@article{2016,title={THE PERSPECTIVES OF BOTH PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS AND THEIR EDUCATORS ON EFL TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS IN TURKEY},abstractNode={The fact that teacher education programs need a systematic evaluation has been emphasised by many researchers. The present study aims to investigate the pre-service EFL teachers’ views on EFL teacher education programs they attend in Turkey and their instructors by means of Peacock’s (2009) recent evaluation model. This study is based on the data collected from fourth grade ELT department students and their instructors via questionnaires and interviews. The results obtained through data collection tools revealed that the pre-service EFL teachers had a strong agreement in general with the program they were attending. However, the programs were stated to have some shortcomings and some suggestions were put forward to be taken into consideration to overcome those shortcomings.},author={Ferhan KARABUĞA},year={2016},journal={International Journal of Language Academy}}
