A GUIDE FOR EVALUATION OF STUDENT CHARACTERISTICS

EMILY ANN REUWSAAT, University of Nebraska - Lincoln

Abstract

Many times the evaluation of the personality characteristics of a teacher candidate is delayed until the actual student teaching, which frequently is included in the final period of the student's college preparation for teaching. If undesirable characteristics are found, it poses a trying situation for both student and counselor or advisor; the elimination of a teacher candidate after near completion of formal preparation is no easy decision for the counselor and institution to make, or for the candidate to accept. A program which provides for an early and continuing evaluation of personality development of teacher-education students should be more efficient for the profession, the institution, and the student. Early effective evaluation would allow the institution two or three years of working with the individual student, aiding in his self-development of personality more promising of teaching success should he be found lacking in certain desirable personal characteristics.
