| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Teachers should be trained and educated with much emphasis on practical knowledge. Unlike theoretical knowledge, however, it is hard, if not impossible, to verbalize personal practical knowledge, which often makes it difficult for teachers to efficiently share practical knowledge in their communities of practice. We, therefore, opted to focus on pre-service teachers' felt sense (i.e., a combination of emotion, awareness, intuitiveness, and embodiment) perceived during teaching practica, and to investigate the process of verbalization of felt sense by analyzing three data sets: interviews, English poetry writing, and autobiographical narratives. Major research findings include, but not limited to, the identification of affective factors that interact with and/or influence cognitive factors in the acquisition process of practical knowledge, the nature of teacher reflection, and the feasibility of Thinking At The Edge (TAE) incorporated into reflection activities.
