Outlined in this paper is how and why the space was created for the pre-service teachers. Also described and explained are the adjustments made to the space to enable a richer experience for pre-service teachers to role-play and practise their teaching prior to taking the skills to the real classroom. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | ASCILITE 2012: 29th annual Australasian Society for Computers in Learning in Tertiary Education conference, Wellington, New Zealand, 25th - 28th November, 2012 | Grant Details: | NHMRC/PP10-1775 | Source of Publication: | Future challenges, sustainable futures: Proceedings of ascilite Wellington 2012, p. 503-507 | Publisher: | Australasian Society for Computers in Learning in Tertiary Education (ASCILITE) | Place of Publication: | Australia | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 139999 Education not elsewhere classified 130306 Educational Technology and Computing |
