Abstract

dc:description

This study examined the longitudinal qualitative inquiry of seven beginning teachers' teaching experiences in urban schools and the sources of their knowledge. The purpose of this study was to describe the socially constructed and contextual nature of an internship in urban schools for preservice teachers and their beginning teaching experiences, and the entities from their backgrounds that influenced their thinking and helped to develop attitudes and skills essential to teach in an urban school.
