Immersing Teacher Candidates in Experiential Learning: Cohorts, Learning Communities, and Mentoring
Jay, Jordan; Miller, Howard
Global Education Review, v3 n4 p169-175 2016
In this article, we present three models of teacher preparation programs that immersed their candidates in experiential learning aimed at bringing together theory and practice. We identify the key components that can be generalized from studying such programs, examine factors that led to their dismantling, and propose a potentially more sustainable model.
