A study compared instances of self-supervision with more traditional supervision of student teachers to determine the relationships between this variable and teacher attitudes and interaction behavior. Eighty-four secondary education student teachers were engaged in self-supervision, or were more traditionally supervised, or both. Self-supervising…

Minicourse 4 on interaction analysis, an autoinstructional package based on the use of microteaching and the videotape recorder, was designed (1) to train teachers to categorize their own classroom behavior, using Flanders' system, to an 80 percent correct criterion level; (2) to increase frequency in classroom discussions of category 2, 3, and 4…

A new model for in-service and preservice teacher training programs has been developed. The Skill Development in Teaching (SKIT) was suggested by recent research combining two teacher training techniques developed in the past decade, Interaction Analysis and Microteaching. Some educators who have worked with both Interaction Analysis and…

Discusses the effectiveness and the history of a simplified teaching practice, microteaching, which is carried out under controlled conditions using sound and vision feedback to modify operant teacher behavior. (Author/RK)

The goals listed for this second component (of six) of the Instructional Staff Development (ISD) program include introduction to interaction analysis, practice in microteaching, and improvement of individual inquiry behavior. This trainer's manual is plotted concept-by-concept, objective-by-objective, with appropriate charts and tables. The manual…

In a microsupervision workshop experiment designed to investigate group differences in acquiring an indirect style of supervisory conference behavior, 18 elementary school inservice teachers were randomly assigned to a video-modeling, written-modeling and performance-feedback treatment or non-treatment. Criterion performances were the frequency…

This paper presents a training model, Skill Development in Teaching (SKIT), designed for use in improvement programs for inservice teachers and in teacher education programs for preservice trainees. An introductory section notes the early use of Flanders' interaction analysis as a feedback tool for teachers, outlines a 1962 model in which it was…

Reveals that (1) it is possible to develop a low per-student-cost computerized verbal category system, (2) teacher behavior was modified and student participation increased, and (3) curriculum investigations suggest that improvement is possible with more experienced coders. (Author)

Purpose of the study was to determine whether teacher-student interaction and the effectiveness of using certain teaching strategies were functions of selected personality characteristics of the laboratory teachers. (Author)

The Social Science Observation Record (SSOR) is an interaction analysis-systematic observation scheme enabling users to engage in interaction analysis as a descriptive record. Pilot studies suggest that the knowledge of the system enables pre-service social studies teachers (using microteaching simulation) to modify their own behavior in…

This study found no significant difference in student achievement as a result of change in identified teacher behaviors in an American History course. The behaviors were those identified in the Stanford Teacher Competence Appraisal Guide. Behavior change was effected through the use of a microteaching teach-reteach cycle with feedback from…

THE IMPLICATIONS FOR TRAINING READING TEACHERS OF CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS IN TEACHER EDUCATION RELEVANT TO READING INSTRUCTION, THE CURRENT STATE OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE TEACHING-LEARNING PROCESS, AND EVOLVING IDEAS ABOUT READING INSTRUCTION ARE EXAMINED. BRIEFLY DESCRIBED ARE MICRO TEACHING, VIDEO-TAPING, TIME-LAPSE PHOTOGRAPHY, CLINICAL TEACHING…

This paper is concerned with the research and development work that is being undertaken in applying interaction analysis to the training of university lectures. Interaction analysis or the systematic observation of lecturing is a technique that has been used in conjunction with microteaching to facilitate the trainer's job in shaping the teaching…

Describes a successful summer institute utilizing videotaped microteaching and Flanders Interaction Analysis to help 14 community college professors improve their methods of interacting with students. (DC)

A Minicourse on Flanders' Interaction Analysis was adapted and re-developed for use in West German teacher training institutions, and evaluated in several studies with pre- and inservice teachers. The Minicourse incorporates the microteaching components of discrimination training, laboratory teaching experience, and feedback. The results of four…
