Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

In this research, with respect to the CAEP/NCATE’s Blue Ribbon ten design principles, a MiddleEastern university that was undergoing accreditation process was evaluated for the aptness of its student teaching program based on the ten designated principles. Questionnaires were distributed to 13 college supervisors and 95 cooperating teachers. The results revealed consistent degrees of
satisfaction towards the program implemented based on the principles. A major implication was the capability of current program to proceed towards transformation based on the respondents’ perceptions. Further recommendations are provided for institutions seeking international accreditation.
