Abstract:

“This chapter presents a case approach used for modeling and simulation applications in a science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) teacher preparation program to assist in the development of technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK). In this digital age, many pre-service teachers use technological tools daily but do not have knowledge on how to use tools in ways to help develop understanding of STEM concepts. The authors present a framework that promotes learning by teaching to prepare STEM teachers with ways to use modeling and simulation tools in classroom instruction.”
