Classroom presentations in methodology courses of teacher training
departments are very practical ways for student teachers to revise
and evaluate themselves in teaching practices. The behaviours of
student teachers during the presentations may be constructive for
their teaching performances. But the success and failure of their
performances may depend on various factors. By assessing the
possible factors, necessary feedback can be provided for creating
consciousness about their performances. One of the factors may be
the degree of their self-efficacy. In this study, therefore, it was
aimed at ascertaining what student teachers think about classroom
presentations, whether their success and failure in their
presentations are affected by the degree of their self-efficacy and
if there is any correlation between their presentation strategies
and the degrees of their self-efficacy. For data collection,
observation reports, interview records and questionnaires were used.
The research findings proved that student teachers had positive
attitudes towards the presentation activities and gained experiences
about teaching practices by applying presentations repeatedly in the
classroom. Moreover, positive correlation between the student
teachers’ presentation performances and their self-efficacy degrees
was ascertained. |
