Analysis of online word of mouth of student teachers in internship - A view on mathematics teaching

Abstract

This study analyzed online word of mouth of student teachers in internship from three groups-general education, special education, and child education at college. The results showed that general subjects, rules and relationship in classroom management and pedagogical content knowledge in teaching methods were the commonly shared concerns for all three groups. The findings can provide the institutes of teacher education some guidelines in designing their internship programs which tailor to the needs of their students. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
