Summary: | Alphacrucis College, Australia, has developed a Clinical Teaching Model (CTM) as an option within the initial teacher-training awards. The Alphacrucis College model intentionally combines the pre-service teachers' spiritual formation with their professional development. This article reports on an evaluation of the CTM students' experience compared with that of students under the traditional approach. The key findings confirm an increased sense of self-discipline and confidence, and an overwhelming appreciation for the practical application without assessment. The students appreciated that in the CTM process, faith was being coupled with their calling to teach. |
