Strang, Harold R.; And Others – Journal of Special Education Technology, 1987
The feasibility of using computer simulation to teach behavior management skills to special and regular education teachers in training was evaluated using microcomputer-simulated spelling lessons involving four pupils programmed to make off-task comments. After training, education students' management of off task behavior approximated that of…

Strang, Harold R. – 1990
This report focuses on the field testing of a recently developed self-administered microcomputer-based teaching simulation. Training-partner teacher educators from four Virginia institutions used the self-administered teaching simulation at their home sites. The educators used the simulation in a variety of ways: (1) to help education students…

Strang, Harold R. – Journal of Technology and Teacher Education, 1996
Describes the Teaching Decisions Simulation, a program that allows participants to make decisions regarding lesson plan activities and student and teacher spatial arrangement or interactions. Postlesson feedback includes variables such as completion time and performance measures. Experienced teachers exhibited more deliberation in completing the…

Strang, Harold R.; And Others – Computers in the Schools, 1991
Describes a self-administered microcomputer-based simulation that allows teacher educators to create customized simulated classroom experiences for their students. Lesson performance measures are discussed, postlesson feedback variables are described, self-perception measures are explained, and results of a posttraining evaluation of the…

Strang, Harold R.; Moore, Sara D. – Journal of Information Technology for Teacher Education, 1994
Describes a study that defined the principal techniques preservice teachers applied when completing specific microcomputer simulations. Analysis of simulation performance scores yielded three performance factors addressing techniques that defined teachers' misbehavior intervention, instructional delivery, and activity sequencing. Regression…
