The purpose of this study was to explore practical experience of pre-service physical
education teachers in team teaching that have been provided at one of teacher education
programs in physical education. 8 times for group interviewing (total 20 participants) have
conducted per 4 groups with 5 pre-service teachers and their teaching logs are chosen to
analyze their perceptions and experiences about team teaching presentation. The collected
data are analyzed using Spradly(1980)' techniques. Throughout this analysis, pre-service
physical education teachers have experienced both meanings and action principles of team
teaching in secondary physical education. In terms of the embodied meanings of team
teaching, the pre-service teachers could previously experience various roles such as future
physical education teachers, student-teachers, and test takers for national teacher recruitment
testing. Simultaneously, they have experienced big gap between theory and practice of
school physical education throughout team teaming, and perceived the gap could be
minimized to prepare for field practice. Moreover, they have realized the open
communication among pre-service teachers is the most important factor in experiencing
principles of team teaching. They also have experienced that the open communication makes
effective role distribution among pre-service teachers and then both bring smooth
collaboration.
