What the Teaching Perspectives of Cooperating Teachers Tell US about Their Advisory Practices
Clarke, A.; Jarvis-Selinger, S.
Teaching and Teacher Education: An International Journal of Research and Studies, v21 n1 p65-78 Jan 2005
This study drew upon the recently developed Teaching Perspectives Inventory (TPI) to compare and contrast the teaching perspectives of cooperating teachers against a range of demographic data specific to cooperating teachers. The outcomes indicate, among other things, that a high percentage of cooperating teachers base their pedagogical relationship with learners upon a Nurturing perspective, that a Social Reform perspective among cooperating teachers is almost non-existent, and that a Transmission perspective is more prominent at the secondary school level than at other school levels. Collectively, the insights from this study provide one of the most comprehensive surveys of a single cohort of cooperating teachers reported in the literature.
