Description
Summary:The purpose of this study was to compare the prospective teachers’ attitude before and after teaching practice at master level. Research was quantitative in nature. Population comprised prospective teachers enrolled at Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan (Session: 2016-2018). Only those students, who had completed their teaching practice, were included in the study. The sample of this study was 200 prospective teachers of Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore selected through simple random sampling. It is concluded by the findings that prospective teachers emphasized more on classroom management before and after teaching practice in terms of qualification and age. It was also found that no significance mean difference existed between male and female prospective teachers’ perceptions regarding attitudes towards teaching practice before and after teaching practice. Therefore it was recommended that duration of teaching practice should be extended to at least two terms for developing teaching skills in prospective teachers.
