Performance-based Teacher Education
註釋This document clarifies the concepts of Performance Based Teacher Education, examines their potential, and identifies problems and questions. Five essential elements are identified: 1) teaching competencies to be demonstrated are role-derived, specified in behavioral terms, and made public; 2) assessment criteria are competency-based, specify mastery levels, and are made public; 3) assessment requires performance as prime evidence and takes student knowledge into account; 4) the student's rate of progress depends on demonstrated competency; and 5) the instructional program facilitates development and evaluation of specific competencies. Characteristics include program individualization and modularization; emphasis on exit rather than entrance requirements; the systemic, open approach, with feedback loops and program alternatives; and student and program accountability. The advantages of PBTE are identified and include the attention to individual abilities and needs, the focus on objectives, the emphasis on the sharing process by which these objectives are formulated and used as the basis of evaluation, and efficiency.
