Makale Özeti:
|
The academic performance of the learners is of great concern in every format
of education. The promotion of the academic achievement is an integral part
of goals to be achieved in higher education. The present investigation has been
undertaken to locate the background and personal variables which may best
predict the academic performance of secondary teacher trainees in distance
education.
The findings of the study showed that 72.1% of the variance towards the
criterion variable of performance in theory papers was explained by fourteen
independent variables (one background variable and thirteen measures of
personal characteristics), 63.5% variance in performance in skills in teaching
of the trainees was explained by eleven independent variables which
included ten variables of personal characteristics and one background
variable, and a total variance of 62.8% in their overall academic
performance was explained by their nine variables (one background and
eight variables of personal characteristics).
These findings may be used to improve the services provided to the distance
teacher trainees. As guidelines for in-service education planners and
educators, the findings of the study can help in redefining goals, needs and
approaches to teach, for this group of ―double-role‖ in-service teacher
trainees.
