我們的高等教育培育了中小學需要的寫作教師了嗎？

This study was conducted by documentary research to examine five empirical research reports (four of five published in SSCI journals) and ten teacher education undergraduate programs in eight universities located in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Macao, and Taipei City. The findings reveal that most of the participating grades 1-3 and 7-9 Chinese language arts teachers were not positive about their pre-service preparation to teach writing; Most of the participating teachers had their essay writing class every three to four weeks; writing instructional practices were not implemented frequently; most of the teachers taught writing based on the selected textbook series; and only a few subjects focused on teaching writing skills or teaching how to teach writing among the ten pre-service teacher training programs. Suggestions on the development of teacher education and further studies are discussed.
