Abstract

This research objectives were : 1) to study the condition and problems of the assessment on the teacher’s teaching competency in primary schools under the Jurisdiction of Office of the Basic Education Commission in the Eastern Region, 2) to create and develop of the assessment competency models on teacher’s teaching in primary schools, under the Jurisdiction of Office of the Basic Education Commission in the Eastern Region, 3) to assess the assessment competency models on teacher’s teaching in the primary schools under the Jurisdiction of Office of the Basic Education Commission in the Eastern Region.  There were 3 steps to process the research as follows:  Step 1. To study and assess on teacher’s teaching competency in primary schools by interviewing.  The primary schools directors and the expert teachers who taught at the primary school level. Step 2.

Data was collected from the sample group of 112 people by the specific identification method.  The sample group consisted of the primary schools directors and the expert teacher’s of 42 people and the 70 expert on teacher’s teaching in primary schools.  Confirmatory factor analysis was done with LISRIEL, the results were used to create the questionnaires, the content validity was checked by experts.  The consistency of the model was checked with empirical data.
