Abstract	The 35 directing teachers for the teacher training program, fall 1994 session, at the University of North Florida provided feedback on this preservice preparation program through a survey. The teachers completed a four-part questionnaire that required them to evaluate the program, internship procedures and materials, and their supervisory competencies through Likert type scales and open-ended questions. Most, though they had not taken any formal training in supervision, had previously supervised an intern and had more than 3 years of teaching experience. The teachers evaluated the program positively and found the experience to be personally rewarding. Directing teachers provided suggestions for program improvement and refinement. One of the major suggestions was to make sure interns were in the school for preplanning and for the first day of school. Overall, college supervisors were viewed as helpful to the directing teachers in supervising interns and providing information and help. The teachers also reported having high competency in providing direct assistance to interns but less competency using and adapting instruments for the systematic recording of teaching/learning behaviors. An appendix presents numerical data from the study and responses to the open-ended questions. The survey questions are included. (JB)
