Abstract:This survey measured the expectations of new graduates (N=1,002) from education schools who were preparing to start teaching in the fall of 1990. It includes questions on their expectations in relation to students, administrators, other teachers, and parents, as well as on their experiences of teacher training and plans for the future. The overall picture of new teachers revealed by this survey is of a cohort of positively motivated, optimistic, and somewhat idealistic young people who come to their jobs with high expectations but also with a sense of the societal problems that may make their new jobs more difficult. The data are displayed in six tables. (JD)
