Professional preparation programs should provide future elementary teachers opportunities to develop competence in dealing with school-related AIDS issues. Curriculum writers and instructors of preservice elementary teachers could be more effective if they were aware of this groups' beliefs about school-related AIDS issues. A survey was conducted to assess the beliefs and opinions of preservice elementary teachers about school-related AIDS issues. Subjects (n = 157) generally agreed they would eventually have a child with AIDS in their classroom and agreed AIDS education should be included in the elementary grades, yet a substantial number did not believe they understood the basics about AIDS. Less than one-third indicated they knew how to clean up blood or body fluids safely. About one-third indicated they would feel personally threatened to teach a student with AIDS. These results are reflected in recommended AIDS educational content and resources for preservice elementary teachers and future research in this area.
专业培养计划应为未来的小学教师提供机会,以培养他们处理与学校相关的艾滋病问题的能力。如果职前小学教师课程的编写者和教师了解这一群体对与学校相关的艾滋病问题的看法,他们可能会更有成效。进行了一项调查,以评估职前小学教师对与学校相关的艾滋病问题的看法和意见。受试者(n = 157)普遍同意他们最终会在教室里遇到患有艾滋病的孩子,并同意应在小学阶段开展艾滋病教育,但相当一部分人认为他们不了解艾滋病的基本知识。不到三分之一的人表示他们知道如何安全地清理血液或体液。约三分之一的人表示,教患有艾滋病的学生会让他们感到个人受到威胁。这些结果反映在为职前小学教师推荐的艾滋病教育内容和资源以及该领域的未来研究中。
