Abstract

This study examines the frequency with which student teachers reflected in curricular embedded practical phases and in self-initiated non-university practical phases. n = 383 Bachelor's and n = 418 Master's students participated in the study. They judged their reflection frequencies on two reflection-related activity dimensions: the "application of theory" and the "analytical-reflective treatment of situations". Supporting the hypotheses, it was shown that students in the Master's internship reflected more frequently than in the Bachelor's internship and that students in curricular embedded practical phases reflected more frequently than in non-university practical phases. The consideration of the programme as an influencing factor showed that prospective teachers at vocational schools reflected less frequently in field experience than prospective teachers at general schools. The difficulty in applying theory and reflecting in practical phases is explained by the assumptions of an expertise development model.
