This presentation examined the preparation of vocational | |
teacher educators for the present and the future. | |
Traditional preparation has been effective in providing | |
students with highly specialized knowledge, but the | |
greatest need of the present and future was seen as | |
providing vocational teachers and vocational teacher | |
educators who are responsive and sensitive to the needs | |
of youth and adults of all elements of our society. | |
Competencies identified by the authors for our constantly | |
changing society were a broad knowledge of the | |
foundations of vocational education, broad and thorough | |
knowledge of professional education principles and | |
practices, broad knowledge in the supporting social | |
sciences, broad understanding of research procedures and | |
techniques and adequate background in an occupational | |
field for a teacher educator's relevant application of | |
educational principles. Features noted as essential to | |
the vocational teacher educator program were | |
comprehensiveness, integration, and coordination along | |
with institutional commitment, a single administrative | |
unit, experienced committed faculty, recruitment of | |
graduate students with "new" concepts, a program of | |
studies of both formal course work and activities | |
(seminars, practicums, internships, and research), and an | |
inservice program for vocational teacher educators. (EA) | |
