Focusing on preservice classroom teachers (PCTs) with a physical education (PE) specialization, this exploratory case study aimed at investigating the teaching quality in the lessons offered by these teachers during their field placement, as well as examining their views about teaching PE. Toward this end, seven volunteer female PCTs studying at a national university in Cyprus were recruited; all had attended three PE specialization courses before their field placement. Data were gathered through systematic observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. The quantitative data were analysed using SPSS and the qualitative data using case and cross-case analysis. These analyses suggested that the PCTs could effectively employ classroom and time management as well as skill demonstration; they could also provide quality student practice. In contrast, task progression, accountability of student practice, and task explicitness appeared to be more challenging for them to successfully enact. Interestingly, their lesson plans foreshadowed how effectively most of the examined practices would be employed by the PCTs. This study contributes a new understanding of PCTs’ PE teaching during field placement and their views thereof. The implications of the findings for PCTs’ education are discussed.

本探索性案例研究以体育 (PE) 专业的职前课堂教师 (PCT) 为重点，旨在调查这些教师在实地实习期间提供的课程的教学质量，并检查他们对体育教学的看法。为此，招募了七名在塞浦路斯一所国立大学学习的志愿女性 PCT；在他们的实地安置之前，所有人都参加了三门体育专业课程。数据是通过系统观察、半结构化访谈和文件分析收集的。定量数据采用SPSS进行分析，定性数据采用案例分析和跨案例分析。这些分析表明 PCT 可以有效地利用课堂和时间管理以及技能演示；他们还可以提供高质量的学生练习。相比之下，任务进展、学生实践的责任感和任务明确性似乎对他们成功实施更具挑战性。有趣的是，他们的课程计划预示了 PCT 将如何有效地采用大多数经过审查的做法。本研究有助于对PCTs在实地实习期间的体育教学及其观点有新的认识。讨论了研究结果对 PCT 教育的影响。本研究有助于对PCTs在实地实习期间的体育教学及其观点有新的认识。讨论了研究结果对 PCT 教育的影响。本研究有助于对PCTs在实地实习期间的体育教学及其观点有新的认识。讨论了研究结果对 PCT 教育的影响。
