Assessing learner needs through formative evaluations in a prescriptive course: Self-reflection of teaching practices through student input

Pedagogical practices, or methods on "how to teach", taught in teacher education programs need to be modeled (Jay, 2002) by the teacher educators to maximize the teacher candidates' learning and lay the foundation for developing a deeper understanding for effective instruction (Grossman, 1991; Shulman, 1983), a practice not typically occurring in teacher preparation programs (Donovan & Green, 2009).
