Lin, Yung-Chi – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
This study proposed a low-cost, easy to set up and easy to modify virtual classroom simulation environment, "CartoonClass," and tested its impact on 27 pre-service primary school teachers' noticing development during a semester-long mathematics methods course. The participants' perceptions of using CartoonClass were also examined. A…

Leonora Kaldaras; Carl Wieman – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
The ability to express scientific concepts in mathematical terms and integrate scientific and mathematical reasoning about a phenomenon is a foundational cognitive process involved in scientific thinking. This process called "blended math-science sensemaking" (MSS) is a desired skill for all science, technology, engineering, and math…

Yung-Chi Lin – Technology, Pedagogy and Education, 2024
The purpose of this study was to compare two simulated classrooms (virtual vs physical) in terms of how they affect pre-service teachers' perceptions and noticing ability. A total of 57 pre-service elementary school teachers participated in this study (28 in virtual Cartoon Classroom and 29 in physical Bear Classroom). The results were mixed. In…

Julianna Washington; Candace Walkington; Taylor Darwin – Grantee Submission, 2024
In this chapter, we explore the use of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) in geometry courses for teachers. There is increasing use of AR and VR technologies, such as AR and VR goggles, in K-12 schools, providing new opportunities for learners to interact with geometry in three-dimensional (3D) environments. These opportunities lead…

Chelsea T. Morris; Twyla Perryman; Md Shahinuzzaman – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2025
Concerningly, pre-service teachers might utilize practices during practicum and student teaching experiences in ways that are less than satisfactory, or even harmful, to students, peers, or mentors. Mixed reality simulation (MRS), an educational tool for practicing teaching skills, may be a warranted approach to field experience that limits…

Barlow, Elizabeth K.; Barlow, Angela T.; Nadelson, Louis S. – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2023
Advancements in computing have led to increased interest in integrating computational thinking in the K-12 curriculum. Computational thinking can be defined as a problem-solving process with the goal of developing algorithms that can be coded for computer use. With its emphasis on problem solving, the processes associated with computational…

Alex Fegely; Heather Hagan; George Warriner III; Michael McKenzie – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2024
As education preparation programs align their instruction to the contemporary technologies used in schools, they may begin to design and deliver virtual reality instruction in the teaching methods classroom. In this study, we examined the experiences of 24 pre-service teachers as they used virtual reality for the first time through the lens of the…

Deef Allah Al Shorman – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This dissertation, utilizing a mixed-methods approach within a design-based research (DBR) framework, investigated the impact of augmented reality (AR) technology on the self-efficacy of preservice elementary teachers (PSTs) in integrated STEM teaching and technology. Incorporating both a pilot study and a subsequent dissertation study, the…

Seok-Hyun Ga; Hyun-Jung Cha; Hye-Gyoung Yoon – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2025
Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are revolutionary technologies extensively used in science education. However, there has been insufficient discussion of teachers' expertise in using VR/AR. This study explored how pre-service teachers use VR/AR technology in science education based on the technological pedagogical and content…

Mikeska, Jamie N.; Lottero-Perdue, Pamela S. – Science Education, 2022
Engaging students in scientific argumentation is a hallmark of high-quality science instruction. Despite the importance of this practice, it is not a ubiquitous one within K-12 classrooms since scientific argumentation is complex and difficult to learn how to do well. In this study, we examined similarities and differences in how preservice…

Sezai Kocabas; Signe Kastberg; Melva Grant; Hanan Alyami – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
Research on pre-service teachers' discussion practices has focused on decompositions of practice into subskills, while acknowledging the importance of the role of context, identity, and relationships between interactive moves. We focused on 66 elementary preservice teachers' (PSTs') framing-launching moves in discussions after problem-solving in a…

Tammy D. Lee; Carrie Lee; Mark Newton; Paul Vos; Jennifer Gallagher; Daniel Dickerson; Camryn Regenthal – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
Learning science is a social enterprise that involves students communicating ideas, observations, and findings. Navigating talk between students about scientific concepts and practices is a complex task for teachers. Traditionally, science educators have used a method called microteaching (teaching to peers) as a context for practicing teaching.…

Liu, Ze-Min; Fan, Xianli; Liu, Yujiao; Ye, Xin-dong – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
Children's unexpected cardiac arrest warrants cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by kindergarten teachers. Yet, recent research revealed trained personnel reporting poor transfer of acquired skills during real-world emergencies with conventional CPR training. Immersive virtual reality (IVR) training induces a greater sense of presence and agency…

Mikeska, Jamie N.; Howell, Heather; Kinsey, Devon – Journal of Teacher Education, 2023
Recently scholars have advocated for using teachers' practice as a site for teacher learning. The recent proliferation of online, digital spaces, including simulated classrooms, has paved the way for novel approaches within practice-based teacher education. Yet, limited research has investigated the extent to which and how the use of online,…

Dawn M. Woods; Linda Doornbos; Cynthia Carver – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2024
This qualitative study investigated how mixed-reality simulations supported the development of justice-oriented core teaching practices within a large elementary education program. Told from the point-of-view of two methods instructors, using candidates' written and oral reflections, the authors examined the use of Mursion[R] mixed reality…
