University teacher education programs establish partnerships with P-12 schools, in part to place their teacher education candidates in a learning environment that allows candidates to work with a diverse population of learners. The purpose of this study was to examine three universities in regard to the partnerships utilized for field and clinical preparation of teacher candidates. The study addressed the types of collaboration and partnerships that have been established between university teacher preparation programs and P-12 schools, the design and implementation of field experiences and clinical practices, teacher candidate evaluation, and the collection and dissemination of field and clinical data to stakeholders.
