Therefore, the participants were supposed to have practiced their microteaching test. They were also supposed to have watched their recorded performance. The questionnaire was not only used to dig out students’ perception on the use of recorded performance to de self-evaluation. It was also used to find out how the student teachers evaluate themselves after they watched the video of their teaching performance. The first part of the questionnaire was close-ended questions. The close- ended questions were used to dig out students perceptions. It consisted of 28 statements related to how the students perceived the use of recorded performance to do self-reflection.
