Determining to Which Degree Pedagogical Teacher Training Serves the Teaching Profession A Scale Development Study

The quality of teachers being trained is crucial for advanced countries. This can be seen from the fact that they frequently question their higher education process and teacher training systems. Teacher training processes have also been questioned in Turkey and there have been some adjustments. At this point, teacher candidates can take pedagogical teacher training for a few years in addition to their undergraduate degree and become a teacher. Is this pedagogical teacher-training sufficient? Do teacher candidates think that they can satisfactorily serve as teachers after this training? This study is based on the desire to make it easier to find answers to these questions. The results of this study show that the Scale to Determine to Which Degree Pedagogical Teacher Training Serves the Teaching Profession (PFEOOHEDO) is a valid and reliable measurement instrument.
