The data obtained with the data collection tools were analyzed statistically by using SPSS 29.0 statistical package program. When the descriptive analysis results showing the level of classroom teachers' self-efficacy towards using creative drama method and their attitudes towards creative drama method were examined; it was found that classroom teachers' self-efficacy towards using creative drama method was high, while their attitudes towards creative drama method were at a medium level.
