Teacher Education and Student Teachers' Commitment to Teaching: A Thematic Literature Review
Africa Education Review, v18 n3-4 p75-92 2021
Teacher education is a symbolic entry point into the teaching profession and the identification of specific teacher education aspects that enhance commitment to teaching is important. A thematic literature review was carried out to identify these themes within teacher education. The review included 22 peer-reviewed articles. Eleven themes were extracted that can influence student teachers' commitment to teaching, which were related to student teachers' campus-based experiences, their school-based experiences, and the connection between theory and practical components of the course. Conclusively, implications for teacher education emphasise student teachers' commitment enhancement.
