Abstract

This study investigates how puppetry-based tabletop microteaching systems can contribute to student teacher training compared with normal microteaching. The study analyzes student teachers’ discourse using a puppetry-based microteaching system called “EduceBoard” introduced to a university class. The analysis included an epistemic network analysis to identify the specific features that influence changes and clarify particular discourse patterns that were found and a qualitative analysis of the discourse data. Results indicate that the puppetry-based microteaching and improvisational dialogs that it elicited enhanced student teachers’ practical insights and gave them the opportunity to develop their students’ learning and run the class smoothly.
