The teaching-learning relationship in online microteaching was explored using mixed methods. Adults (N = 40) alternated roles of "teacher" and "student" during a 15-min language learning session. Video analysis using a context-specific framework based on the science of learning revealed diversity in teaching approaches.…

Microteaching is a way of doing professional development for teachers wanting to incorporate new evidence-based and high-leverage practices into their instructional toolboxes. Given how much work is required in teaching and the limited time professionals have available, microteaching is an accessible process that supports instructional improvement…

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…

Virtual Reality (VR) shows the potential to tackle the limitations and deficiencies of traditional microteaching training by offering an intricate and lifelike environment that helps pre-service teachers to develop their teaching skills. However, the effects of VR training on each teaching skill sub-dimension remain inconclusive. This study…

This scoping review investigates the potential of bite-sized learning approach in music education. The review identified articles from Scopus and ERIC databases, revealing that bite-sized learning is widely discussed in the field of ICT, mathematics, and medicine. Bite-sized learning is pedagogical and pragmatic, providing easy access,…

Using origami in the classroom, this study examines the experiences of pre-service middle school mathematics teachers. A case study model was employed in this study as a qualitative research approach. The study involved 39 senior pre-service mathematics teachers. Document analysis, semi-structured interviews, and observation techniques were used…

Microlearning is a novel, student-centered educational strategy in health professions education (HPE) that significantly improves student learning and engagement outcomes. The purpose of this qualitative research study was to understand faculty experiences using this novel teaching method. This study used a lens of Critical Pedagogy to explore…

The COVID-19 pandemic has not only impacted the smooth ongoing of the domestic PE curriculum in China, but also brought new innovation directions. Based on the research background of online teaching in China during the "COVID-19" epidemic, this study uses the policy research method to understand the policy requirements of the…

Since research work is an adventurous expedition, one requires clear pathways, without which the researcher can be lost in the foggy way. To develop a good roadmap is, thus, a crucial task on the part of the researcher. Based on this assumption, this study aimed to conceptualize the notions, functions, and components of literature review that…

This study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of an action plan applied for increasing the level of the strategy, model, method-technique knowledge, and planning and implementation skills of prospective Science teachers. The action research method was used in the study. The participant group consisted of pre-service science teachers…

This study provided a phenomenological account of 22 pre-service elementary teachers' experiences transitioning from being pre-service teachers learning the knowledge base about science instruction to teaching a physical science topic in a microteaching activity. This transition within a phase of the professional teacher continuum is just as…

The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological research study was to examine the thoughts and feelings of teachers when utilizing video-assisted micro-teaching to reflect on their practice. Research questions included how, and in what ways video-assisted micro-teaching helps teachers reflect on their teaching and in what ways video reflection…

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…

Learning science is a social enterprise that involves students communicating ideas, observations, and findings. Navigating talk between students about scientific concepts and practices is a complex task for teachers. Traditionally, science educators have used a method called microteaching (teaching to peers) as a context for practicing teaching.…

Risk-free micro-teaching affords an opportunity for pre-service teachers (PTs) to practice teaching and student engagement techniques outside of a traditional classroom setting. More time to practice teaching is often an expressed desire of PTs. Orchestrating time to practice teaching techniques learned in pedagogy courses is a difficult…
