Title A name given to the resource TEACHING PRACTICE SUPERVISION AND ASSESSMENT AS A QUALITY ASSURANCE TOOL IN TEACHER TRAINING: PERCEPTIONS OF PROSPECTIVE TEACHERS AT MASVINGO TEACHER TRAINING COLLEGES Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource ROSEMARY NGARA RICHARD NGWARAI RODGERS NGARA Description An account of the resource eaching practice (T.P.) is a critical stage in the training of prospective teachers as it is a process of producing a master teacher. There are many mechanisms that are put in place to make T.P. a beneficial experience to trainee teachers and student supervision is a part of one of such mechanisms. Supervision and assessment of the trainee teachers is done by the college and mentors and members of the administration at the schools where students conduct their teaching practice. There are, however, some problems associated with supervision. For instance, supervisors give conflicting suggestions and sometimes supervision is ill-timed or delayed. A survey was conducted in Masvingo urban schools to determine views of prospective teachers and student teacher supervisors on the effectiveness of T.P supervision as a tool in quality assurance. By and large, participants regarded supervision and assessment as an indispensable tool in assuring quality in teacher training. Nevertheless, some variables were viewed as affecting the effectiveness of supervision. Among them were delays in supervision, supervision being far- spaced from each other, little or no dialogue and lack of consensus on the part of supervisors in dealing with similar issues. Among other things, the study recommended the running of workshops on T.P supervision by training colleges for Teaching Practice supervisors at all levels Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available European Social Sciences Research Journal Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2013 prospective teachers student teacher supervision teaching practice
