Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine research being conducted on student teaching in four eminent music education research journals ( Journal of Research in Music Education, Journal of Music Teacher Education, Update: Applications of Research in Music Education, Bulletin of the Council for Research in Music Education). A total of 1,103 articles were reviewed for the period between 1997 and 2011. Only 87 (8%) articles met the inclusion criteria. These included 44 articles in Journal of Music Teacher Education (29% of total), 20 articles in Journal of Research in Music Education (5% of total), 18 articles in Bulletin of the Council for Research in Music Education (5% of total), and 5 articles in Update (3% of total). Consistent with previous research on student teaching, a majority of the publications examined dealt with student teachers’ perceptions of their experiences (33%), and the relationship between teacher preparation programs and partner K–12 schools (26%), whereas only one publication (1%) examined the effect of student teachers on students’ learning.
