OF PEDAGOGICAL PRACTICES IN AZERBAIJANI LANGUAGE TEACHER EDUCATION: STUDENT PERSPECTIVES
This research aims to examine the views of prospective teachers on the pedagogical practice process in the teacher training process in Azerbaijan. The research was conducted with a qualitative case study design and a semi-structured interview form was used. The findings revealed that theoretical courses were based on memorization, while practical courses were inadequate. In addition, difficulties such as lack of materials in the classrooms (smart boards, projectors) and inadequate guidance from experienced teachers during the internship were noted. Prospective teachers stated that they gained didactic skills such as creating effective motivation, using interactive education methods, establishing effective communication with students and evaluation during the internship. The research emphasizes that teacher educators need a clearer knowledge base for internship training and development in this field. The results show that the gap between theory and practice in the education process in Azerbaijan should be closed and that prospective teachers should be supported more effectively in education.
