Abstract

The purpose of this systematic literature review was to understand trends in field experiences that were part of early childhood special education (ECSE) teacher preparation activities. Thirteen studies that included an analysis of ECSE teacher candidates (TCs) completing at least one field experience, including coursework-based practicums or student teaching internships, were published between 2013 and 2022 and reviewed. Specifically, we examined the demographics of TCs and student participants to understand who was included in this research. Field experience parameters including setting, duration, instructional approach, and instructional focus were reviewed to draw comparisons between the various approaches to structuring TCs’ early teaching opportunities. Finally, specific learning activities and feedback opportunities within field experiences, as well as TC and student outcomes of the studies, were explored to determine current trends and findings. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

幼儿特殊教育师范生的实地体验：系统回顾

本系统性文献综述旨在了解作为幼儿特殊教育（ECSE）教师准备活动一部分的实地体验的发展趋势。2013年至2022年期间发表的13篇研究报告对完成至少一次实地体验（包括基于课程的实习或学生教学实习）的ECSE教师候选人（TCs）进行了分析，并对这些研究进行了综述。具体而言，我们考察了教师候选人和学生参与者的人口统计学特征，以了解本研究的参与者情况。我们还审查了实地体验的参数，包括环境、持续时间、教学方法和教学重点，以比较不同的培训中心早期教学机会构建方法。最后，探讨了实地体验中的具体学习活动和反馈机会，以及教师培训和学生的研究成果，以确定当前的趋势和发现。讨论了研究和实践的意义。

期刊介绍： Topics in Early Childhood Special Education (TECSE) communicates information about early intervention, which is defined broadly and includes services provided to (a) infants, toddlers, and preschoolers who are at risk for or display developmental delays and disabilities and (b) the families of such youngsters. TECSE includes articles on personnel preparation, policy issues, and operation of intervention programs. The intent is to publish information that will improve the lives of young children and their families. Manuscripts from (a) diverse theoretical perspectives, (b) all disciplines related to early intervention, and (c) all authors with information of value to the early intervention community are welcome. There are two topical issues—which address an identified problem, trend, or subject of concern and importance to early intervention—and two non-topical issues.
