Investigation of Self-Sufficiency Levels of High School Teachers in Terms of Participation in Project Competitions as Consultants

The aim of this study is to examine the level of self-sufficiency of high school teachers in terms of participation in project competitions as consultants, and the change in self-sufficiency levels in terms of demographic variables. When the obtained data were examined, it was determined that the teachers' self-sufficiency levels for participating in the project competitions were high. It was found that there was no statistically significant difference between the self-sufficiency of male and female teachers and that teachers who took courses in scientific research methods had higher self-sufficiency levels than those who did not take these courses. Teachers with post-graduate education were found to have higher levels of self-sufficiency when compared to teachers at bachelor's degree level. In addition, it was found that the teachers working in the city had a higher self-sufficiency than the teachers working in the districts and towns
