Abstract

The purpose of this qualitative research is to examine the views of the Instructors on micro teaching technique. Content analysis was conducted in the analysis. Criterion sampling was used for the study group included in the sample. Instructors teaching micro teaching, special teaching methods or teaching principles and methods courses were determined as the criterion. As a result, the instructors expressed their views on the contribution of micro teaching technique to the professional development of teacher candidates, such as applying different teaching techniques, principles, methods, recognizing deficiencies, self-assessment, self-confidence, gaining experience, providing preparation for the teaching profession and the opportunity to get to know the classroom environment. According to instructors, micro teaching technique provides critical thinking skills, improves cooperation skills and problem solving skills in relation to the effect of the micro teaching technique on the solution of the problems that the teacher candidates may encounter in their professional lives.
