Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to find out the perception of the physics tutors about the impact of a continuous professional development on their knowledge about the national teachers’ standard, the national teacher education curriculum framework and the 4-year B. Ed curriculum. The study employed descriptive cross sectional survey using an online survey. The population for the study comprised all colleges of education tutors who teach physics. In all 85 tutors took part in the online survey. The data collected was analysed using means, standard deviations and ANOVA. The results indicated that the professional development has had great impact on teacher’s knowledge about the national teachers’ standard, the national teacher education curriculum framework and the 4-year Bachelor of Education curriculum. It was also found that there was no statistically significant difference in the impact of the professional development based on tutors’ qualifications. Implications of the study for practice are drawn.
