This article describes the outcomes of using a scaffolded set of two digital, simulation-based approaches to support secondary mathematics and science preservice teachers (PSTs) in learning to facilitate argumentation-focused discussions. The researchers investigated PST and teacher educator (TE) impressions of the experience and collected…

In this study, three math and three science teacher educators (TEs) were positioned as designers of instruction. The investigation considered how TEs supported preservice teachers (PSTs) to learn to facilitate argumentation discussions using two digital simulations. Research questions were (a) How did TEs engage in instructional design around the…

In this article, we focus on a set of remote activities regarding simulated juries, judges' evaluations, communication of verdicts, and a post-discussion conversation. These activities aimed to promote learning of the preservice teachers about the differences between remote and in-person teaching in a chemistry teaching methods course. The set of…
