The main purposes
of this study were to identify the essential characteristics of physical
environment to access quality teacher education and to discuss the importance
and role of these physical characteristics for effective and efficient teacher
education. A Delphi study with three phases was utilized as a research
methodology. In the first phase of the study, data was obtained by one open
ended question from 33 teacher candidates in four universities at Ankara and
content analysis was used to analysis data. Then, the questionnaire developed
according to the results of the first phase, was applied in two times in a one
month internal. Data obtained by the second and the third phases of the study
was analyzed by descriptive analysis and comparison between two applications
was presented. As a result of the study, technology, ambient environment of
the building and classrooms, the cleanliness of environment, the size of the
classrooms, furniture and materials, spaces for social and academic activity were
emerged as the most important physical characteristics and the importance and
role of these physical characteristics were discussed in the paper.
