Research and Aims of the Course
The research itself required an early specification of aims to enable
the establishment

amenable to measurement and thus to

constraint was quite apparent in the
problem of expressing the structural dimensions of the innovation
as objectives which could be operationalised and measured. The aims
are presented below:
a) To provide a more realistic teaching practice
period - showing the students the teaching
situation as it really is.
b) To produce a situation where the students were
accepted by the other teachers as colleagues,
present over a long time period and gradually
taking a larger share of the workload, rather
than as alien intruders adding to the burden
of work.
c) To produce a situation where the student teachers
were gradually accepted by the pupils as being
real teachers and not ’just students', and thus
it was hoped reducing the discipline problems
met by all beginner teachers.

Such aims do not necessarily follow from the statements referring
to the extent of the innovations which eventually are to do with
the structure of the course.
