, representing two various logics associated with transformation vs reproduction, may lead to valuable results for the advancement of the theoretical concept. The author suggests adapting an already existing tool used in another regional context and across other professional domains. The first measures and implications for further conceptualisation are presented.
