Abstract

This research addresses the topic of professional development for student teachers. Its main objectives include: identifying the current state of professional development for student teachers, demonstrating its impact on their classroom performance, and pinpointing the most significant difficulties and obstacles hindering effective professional development. The research employs a descriptive-analytical approach, reviewing scientific literature and research papers published in journals and academic theses. The research yielded several key findings, including: the use of modern educational technologies is an essential component of effective professional development and contributes to the development of teaching methods; and some student teachers face challenges such as limited training programs and inadequate follow-up and supervision. The research offers several recommendations, including: organizing regular training courses and workshops for student teachers to enhance their professional skills; strengthening partnerships between colleges of education and schools to ensure the integration of theoretical and professional aspects with practical application; and encouraging future research and studies that evaluate and continuously improve student teacher programs.
