Prospective Teachers' Attitudes toward Urban Schools: Can They Be Changed?

Studied the impact of urban-based field experience on the attitudes of 75 elementary-education majors. The effects of the field experience were generally positive, with 55% of the urban placement group indicating that they were inclined to pursue inner-city teaching, compared to 20% of the suburban placement group of 101 students.
