INTRODUCTION
Preface
This report describes a two-year investigation of the in-
fluence on student teachers of a training program for coopera-
ting teachers. Certain characteristics of both student teachers
and cooperating teachers were studied 1,o assess relationships
between and among such characteristics and the major variables&
training, and the classroom instructional behaviors of student
teachers.
Two discrete but related projects provide the data for
this report. The first, A Pilot Study (Preparing beginning teach-
ers for working with the educationally disadvantaged s A pilot
study of the influence on student teachers of a training progral,
for cooperating teachers in inner-city schools) covered a contract
period of July 1, 1967 through June 30, 1968.
The second project, A Continuing Study (see full title on
Title Page of report) covers a contract period from July 1, 1968
through July 31, 1969.
The description and findings of both studies are presented
here as an integrated report. It follows the format suggested
by the Division of Research, but is intended as a final report
to the Bureau of Inservice Education, the Syracuse City School
District and the Division of Research.
Since thesearch design,will be on the
projects involve both a training design and a re-
both will be detailed, but the greater emphasisresearch phase and its findings.
Statement of the problem
The problem was initially stated in the proposal for sup-
port of the pilot studys
Student teaching has long been recognized asbeing one of the most critical components in progra"'s
for the preparation of teachers. Typically, the stu-
dent teaching experience is the ter"inal experience
in teacher training progralis. In the five year urban
teacher preparation progra t Syracuse Universitythis will not be the case.1)
TAIn this program, stu-
dent teaching is seen as one of several experienceswhich are designed to prepare the beginning urbanteachers for an intensive internship during their fifth

ence in the urban teacher preparation
Effective teaching and effective supervisionrequire different skills. Our experience suggeststhat supervising teachers, though successful andperhaps outstanding in the classroom, typically (a)lack skill in giving useful feedback to student teachersconcerning their instructional behavior, (b) lackthe kind of'conceptual understanding of the teaching-learning process necessary to help student teachersdevelop generalizations from exemplars of concepts,(c) tend to shape the student teachers' instructionalbehavior in their (the cooperating teachers') ownmold.
What is needed is a corps of cooperating teach-rs who can help student teachers develop effectiveteaching patterns that are congruent with their ownunique potentials as beginning teachers and theirperceptions of the role of the teacher that are con-sistent with the situation in which they teach.The feedback skills and conceptual models of theteaching-learning process necessary for effectivesupervision have not been readily available tocooperating teachers in the past. Recent innova-tions in training designs, instructional materialsand supervisory procedures have, along with recent
-2-
research findings, now uade it possible to imple-
ment a training prograu to develop an effective corpsof cooperating teachers. The project described inthis proposal will involve a workshop in which coop-erating teachers will be trained to use these newsupervisory tools. In addition, this project will
test the effectiveness of this workshop by measur-ing the extent to which student teachers workingwith the trained cooperating teachers are able to con-ceptualize and produce effective teaching behaviorsthat are consistent with their .unique potentialsand come to use these behaviors in their own teach-ing.
The research question of the Pilot Study wass Is there
any measurable difference in the behavior of student teachers(in classroom perfor"ance and in response to various instruments)
working with cooperating teachers having certain kinds of train-
ing, as compared to student teachers working with those who have
not had such training?
The same research question was asked in the ContinuingStudy, but the additbnal question wass Does the prescription
of specific differentiated supervisory activities demonstrate
further measurable distinctions among these variables?
Review of related literature
This section could become quite extended. The literature
concerning student teaching and its supervision is voluminous.
The past decade has produced research and opinion-type
literatures concerning student teaching and teacher education
which are related to, but beyond the scope of, this report. Other
sections cf the report "ake reference to this literature.

It was decided to restrict this review to a very brief sum-
ary of the literature concerning student teaching, rather than
to attempt a comprehensive survey.
Literature related to the instruments of this study are
summarized below in the section on instruHentation.
The dynamic changes taking place in American society have
been causing change and expansion in the field of education. A
significant portion of the task of coping with the educational
changes has fallen upon teacher educators. The most crucial com-
ponent of teacher-education programs is widely agreed to be that
of student teaching. During the years 1965 and 1966 alone, over
fifty articles and other publications exclusively devoted to as-
pects of student teaching were reported (Association for Student
Teaching, pp. 129-156s bibliography).
While most, if not all, teacher training programs containstudent-teaching as a component of their total programs, thereare wide differences as to the procedures they follow in adminis-tering their student-teaching experiences (Brinegar and Laymon).
It is no accident that student-teching should play so cen-tral a role in American teacher educdtion programs. For onepart of this question see Iannaccone and Button's fascinatingstudy of its relationship to attitude formation and initiation(1960. Corrigan and Garland (1966)" point to two basic reasonsfor the popularity of student-teaching as a training device.These sources are our democratic value system and instructionaltheory. In the first place, they claim (following Sharpe, 1956)that "odern democratic values prescribe that life preparationinvolve learning to deal with a changing world. "Education con-sists not so much in the mastery of specific techniques andskills as in an ever-increasing ability to solve probleus."(Corrigan and Garland, p. 11). Secondly, modern learning theory,oriented in large part to direct experience, dovetails nicelywith this prescrAption, and student teaching suits them boths
The science of learning provides the knowledgethat an individual learns best when actually involvedin achieving his purposes and solving his problems.Thus the modern concept of direct experience is thatit shall provide the learner with an opportunity to
solve his own problems. In student teaching experi-ences, positions are created in order to provide theguidance and opportunities for learning necessary toeet the objective of helping the student prepare,through the integration of theory and practice, toassume responsibility as a beginning teacher(Corrigan and Garland, pp 11f).
With the increasing importance of student teaching has comean expansion in the role of the public school in the preparationof teachers (Brinegar, p 1). Brinegar refers to Andrews' (1965,
p 35) suggestion that over 90% of student teaching is now prac-ticed in off-campus non-laboratory schools, primarily publicschools,and without college control.
The present study took place in an environuent and periodin which student-teaching was increasing in popularity andundergoing critical scrutiny allied at increasing its effective-ness. The cooperative relatiOnship between public schools andcolleges and universities was at a high point. This study isan attempt to isolate and describe some of the variables associ-ated with the supervision of student teachers.
Objectives and Hypotheses
In the following discussion, the term "Objectives" will re-fer to the expected outcomes of the training phase, the Work-shops. The term "Hypotheses" will refer to the research phaseof both projects.
In the words of the original proposal for a Pilot Study'
The primary objective of this workshop may bestated as follows* As a result, of this workshop,cooperating teachers should be able to help stu-dent teachers develop effective teaching behaviorsthat are congruent with their (the student teach-ers') unique potentials and teacher role perceptions,and are effective in guiding the learning of pupilsin inner-city elementary schools.
This primary objective remained essentially unchanged forboth Workshops.
Eight major\second level objectives were created to con-tribute to this primary one. These served as a framework forthe instructional process of the Workshops and in turn were the
basis for third level evidential performance objectives whichstructured the specific learning activities.
These second and third level objectives are included inAppendix A in the form in which they were used in the 1968 Work-shop. Also included in that Appendix are copies of instructionsand worksheets that further document the relationship of activi-ties to objectives.
No formal hypotheses were generated in the initial re-search designs.
Informally it was hypothesized that those student teachersworking with Workshop trained teachers would, on the average,produce better performance in the measures of the study than wouldthe comparison group. Specifically, it was predicted that theywould show greater congruence between their instructional inten-tions and observed classroom performande, more positive attitudestoward teaching, greater evidence of ability to conceptualizethe teaching function.
In the Pilot Study, minor hypotheses developed around thedimension of the assignment of student teachers to one situationfor the entire semester as compared to two different situationsduring the semester. It was generally hypothesized that thevarious measures might show a positive relationship with the fullsemester assignment.

ir cooperating teachers had been trained in both),m slightly less well; and finally, that those stu-
chers provided with unspecified supervisory techniquesbe at the lowest level in their performances.
The rationale for these hypotheses is clear, given the ra-tionale and objectives of the Workshops. Optimum feedback tech-
niques are considered the most useful form of supervision which
should result in improved performance. Those trained cooperat-ing teachers who are free to use all techniques at their dis-posal should help to produce the greatest improveuent. Next in
efficacy should\be those who have videotape recording available,
and who also have the conceptual framework of interaction analy-
sis but do not have access to the videotape tool which is per-ceived as having direct impact value. Finally, it is recognized
that many cooperating teachers have developed excellent tech-
niques of their own but that the cumulative effect of those tech-
niques will probably be less than the effect of such techniquescoupled with defined specific skills.
These objectives and hypotheses led to the specific educa-
tional and research treatments and activities detailed in the
next section.

PROCEDURES
Subjects involved in the investigation
There were two classes of subjects involved in the investi-gations Elementary Student teachers at Syracuse University andthe public school teachers in Syracuse Public Schools and threecontiguous districts who were their cooperating teachers.
In both studies there was some attrition from initial assign-ments as a student withdrew or became ill at a critical datagathering time. The following figures represent those studentsand teachers who comprised the final subjects of the studies,and who provided the data on which the 'findings were based.
In the Pilot Study, thirty-one teachers who had been parti-cipants in the 1967 Summer Workshop and twenty-four teacherswho had not been participants, all in the City School District,served as the cooperating teacher group in the Fall semester,1967.
Thirty -four, student teachers, senior undergraduates inElementary Education, were assigned to these cooperating teachersand became the student teacher group of the investigation.
These teachers and student teachers were identified asthirty-one teachers and eighteen student teachers in the "Work-shop group," and twenty-four teachers and sixteen student teach-ers in the "Comparison group."
The apparent disparity in the number of subjects is oc-casioned by the design to test the influence of full semesterplacement in one'situation as compared to changing situationseach quarter. The following table indicates the number of sub-jects in each cell.

The Continuing Study involved subjects in both semestersof the school year 1968-69. The cooperating teacher group wascomprised of thirty-five 1967 Workshop teachers, fourteen 1968Workshop teachers, and eighteen Non-Workshop trained teachers.since some teachers served both semesters, the totals here dif-fer from the table below. Five individuals in the Workshopwere fro', districts contiguous to the City, so that the totalW group includes six non-city placements and the total C groupincludes six non-city placements.
Since all placement of student teachers for the continuingstudy was initially for the full semester, it was intended thatthe number of student teachers and cooperating teachers wouldbe equal. However, it was agreed that circumstances would arisewhich would necessitate switching, and that that would be doneas long as the switch was within the same treatment sub-group.The following table indicates the final distribution of subjectsfor the continuing study.

The 1967 summer Workshop in the supervision of elementarystudent teachers was planned and conducted by Dr. John Hough andDr. Thomas Clayton, Associate Professors, School of Education,Syracuse University. It was an intensive four-week program withsufficient instructional time to grant six semester hour credits.Tuition and travel allowance to the thirty-three participantswere paid by the New York State Education Department. An addition-al stipend to participants was paid fron the funds of the UrbanTeacher Preparation Program at Syracuse University. The instruc-tional program was generated "by instructional objectivesdescribed above and displayed in Appendix'A.
Since the instructional activities of the 1967 Workshophave been described in some detail in previous reports (Clayton1967, 1968a), it is appropriate in this report to concentrateon the activities of the 1968 Workshop for the Continuing Study,indicating major changes that were made based on the experienceof the Pilot Study.
The 1968 Summer Workshop for the Continuing Study was con-ducted by Dr. Clayton and Dr. Wilford Weber, Assistant Professor,School of Education, Syracuse University. The program was ex-tended to five weeks on a schedule that permitted six-semesterhours of credit. Tuition, travel allowance and stipends werepaid to the thirty-five participants by the State Education De-partment.
Where the 1967 program was restricted to Syracuse Cityteachers, the 1968 program enrolled five teachers fro ,' con-tiguous districts and included two kindergarten teachers.
. The format and instructional program for 1968 followed thepattern established in the Pilot Study. Changes included:
--Increased time and attention devoted to the viewing andanalysis of the videotapes of participants teaching intheir regular classrooms.--A slight reduction in the emphasis on theoretical models,especially those having to do with learning theory.--Modification of the micro-teaching activities to elimi-nate the immediate re-teach cycle, viewing the second micro-teaching session as the re-teach episode, and emphasizingmore strongly the supervisory engagement in the micro-teaching.--Generally greater attention to skill development insupervisory behavior.
The Workshop Activities were summarized in a Progress Re-port (Clayton, 1968b):

of the July 4 calendar, the group met ays the first week, three days the secondur, days in each of the following threeWorkshop was scheduled from 8:30 to 3:00.
matter of convenience, daily secretaries wereto keep minutes of the meetings for distri-
o the group.
rat week activities:
The first week was devoted to developing under-ing and skill in the basic intellectual and tech-1 skills to be used in the Workshop and supervision.
entation, operation of videotape equipment, concept-izations of "teaching" and "supervislon", the be-
nnings of analysis of supervisory skills, trainingn Flanders interaction analysis, and the administra-ion of the initial instruments of the research study
were all packed into the first week.
Second week activities:
In the second week, heavy emphasis was placedon viewing the tapes which had been made in eachparticipant's classroom, using a triadic pattern ofteacher role, supervisor role and observer role.Thus the tapes were used as a basis for initialexperience in supervising, usinginteractionanalysis --
and other teOniques developed in the first week.

Because of space and equipment, while one halfof the group engaged in the behavior described above,the other half considered ways to conceptualizeteaching, using such various models as Flanders'social-emotional climate, Gallagher and Asehner'sCognitive levels, Hughes' public and private cri-teria, Bellack's analysis of verbal behavior, Clay-ton's notions of teacher influenef, and the instruc-tional process. This was applied to the basic'assumptions of the objective 'eedback, approach tosupervision.
The behavioral objectives dealing with video-taping and interaction analysis were completed formost of the participants during the second week.
Third week activities:
The major activity of the third week was theplanning for and carrying out of the first micro-teaching session.
Instead of bringing children in for micro-teaching as in the previous year, the Workshopparticipants arranged to visit a summer schoolprogram in North Syracuse where groups ofchildren were made available for the micro-teaching expetience.
One half of the group engaged in micro-teach-ing on Tuesday, the other half on Wednesday. Mon-day was largely spent on planning for the micro-teaching since the plan called for a "supervisor"and "teacher" to work together in planning the ten-minute lesson. Included in the planning was a pre"sentation on the Bloom and Krathwohl Taxononies ofEducational Objectives in the Cognitive and Affeel.tive Domains.
The group on campus discussed theories oflearning and motivation. The group in the fieldcarried out the 111cm-teaching task, videotaping theepisode and carrying out a follow-up supervisoryconference using interaction analysis and videotape.
On Thursday, the micro-teaching was critiquedand the group attended a summer session CurriculumConference on campus.
Fourth week activities:
The fourth week included presentation and die-
cussionlby two guest speakers: 'Hough dealing withinstructional strategies and Dr. Lohman dealing withareas of concern in student teaching.
Learning theory and perception were the main sub-stantive areas, and considerable time was spent analyz-ing the micro - teaching videotapes, role-playing a varietyof supervisory conferences, and planning for the secondmicro-teaching episodes.
Fifth week activities:
The fifth week was devoted to planning for, carry-ing out and analyzing the second micro-teaching sessionsand their supervisory follow-ups. When not engaged inthese activities, participants worked individually onoompleting objectives,work sheets and satisfying anyobjectives not yet met.
Various instruments required for the researchactivities were filled out.
Subjective Assessment
Participants' response to the Workshop appeared tobe very positive, and the instructors felt that theprogram had worked very well. There was considerableevidence that most participants had changed their per-ception of appropriate supervisory behavior and thatmany had developed considerable skill in applying newtechniques.
The Research phase
The research phase of the two studies has been complex andevolutionary. The original conception was a relatively simpleattempt to assess the probable influence of the Workshop train-ing on the performance of student teachers. As the Pilot studyprogressed, our perception of the variables multiplied. Datahave been gathered that will be reported in this study andstored at the University, but that cannot be analyzed within thescope of this report. There appear to be many interrelation-ships that could be fruitfully examined.
For both the Pilot Study and the Continuing Study, researchwas designed to assess the impact, if any, of Workshop trainingupon the classroom instructional behavior of student teachersand other variables related to teaching.
In the Workshops, selected paper and pencil instrumentswere administered to participants in the first days and last
-12-
day of each Workshop. The pre and post administrations includedthe Teaching Situation Reaction Test and a form of Semantic Dif-ferential. The Workshop Activities Assessment Index was completedat the end of each Workshop.
These instruments are described in the next section, andcopies are included in Appendix B.
For the school year following eaeh Workshop, student teach-ers were assigned to cooperating teachers who had been Workshopparticipants and to an otherwise equivalent group who had notparticipated in such training. The large majority of regularlyenrolled undergraduate students registered for student teachingin the semesters under study participated in the program. Thoserequiring special placements, those required to fill placementcoHnitments in suburban schools and graduate student teacherswere not included.
In the Pilot Study, active research procedures took placeonly in the Fall Semester. In the Continuing study, placementsduring both semesters were used.
In the Pilot Study, the Workshop group and the Comparisongroup were equivalent in number (see analysis of subjects above).Approximately half of each group was assigned to a full semesterwith the same cooperating teacher. The other half followed, themore conventional pattern (for Syracuse University) of havingtwo assignments, at different grade levels, during the semester.
In the Continuing Study, a more complex design was project-ed. Four treatment groups were formed, equivalent in nu fiber,three involving Workshop trained teachers and one involving non-participants in the Workshops.
Group A was asked to use both Interaction Analysis and video-tape recording procedures in their supervision. Group B wasasked to use videotape recording, but not Interaction Analysis,and Group C was asked to use Interaction Analysis but not video-tape recording. Group D, not trained in the Workshops, usedunspecified techniques that they had developed through theirown experience (see memoranda in Appendix D).
During the 1968 Workshop, participants indicated theirpreference for inclusion in Groups A, B or C. These preferenceswere followed where possible in the assignment to treatmentgroups. In soiie cases, second order preference was necessarybecause of the logistics of delivery of videotape equipment,of similar treatment within the same school or because of theneed for equivalent size groups. 1967 participants were assignedto treatment groups without consultation.
1
In both the Pilot Study and the Continuing Study, arrange-ments were made to provide the support of videotape equipmentto those designated to use its in the Pilot Study, all thosein the Workshop trained group; in the Continuing Study, thosein Groups A and B.
Three sets of General Electric Tri-Pac videotape equip-ment (i inch tape) were provided by tlic Audio-Visual Service ofthe Center for Instructional Communication at the University.These sets were rotated almong those schools designated to usevideotape in the supervision of student teachers. Schedulesfor such rotation are included in Appendix D among the samplememoranda.
No atte4ipt was made to prescribe the specific use of video-tape equipnent. Within each school, the teachers were responsi-ble for scheduling their own use of the equipnent while it wasthere. There is evidence that there were tremendous variationsin the frequency and quality of utilization from teacher toteacher and from school to school.
In the Pilot Study, the equipment was rotated so that itreached each teacher- student teacher pair six times during thesemester. Reactions to this scheduling caused a revision forthe Continuing Study so that each pair received the equipmentthree tines during the semester, thus having a longer continu-ous period of time to develop its use.
With the exceptions of a few sanples retained, tapes wererecorded, viewed and re-used. Many participants recommendedretaining the recorded tapes in order to coupare early and laterperformances. This would probably have been a valuable super-visory technique, but it was decided that the cost would beprohibitive in this study.
One of the broader objectives of these studies was an at-tempt to redefine the roles and responsibilities of the collegesupervisor and the cooperating teacher.
It was felt that the studies provided an opportunity toassign greater responsibility for supervision to the cooperat-ing teacher and to shift the college supervisor's role towardthat of a liaison between the University and the public school,a trouble shooter when probleus occurred, and a conductor ofweekly seninars. Thus, the college supervisors working With theexperimental groups were asked to observe student teachers pri-marily to obtain data for use in seminars and to move away fromthe more conventional supervisory-evaluative use of observa-tions unless asked by cooperating teachers. There is sonequestion whether, in actuality, this role shift occurred.
In order to make this shift more probable, graduate stu-dents in Elementary Education to be employed as college super-visors participated in the Workshops and were assigned to thesupervision of specified student teacher groups in the studies.
In the Pilot Study, Mr. Walter Koukal participated in theWorkshop and became the supervisor for all of the Workshopgroup student teachers in the Fall of Y967. Three other Grad-uate Assistants and Lecturers, non-participants in the Work-shop, worked with students in the comparison group.
In the Continuing Study, Mrs. Florence Gray and Mr. DeVilloSloan were participants in the 1968 Workshop and became super-visors of Workshop-related student teachers in the Fall andSpring se it, esters of 1968-69.
Mrs. Gray was assigned to Group A which was designated touse both Interaction Analysis and videotape recording in theirsupervisory actiqtrities. Mr. Sloan worked with Group B, to useInteraction Analysis but not videotape recording.
Group C, using videotape recording, but not InteractionAnalysis, was supervised by Mrs. Joan Landers in the Fallsemester and by Mr. Joseph Rousseau in the Spring semester.Neither of these individuals had been participants in the Work-shop, but both received individual instruction and obtainedpractice experience in the use of videotape recording.
In the Continuing Study, embers of Group D, the compari-son group, were distributed among three superVisors in the Fallsemester and were assigned to Mr. Wayne Dickinson in the Springsemester. No special instructions were given to the comparisongroup supervisors, and it was assumed that they defined theirroles in unspecified conventional ways.
II
Throughout the year of the Continuing Study, all CollegeSupervisors met regularly (approximately once a month) withDr. Ernest Lohman, coordinator of student teaching, to developsome commonality of procedures in their work.
In both studies, the principal investigator met with thoseseminar groups scheduled to use Interaction Analysis during thefirst two seminar meetings in order to provide sufficienttraining in Interaction Analysis for them to respond to the feed-back process. No attempt was made to have the student teachersachieve competence in the application of the technique, exceptthat practice materials were made available on an individualbasis for those who wished to gain additional competence.
For those groups using videotape, a technically trainedGraduate Assistant in the Division of Teacher Preparation was
-15-
available for for training and assistance during the seminars.
The major data gathering device of both studies was aseries of scheduled observations of student teachers by trainedobservers who recorded both an interview and a classroom ob-servation six times during each semester.
Schedules for each series were prepared and communicatedto student teachers and cooperating Leachers. The training ofobservers, their reliability, and the procedures of observa-tion are detailed below in the section on Instruments of theStudy.
In the Pilot Study, seven observations were made, withthe first one considered as part of the training process, ra-ther than as part of data gathering.
In the Pilot Study, a very careful rotation schedule wasused so that each observer saw every student teacher at leastonce and no pattern of observer-teacher familiarity wasformed. Subjective analysis of observer reliability for the
Continuing Study\ decided that this degree of rigor was unneces-sary, and observer assignments were made on pralquatic bases of
availability and convenience, although each student teacher wasobserved by at least three different observers.
Other than planned observation, data were gathered fromthe instruments of the studies according to the followingschedule.
As indicated above, during the Workshops, participantscompleted pre and post forms of the TSRT and Semantic Differ-ential, and filled out a Workshop Activities Assessiiient Index.
In both studies, student teachers filled out .TSRT andSemantic Differentials during the first two weekly seminarmeetings. On the last day of their student teaching assign-ment they returned to the University, meeting as a group at1 P.M., and filled out the post form of these instruments.In addition, at that final session, they coupleted a state-ment of their perception of the supervisory behaviors usedby their cooperating teachers (Workshop Activities AssessmentIndex for Pilot Study and Supervisory Activities Checklistfor Continuing Study, see description below). They also re-acted to two versions of the Minnesota Student Attitude In-ventory, one as they would like their students to respond tothe (Ideal), and one as they thought their students wouldactually respond to them (Real).
In a few cases each semester, a few students unable toattend the meeting scheduled themselves for the next week or
-16-
received and returned the instruments; by mail.
Additional data were received from the cooperating teach-ers within two weeks after the completion of the studentteaching. In the Pilot Study, Workshop trained teachers com-pleted the statement of frequency and value of supervisoryactivities actually used by reacting to the Workshop ActivitiesAssessment Index. In the Continuing Stlly, all teachers, Work-shop and Comparison, provided similar data using the Super-visory Activities Checklist.
It was intended to gather data on all student teachersby having their classes fill out the Minnesota Student Atti-tude Inventory. However, itAwas found that there were a num-ber of teachers and schools that had serious reservations abouta number of items in that instrument, and there was consider-able question about the instrument's viability for prinarygrades. Consequently, its administration was made optional andits results are reported as a biased sample for whatever valuethey may have.
Detailed information on these instruments is provided inthe next section.
Instruments of the Study
The basic selection of the data gathering instruments ofthe studies was made prior to the submission of proposals forsupport of the research activity. Some changes occurred as aresult of the continuing evaluation of those instruments andthe assessment of continued research experience.
Some background from the literature, description of theinstruments, and analysis of their utilization follows. Theinstruments themselves are included in Appendix B.
1. The Teaching Situation Reaction Test (TSRT).
The T3RT has gone through a series of revisions since itwas developed by Janes K. Duncan and Jack Frymier (see Houghand Amidon, 1963),for use in a non-educational setting. It hasbeen used in many research studies (many of which are describedin Hough and Duncan, 1965, Duncan, Hough and Thompson, Feb.,1966, and Duncan and Hough, Sept., 1966),
In its present form (1966 revision) it is designed to mea-sure a person's reaction to teaching situations he is asked toimagine. It has been refined so that it may measure specificnon-subject-related aspects of a teacher's perception of hisrole. Specifically, an item- analysis of the data it produces
-17-
will reveal four dimensions of this perception:
1) The ,dogmatism factor (Rokeach, 1960)
2) The!human relations factor, using the G.T. Barrett-Lennard (1962) Relationship.Inventory, designed tomeasure positive regard, empathy, congruence, un-con itionality, and willingess to be known.
3) The structure factor (Duncan !.1.nd Hough, Sept.,1966).
4) The objectivity-subjectivity factor, as relatedto a teacher's use of data about students (Houghand Amidon, 1963).
There are forty-eight iteus in the test, relating to every-day aspects of teaching, such as planning, classroou management,and teacher-pupil relationships. Subjects are asked to rank-order their choices of four possible behavioral reactions tohypothetical classroou problem situations. They place theseassigned ranks on an answer sheet which is scored by means ofa master key (see Appendix B for the test and answer sheet).The key and directions for using the key are included in Fig-ure 1 and the text below.
Duncan and Hough report in their "Technical Review of theTeaching Situation Reaction Test" upon several administrationsof the TSRT in conjunction with other scales such as the Cali-fornia Test of'Mental Maturity (Short Form) and the MinnesotaTeacher Attitude Inventory. These studies, they report, havehelped clarify the TSRT's dimensions and its underlying theory(p. 5). After reviewing a variety of studies, they concludethat the TSRT seems to be both fairly reliable and fake-re-sistant. It has demonstrated predictive validity, and has"...related to or confirmed findings in the studies of FlandersInteraction Analysis As it stands the test has merit" (p.31).
The spaces beneath each set of four numbers are cut outas "windows" which are placed over the subject's responses.Then for each question, the following procedure is used forscoring:
1) Start with #3.2) Determine the number of other responses greater than
the responses under #3.3) Record that number and cross out the response under
#3.4) Repeat the same procedure for #2 and #1.5) Sum the recorded numbers.6) Sum, the 48 totals calculated during Step 5. This
grand total is the subject's score on the TSRT.

In attenpting to get at attitudes toward specific as-pects of teaching and instructional behavior, it was proposedto use some form of a Semantic Differential Instrument.
The originator of the Semantic Differential Instrument isCharles E. Osgood. Its description, theoretical rationale anda review of its applications are reported in Osgood, Succi andTannenbaum (1957). A brief description and review appears inRemmers (Gage, Editor, 1963).

After the original Semantic Differential Instrument wasadministered to the Workshop teachers and the student teachersin the Pilot Study, the instrument was revised to include onlythose stens which elicited a significant shift in response.The number of scales on each factor was increased in accord-ance with the general reconnendations of Osgood, Sucei andTannenbaum (1957). Each stem was placed on a separate pageso that responses would be as independent as possible betweenitems. This instrument is presented in Appendix B.

Minnesota Student Attitude Inventory
Minnesota Student Attitude Inventory was previouslyFlanders (1965, passim). In this monograph he discusses
e of and adaptations with the MSAI, together with someeration of its reliability for measuring student atti-towards teachers. His own use of it was in conjunctionInteraction Analysis data in his study of direct and in-
ect influence.
See also, J.P. Anderson's Student Perceptions of TeacherInfluence (1959)
In the present studies, further adaptations were made tosimplify the ;responses of students and the analysis of thoseresponses. A set of directions and answer sheet were developedwhich called for students to agree (A) or disagree (D) with
-20-
the statements about the student' teacher who had been work-ing with them.
As indicated in the section on research activities above,the use of this instrument became quite suspect with teachersand schools that were concerned with possible negative reac-tions toward instruction and instructional personnel.. Hence,its use with children in these studier vas not taken veryseriously, and data were used with recognition of the samplebias.
The more important use of this instrument was in the mea-sure of contrast or congruence of the "ideal" and "real" per-ceptions of the student teachers as they assessed how theywanted and believed that students would assess them.
4. The Workshop Assessi'ent Index and the SupervisoryActivities Checklist.
For the 1967 Sum er Workshop phase of the Pilot Studythe instructors created an assessment index for the workshopcooperating teachers to fill out, in order to collect informa-tion about their perceptions of the workshop activities (seeAppendix B) . The teachers were to respond along two dinen-sions (predicted usefulness and predicted frequency of use)
to twelve items, each of which had been a component of theWorkshop. These teachers were to take these again (now actu-al instead of predicted usefulness and frequency) at the con-clusion of their cooperating-teacher assignments, for pur-poses of comparison.
During the semester the idea developed that it might beuseful to administer it to the student-teachers in the Work-shop group as well. Therefore, special directions were cre-ated (see Appendix) and these people also filled out the in-dex at the end of their student-teaching experiences.
The Workshop Assessment Index was also administered tothe workshop cooperating teachers at the conclusion of the 19-68 Summer Workshop. Soon afterward, however, the investiga-tors conceived of the idea of constructing a measuring de-vice that all the participants in the study could take atthe end of their student-teaching or cooperating-teachingperiods. With such an instrument it would be possible togain information about just how different the treatmentgroups really were, in addition to learning about the ef-
fects of the workshop upon cooperating and student-teachersin the workshop group (as the Workshop Assessment Index hadbeen designed,to reveal). Hence the creation of the Super-visory Activities Checklist, a longer index in terms, of the
number of items, but a simpler test which could be filled out
by members of all the treatment groups involved (see Appendix B).
5. The Observation System for Instructional Analysis
(OSIA).
The major research technique oft-the studies was observa-
tion of student teachers by trained Qbservers. In a very
real sense, the "instrument" includes both the observation
system and the observers themselves. The techniques, relia-
bilities and qualifications of observers are essentially a
part of the instrumentation.
The discussion below includes data about the background
and development of the system, its description, the training
and reliability of observers, and procedures used in apply-
ing the "instrument."
A description of some of the early attempts at systematic
classroom observation and analysis,-together with a dis-
cussion of the basic requirements for sound research with
such instruments is provided by Donald M. Medley and Harold
Et Mitzel (Gage; pp. 247-328). Edmund J. Amidon and John
B. Hough cover some of this territory and also report on
some more current research findings and applications.
A number of researchers have been concerned with the
question of observing and understanding the kinds of inter-k
action that take place in classrooms. One of the earliest
was H.H. Anderson (Amidon and Hough, pp. 4-23), who in 1939
studied the integrative and douinative behavior of teachers
in the classroom. Anderson set up categories for behavior
seen .as 'integrative and those for dominative ones, and has
his observers keep a tally of the kinds of interaction that
took place between teacher and students. At the end of the
observation period the data were processed and analyzed.
Fro n these beginnings, we have, particularly in recent
years, seen the emergence of a great many systems of class-
room observation designed to measure the quantity and quali-
ty of interaction (see Simon and Boyer for a conprehensive
and descriptive catalogue of these).
Most of the researchers since Anderson have adhered di-
rectly or indirectly to the dichotomy he drew between dom-
inative and integrative styles of teaching. Other names
have been given for modes but there is a arked sinilarity
between Anderson's "dominative-integrative," Lewin, Lippett
and WhitOs "autocratic-democratic" I(Amidon and Hough, pp.
24-46), Withall's "teacher centered-student centered"
(ibid, pp. 47-64); Cogan's "preclusive-inclusive" libido
-22-
1111
pp. 65-88) and Flanders' "direct-in4irect" (ibid, pp. 103-116, Flanders, 1965, Amidon and Flanders, 1967).
Flanders is the researcher who developed the now widelyused ten-category system, which has been the catalyst forso many of the current systems of observation that are understudy. He used the results of the above researchers as a"theoretical basis for conceptualiziLs the relationship be-tween teacher influence and the behavior and attitudes ofpupils." (Amidon and Hough, p.3), and his category systemhas been the basic tool of educators for assessing the so-cial-emotional climate of classrooms. For evidence in sup-port of the assertion that this climate can objectively andreliably be measured (and that it is related to teachingeffectiveness), see Amidon and Hough's second chapter.
The systems of observation used in our Pilot and Con-tinuing studies are examples of the suggestiveness of theFlanders system for expansion and modification toward theaccommodation of different goals and uses. Hough has pre-served its usefulness in measuring social-emotional climate,while augmenting it so that it may do even more than that.The variations culminating in his thirty-two (or more) cate-gory system each possess specific categories so organizedthat it becomes possible to examine observed instructionalbehavior in the light of learning theory (see Amidon andHough, pp. 150-157 and Hough and Duncan, In Press).
Hough's Observation System for Instructional Analysisprovides a sophisticated measuring device for the sorts ofinteraction that takes place incclassrooms. Although ouruse of it capitalizes upon its virtues vis a vis quantita-tive measurements, our data and new data collected with itflight well be utilized for a wide range of purposes.
During the two years of the study, the ObservationSystem for Instructional Analysis (OSIA, Hough and Duncan,1969) was going through an evolutionary process.
The original decision to use the developingtistrumentwas made in the summer of 1967 as Dr. Hough and Dr. Claytonconsidered the kind of data that would be helpful in re-cording the instructional behavior of student teachers.
Since Dr. Hough was available to participate in thetraining of observers, it was felt that the Pilot Studyshould use the newly developed tool and, at the same time,be useful in its analysis and development. Consequently,the September 1967 revision of the System was used in thePilot Study.
By the time of activation of the,i reeearch phase of the0.23-
Continuing Study (Fall 1968), the System had evolved into amore complex category system in which student behavior andteacher behavior were in parallel categories.
The relative benefits of using the same system in thetwo studies, or of using rather different versions or thesystem were' considered. If the same system were use.A., com-parisons between the two studies would be facilitated. On
the other hand, in terms of instrument development, theuse of the September 1967 form'in the Continuing Study wouldindicate failure to utilize continuing development, requiredependence on an unpublished instrument that would probablynot generate further research, and would miss some :,6f the
data available with the new version.
Since, again, Dr. Hough was available to participate inthe training of observers, it was decided that the currentversion of the Observation System should be used in theContinuing Study.
A brief description of the 23 category system used inthe Pilot Study, is included below, followed by a more ex-tended description of the procedured used in the ContinuingStudy.

The form of the Observational System used in the Continu-ing Study is more difficult to describe. It classifies class-
room behavior into fifteen specific categories which can beengaged in by both students and teacher (15T and 15S parallel
categories). Two additional classes of behavior are definedirrespective of the specific T=S identification. Thus it is
frequently referred to as a 32-category system. However, six-
teen categories (8T and 88) can be further classified in two
ways (open and closed) giving a potential of 48 categories or
sub-categories.
In the Continuing Study, the shorter form (32 categories)
was used since the greater refinement of the extended version
did not appear to be relevant to the required data.
The first twenty-six categories of the syste" are divided
into three major sections (Figure 3). These are the substan-tive, appraisal and the managerial. Substantive behaviors deal
with content. This relates to the knowledge or skills that
are displayed in the classroom with regard to the subject mat-
ter that the teacher considers as part of his objectives.
Managerial behaviors relate to procedures of running the
classroolp that are not directly related to content. For in-
stance, if the teacher requests thatithe students take out
their math books this is clearly a substantive behavior be-
cause she planned to use the text in ;the lesson. If a student
requests permission to get a drink of water, and this is not
part of the lesson, this behavior is managerial.
The appraisal behaviors relate to the feedback exhibitedwithin the classrool. These appraisal behaviors inform the
individual or group as to the "rightness or wrongness" of pre-
vious behavior. They are not to be used to identify good andbad students or teachers. These three "ajor categories arebroken down into 'fore specific teacher-student behaviors.
Figure 3 indicates the two headings, teacher behaviors
and student behaviors. Under each heading and Ti, T2,T3
etc., and Si, 82, S3 etc. the T refers to teacher and the S
refers to student behavior. The numbers refer to the type of
behavior, the capital letter refers to who is exhibiting thatbehavior. Both teacher and student 'an exhibit the same typeof behavior. There are fifteen.behaviors that both teacherand student can display in this system. The last two behav-iors, X 16 and Y 17, are of a different nature. X 16 refersto confusion, and Y 17 is used to designate that a studenthas spoken but is followed by another student speaking. Inbetween the two S recordings on the tally sheet the observerwould place Y 1 ?.
The category of substantive clarification refers to state-ments that clarify preceding comment. A student or teachermay ask for clarification of content. In recording observa-tions, this behavior takes precedence over other behaviors.Responding to substantive solicitation is answering a ques-tion that refers to the content under discussion. Initiatingsubstantive information can be either lecturing or a declara-tive statement on content. Soliciting substantive responsesrefers to asking a question about the content under discussion.These categories are the substantive 'categories.
The appraisal behaviors are divided into five categories.Corrective feedback is exhibited when the teacher or anotherstudent corrects misinformation with,!the correct information.Confirmation is exhibited when one is told that the informa-tion is correct. Acceptance occurs when an opinion is accept=ed as stated, not in the sense that it is correct but rather
the sense that there is not one correct answer or that theresponse is usable without requiring-value judgment. Positivepersonal judgment occurs when a correct answer is given butsomeone, either teacher or student, praises the answer; nega-tive personal judgment is just the opposite. A wrong answeris given and the person is told so in a personal way.
Managerial behaviors are very similar to substantive be-haviors. The major difference is that they refer to class-room management irrespective of specific content. A manageri-al clarification refers to clarifying a question or state-ment concerned with classroom procedures. Responding to amanagerial solicitation refers to answering a managerial ques-tion. Initiating managerial information is a managerialstatement or lecture. Soliciting a managerial response isasking a question concerned with procedure or routine.
The last behaviors to be discussed are the silence be-haviors. Silent covert behaviors occur when it is clearly ex-pected that someone is thinking, perhaps preparing to respondto a question. Silent overt behavior is planned silence dur-ing which time the students are working on content connectedwith the lesson. This can be recorded when the teacher iswriting on the board.

The thirteen basic categories, plus the silence categoryas described above are the basic behaviors contained in TheObservational System for Instructional Analysis.
This system allows for recording sone aspects of non-verbal as well as verbal behavior. If the teacher gives a ,
student an instruction and the student responds, this is re-corded even though the stwitnt did not say a word.
The categories of the Observational System for Instruc-tional Analysis are recorded in five, second intervals. Tall-ies are recorded on the tally sheet (see Figure 4) at leastevery five seconds, or less if the behavior changes in lessthan five seconds. The tally sheet is made up of four majorcolumns as outlined by heavy black lines. Each column isagain divided into three sections or boxes. The research ob-server started each tally in the middle set of boxes of thefirst column with an X. For example,, when the teacher askeda short question, a T4 was recorded. This would be followedby a student response or S2. The teacher would say, "cor-rect," a T6, and then perhaps she would lecture, recorded asa T3. The lecture could take 30 seconds. Instead of record-ing a T3 every five seconds the otz:lerver places a slash markin the box next to T3 every five seconds. The sample tallysheet has five slashes next to the T3 recording. This indi-cates that the teacher spoke for a total of thirty seconds,five for the T3 recording and five for each slash. In thismanner the research observer recorded classroom interaction.
The Prediction Matrix
Each student teacher was interviewed' by the research ob-server before an observation. The purpose of this interviewwas to allow the research observer to predict what classroombehavior would be observed according to the information gath-ered from the student teacher. Several questions were askedin order to deterfline what behaviors the observer would re-cord. The questions were as follows:
1. What type of lesson am I about to observe?2. How do you plan to present the lesson?
Will this be new material or old?4. Will the students be doing any silent work?5. Do you anticipate any problems with the lesson, and,
if so, what kind?6. How do you handle student responses?
If the Student teacher was unable to answer the questionas stated then the observer would restate them. These re-sponses were then interpreted in terms of categories of TheObservational System.
-33-
The research observer would then record his predictionon a matrix (Figure 5). The matrix is divided into four mainsections. Each of these sections is outlined by heavy blacklines on the figure. Across the top and down the left sideof the matrix are the symbols that correspond to the symbolsused by the observer when using the analysis system. Withineach square are cells which were filled in to relate thetype of predicted behavior in accordance with the interview.The upper left hand square refers to teacher behavior only,the upper right hand square refers to teacher-student inter-action (student behavior following teacher behavior), thelower right hand square refers to student behavior only andthe lower left hand square refers to student-teacher interac-tion (teacher behavior following student behavior). In theappropriate cell within each square, the research observerwould record an H if the student teacher anticipated a highfrequency of that type of behavior in her lesson, an N if amedium frequency of that type of behavior and an L if lowerfrequency but some of that type of behavior. Nothing was' re-corded if the student teacher did not indicate that she wasexpecting a certain behavior. If, for instance, the studentteacher expected, to lecture for most of the class period,t4,741 within the teacher square and the T3, T3 cell the ob-:erver would place an H. However, if the student teacher ex-pected a lot of questions and answers during the class periodthen the researcher would place an H in the T4, S2 box. Like-wise if the teacher said that thNre would be sone questionsand answers but not exclusively, then an L or M might be re-corded. The, prediction matrix could then be coupared to theactual tally, of classroom performance.
5A. Observer Reliability
The four observers for the Pilot Study underwent a peri-od of training in the 23 category Observation System forInstructional Analysis. Their training was aimed at twobasic objectives. First, they needed to become familiar withthe system itself, enough so that they could ultimately re-cord classroom interaction with some proficiency at five-second intervals. This part of their training consisted ofpractice sessions using both audio and videotapes of class-room episodes, plus discussion of the subtleties of the systeand the development of ground rules for discrimination be-tween categories when ambiguities arise. The final phase ofthis part of the training was an actual two-week observationperiod in which all the student teachers in the Pilot Studywere observed on the job. Training fwas under the directionof Dr. Hough and Dr. Clayton.
The second objective of the training sessions was to

reach a point; where the observers were as similar as possiblewith respectHto the data they would collect were they all todo interaction analysis on the same teaching segment. The goalhere, in other words, was to make their observation techniquesas uniform as possible. If the data they were to collect wasto be assimilated, a high degree of consistency among thewas obviously necessary.
The only example available to the observers at that timewas Flanders' approach to this problem in his early studyinvolving his ten category syste (Flanders, 1965). Histechnique was to use the Scott Coefficient, and this proto-type was followed.
The four observers were brought together, at approximateintervals of two weeks, in order for them all to record dataon one teaching segment, usually on videotape. Their datawere analyzed, their Scott coefficients of reliability (withone-another),were computed. Since this was the first use ofthis category-system, no criterion coefficient was established.Observers simply had to proceed with and report the reliabili-ties achieved at\each session. While there can be no absolutestandards, one general guideline for evaluating these coef-ficients is Guilford's (1965, p. 145).

* Upon inspection it was realized that the low originalreliability was a direct result of difficulties among the ob-servers with respect to discrildnation between categories 14and 15 (see Appendix B or text above). A second computationof reliability was then made in which observer tallies in cate-gories 14 and 15 were considered as tallies in one instead oftwo different categories. The percentages in parentheses re-flect the results of this computation.

Using the 32 category system required constant monitoringof reliability in order to maintain performances in the .70 to.90 range. The observers showed a marked decrease in perform-ance when checked just after the semester vacation. Retrain-ing was necessary before the second semester observationscould be initiated.
Technical description of procedures used, for data analyses.
Instructional analysis data.
The data from the 23 category system for instructionalanalysis in the Pilot Study were initially compiled into 23x 23 matrices in which each cell contained the frequency ofeach diadic set of instructional behaviors. The row was de-termined by the first element of the diad and the column de-termined by the second. The pattern of prediction by thestudent teacher was then compared with the matrix and the .per-centage of cells predicted which were used was calculated.The percentage of tallies occuring in predicted cells .was al-so computed.
The data frou the 32 category system for instructionalanalysis in the Continuing Study were compiled into 32 x 32matrices as above.
Data analysis procedures.
Since the Teaching Situation Reaction Test (TSRT) and theMinnesota Student Attitude Inventory (MSAI) produce a singlenumerical score and since those scores were scaled in an in-terval manner and were distributed approximately normally,means and standard deviations were used to describe the data.In the exploratory phase of the study, paired t-tests wererun on the pre vs. post scores on the MT to test for sig-nificant gains. In order to co Tare the MSAI' "real" withthe MSAI "ideal", paired t-tests were also run. Data fromthe Semantic Differential instrument were arranged into fre-quency distributions and chi-square analysis was performedto test for differences between treatment groups. The Work-shop assessitent index data were arranged in frequency tablesalso but no inferential tests were performed on these data.
In order to test the hypotheses for the exploratory(Pilot Study) phase, two 4 x 2 x 6 analyses of variance wereperformed with repeated measures on the final factor. Fac-tor A was the four treatment conditions. Factor B was shifton the TSRT in the initial analysis. All those subjectswho showed a higher post TSRT score than they had on the pre-test were included in level one of Factor B. Those subjectswho had a posttest TSRT lower than the pretest TSRT were
-38-
placed in level two. When the analysis was run with the levelof MSAI as Factor B, all those student teachers above themedian on MSAI were placed in level one while those belowthe median were placed in level two. Factor C was the con-vergence of the prediction with the actual observed data (con-gruence of stated intent and observed classroom instructionalbehavior). The measure of this was the percentage of tal-lies in predicted cells.
In the Continuing Study, the model was the same exceptthat the four treatment conditions were defined as describedin the design section. Analyses were also run separatelyon those student teachers who were teaching in the fall sem-ester, 1968, and those who were teaching in the spring sellester 1969.
The analysis of variance nodel used was the least squaressolution for unequal cell sizes. It was discussed by Winer.(1962, pp. 319-330, 374-378). This became necessary when itwas found that restrictions on the assignment of studentteachers would make it impossible to design for equal cellsizes. The mode; is illustrated below where:
a is a treat i ent
b is the performance on TSRT or MSAIin two levels
is convergence of prediction withobserved performance

ANALYSIS OF THE DATA OF THE STUDY ANDRESULTS OF THE ANALYSES.
In this section the analysis of the data for the PilotStudy is presented first. Then the analysis of the data forthe Continuing Study is given. These analyses are presentedwith the analysis of variance. The descriptive statistics,further lower-level analyses of variance, and t tests were nec-essary to ascertain the nature of a particular contrast.
Pilot Study
Table 1 presents the analysis of variance for those sub-jects in the Pilot Study in all four treatment groups, thefirst of which was supervised by Workshop teachers for a fullsemester, the second of which was supervised by one Work-shop teacher for a half semester and then by another Work-shop teacher the second half semester. The third treatmentgroup was supervised for a full semester by a non-Workshopteacher. The fourth group was supervised by a non-Workshopteacher for the rirst half of the semester and another non-Workshop teacher for the second half of the semester.
TSRT
Factor B is a description of whether the student increasedhis score on the TSRT when pre and post tests were comparedor decreased in TSRT score under these conditions. Factor C
is the congruence of prediction with the actual observed data.This congruence was calculated as described in the precedingsection by the measure, percentage of tallies which occurredin cells predicted using the twenty-three category instruct-ional analysis matrix. The analysis of variance showed a sig-
nificant F for Factor B (p < .01) which indicated that subjectswho gained in TSRT score had different congruence of predic'tion with actual performance than those who scored lower onthe post TSRT. The interaction of treatment and TSRT was al-
so significant (p< .05). Factor C, the congruence was alsosignificant (p < .01) which indicates that the congruenceshifted significantly as that measure was repeated throughPle student teaching experience.
In order to describe these data, means and standard de-
viations were calculated and are presented in Table 2. The
mean convergence on Group 1 ranged from 3 to 58. The mean
convergence for Group 2 ranged from 27 to 58. The mean con-
vergence for Group 3 ranged from 28 to 63. The mean con-
vergence for Group 4 ranged from 33 to 69. These were stu-
dents from those groups who had an increase in TSRT score when

pre and post tests were compared. The analysis of variancefor these data are presented in Table 3. In this particularcase the only significance was in Factor Co congruence :
(p .01). Table 4 presents the descriptive data for these
students. With this grouping those students in Group 1ranged in mean convergence performance from 26 to 60. Thosein Group 2 ranged from 29 to 55. Those in Group 3 rangedfrom 29 to 58. For the fourth group, the mean convergenceranged from 34 to 53.
The analysis of variance for those students scoringlower on post TSRT than on pre TSRT is presented in Table 5.In this analysis the convergence is significant (p<;.01)which means simply that the nature of the interaction of Aand B was not indicated to be in those groups who scored loweron post TSRT than on pre TSRT.

TSRT Summary
and standard deviations onhilts from pre to post withinn general, when all studentsthe post TSRT scores were lower
Students generally showed varying convergence within allfour groups. There was no consistent pattern within the con-vergence. There is no evidence to conclude that a specificsupervisory treatment influenced the convergence behavior.Therefore, there was no evidence to enable the rejection ofthe hypothesis that there would be no significant differencebetween the overall mean congruence of the workshop teacherssupervised group and the non-workshop teacher supervisedgroups. There was no evidence to reject the hypothesis thatthere was no significant difference between the overall meancongruence of the half-semester group and the full semestergroup.
There was evidence however, to reject the hypothesisthat there was no significant difference between the mean con-gruence of the various observations for, the four treatment
groups. However, there was no uniform pattern of differencesamong these groups. Some groups started with their lowestconvergence and completed the experience with the highestconvergence. Other groups started with a low convergencerising to the high and then dropping off near the end of the
experience. Other groups vacillated between high and lowconvergence, so there appeared to be no systematic effectwithin the convergence data.

MSAI
Data relative to students divided into groups both bytreatment and by level of performance on the Minnesota Stub;dent Attitude Inventory Real version. In this analysis, themedian of the Minnesota Student Attitude Inventory which wasfilled out by student teachers as they perceived their stu-dents would really have filled it out. Those above the med-ian on the MSAI Real were classed as the first level of the BFactor and those scoring below the median were clawed as thesecond level of the B Factor., The analysis of variance forthese data is presented in Table 7.
Among all the analyses only the congruence data showed asignificant variation (p< .01). Looking at each of theselevels of the MSAI factor separately, Table 8 presents thedescriptive data for these groups. The mean convergence inGroup 1 ranged from 28 to 58 with the high performance fall-ing on the fourth observation. The second group ranged from21 to 53. In this group the highest convergence was on thefinal observation. In Group C the convergence ranged from29 to 62. In group 3 also, the general trend was lower tohigher convergence as one proceeded through the observations.In the fourth group, the range was from 37 to 57. However,this group seemed to vacillate between high and low converg-ence on the observations.
The analysis of variance for those people who scoredabove the "edian on MSAI Real is presented in Table 9. Theonly significant variation was in the convergence data acrossthe six repeated measures formed by the observations.
Table 10 presents the descriptive information for:thosewho scored below the median on the MSAI. In those studentsin treatment one who scored below the median on the MSAI therange was from 26 to 60 on convergence, starting with the lowconvergence and going to a high convergence. In treatmentGroup 2 the range was fro'. 34 to 63. This group started witha moderately high convergence dropped to its lowest point nearthe middle and rose again to the end. Group 3 had a range inmean convergence from 24 to 55 proceeding from low convergenceon the first observation to high convergence on the last.Group 4 had a mean convergence range from 22 to 58. Thisgroup vacillated in convergence as it was observed through thesemester.
Table 11 presents the analysis of variance for these data.Factor C, congruence across the six repeated measures,, was theonly significant source of variation.,

the MSAI data. The data is shown for both Real and Ideal con-
ditions in the filling out of the MSAI. Several t tests were
run which indicated that in every case students had a signifi-
cantly different perception of the way they really thoughtstudents would fill out the MSAI as opposed to the way theywould really like their students to fill out this instrument.
Group A had a mean on the Real MSAI of 90.6 and the Ideal
mean was 111.4. Group B had a mean performance on the MSAIReal of 90.5 and on the MSAI Ideal of 112.75. This general re-lationship held throughout all four groups.
As an optional part of the data gathering, the students
who were taught by the student teachers in the study filled
out MSAI forms. Table 13 presents the mean and standard de-
viation of those instruments. The mean MSAI for those stu-
dent teachers in Group A was 86.3 The mean student MSAI forthose in Group,C was 92.1. For groups B and D who had halfsemester experiences there were two MSAI's eadh. In Group B
on the first half of the semester the MSAI mean was 96.7 andthe Group D first half semester mean was 90.7 and in thesecond half semester, the mean was 83.4 for Group B and forGroup D, the mean was 73.2. One might note that the full sem-
ester students who were supervised by Workshop teachers had
students who filled out MSAI's with lower scores than those who
had non-Workshop supervisors. However, those students whohad half semester experiences indicated a patterh reverse ofthe first mentioned, that is, that those student teachers
who had workshop cooperating teachers had students who filledout MSAI's with higher scores than those who had non-workshopcooperating teachers.
Semantic Differential
The Semantic Differential instru"ent measured attitudechanges on the part of student teachers and cooperating teach-
ers. Table 14 presents the total shift and mean shift on the,
Semantic Differential by the student teachers. In general,
most of the shifts were in the negative direction, regardless
of the group.
For ease of analysis, the items were grouped relative to
those in the Clayton Model of koalas, those in the Flanders'
Interaction Analysis. System and the one reaction to the con-
cept teaching itself.
In Group 1, there were negative shifts in almost everysituation except for potency relative to the Clayton Model
items, evalUation and potency relative to the Flanders' items
and potency relative to teaching item. In Group 2, there were
positive shifts in both receptivity and evaluation to the Clay-

Workshop Assessment Index
Table 15 presents the data collected with the WorkshopAssessment Index. These data were collected on the Workshopcooperating teachers at the end of the Workshop and also col-lected on team at the end of the semester. These data alsowere collected on each student teacher at the end of the sem-ester experience and, for those who taught two assignments,these data also were collected at the end of the half-sem-ester period. The Index was scored eilploying the utility ofthe concepts involved and the frequency which those conceptswere used. For the cooperating teachers in Group A, whichwas a full semester assignment, Workshop cooperating teachersproduced a mean of 54 for utility and 48 for frequency. Atthe end of the semester, when measuring how they had super-vised their student teachers, the mean for utility was 39and frequency 35. The student teachers of these people pro-duced a mean for utility of 35 and a frequency of 25. Thesewere less than those produced by the cooperating teacher. InGroup B, the cooperating teachers at the end of the Workshopproduced a utility score of 49 and a frequency score of 45.Their student teachers produced a utility score of 33 and afrequency score of 28. The cooperating teachers for the
,second: half of the semester produced a utility score of 40and a frequency of 32, again lower than that they produced atthe end of the Workshop. The student teachers produced autility score of 29 and produced a frequency score of 19,again considerably less than the scores indicated by thecooperating teacher.
Summary
The findings of the Pilot Study are summarized as followsThere was significant variation in congruence scores in allfour treatments when compared both on levels of TSRT and onwhole TSRT, on levels of MSAI and whole MSAI performance. Thepattern of congruence varied considerably, however, so thatthere was no uniform conclusion that a particular treatmentcaused a particular type of congruence pattern.

The Real versus Ideal perceptions of student teachersfilling out the Minnesota Attitude Inventory form showed thatstudent teachers have considerable variation between theways that they think they actually are perceived and the waythat they would like to be perceived. The student-producedscores on the MSAI were considerably lower than those scoressuggested as Ideal by the student teachers, but were in thesame range as those scores produced by the student teachers.The student teachers had a relatively well informed feelingabout the way students would fill out the M3AI. Attitudesshifted considerably in the process of student teaching asmeasured by the Semantic Differential. Most of the shiftswere in the negative direction.
The Workshop Assessment Index indicated that cooperat-ing teachers found listed techniques to have higher utilityand more frequent utilization in the Workshop than theyfound later when they were actually supervising a studentteacher. It was also found that student teachers producedlower scores for both utility and frequency than the cooper-ating teachers who supervised those student teachers.
auallel from the Continuing Study
The data for the Continuing Study were collected duringthe school year 1968 -1969. In it there were four treatmentgroups. Treatment one consisted of student teachers super-vised by Workshop cooperating teachers who were instructed touse both the videotape recorder and Flanders' InteractionAnalysis as part of the supervisory program. The secondgroup were supervised by Workshop cooperating teachers whowere instructed to use the videotape recorder but not Flanders'Interaction Analysis as part of the supervisory program.The third group were supervised by Workshop cooperating teach-ers who were instructed to use the Flanders' InteractionAnalysis System for supervisory purposes but had no access tothe videotape recorders. The fourth group had cooperatingteachers who were not participants in the Workshop and whowere allowed to use whatever supervisory techniques whichthat supervising teacher felt were appropriate. In order todelineate the analysis, subjects from the Fall semester wereanalyzed separately from those in the Spring semester andthen all subjects were combined into an analysis for the totalstudy.

significant F for any of the factors or interactions in Table16. Looking at the data divided by levels of Factor B, Table17 presents the analysis of variance for those students whoincreased in TSRT score when pre and post test scores werecompared. In this analysis only Factor C, the repeated mea-sure congruence data, produced a significant F.
Table 18 presents the descriptive data for this group ofstudent teachers, those who gained in TSRT score when pre andpost tests were compared. Those students in Group 1, receiv-ing both videotape and Interaction Analysis supervisory tech-niques, had a range in mean congruence from 44.7 to 62.1. The
congruence was the lowest in the first observation and in-creased to the middle observation, decreased again, and thenincreased to the high point at the last observation. Forthose receiving the videotape-only treatment, Group 2, thecongruence data ranged from 44.1 to 63.5. These data decreasedafter the first two observations, increased to the fifth ob-servation, and then decreased again. For the group receiv-ing Interaction Analysis as a supervisory technique, the rangeof mean congruence was 47.6 to 59.5. In this instance thelowest congruence occurred in the first observation and thehighest congruence occurred in the sixth observation.
For the group receiving no specified supervisory tech-nique, the congruence ranged from 43 to 58.4. This congru-ence increased from the beginning to the fourth observationand then diminished again to the sixth observation.
Table 19 presents the analysis of variance for studentswhose TSRT score decreased from the first pre-test administra-tion to the post-test administration. In this analysis onlyFactor C, the within-group change in congruence, produced asignificant F. The descriptive data for these congruencedata is presented in Table 20. For Group 1 the lowest con-gruence was 50.7, the highest congruence was 61.0. The lowestoccurred in the first observation, the highest in the second.All subsequent observations were lower than the second ob-servation.
For the second group, receiving videotape feedback only,the congruence ranged from 47:.,4 to 5501. These congruencesincreased from the first to the fourth observation and thendecreased. For the group receiving only the Flanders' Inter-action Analysis supervisory technique, the mean congruenceranged from 42.4 to 54.5. These were achieved in the secondand third observation respectively. In the fourth groupwith no specified supervisory techniques, the range was from4446 to 67.1. These were achieved in the first and thirdobservations respectively.

Bresq,Ang the data down into the separate-semester analy-ses, Table 21 presents the analysis based on increase or de-crease in TSRT scores for those student teachers assigned inthe Fall semester of the 1968-1969 school year. This analysisshowed a significant F for Factor B which was the shift inTART score and a significant F for Factor C which was thechange in the repeated-measure congruence data across the sixobservations within each treatment grc.up.
Breaking these data into separrite levels of B, Table 22presents the analysis for those subjeats whose TSRT score in-creased when pre and post tests were compared. In this analy-sis only Factor Co the congruence data within the groups,showed a significant F. The descriptive data for this groupis shown in Table 23. The mean congruence data for those whohad increased in TSRT when pre and post tests were comparedand who were in Group 1 receiving both videotape and Flanders'Interaction Analysis supervisory techniques, showed a range inmean congruence from 33.5 to 63.8, the lowest occurred in thefirst observation, the highest in the sixth. For those sub-jects receiving only videotape supervision, the lowest congru-ence occurred ir7othe first observation which was 38.4, thehighest occurred in the fifth observation. This was 62.5.?or those subjects receiving the Flanders' Interaction Analy-sis as a supervisory technique, those subjects produced theirlowest congruence in observation four with 47.8 and theirhighest in observation six, producing 67.8. In the last group,with no specified supervisory techniques, the first observa-tion was the lowest congruence, 32.8. The third observationwas the highest, 55.44.
Table 24 analyzes the data for those subjects with lowerpost test TSRT scores than pre test TSRT scores who taught inthe Fall semester. In this analysis there was no factor orinteraction producing a significant F.
Table 25 presents the mean convergence data for thesegroups. Since there were no significant differences, thesedata were not discussed.
Table 26 presents the analysis of variance for those sub-jents who were assigned to student teaching in the Spring sem-ester of the 1968-1969 school year. In this analysis, FactorB--the level of TSRT score, and the interaction of the treat-ment A with the TSRT level were significant.
Breaking down the data into levels of B so that the inter-action AB can be analyzed, Table 27 presents the analysis ofvariance for those students in the Spring semester who in-creased in TSRT score when pre and post testa were compared.In this analysis there were no significant F's. Therefore,

the descritive data is merely presented in Table 28 and not
discussed.
Table 29 presents the analysis of variance for those stu-
dents who decreased in TSRT score wheA pre and post testswere compared. In this table Factor C, the change in congrui
ence, produced a significant F. The mean congruence data forthis group is presented in Table 30. Toor the group receiving
the combined videotape and Flanders' supervisory techniques,the lowest congruence occurred in the fifth observation of47.0. The highest congruence oor;ureud in the second observa-tion, 66.42. This group markedly decreased in congruencethrough the seftester.
The group receiving only the videotape feedback forsupervision had the lowest mean congruence in the fifth ob-
ervation, 43.4. The highest was in the fourth observation,
62.5. These data seem to vascillate up and down. The groupreceiving just the Flanders' Interaction Analysis supervisorytechnique had, the minimum congruence in the second observa-tion of 39.1, the maximum convergence in the third observa-tion of 56.5. The fourth group with no specified supervisorytechnique had its minimum congruence in the first observa-tion at 39.0, and the maximum in the third observation at62.5.
Table 31 presents the TSRT descriptive data. These data
),re broken down into Fall and Spring as well as indicating";he mean and standard deviation of the scores for the totalcoup. Group 1, receiving the Flanders' Interaction Analy-ls and videotape supervisory techniques, had a mean of 210.9
a a pre test, 209.6 as a post test. In the Fall the pre
test it ean was 210.5, post test mean 209.4. In the Spring pretest mean 211.4, posttest mean 211.0. In each case, the mean
on the posttest was less than the mean on the pretest.
Group 2, who received the videotape supervisory tech-nique only, there was a variation in pattern. The total
group increased from 206.1 to 207.3 on the posttest. The
Fall group increased from 204.8 to 207.3, whereas the Springgremp decreased from 206.4 to 205.9. In the group receivingjust the Flanders' Interaction Analysis, the overall shiftwas down from pre-to posttest of 208.7 to 206.7. The Fall
group showed an increase in mean score, however, from 206.6
to 208.0. The Spring group showed a decrease from 210.9 to
205.3. For those who were in the non-specified supervisorytreatment, the overall performance was an increase in mean
score from 208.6 to 212.6. The Fall group decreased, however,
in mean perfor ftance from 209.8 to 209.0, whereas the Springgroup increased in performance from 204.6' to 215.6.

Summarizing the data with respect to congruence scoresbroken down according to TSRT gains or losses, and TSRT scoresthemselves, while there were significant differences in con-gruence as the sixth measures rare male on the teaching be-havior, there was no consistent pabtrn in congruence in anyone of the levels of TSRT performance or in any one of thetreatment groups. There was no consistent performance inshift on TSRT in any of the treatment ;;soups. Therefore, thenull hypotheses related to any of tbose considerations cannotbe rejected.
MSAI. This section presents the analysis of the databased on the Minnesota Student Attitude Inventory filled outby the student teachers as they perceived their studentswould actually have filled them out. This will be called theMSAI Real score. These data were also analyzed for the totalgroup and for the Fall and Spring semester groups separately.
Table 32 presents the analysis of variance for the con-gruence data separated on the MSAI scores above and below themedian MSAI Real score for all student teachers in the Con-tinuing Study. In this analysis and the subsequent ones inthis section, Factor A is the four treatfient groups, treatmentone being that group which received both the Flanders' Inter-action Analysis technique and the videotape recording. Group2 received only the videotape recording technique. Group 3received only the Flanders' Interaction Analysis. Group 4 hadno specified supervisory treatment.
In the analysis in Table 32, there was no significant F.Table 33 presents the break-down analysis for those people whosc:ored above the median on the MSAI from the total year of thestudy. In this analysis there was no significant F. The de-scriptive congruence data for this group is presented in Table34.
Table 35 presents the analysis of variance for the sub-jects in the entire year who scored below the fiedian on theMSAI Real. There were no significant values for F in thisanalysis, Table 36 presents the data which describes thesecnngruences. Breaking the data down into those who studenttaught in the Fall and those who student taught in the Spring,Table 27 presents the analysis of variance for all studentswho taught in the Fall semester of 1968-69, when broken downon the basis of those whose scored above or below the medianon the MSAI Real. In this analysis, Factor B, the levels ofMSAI was significant and' Factor C, the repeated congruencemeasure within the group, was also significant.
Table 38 shows the analysis of variance on those studentslr the Fall who sbored above the median on the MSAI. In this

analysis, Factor A or the treatments themselves, produced asignificant F. No other factor or interaction showed signifi-cance.
Table 39 presents the congruence data for these subjects.In the first treatment group, the minimum mean of congruencewas 43.4, the maximum was 62.2. These were achieved in thefirst and third observations respectively. The second treat-ment group, receiving only videotape as a supervisory technique,had minimum congruence of 36.0 and maximum congruence at 60.0.These were achieved in the third and fifth observation.
The third treatment group receiving Flanders' InteractionAnalysis treatment, had minimum congruence in the second ob-servation of 39.9 and a maximum congruence in the fourth ob-servation of 67.3. The group with unspecified treatment hadminimum congruence in the second observation of 47.6 and maxi-mum in third observation of 60.15. The highest congruence wasachieved by those in the interaction analysis only group.The second highest was achieved by those in the combinedinteraction analysis and videotape group. There was littleobservable diffeience in congruence performance between thosewho received videotape only feedback and those who had an un-specified treatment for supervisory techniques.
The analysis of variance for the Fall student teachers whoscored below the median on the iSAI is presented in Table 40.None of the factors or interactions was significant except forC, the shift in congruence within the groups. The descrip-tive data for these subjects is included in Table 41.
For the subjects in the first group who received a com-bination of both the videotape and the Flanders' InteractionAnalysis, the minimum mean congruence occurred in the firstobservation, 38.3. The maxifium occurred in the sixth observa-tion, 64.7. In the group receiving only the videotape super-vision, the minimum mean congruence was 35.4 in the first ob-servation and the maximum, 61.9, was in the fifth observation.In the group receiving only the Flanders', the mini ""um congru-ence was in the fourth observation at 34.2 and the maximumoccurred in the sixth observation at 66.0.
In the fourth treatment group, those with no specifiedsupervisory technique, the minimum congruence of 27.5 occurredin the first observation and the maximum of 60.0 occurred inthe last or sixth observation.
Students in the Fall sample who scored below the medianon the NSAI Real showed a definite increase in congruence asthe semester proceded through the six observations. Each ofthe four groups showed the same basic pattern except for the

interaction analysis only treatment group which first wentdown in congruence and then produced higher values.
Table 42 presents the analysis of variance table forthose student teachers assigned in the Spring semester ofthe 1968-69 school year, with B Factor being the scoringabove or below the median on the MSAI. None of these valuesof F was significant, therefore, no analysis of variance wasperformed breaking these data into separate levels of Factor B.
Table 43 and Table 44 present the descriptive data forthose student teachers in this classification.
Table 45 presents the descriptive data for the MinnesotaStudent Attitude Inventory comparing the Real, which was theversion filled out by the student teacher as he perceived hisstudents would have filled it out, and the Ideal, which wasthe student teachers' filling out the MSAI in the way hewould like to have had his students fill it out.
There were marked differences between MSAI (Real) andMSAI (Ideal) scores in all treatment groups whether groupedby fall, spring, or total. There were no large differencesamong the treatment groups on either the real or ideal admin-istrations; therefore, no analysis of variance was performedon these data. The least difference between Real and Idealversions occurred in the group with no specified supervisorytreatment. This group also produced the lowest MSAI (Ideal)scores. The student teachers in the interaction analysisgroup with student teaching assignments in the spring semesterproduced a distribution of MSAI (Ideal) scores with a muchsmaller standard deviation than that produced by any othergroup.
Student MSAI Scores. The Minnesota Student Attitude In-ventory was adoinistered as an optional iteu to students ofthe student teachers who were participants in this study.There were students of student teachers in each experimentalgroup who completed the instrument. In Table 46 there arethe means and standard deviations of the student MSAI scoresgrouped by treatment group and by semester. In the Fall sem-ester the group with the lowest mean score on the MSAI wasthe first treatment group, those students receiving bothFlanders' and videotape as feedback and supervisory treatments.Those students who produced the highest MSAI scores occurredin the group for which were student teachers who had no speci-fied supervisory technique.
In the spring a different pattern prevailed. The lowestscores on the MSAI were produced by students of student

teachers who were supervised using the videotape only as asupervisory technique and the highest scores were produced bythose students of student teachers who received both Flanders'Interaction Analysis and videotape as supervisory techniques.
Workshop Assessment Index Scores. Master teachers whowere in the Summer Workshop filled out Workshop Assessment In-dex forms at the close of the Workshop. These scores are pre-sented in Table 47 in the form of means for utility and meansfor frequency of use divided into the four treatment groupsand into the two semesters. The range on utility across allsix of the groups was 46 to 50. The range on frequency was35 to 48. On frequency the lowest reported mean was from themaster teachers of all semester student teachers who receivedonly the Flanders' supervisory technique and the highest fre-quency was reported by the Workshop teachers who had studentteachers assigned in the Spring semester. Those teachers re-ported a mean frequency of 48.
Supervisory Activities Checklist. The Supervisory Activi-ties Checklist was administered both to student teachers andto master teacher6 in all four experimental groups in both sem-esters. Table 48 presents the frequency of use of supervisorytechniques as reported on that instrument. It is divided intoFall and Spring semesters and into the four treatment groups,then into the student teachers and master teachers fro" eachof those treatment groups. It reports on each item on theChecklist. Items 11 and 12 are concerned with the use of thevideotape equipment. In Groups 1 and 2, where that equipmentwas directed to be used, it was reported to be used by all ofthe student teachers and all but one set of master teachers.In Groups 3 and 4, which were not to use the videotape re-corder, no one in the Fall semester reported its use. However,in the Spring semester, three student teachers and two coop-erating teachers reported using videotape equipment.
Items 13 through 17 concerned the use of the Flanders'Interaction Analysis technique. In Groups 1 and 3, whichare concerned with various aspects of using Flanders' tech-nique, each student teacher and cooperating teacher reporthaving actually used this technique. Ip Groups 2 and 4, wherethis was not specified, only one student teacher reportedusing this technique and two master teachers reported usingit. In the Spring semester, concerned with the same items,Groups 1 and 3 again report heavy use of interaction analysis.In Group 2, at least two student teachers and one cooperatingteacher report actually using the Flanders' technique. InGroup 4 no student teacher reports the use of this technique,but at least four of the master teachers claim that they havemade use of Flanders. Almost every other item was claimed to

have been used by master teachers and student teachers in allfour groups in both semesters.
Semantic Differential. The Semantic Differential was ad-ministered to Workshop cooperating teachers at the beginningand again at the end of their Workshop experience. This sameinstrument was administered to the student teachers in allfour treatment groups. The Senantic Differential containedpairs of adjectives related to three factors; effectivity,potency and receptivity, for each of the twelve concepts givenin the instrument.
Tables 49, 50 and 51 present the total shift in thosefactors on the concepts of the Semantic Differential instru-ment. These totals were equalized so that the effect of dif-ferent sized groups would be eliminated from the table.
Table 52 presents the frequency of positive shifts on theSemantic Differential concepts by cooperating teachers. These
are presented separately by Fall and Spring and then combinedso that a chi-square analysis could be run on these data. The
chi-square for effectivity across the three groups of coopera-ting teachers, was 1.61 which gives a probability less than.50 that these occurred by chance. On potency, the chi-squarevalue was 1.63, the probability was less than .50. For re-ceptivity, the chi-square value was .45 giving a probabilityof less than .80. Each of these probabilities is considerablyless than that which is acceptable for saying one has a sig-nificant difference. Therefore, it is assumed that the Seman-tic Differential did not indicate any significant differencesamong the three groups of cooperating teachers on the conceptslisted in that instrument.
Table 53 presents the frequency of positive shifts onSemantic Differential concepts by student teachers. In thiscase, the four treatment groups are presented, separated byFall and Spring, and combined for purposes of analysis on eachof the factors. On effectivity, the chi-square value was 6.81,probability less than .10. For potency, chi-square value was3.58, probability less than .50. For receptivity, the chi-square value was 2.16, the probability less than .70. Onlythe factor effectivity showed anything approaching signifi-cant differences among the four treatuent groups. These dif-ferences were less than would be required to produce a proba-bility of less than .05 (the level accepted in the rest ofthis document), yet the differences were marked and approachedsignificance. On the effectivity factor those students inGroup 2, the group who received videotape feedback as a super-.visory technique, had more positive shifts than any of theother groups.

Summary. When student teachers were divided withintreatments into groups who gained or lost in TSRT scores whenpre- and posttests were compared, there were significant dif-ferences only on the within-group congruence across the re-peated measuring of that variable. There was no pattern tothis congruence although higher congruences were generally at-tained in the later observations.

The Semantic Differential Instrument indicated strongshifts (ps;.10) among the four treatment groups of studentteachers on the effectivity factor. Those student teachers whowere given videotape-only feedback produced the highest numberof positive shifts. The lowest number of positive shifts oc-cmrred in the no-specified-treatment group.

DISCUSSION
Interpretation of findings
This section deals with the retults of both studies bydrawing inferences from the statistical findings, speculat-ing about their meanings and indicating possible interpreta-
. tions.
A tremendous amount of data has been collected over thetwo-year period. This report deal.; with those data as groupeddata subjected to finite statistical treatment. By design,such treatment precludes other possible groupings of data foranalysis. It necessarily limits or suppresses informationabout individual cases and the dynamics of behavior change instudent teaching.
However, the statistical treatment exposes areas that areworth further investigation on a re-grouped, individualisticor more dynamic basis. It is anticipated that continued studyof these data will delineate some of the relationships thatare hinted at, but not demonstrated, in the statistical analy-sis.
It is recognized that student teaching and its supervisionoccur in a bafflingly extensive complex of variables that canconfound those variables selected for analysis in this study.Even though the "chance" assumptions of a statistical studyhave definite theoretical and practical value, soue aspectsof those "chances" have, in reality, more dynamic cogencythan can be adequately demonstrated in the scope of this study.
The particular school in a particular city at a particulartime--the specific cooperating teacher and student teacher andtheir specific potentials for interaction--the individual stu-dent, the individual student teacher, the particular classroomsituation--these and many other aspects in interaction providean unanalyzed context in which these findings must be considered.
The Pilot Study. It is clear in the Pilot Study findingsthat the main effect, the positive relationship between specif-ic training of the cooperating teacher and the recorded per-formance of the student teacher, was not demonstrated.
However, some somewhat more subtle, expected and unex-pected, relationships were demonstrated, at least in termsof statistical significance,
1. The major finding is that, irrespective of treatmentand other variables, all groups changed significantly frommeasure to measure in congruence of prediction and actual ob-served performance in classroom instructional behavior. The
-106-
general trend was an increasing convergence (even though notconsistently increasing sequentially from measure to measure).
Somehow or other, in the conditions of this study, theexperience of student teaching permitted students to deflon-strate that their instructional behavior became more congruentwith their prediction of that behavior. Whether this is afunction of improved prediction of perceived reality or ofimproved control of instructional behavior, or of a bettermatch between both phenomena, the study did not explicate.
The "implications" section below will speculate furtherupon this question.
2. A second finding is that the TSRT instrument had somesignificant relationships with the degree of congruence ofintent (prediction data) and performance (observation data).
In general, those students who increased in pre-to-postTSRT scores showed a greater increasing congruence than thosewho decreased in TSRT scores.
No prediction of congruence was possible fn.. initialTSRT scores. However, inspection of the data shows that inmost cases the poSt TSRT showed a decrease in scores as com-pared to the pretest. The one exception is in Group A(Workshop supervision on full semester assignment) where anequal number of students increased or decreased. This may in-dicate that there is some efficacy in continued consistentsupervision as compared to more varied experience.
3. The interrelationships of three types of administra-tions of the MSAI produced some significant findings.
By and large, student teachers' estimates of how theirstudents perceived them were very close to the actual ratingsby students. This finding must be accepted very cautiouslysince many classes did not fill out the instrument and thedata are thus derived from an incomplete sample biased in un-known ways.
The mean of students in all groaps 'showed that their de-sired rating on the MSAI (Ideal) was significantly higherthan their estimates of student perceptions (Real). This maybe interpreted to say that student teachers wanted to do bet-ter in the eyes of their students than they actually thoughtthey had done.
The only other difference (consistent but not statisti-cally significant) in the MSAI was that classes who ratedstudent teachers at the end of the first quarter rated themhigher than those who rated their student teachers for the
-10 ?-
second quarter. In contrast, the ratings of those who hadthe same student teacher for the full semester gave a mean rat-ing falling between those of the first and second quarter.
Again this is the inoo"plete and biased sample, and anyinterpretation is suspect. However it is another bit of in-formation which raises the question of the value of full sem-ester placement in student teaching.
4. Using the Semantic Differential as a measure of atti-tude toward teaching and selected aspects of it, there was ageneral shift in a negative direction from thebeginning to the
end of student teaching.
There were interesting variations from group to groupand from section to section of the instrument. Interpretively,no pattern has been found to clarify the meaning of these dif-ferences.
5. The Workshop Activities Assessment Index was designedto get some information about the expectations of Workshopparticipants as to the value of specific supervisory practicesand the frequency with which they expected to euploy them.Some rather fine discrimination among practices were called for.
These discriminations are completely destroyed in thesumming of the rankings for statistical purposes. The statis-tical treat."ent simply sums the weight of all ranks for fre-quency and similarly for value, and makes no distinction foralternative choice possibilities. It is, therefore, a grossmeasure of anticipations of value and frequency.
It is clear that teachers in all groups perceived them-selves as having utilized the summed techniques less frequent-ly than they had anticipated and perceived them as being lessvaluable than they had hoped.
Siftilarly, when students were asked to indicate thepractices that had been used by their cooperating teachers,they perceived the" as using those practices on the Index evenless frequently and with less value..
Interpretations of these findings lie in the actual con-ditions of student teaching in the real world of the school..Cooperating teachers found themselves with insufficient titlefor the kind of supervisory activities they wished to engagein. The pressure of teaching and other responsibilities e-roded their good intentions.
Similarly, the pressures on student teachers and theiranxiety about the many variables in the student teaching.
-108-
situation caused them to attend less to subtle differences insupervisory behaviors.
The question is raised in, these findings about the carryover and continuation value of a training design, however goodit may be, if the conditions for its application are not care-fully structured, monitored and maintained. The question isalso raised about the possible value of concurrent supportivein-service activities as a necessary part of the trainingdesign.
C_ontinuine stELa.. In most respects, the pattern of thefindings from the continuing study was similar to that foundin the pilot study. The following points eophasize the majordifferences.
1. Aille the general trend of congruence was from low con-gruence to high congruence, and while these congruence neasureswere significantly different within groups in most analyses,there were many instances in which the congruence vacillatedconsiderably. This could have been caused by the varying den-sity of spacified treatments in the course of the student-teaching experience. If a videotape had just been recorded oran inter7.ction-analysis matrix compiled just before the researchobservazion, that observation would record prediction and actualbehavior more strongly influenced by the treatment.
2. 3tudent teachers who scored above the median on theNiSAI C.oal) and who taught in the Fall semester produced sig-nificantly different between-group concruences. The group re-ceiving the interaction analysis feedback produced the highestconrgence. The second highest congruence was produced by thecombined interaction-analysis-and-videotape-feedback group.The videotape- only- feedback group produced congruences similarto ,.;'ne no-specified-feedback group. Seemingly the interactionanalysis provided student teachers who perceived themselves as
r,-,nked high by students with analytic skills producinghiler congruence. Videotape feedback did not seem to influ-enc,: this skill measurably.
3. The Supervisory Activities Checklist demonstrated thatth.. prescribed treatment conditions had indeed existed. Thisim;zrurLant did not gather data on the extent to which any super-visory technique was used. The physical assignment of the video-tape apparatus makes it possible to ascertain that no studentteacher could have utilized this feedback system for more than5 poi' cent of the student teaching experience. No similar in-formation can be obtained for the interaction analysis usage.
4. The semantic-differential data indicated considerable
-109-
shift in attitude among the student and cooperating teachers.While there were more shifts in the negative direction thanshifts' in the positive direction, those shifts riere distributedthroughout all treatments with one exception. While not sig-nificantly different, videotape feedback student teachers hadmarkedly more positive shifts than did the other treatmentgroups. This would suggest that the videotape feedback mayhave more affective influence.
5. Generally, student teachers who were assigned in theFall semester showed more measured behavioral change than thoseassigned in the Spring. While no evidence was collected toenable analysis of this phenomenon, it might be speculatedthat time intervening between the Workshop and the assignmentof a student teacher may have diluted the effect of thisactivity. Of course, the season itself or the availability ofstudent teachers for assignment in a particular semester Hayhave been influential.
In summary, while overall data analysis did not supportthe hypotheses, some portions of the student-teacher popula-tion studied produced differential behavioral changes. In thepilot study, certain student teachers defined by TSRT scoresand by full semester assignment showed influence of thesupervisory techniques. In the continuing study, student-teachers who scored above the uedian demonstrated differentialeffects of the feedback although these effects did not occurin the predicted order.
Implications and Recommendations
Implications. Since the findings of the Pilot Study andthe Continuing Study are relatively consistent, their credi-bility is increased. The fact that the over-all relationshipbetween supervisor training and student teacher performanceon the instruments of the study was not demonstrated, andthat more subtle relationships were demonstrated, once againillustrates the complex nature of the variables in studentteaching.
The methodology and instrumentation of the studies per-haps carry more important implications than the findings them-selves. It has been demonstrated that the instruments as usedcan provide a handle for describing and analyzing some of theaspects of student teaching and supervis5on and their relation-ships.
The major measure of the study grew out of the notion of"congruence." For decades, defensible and measurable criteriaof teacher effectiveness or teaching effectiveness have eluded
-110-
educational researchers. Many reasons for this are apparentand will not be elaborated here. It is generally agreed thatthe most desirable, but also most elusive, criteria are thoserelated to the end productlearning by children. In anynaturalistic setting, such as student teaching, such measuresare virtually inpossible espectially over a relatively shortperiod of time.
For these studies, it was decided to use a process vari-able, rather than a product variable. Viewing instruction asan influence process, and viewing the teacher as influencingthe behavior of students by the control he exerts over hisown behavior, the investigators reasoned that a useful criteri-on would be the degree to which the teacher used the instruc-tional behavior he intended to use. Thus they sought a wayto measure the congruence of intent and action in classroominstructional settings.
Among the possible ways to measure congruence it was de-cided to use systematic observations of student teachers inaction combined with prior interviews to determine the studentteacher's intende'd instructional behavior. Put another way,the student teacher was asked to predict his behavior and thenobserved to determine his actual behavior.
The studies have demonstrated that such a criterion andits measure are viable. Observers can be trained in a complexobservational system to categorize and record instructionalbehavior with a high degree of reliability. Congruence asdefined has proved useful for the purposes of these studies.
The data on congruence collected in this study providea rich deposit which could be mined in nany ways. For statist-ical convenience a simple measure of percent of actual talliesfalling in predicted cells was used in these studies. Foradditional analysis or to seek more complex relationships,other methods could be used. For example:
The predictions in both the Pilot and the ContinuingStudies were actually taken in a manner which permittedthe observers to report the relative weight distribu-tion of predicted behaviors as well as simply to deline-ate types of predicted behaviors. Thus, data are avail-able in which prediction matrix zones are designatedas "heavy" and "light" in the Pilot Study, and pre-diction matrix cells designated as "heavy," "medium,"and "light" in the Continuing Study, according tohow much of each lesson was predicted to have beencharacterized by behaviors so labeled. It would beinteresting to know what sorts of convergence statis-
-111-
tics would show up were these weighted approximat-ions to be utilized. In addition, Pilot Study dataare available in which specifically predicted zonesare tallied together, which, if analyzed, would givea portrait of the kinds of interaction predicted bydifferent groups. If compared with a refined analy-sis of the actual teaching data, a still more sophis-ticated set of convergence statistics would be possi-ble.
Instructional analysis data and'congruence data could beanalyzed in a number of non-statistical ways. Do certainspecific strategies lend themselves to greater congruencethan others? In some cases is lack of congruence desirable?In selected individual cases, what are the relationshipsbetween these data and other measures of the study?
The other instruments of the study have demonstrated po-tential usefulness. Continued accumulation of studies usingthe TSRT is justified by the findings.
The SemantiC Differential on concepts in teaching hasproved useful. The disparity of results in the Pilot Studyand the Continuing Study require further explanation. Theinvestigators have a hunch that the very length of the in-strument used in the Pilot Study mitigated against positiveattitudes. Its novelty value in the initial administrationmay have overcome this aspect, while the final administra-tion at the end of a rough semester could enhance the nega-tive. At any rate, there is internal evidence that theshorter form used in the Continuing Study has continuing valuein research in teaching.
The MSAI proved questionable for use with children inthe conditions of these studies. However, its use as a selfreport of perceptions in the Real-Ideal dimensions provedvaluable.
Speculation about the implications of the, findings raisesmore questions than it answers.
It is clear that there was an increase of congruence be-tween stated intent and instructional performance over theperiod of student teaching. The reason for this is not clear.Was it a function of adaptation to the student teaching ex-perience itself? Did the intervention of the interviewer-ob-servers provide an attention and practice effect that causedstudent teachers to change in ways that would not otherwisehave occurred? There is some slight evidence that for defina-ble sub-groups of student teachers, particular supervisory
-112-
activities were related to positive changes.
This increase in congruence, though significant, wasnot dramatic. The overall mean of congruence was approxi-matel fifty percent. Thus, typically, as much unpredictedas predicted behavior occurred.
The general tendency to decrease in TSRT scores and tovary in both directions on the Semantic Differential requiresfurther analysis, especially in regard to relationshipsamong these shifts in individual cases.
The fact that cooperating teachers used specifiedsupervisory techniques less frequently and with less utilitythan they had intended to raises a number of questions.Although there is no hard evidence on this, it appears thatthe everyday demands of the classroom and the school make itextremely difficult to find time to give full attention toadmittedly desirable supervisory activities.
Perhaps the major implication of the findings is thatthe enormously complex series of situations and activitiesthat are called student teaching can be subjected to analysis,but they must be analyzed in a variety of ways that recog-nize their complexity. The ideosyncracies of a particularindividual or a particular situation may prove to be moreinfluential than the evidence provided by grouped data.
Recommendations. On the whole, the study generated datawhich were more suggestive than conclusive. The whole con-ception of the study, particularly the unique Hanner inwhich interaction analysis was being used, provided continuousstimulation for thought and conjecture concerning potentialfuture research in student teaching.
Many of the ideas evoked by the study fall withinthree basic categories. First, during the analysis of thedata there was much interest in but little time for ex postfacto reorganization of the data. Questions were asked con-cerning possible usefulness of different sorts of comparisons.Obviously there are almost limitless possibilities, for this.
Some examples follows
a) A comparison of the data of student teachersworking in urban and non-urban schools.
b) A comparison of the data of student teacherswho taught at different grade-levels.
-113-
0) A comparison of the data of student-teacherswhose cooperating teachers have had elifferentamounts of teaching experience.
d) A comparison of the data of student teacherswhose cooperating teachers had significantlydifferent scores of various measures of atti-tude toward teaching.
e) A comparison of the data of student teacherswho themselves come from urban and non-urbanareas.
f) A comparison of the data of student teacherswho worked in larger and smaller schools.
Second, the new ways in which interaction analysis asbeing used (and indeed the new systems themselves) suggestedstill more possibilities rot:Use of that mode of analysis.Some possibilities which relate closely to the present studyfollow:
a) Training of the student teachers themselves inthe particular interaction analysis system withwhich their treaching will be measured. Thiswould enable them to produce their own predictionmatrices which would eliminate the variabilitywhich occurs among observer prediction interviews.
b) Short of training student-teachers in the appro-priate observation system, it might be possibleto create a uniform prediction questionnaire forstudent teachers to fill out which could thenbe transcribed onto prediction matrices by ob-servers or other trained personnel.
Third, for purposes of training rather than research,discussion and use of interaction analysis data in relationto other measures of teacher performance and attitude raisesa whole series of questions about teaching which might notarise in a context from which such concrete vehicles for dis-cussion are absent. DiscuLsion of the issue of how muchconvergence student teachers made between their predictionand results leads to the question of just what perfect con-vergence would indicate about a single teacher, and whatvarying percentages of convergence between student teacherswould tell about their respective performances. To ask suchquestions, is to begin to explore the nature of effectiveteaching from a somewhat different perspective from the onescommonly taken. To have data on specific kinds of high or.
-114-
low convergence available for comparison with other measuresof teacher and student performance may eventually providenew forms of infornation about the problems of teaching,forms which may be uniquely functional.
fapecific recommendations follow:,
1. Data collected in these studies should be subjectedto continued analysis in terns of individual cases and dy-namic interrelationships among individuals and _situations.
2. The instruments and techniques of this study shouldbe used in continuing research on teaching and studentteaching.
3. The TSRT and Semantic Differential should be usedin both research and training to find and clarify relation-ships among the analytical and the affective dimensions ofteaching.
4. The notion of congruence of intent and actionshould prove useful if incorporated with feedback devicesin teacher education programs.
5. In programs to train cooperating teachers, con-tinued support and in-service follow-up should be provided.
6. Ways must be found to improve the conditions inwhich student teaching takes place so that cooperatingteachers have the time and setting to engage in appropriatesupervisory activities.
SUMMARY
1. In the Introduction to this report the purpose ofthe study and its relationship to related literature onstudent teaching were described.
Both Pilot Study and Continuing Study were attempts toascertain whether training teachers to use specified feed-back practices in supervising student teachers would resultin measurable change in the instructional behavior of theirstudent teachers as compared to student teachers workingwith cooperating' teachers not so trained.
In the Continuing Study, this purpose was further re-fined to assess the differential value of specific practices.
The objectives of the training phase (the Workshops)and the hypotheses of the research phase were explicated.
2. The section on Methods described the training de-sign and the activities of the Workshops which involvedthirty-three prospective cooperating teachers in the summerof 1967, and thirty-five prospective cooperating teachers in
1968. The 1967 group was entirely from the Syracuse CitySchool District; the 1968 group included five teachers fromthree contiguous districts.
Research activities were designed to assess the per-formance of student teachers in the Elementary Teacher Pre-paration Program at Syracuse University who worked with thesecooperating teachers and comparable teachers who had notparticipated in the Workshops.
Observers were trained in relatively complex systemsfor recording observational data on instructional behaviorof teachers and students. They observed each student teacherinvolved in the study six times. These observations tookplace in the Fall semester, 1967, and in both Fall and Springsemesters 1968-69.
Instruments administered to Workshop participants andstudent teachers included the Teaching Situation ReactionTest; a Semantic Differential on concepts of aspects ofteaching; the Minnesota Stude.nt Attitude Inventory, (a) asstudent teachers perceived their ranking by students (Real)and (b) as they would like their students to rank them (Ideal).In addition, in the Pilot Study, a Workshop Activities Assess-ment Index was filled out at the conclusion of the Workshopand by the Workshop Cooperating teachers and their student
-116-
teachers at the conclusion of student teaching. In the Con-tinuing Study, the Index was used at the conclusion of theWorkshop and converted into a Supervisory Activities Check-list which was completed by all participants at the conclu-sion of student teaching.
A computer program was developed to analyze the datagathered from the observations and instrument administration.The primary technique used to detenaine significance of find-
. ings was analysis of variance.
3. Statistical findings were presented textually andin fifty-three tables.
In all groups there was a statistically significant in-crease in congruence over the student teaching semester.
Differential effects of feedback among the groups ofthe Continuing Study were statistically demonstrated onlywith student teachers who were assigned in the Fall semester1968 and who scored above the median on MSAI (Real). Thosein the above classification who received interaction analy-sis feedback produced the highest convergence.
Full sellester student teachers in the Pilot Study pro-duced more consistent behavioral change than those given twohalf-semester assignments.
For all groups in both studies, there were marked dif-ferences between MSAI (Real) and MSAI (Ideal) with the Idealbeing consistently higher. There were no apparent differen-ces among the groups.
There were predominantly negative shifts in attitudesmeasured by the Semantic Differential in the Pilot Study.In the Continuing Study, there were about as many positiveshifts as negative. Student teachers receiving vider,tapefeedback produced more positive shifts than the other groups.
4. In discussing the findings, the statistical resultswere interpreted and speculation about their implications waspresented. Recommendations were made about training designsand further research in this area.
While the analyses did not demonstrate differential ef-'feats of the supervisory feedback in all groups studied, evi-dence pointed to the existence of such effects in certaingroups. The intensification of treatment and the developmentof processes for student teachers to form their own prediction
-117-
matrices might have produced a more marked effect as well asmore precise measurement of that effect.
Only a few of the variables in the complex student teach-ing process were investigated, but those have given new in-sights into the nature of the proceset

We should like to get as much data as possible for our student teach-ing research project, including the reaction of children to the stud-ent teacher. Hence, we would like you to administer the MinnesotaStudent Attitude InventorY.
However, wa recognize that there are two problems: (1) Some schoolsdo net wish to expose children to this type of instrument, and (2)tie instrument may be too difficult for children in Kindergarten andlower &Jades, Therefore, we must leave the use of this to your dis-cretion. If you decide to administer it, please follow the directionsbelow in order to standardize administration as much as possible.
1. Give children the directions and answer sheet.
2. Read to them or with them the material on the form.
3. Answer any necessary questions.
4. You may either read the inventory items to the students or givethe inventory to them to do. This will depend upon your assess-ment of their ability to handle it with a minimum of help.
5. If you are reading the items to the students, read the item asit is. If further explanation is necessary, you may then re-word, parlphrase, or explain. Similarly you may elaborate ifindividuals need help on item interpretation when they arereading the item.
6. For some classes, it may be batter to do no more than twentyitems at one time, and then return for a second and third ad-ministratilt. The answer sheet is set up in three columns tofacilitate chis.
7. Please make it clear to the children that they are to react tothe student teacher and the classroom situations that existedwhile 7FrgtiriletThcher was in charge. This is probablybest done by referring tee the student teacher by. name.

The Blass is scheduled to meet the last hour of the day on Tuesdayand Thursday during the last half year ,Arrangements have beenmade so that the class might take trips and students might have anopportunity to meet informally with the teacher after class.
Around the first of November your principal calls you in to tellyou that if you are interested, you have been chosen to teach theexperimental class. You were asked because of your background inernild psychology and your interest in helping youngsters withminor problems of adjustment typical of the pre-adolescent °
Your principal has given you pretty much of a "free hand" to developthe oentent of the course and the activities in which the studentswill be engaged, A good supply of instructional materials, books'on children, and descriptions of similar programs in other schoolshas been made available to you, There will be no direct supervisionof your work, but an eval:uation by students and yourself will berequested at the middle and close of the semester, Studies willalso be made of the gain in personal adjustment evidenced by yourstudents° You know the names of the students who have signed upfor your course, An experienced teacher-counselor has been askedby the principal to help.you when and if you ask for help, Theteacher-counselor knows well each of the youngsters who have signedup for your class.
The GroaE:
Some of the youngsters who have signed up for the course know eaebother very ell, having gone through school together, Three do notknow anyone else in the group, Others are only casually acquainted°Members of the group have a variety of interests arid abilities,and they represent many levels of competence and come from a varietyof socio- economic backgrounds. The quality of their personaladjustment varies, but none Is seriously maladjusted,

Sometimes you may feel that you have dealt with the same item morethan once on this instrument. This will not be the case, so do notlook back and forth through the items. Do not try to remembirhowyou cEliEReFiiiriflifs items earlier. Make each item a se orate and
a.independent judgment. Work at fairirEre-iiiiirthro sity. Do not worry or puzzle over individual items. It is yourfirst impressions, the immediate "feelings" about the items, thatwe want. On the other hand please do not be careless, because wewant your true impressions.
