Simulation Methods in Teacher Education

Simulation Methods in Teacher Education Teacher educators continue to seek ways in which teacher education programs can provide experiences for student teachers which will assist them to acquire the skills necessary in promoting effective classroom interactions. It is not always possible, nor for that matter on all occasions desirable, that such experiences be provided in actual classroom practice teaching settings. This article discusses the role that simulation might play in providing meaningful practice situations for student teachers. Research literature has been reviewed to indicate ways in which simulation has been found to be effective in the development of teaching competencies. Examples of simulated activities are discussed by the authors to illustrate how programs might develop a wider range of practical experiences for student teachers. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Australian Journal of Education SAGE

Abstract

Teacher educators continue to seek ways in which teacher education programs can provide experiences for student teachers which will assist them to acquire the skills necessary in promoting effective classroom interactions. It is not always possible, nor for that matter on all occasions desirable, that such experiences be provided in actual classroom practice teaching settings. This article discusses the role that simulation might play in providing meaningful practice situations for student teachers. Research literature has been reviewed to indicate ways in which simulation has been found to be effective in the development of teaching competencies. Examples of simulated activities are discussed by the authors to illustrate how programs might develop a wider range of practical experiences for student teachers.
