Abstract: Several researchers have reported evidence that preservice teacher preparation “washes out” during the induction period (e.g., Lortie, 1975; Ryan, 1990; Zeichner & Tabachnik, 1981) or can be “miseducative” (Feiman-Nemser & Buchmann, 1983). In fact, these ideas have become part of the lore of teacher education, even though very few studies of the development of teachers’ thinking have followed teachers past the first one or two years of their induction into the field (see Nias, 1989, and Huberman, 1989, for exceptions). Kenneth Zeichner and Daniel P. Liston (1987) suggest several aspects of teacher education that impede the development of reflective teaching during the induction years. Among these are apprenticeship models of preservice teacher education, ideological eclecticism, and structural fragmentation.
