An experiment was performed to compare the relative effectiveness of two microteaching procedures. In the low-cost treatment, student teachers received training in higher cognitive questioning skills by means of written modeling procedures (Subjects read transcripts of videotape model lessons) and audiotape feedback after each microteaching…

Microteaching experience was sufficient to train graduate education students to a significant level of competency. However, once they moved into a regular student teaching setting, their exhibition of the original target skills was dependent upon intervention by their cooperating teachers. (Author/MV)

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of microteaching in developing the actual classroom use of twelve questionning skills when used immediately prior to a student teaching experience. (Author)

Although microteaching has proved to be a valuable training tool for preservice education majors, some microteaching programs have been curtailed primarily because of the time and expense of maintaining the facilities. An abbreviated four-lesson program for microteaching can be conducted effectively with minimum time and moderate costs. The first…
