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.…

New questions and concerns arise every day about the impact of AI in schools, such as how teachers will learn about AI and leverage it in their classrooms, how they can use it to develop their own teaching expertise, and if AI for educators really leads to better teaching and learning. The authors believe that AI can help teachers become more…

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…

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.…

Although peer feedback is highly valued in the feedback process, the specific contribution of feedback providers in this process remains unclear. In this qualitative multiple-case study, the primary focus was to explore the contribution of feedback providers and the benefits they obtained through online peer micro-teaching practices. The study…
