Abstract

        This survey research aimed to study the perceptions of teacher professional competencies of 4-year preservice teachers in an internship. The participants comprised 168 preservice teachers in a teacher education institute, 112 school advisors, and 46 university advisors. Data were collected using a survey of preservice teachers’ professional competencies perception and a teacher professional competency for school and university advisors. The data were collected after the end of the internship. Semi-structured interviews and preservice teachers’ portfolios were also collected.
        The results showed a consensus that preservice teachers had competency in ethics toward themselves, their professions, service recipients and society at the highest level. Most preservice teachers indicated problems in classroom management, teaching in specific subject areas, and relationships with parents and communities. Some comments and suggestions showed about the period internship and the coordination and planning between teacher education institutions and schools.
