The study in this research is aimed to see the description of anxiety on teacher candidates based on direct experiences encountered during the teaching practice at school. Many factors causing a teacher candidate to experience anxiety, including cognitive domain, somatic domain, and pedagogic domain factors. This study used a qualitative method with phenomenological approach. Subject used in the study were selected by using the purposive sampling technique, in which teacher candidates are those who have passed the micro-teaching prerequisite subject. The reflection analysis results of teachers candidates indicate that they experienced anxiety during their initial activities at school. Teacher candidates lost the feeling as the time passed and when they have adapted to the environment and condition of students. Some discovered reasons have caused anxiety on teacher candidates when they conduct direct teaching practices in class, such as getting anxious about not being able to deliver materials properly according to the pre-made plans in the learning implementation plan (PPL) and getting anxious about not being able to be a good teacher. Reflection results provide an illustration of how the correlation among psychological factors also needs to be considered in preparing teacher candidates who are ready to directly implement learning in class. This condition indicates the need for in-depth and comprehensive studies regarding psychological factors, and can be made as the evaluation material for education providers of teacher candidate to put their attention on this matter. Keywords: anxiety, teaching practice, physics.

Prospective Elementary School Teachers have difficulty in understanding the science concepts. Beside, they are generally low in curiosity, passive in discussion, and lack of collaboration on microteaching activities. This study aims to: (1) Reveal how to apply the experimental-based LSQ learning model on microteaching activities for elementary school teacher candidates; (2) Examine the increase in curiosity and understanding the concept of science. The method used is a Quasi-experiment method with purposive sampling technique. The sample are 31 elementary school teacher candidates from Universitas Sains Al Quran, Wonosobo, Indonesia. The data about understanding the concept was collected through a test with 30 questions. The data about curiosity was collected by questionnaires and observation sheets. The results showed that there is an increase in the understanding of the concept based on the gain test of 0.3. Furthermore, based on the t-test of 4.01 and t-table of 1.99 (tcount t-table = 4.01 1.99), LSQ model is effective in increasing the curiosity. Curiosity through the four main skills found, namely: questioning skills, reinforcement, explanation skills, and classroom management. The average result of the competency percentage on LSQ learning is 72% (medium category). LSQ is strongly recommended to be applied by prospective elementary school teachers.

Students who are mathematics teacher candidates have different mathematical communication skills. They carry out mathematics learning when doing teaching practice. Their mathematical communication skills greatly influence the communication that is implemented into mathematics learning in the classroom. This study aims to describe the mathematical communication profile of female students who are mathematics teacher candidates. The participant of this study was a female teacher candidate who was carrying out teaching practice (PPL) at the training school. Data collection was done by recording the implementation of learning, which was presented through learning video transcripts and analyzed by data reduction, data displaying, and interpretation-verification. The results of this study are prospective female teachers always ask students to repeat their answers, to ensure the answers mentioned. This has resulted in the fact that female mathematics teacher candidates are not strict in making decisions, seem rambling in making decisions. The nonverbal communication of female teacher candidates is a clear voice heard throughout the class; ways/gestures, movements of appearance and facial expressions show calmness and smile to students, so learning flows smoothly.

It is stated that one of the most important stages in the training of a teacher is that teacher candidates gain practical teaching experience in schools (Ünlüönen & Boylu, 2007). Together with the lecturers in the faculty, the people who will contribute to the training of the teacher candidate and guide the teacher candidate in the school dimension of the process, namely the application part, are the practice teachers. MoNE defines the practice teacher as "the teacher who has a teaching formation in the practice school, selected from among the experienced teachers, guides and counsels the teacher candidate in gaining the behaviors required by the teaching profession". Practice teachers should be open to collaboration, willing to introduce teaching-learning processes, and sharing (Coşkun & Yalın Uçar, 2012). Since the application students gained their first professional experience under the guidance of the practice within the scope of the Teaching Practice course, the practice teacher should understand the importance of this process and know his responsibility. Teacher candidates find the opportunity to apply the knowledge they have acquired at the end of their 4-year undergraduate education in a real environment for the first time. Based on these points, the aim of this study is to evaluate the opinions of preschool student teachers studying at the same university and practice teachers about their practices in preschool education institutions within the scope of the "Teaching Practice I-II" course. This research was carried out to determine the opinions of 10 pre-school teachers working in 5 state kindergartens randomly selected from Küçükçekmece, Bakırköy and Ataköy districts of Istanbul province and 10 preschool stundent teachers studying at a foundation university in Istanbul on Teaching Practice I-II courses. Within the scope of the research, two data collection tools, "Teacher Interview Form" and "Student Interview Form", were used. The teachers and student teachers were determined by using the "snowball sampling" method. In the research, semi-structured interviews were conducted with a total of 20 people, including 10 preschool student teachers and 10 practice teachers. While the student teachers found the education they received at the university as theoretical and they could not implement activities that might interest children in the classroom, the practice teachers stated that the presence of teacher candidates in their classrooms provided an advantage especially in terms of supporting them in art activities, but they did not find their classroom management dominance sufficient. While the student teachers found their communication with them good, they stated that the student teachers should improve themselves in the activity implementation processes.

Students of Faculty of Teacher Training usually will undergo field experience practice when they are at higher semester, usually at 6th and 7th semester.  In their sixth semester they will undergo field experience practice I (PPL I), and at seventh semester, they will undergo field experience practice II (PPL II). In PPL II, they will undergo pre-service teacher training in the form of classroom teaching involvement.  They will be given an opportunity to conduct a teaching practice at school where they are assigned. It is worth knowing that although all the students who undergo PPL have been provided with some theoretical knowledges related to teaching and learning process, such as how to teach in class, how to conduct an evaluation, how to construct testitem, etc,  yet, they still have experience some problems in the field.  One of the most outstanding problems the writers found and has drawn the writer’s attention was the test item construction and its appropriateness towards the indicators. The design of this research was descriptive qualitative. The location of the research was the library of STKIP PGRI Banjarmasin, Jl.Sultan Adam Komp. H. Iyus No.18 Rt.23 Banjarmasin. The data source was the document of PPL II report.  The document was taken from the students’ PPL II report year 2015. The population of the research was the PPL II report of the seventh semester students of English Department of STKIP PGRI Banjarmasin who had taken PPL II and who conducted the PPL II at Senior High school. Since the number of PPL II report consisted of more than 120 RPP reports, then the writers took a sample. The sampling technique used was proportional random sampling. The sample taken was 12 RPP reports which consisted of six reports for middle test and six reports for final test. The result of this research is the test item constructed in PPL II reports mostly inappropriate toward indicators. The inappropriateness (75%)are mostly caused by no test items provided in RPP.
