The Positive Aspects of Mursion When Teaching Higher Education Students
Hartle, Luminita; Kaczorowski, Tara
Quarterly Review of Distance Education, v20 n4 p71-78 2019
Teacher candidates are required to learn foundational teaching skills in order to successfully address the needs of all students in the classroom. Mursion, a commercial education product, is a mixed reality technology which aims to provide teacher candidates with diverse opportunities to practice and reflect on the execution of teaching skills with virtual avatars prior to actual field experience. In this article, 2 faculty members discuss different perspectives on the product and some of the factors that lead to effective implementation of Mursion in college classrooms. Implications for teacher preparation are discussed, including the outcomes of simulated teaching practices once embedded into college level courses.
