When pilots, surgeons or others with high-stakes professions are learning their craft, they have simulators with which to practice. Now, a new study shows that a simulator, when combined with software to provide data on performance, can help teachers learn what mistakes to avoid before working with working in a real classroom.
A new study co-written by a researcher from the University of Kansas examined TeachLivE, or TLE, a simulator that allows pre-serviceto deliver lessons in front of a virtual classroom of avatars. The avatars represent a diverse background of students with various personalities and academic skill levels.
The study, co-written with researchers Craig Berg and Raymond Scolavino from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, was published in the journal. Co-author Lisa Dieker, Williamson Family Distinguished Professor in Special Education at KU, said the use of a teaching simulator can help future educators learn from their mistakes before leading a classroom of their own.
Study results showed that users of the combined simulator and teaching data app used the data and feedback they gained to avoid repeating mistakes and even showed"teaching fingerprints," or bodies of data on what they did right, and their strengths that indicated a unique teaching style. "When teachers get specific information in the simulator, it not only helps them change their behaviors but to understand why they should," Dieker said."This work allows a lot of empowerment of the individual without being judgmental."
