This study was to determine the effects of audio (AT) and video tape (VT) feedback on both verbal and psychomotor skills when all other aspects of the Stanford microteaching model were controlled. Two experiments were involved, both consisting of two microteaching cycles--one for a verbal skill and the other for psychomotor skill. Subjects were 80…

This paper reflects on a decade of research, development and practice in the area of microteaching in teacher education. (Author)

Discussed are the means of recording a microteaching session (i.e., audio or video tapes) in terms of the ends the technique implies. (LS)

In an experiment to test the effectiveness of discrimination training--contrasting good and poor teacher behaviors and demonstrating the stimulus occasions for these behaviors--as compared with feedback from an instructor in microteaching, a discrimination model for a limited class of teaching behaviors was devised and subjects were divided into…

This paper offers an introduction to microteaching and how it would be used in the Associate Instructor Teachers Skills Program (AITSP). The first section deals with the basic phases of microteaching: a) modeling, b) feedback, and c) practice. The second section explains the three approaches used in the AITSP teaching practicum: a) Stanford…

The work of this study resulted from two factors: a) the problems of giving feedback to the student teacher while he was on teaching practice or in microteaching; b) the relatively unstructured nature of this feedback when it was given. (Author/JA)

The development and use of microteaching are discussed briefly. Research on modeling, practice, and feedback is reviewed; and studies of the overall outcomes of microteaching and conceptual models underlying microteaching are discussed. Few conclusions can be drawn about the effectiveness of microteaching. (TJH)

The purpose of this paper was to investigate the potential of a microteaching evaluation form for assessing microteaching performances. The microteaching evaluation form was developed by adopting suggestions from the teacher education literature on microteaching. Data consisted of participants' and course instructor's evaluations of microteaching…

A major drawback in microteaching by preservice teachers is the limited availability of university supervisors to supply feedback regarding the microteaching performances. This researcher investigated the effectiveness of feedback supplied by the preservice teachers themselves. Thirty preservice teachers participated in the study. Each microtaught…

Social learning theory is the theory that is applied through microteaching. The two critical sets of social learning variables mediated through microteaching are those associated with modeling and feedback. Microteaching is also a way of bringing specific teaching responses under experimental and behavioral control. Thus in each microteaching…
