Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine the views of teachers and managers about art, music and drama activities that are carried out by in-field-teachers in early childhood education institutions. In the line of this purpose, semi-structured interview form prepared by the researchers was used for one to one interviews. Quantitative research techniques were used in order to examine the results of the research. Results show that the managers, early childhood educators and in-field-teachers have both positive and negative ideas about field courses which are carried out by the in-field-teachers.
