TEACHING IN ACTION: AN EXPLORATORY STUDY OF TEACHING STYLES AMONG STUDENT TEACHERS
Abstract
This paper reports on an observational study of
twenty student-teachers. The purpose was to assess the nature
of classroom interactions and examine the findings in the light
of previous research outcomes. Pertinent classroom datafrom
classrooms of student-teachers during their student teaching
practice sessions were critically examined. Results indicated
that the classrooms transactions were limited to narrow
questions, narrow lectures and student responses. Hence,
these components were found to represent the ingredients on
. which language teaching was based in the classrooms of the
student-teachers:
