Rethinking Student Teacher Feedback: Using a Self

This study examines 10 preservice teachers’ use of Freiberg’？s Person-Centered Learning Assessment (PCLA), a self-assessment measure.

Study findings indicate that the 10 student teachers identified future pedagogical changes as a result of utilizing the PCLA, with eight student teachers specifically identifying changes in their classrooms prior to completion of the study. As explored in this study, self-assessments seem to provide novice educators with a unique form of feedback and have the potential to lead to deeper levels of pedagogical self-reflection and resulting changes
