Abstract
First 3 is a support program for beginning teachers, who are in their first three years in the teaching career, and undergraduate students. The program completed its third year, and this report summarizes the findings from the reports of 2012, 2013 and 2014. As in the previous reports, this study uses focus groups, interviews, surveys with open-ended questions and rating scales to evaluate the program. The main objective of this study is to assess First 3’s effectiveness, and understand what are the strengths and the weaknesses of the program. This report also includes recommendations from the participants about areas that can still be further developed to assist beginning teachers.
