Check out our self-efficacy poster created by Liwei Wei. This poster reminds us of the teachings from Albert Bandura who said “Beliefs in personal efficacy affect life choices, level of motivation, quality of functioning, resilience to adversity and vulnerability to stress and depression.” See the results of how folks responded to our LinkedIn poll question: Do you believe that we can design learning to promote self-efficacy or a learner’s belief in themselves?
Results
In total, 167 members on LinkedIn participated in this poll, including 129 members from the Instructional Design Central group and 38 member from the Association for Talent Development (ATD) group. 88% of the participants believe we can design learning to promote self-efficacy. Only 4% of the participants think that we cannot design learning that promotes learner’s self-efficacy. 8% of the participants are not sure if we can design learning to preomote self-efficacy.
Self-efficacy definition
Self-efficacy is one’s belief in their ability to achieve something or to succeed in a specific situation.
“Confidence instills confidence!”
-Scott Shapiro
“I believe that the way learning is designed can positively affect learner’s belief in themselves. Effective, detailed feedback can help the learner feel supported.”
-Christi Pino
