South African teacher application process: the interview.

Abstract

An important aspect of teacher training is the preparation of teachers for the teacher post application process. Besides the formal application process, shortlisting and interviews form an integral part of this process. The video captures only the interview process where five candidates are interviewed in front of the whole class. The candidates for the interviews and panel members were all students in their final year of study towards a teacher education qualification preparing teachers to teach their specialisation subjects to grade 10 - 12 learners in the Further Education and Training (FET) phase. Although the interview was done with FET students, the video could be useful for all students in teacher training.
