摘要：This paper investigated if there was a significant difference between the evaluation of female and male student teachers in the following areas of teaching practice: preparation, supervision, teaching environment and teaching practice experience. The data collected was encoded and analyzed using the Predictive Analysis Software (PASW). Twenty six (26) student teachers undertaking their TP at various schools within Nandi Central District, nineteen (19) females and seven (7) males participated. To ensure reliability, a pilot study was conducted in three schools within Nandi South District which had students on teaching practice; one boys’ school, one girls’ school and one mixed school. A reliability Coefficient of 0.60 was set as a cut- off point. The males feel they did not gain much from the feedback of the supervisors, whereas their female counterparts benefitted immensely from the supervisors’ feedback. Both females and males agree that the collaborating teacher did not attend their lessons and therefore they were not of much help. Female student teachers tend to agree with the housing conditions provided in these schools whereas their female counterparts are less satisfied.
