Development of an assessment system for quality assurance of teacher education by community collaboration
Description: This study aims to maintain and improve the quality of teacher training courses through mutual evaluation among universities toward quality assurance. Despite the impact of COVID-19, we conducted a survey and mainly clarified the following points: Coordination with municipal boards of education helped university teachers and preservice teachers recognize educational issues in the region, leading to a review of the teaching curriculum at their university. Preservice teachers valued experiential learning opportunities as an initiative that would develop practical leadership skills. However, it is necessary to set appropriate policies for teacher training courses and improve ways to secure potential students for the teaching profession.
