Early Childhood Teacher Education and Certification.
Spodek, Bernard; And Others
A 23-item questionnaire was mailed to teacher education institutions in the United States that offer programs to prepare early childhood teachers. The questionnaire surveyed the institutions' early childhood teacher education programs, their relationship to state teacher certification requirements, and the nature of the programs' field experiences. A total of 497 questionnaires were distributed. Of these, 202 were returned from institutions located in 47 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico. The frequency of responses for each item was tallied and analyzed. Items requiring open-ended responses were considered according to a content analysis procedure suggested by Krippendorff (1980). Results are reported and discussed, and an address is provided for those wishing to obtain copies of the questionnaire. (RH)
