Management of Classroom Behaviors: Perceived Readiness of Education Interns
Garland, Dennis; Garland, Krista Vince; Vasquez, Eleazar, III
Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, v13 n2 p133-147 May 2013
Education students at a large research university participated in internships during their final semesters as part of their respective programs of study as a capstone experience. Qualitative and quantitative methods were used
to collect data on the perceptions of interns' readiness and knowledge of evidence-based practices to manage classroom behaviors for students with exceptionalities in inclusive settings. Emergent themes include general feeling of readiness to manage classroom behaviors. However, a desire for earlier access to actual classroom experiences was also expressed, as was the desire for greater instruction in evidence-based practices to manage behaviors for students with exceptionalities. (Contains 4 tables.)
