Development of acmeological competencies of future preschool organisation teachers

Abstract

The research aimed to develop the acmeological competencies of future preschool organisation teachers. The research was applied in the spring term of 2021–2022. The study, which was carried out with the participation of 228 pre-service teachers, was carried out in the survey model. In the study, acmeological education was given to pre-service teachers with 4-week distance education. To collect data in the study, the ‘activating potential and competence’ data collection tool developed by the authors of the study was used. The findings collected from the data collection tool used in the research have been added to the research in the form of tables and comments. When the results obtained are taken into consideration, it is seen that the acmeological status of the pre-service teachers participating in the research was improved and they will use this field in their education.
