Abstract

Prospective teachers' shifts of pedagogical beliefs over time were examined in this study. There were significant differences found between beliefs reported at the onset of a teacher education program when compared to beliefs reported at graduation and after one year of employment.

The findings revealed the changes of prospective teachers' beliefs as a result of participation in one early childhood teacher education program.
