Changes in teacher candidates' beliefs about education.
Abstract
The present study examined trends in 84 teacher candidates' educational beliefs over time. Participants were enrolled in several sections of an introductory-level education class at a southeastern university. These participants were administered the Witcher-Travers Survey of Educational Beliefs (WTSEB) both on the first day of class and at the end of the one-semester course. Low scores on the WTSEB indicate a proclivity toward transmissivism and high scores suggest a tendency toward progressivism. At the end of the course, participants demonstrated a more progressive orientation.
