El prácticum como espacio para potenciar las competencias profesionales necesarias para la enseñanza

Abstract

Scientific literature relating to the training of teachers informs us that the practicum constitutes one of the most important components of initial training in the construction of the professional knowledge of the future teacher. With this in mind, we show in this paper an interesting and novel area of research which emerges from the practicum as an essential period for developing and strengthening the knowledge, abilities, skills and other necessary aptitudes for teaching. From this new perspective, and in the pursuit of excellence in the practical training, we show the types of knowledge and professional skills that should be acquired by future teachers.
