摘要
Identifying the best possible candidates for initial teacher education (ITE) programs is one of the first steps in building a strong teacher workforce. We report three phases of development and testing of a contextualized teaching-focused situational judgment test (SJT) designed to screen applicants at a large and competitive ITE program in the U.K. Results showed that the SJT was a reliable and predictive tool that enhanced existing screening methods. We suggest that using state-of-the art methods to help make admissions decisions could improve the reliability, validity, and fairness of selection into ITE. (C) 2019 The Authors.
