Abstract | Universities and colleges accredited by the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education are facing the prospects of measuring dispositions related to teaching. Dispositions selected for teacher candidates at the University of West Alabama are characteristics desirable in N-12 candidates. This pilot study was designed to assess attitudes toward these dispositions. The sample consisted of preservice teachers, inservice teachers, administrators, and college/university professors. These participants completed the Survey of Dispositions of Inservice and Preservice Teachers (SDIPT). The SDIPT is a 5-point Likert-type scale with 40 items anchored by strongly agree and disagree. Demographic information obtained from participants included age ranges, groups, years of experience, and work assignment. Responses to the item were compared across groups, across age ranges, and by years of experience. Results indicated that attitudes toward dispositions did not vary as a function of the demographic characteristics. Recommendations for future practice are outlined and implications for further research are provided. (Contains 17 references.) (Author/SM) |
