TOWARD A FRAMEWORK FOR CREATIVE TEACHER PREPARATION
- Date Issued:
- 2023
- Abstract/Description:
- This mixed methods study investigated the effectiveness of a novel educational framework, Creative Teacher Preparation (CTP), in enhancing the creative teaching abilities of undergraduate education students during field-based learning. The study focused on pre-service teachers enrolled in an undergraduate program designed for initial certification. The CTP framework is a synthesis of Lin's Creative Pedagogy and elements from traditional teacher preparation models. Within the CTP framework, teacher candidates engaged in an eight-week seminar designed to improve their understanding of creative pedagogy and prepare them to implement creative teaching strategies during field-based learning. Employing an bb, the study consisted of two phases: an initial phase utilizing semi-structured interviews and field notes for data collection, followed by a final phase using a modified version of the Creativity Fostering Teacher Behaviors Index (CFTBIndex) (Soh, 2000). A control group was also observed to assess the statistical significance of the impact of the CTP framework, implemented through the eight-week seminar, on participants' creative teaching approaches.
