Developing Pre-service Teachers' Capacity in Teaching Science with Technology through Microteaching Lesson Study Approach

In order to effectively use technology in teaching, teacher candidates need to develop technology related pedagogical content knowledge through being engaged in a process of discussion, modeling, practice, and reflection. Based on the examination of teacher candidates' lesson plan assignments, observations of their microteaching performance, and their reflective journals, our study found that Microteaching Lesson Study in methods courses provides teacher candidates a great opportunity to learn how to teach with technology. Its significance lies in the opportunity of practice, collaborative refection, instant feedback, and learning from each other.
