How Does Faculty Perception Influence Teaching Efficacy?: The Dual Mediating Effects of Facilitating and Satisfaction

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to verify the relationship between faculties’ perception of needs for online education on facilitating, satisfaction, and teaching efficacy. We conducted samples from 121 faculties enrolled in Korean colleges through an online survey. The results of this study are as follows: First, there was a significant relationship between faculties’ perception of needs for online education and teaching efficacy. Second, we confirmed the mediating effect of facilitating the relationship between the perception of needs for online education and satisfaction. Third, we also confirmed the mediating effect of satisfaction on the relationship between facilitating and teaching efficacy. Fourth, we verified facilitating and satisfaction have a dual mediating effect on the relationship between the perception of needs for online education and teaching efficacy. In conclusion, this study presented significant implications for HRD in the aspect of providing or supporting faculty.
