Synopsis

Master's Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Pedagogy - The Teacher, Educational Leadership, grade: PASS, The University of Malaya (LANGUAGE AND LITERACY EDUCATION), language: English, abstract: The purpose of this research is to examine the personal teaching metaphors ofthree Malaysian ESL pre-service teachers and to explore the extent to which sociocultural factors namely previous schooling experience, teacher education program and curriculum specifications may influence their conceptions of teaching. This case study looked into how their choice of metaphors relate to their pedagogical beliefs and practice. It also tries to examine the extent to which previous schooling experience, teacher education programme, and KBSM curriculum specifications influence the ESL pre-service teachers' pedagogical beliefs and practice. Instruments used were semi-structured interview and reflective task assigned to them after their teaching practicum at local government schools. Findings indicated that the pre-service teachers have multiple roles which are represented by various metaphors that they produced in their reflective tasks. The three most common roles include meeting students' needs, varying teaching approach, and facilitating students. The study also found that previous schooling experience and teacher education programme have the most influence on all the pre-service teachers' beliefs and practice.
