In this study, it is aimed to examine the effect of the micro-teaching application on teacher competency level of early childhood preservice teachers who are included in the activity. Students' teacher competency levels were measured by "Prospective Teacher Competency Sub-Scale" which was developed by Erien and Celikoz ( 2003). For the study the pretest- post-test design of experimental research model has been used without control group. The data is analyzed by the Paired Samples t test and ANOVA test for repeated measures. After the experiment of micro teaching, significant differences have been found between participants' pre-test and post-test scores. The results show that the micro-teaching activity may affect students' teacher competency levels positively. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved
