Abstract

This project has been carried out in order to know the expectations about the Practicum module of the Master’s Degree in Secondary Teacher Training, with the main aim of knowing the opinions about the development of skills in this module. 353 students attending this Master at the University of Cordoba have been surveyed with a Likert scale questionnaire after the development of teaching practices in secondary schools. Results show significant differences among their expectations and achievements in the competences of the Practicum. We believe that these results are useful to improve the understanding of the opinions of students, identifying their training needs and thoughts and in order to develop proposals to improve the initial training of secondary school teachers in the future.
