Description
Summary:This thesis is a qualitative study which critically examined the experiences encountered by student art teachers in order to discuss the implications of those experiences for secondary school cooperating teachers. The methodology consists of interviewing selected former student art teachers and describing their shared thoughts and feelings. The data is comprised of transcripts of interviews wherein the participants relate experiences that occurred during their internships. The analyses consist of compiling and summarizing all of the responses according to each interview question, comparing those to my experience as a student art teacher and supporting the results with related literature. The conclusion reviews what was learned from the experiences of student teaching and offers suggestions for cooperating teachers.
