QUINT uses videos in teacher training, focusing on:

  • Video-based coursework activities to support teacher candidates’ ability to notice and reason around critical events in videos of classroom teaching
  • Video-based coursework activities to support teacher candidates’ teaching repertoire during fieldwork
  • Video recordings from teacher candidates’ own fieldwork to develop pre-service teachers’ reflexive capacity for analyzing the interplay between instructional activities, interaction patterns, classroom composition, and student learning
