Enhancing teacher competence through collaborative worksheet development: an empirical investigation

“…Unfortunately, science teachers' competence in several regencies in Indonesia in 2013-2015 was classified as low [2]. Similar things were found in science teachers in Yogyakarta [3], Madiun [4], and Aceh [5].

“…This will make it easier for teachers to deliver teaching materials (Dewi, Budiyanto & Agustedi, 2020).

“…The multicollinearity test aims to detect symptoms of correlation between one independent variable and another independent variable. Sugiyono et al (2017) and Riwukore et al (2021) explained that a good regression model should not correlate with the independent variables. Furthermore, it is explained that the multicollinearity test can be done by looking at the VIF (variance inflation factors) value and the tolerance value.…”
