Processus de jugement d'evaluation des competences professionnelles en contexte de stage en emploi: quand les stagiaires sont egalement des collegues
In the context of a shortage of qualified teaching staff (Dupriez et al., 2023), paid internships are gaining in popularity, but they are forcing the pre-service training and work environments to rethink their collaboration. With this in mind, we developed a paid internship program as part of a research project conducted in partnership with a school board. The aim of the study is to document the issues perceived by the trainers involved in the assessment of skills in the context of paid internships regarding their assessment judgement process. As paid internships opportunities are recent in elementary and secondary teacher training programs, our article will contribute to the development of knowledge about their impact, which is currently scarcely documented (CSE, 2023). Therefore, we conducted a content analysis (Krippendorff, 2013) based on transcribed semi-directed interviews in order to identify emerging and recurring themes regarding the perceptions of the trainers (n = 8) pertaining to issues perceived in their evaluation judgement process in this context. Our results highlight several issues arising from the status of colleague, involving a change in the relationships between individuals involved, on the characteristics of the process of assessing the professional skills of trainees. Our proposal points to a need to clarify the roles of trainers in the context of paid internships, particularly with regard to evaluation.

Les manifestations de discrimination dans l'evaluation informelle des competences professionnelles de futures enseignantes du primaire issues de la migration en contexte de stage
Future primary school teachers with a migrant background (FEIMs) represent a population that has been relatively under-researched. Focusing on students from the University of Teacher Education in the canton of Vaud, Switzerland, we have chosen to shed light on certain less-visible aspects of the assessment of their competencies during internships. In particular, we aim to highlight the gap that is sometimes observed between the prescribed evaluation process, including attempts to grant it some degree of objectivity, and the reality of the judgements made about their competencies, judgements apparently influenced by these students' ties to migration. The findings, from qualitative research based on semi-structured interviews, suggest that, at least in the context of formative and informal evaluations of FEIMs during internships, they are subject to stereotypes and expressions of doubt regarding their competencies, similar to those they have already encountered in their prior educational experiences. Therefore, their teacher training does not seem to shield them from the expression of doubts related to their migrant background.

Being An Introverted Teacher: Student Teachers’ Experience During the Internship Program
Background/purpose. This research aims to explore the extent to which student teachers' introverted personalities influence classroom management during an internship program. Many student teachers with introverted traits may face difficulties in managing classrooms due to limited verbal interaction, anxiety and challenges in handling disruptive behaviour.Materials/methods. This research uses a qualitative research design with a narrative approach to collect participants' life experiences. The sample consisted of six student teachers majoring in English Education with identified introverted personalities, selected through the Eysenck Personality Inventory (EPI) and interviewed using semi-structured protocols.Results. The research results show that introverted personalities influence various aspects of classroom management, including the construction of lesson planning, selection of teaching methods, utilization of learning media, creation of a conducive learning atmosphere, student-teacher interaction, and evaluation.Conclusion. The current study highlights that introverted teachers' personalities affect their classroom management. Therefore, to address this, the university should offer intensive training programs to equip student teachers with strategies to improve their effectiveness. Increased opportunities for practice can also help build their confidence level and communicative competence, hopefully leading to a more engaging learning environment. The findings provide insights for teacher education institutions in designing personality-sensitive training programs to enhance student teachers’ preparedness and teaching performance.

Experiential learning model: improving entrepreneurial values through internship program at start-ups
PurposeThe development of teaching methods in the field of entrepreneurship education is a challenge for academics to achieve “real active learning.” This paper aims to investigate the effectiveness of learning experience through internship program at start-ups. This paper examines the benefits and challenges from stakeholders' experiences and perspectives (business students, start-ups and universities). The authors focus on the entrepreneurial values obtained by exploring start-up processes, culture and work environments.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses qualitative research with a case study approach by applying experiential learning. The objects of this research are students of the School of Business and Management and start-ups in Indonesia. This study divides the pilot program of internship at start-ups into three stages, designing process, execution and evaluation. The analysis technique uses an interpretive approach from interviews and observations of internships based on experiential learning.FindingsThe results showed that the internship program at start-ups in this study has benefits for all major stakeholders, especially students. The results of student learning experiences show that start-ups' characteristics such as a creative work environment, egalitarian work culture and dynamic workflow flexibility can increase their professional and moral values.Research limitations/implicationsThis study has several limitations, including the internship program designed in this study, which is still raw and has several shortcomings. Time series in testing experiential learning is another limitation. For further study, it is necessary to conduct longitudinal research to measure the effectiveness of the start-ups' internship program.Originality/valueThis study provides new insights on experiential learning in developing an internship program at a start-up as an effort to increase entrepreneurial value for business students. This study highlights the possibility that an internship program at a start-up will have an impact on students' entrepreneurial values and competencies.
