Supervising teaching internships at a distance: Mobilizing cognitive presence using digital technology
Keywords:
practical training, internship, supervision, teaching, distance, cognitive presence, digitalAbstract
In teacher training programs, internship supervision can be done online, while promoting a remote presence thanks to digital devices, which are now essential. However, how do university supervisors (US) adjust their practices to ensure a cognitive presence that supports trainees supervised via digital technology? A few answers emerge from interviews conducted with US in Quebec. The thematic analysis of their remarks, based on indicators of cognitive presence, indicate that the mediatization of supervision can promote collaboration between peers, accentuate the mediating role of US (towards higher levels of cognition), and open up parallel avenues of socio-emotional support.
