Abstract
This paper uses the AI mini-interview, an interactive approach, to improve the nature of
teachers and child care workers in the Teaching-Procession Practical Seminar, which was carried
out on the reflections after the teaching practice. In order to verify the results, both before
and after the AI mini-interview, a child care worker reflection scale, self-assessment scale and
reflection on the course were carried out and analyzed.
The following things were realized after carrying out the interview on 25 second year students
in the teacher/ child care worker course at a women’s junior college:
1. The scores for child care worker reflection scale were much higher after the practice than
before, and their consciousness of themselves as child care workers as well as their interest
in children were higher.
2. On the self-evaluation, the scores for being able to speak and listen were higher.
3. From the reflections on the course it was seen that the figures for consciousness as child
care workers in terms of increase in field of vision, and learning the child care point of view
were higher.
These showed that the interactive approach had improved the self-awareness of child care
workers.
