Purpose: Microteaching is a teacher training method based on microclasses (groups of four or five students) and microlessons lasting no more than 5-20 min. Since it was first explored in the late 20th century in experiments at Stanford University, microteaching has evolved at the interdisciplinary level. The purpose of this paper is to examine the…

In this study, it is aimed to examine the cognitive structures of pre-service science teachers regarding the concept of "micro teaching". The study was carried out with 25 teacher candidates studying in the 4th grade of science teaching at Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University Faculty of Education in a 4-week period within the scope of the…

Misconception/student difficulty is one of the student characteristics that should be known by teachers. Teachers should have effective knowledge and strategies to overcome these misconceptions and difficulties. In this sense, microteaching practices have an important place in the context of pre-service teachers' ability to increase their…

The aim of this study was to determine the professional developments of science teacher candidates over 14 weeks of microteaching practices. The sample for the study was comprised of 9 teacher candidates aged 21-23 who were studying their final year (4th year) in an elementary science education undergraduate programme of an education faculty in…

When considering the characteristics that teachers should have, concepts such as critical thinking, active learning, taking responsibility, evaluation, analysis, self-evaluation and reflective thinking are important. In this context, microteaching and peer assessment methods come to the fore. Microteaching is defined as sharing a part of the…

In light of technological development worldwide, the focus has been on how different types of digital technology can be used to provide activities that will enhance students' mathematical learning. Micro-learning is an innovative approach that will accelerate digitalization in mathematics teaching, attract students to mathematics, and combine…

The current study employed many-facet Rasch measurement (MFRM) to explain the rater bias patterns of EFL student teachers (hereafter students) when they rate the teaching performance of their peers in three assessment environments: online, face-to-face, and anonymous. Twenty-four students and two instructors rated 72 micro-teachings performed by…

Microteaching, one of the teacher training techniques in-use to help pre-service teachers gain knowledge and experience with teaching, is conventionally provided on-campus. However, the COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a switch to remote education, thereby moving teacher training practices to online platforms. This novel situation indicated a need…

Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) is defined as the teacher knowledge needed for effective technology integration. This study aimed to investigate preservice elementary mathematics teachers' TPACK development. TPACK survey was administered to 33 preservice teachers (PSTs), and six of them were selected via maximum variation…

This study assesses the performance of Turkish science pre-service teachers (PSTs) in a TPACK-Practical Course that consists of the training course and lesson-plan-micro-teaching stages. The subjects of the study were 46 PSTs (19 males and 27 females). In this study, after PSTs took a TPACK training course, they created a TPACK-based lesson plan…

Very few teacher education models have integrated theory and practice on a context basis and used formative assessment in teachers' personal and professional development. Two are the Clinical Teacher Education Model and the Realistic Teacher Education Model based on reflection. These models prepare teacher candidates (TCs) for their profession as…

Micro-teaching has been criticized for its artificial nature, limited practice period, and inadequate feedback. Giving preservice teachers in-situ opportunities that they can collaborate on lesson planning, teach, and receive peer feedback can assist in addressing these drawbacks. To that end, an intervention study was devised to provide in-situ…

The aim of this study is to examine the opinions of the preservice teachers about the micro teaching course. Study group consists of the preservice teachers who study at the Faculty of Education of a state university and have taken the micro-teaching course and study in the Foreign Languages Education Department. Qualitative research method was…

Microteaching provides a valuable setting for preservice teachers to practice teaching prior to real classroom teaching experiences, as well as allowing teacher educators to observe the strengths and weaknesses of the preservice teachers' pedagogical content knowledge. Therefore, we studied the preservice mathematics teachers' microteachings, with…

The aim of this study is to implement micro teaching method in Special Teaching Methods I and II courses in order to teach preservice teachers how to make lesson plans and help them gain experiences in classroom management issues; i.e. to improve their teaching skills. The study was designed according to the principles of action research.…
