Abstract

There is considerable interest in the conceptualization and design of the clinical components of teacher preparation programs generally; and a growing interest in inquiry-oriented programs. This study sought to determine perceptions of the degree of implementation of an inquiry-oriented student teaching curriculum at the University of Northern Iowa. Subjects of the study were 110 student teachers who were completing their student teaching requirements; 94 cooperating teachers; and 7 university supervisors. The subjects responded to a questionnaire on how well the following major components of the curriculum were implemented: (1) teacher-student conferences; (2) student teachers' reflective journals; (3) student teacher participation in action research; (4) sharing of action research projects regularly in seminars; and (5) teaching activities (assumption of responsibility; planning; materials preparation; and student assessment). Findings indicated a high degree of implementation in all components. The paper describes the results of this implementation program. Implications for inquiry and reflective teaching methods are presented; and suggestions for improving clinical aspects of such programs are described. Participant responses on the implementation of each of the curriculum components are presented in tables and graphs. (JD)
