Description
Summary:Two hundred seventy-one graduates of 19 University of Massachusetts alternative teacher preparation programs rated these alternative programs on 48 variables. Questions on training, classroom teaching experience, program affiliation, and current employment status were included. The hypothesis that students who were enrolled in different teacher education programs would have distinguishable differences in attitude, employment experience, and so on, was supported. The graduates tended to agree on their perceptions of each program, but differed greatly on whether these program characteristics were rated favorably or unfavorably. The results are briefly compared to the findings of a similar study conducted among the previous year's graduates. Tabular data which present the overall results of the questionnaire, as well as a comparative analysis of the program variables, are appended. (Author/MV)
