Abstract

  This project is a case study for the program of enhancing teacher's practical abilities in the Technology Education Department of the College of Education, Yamanashi University.

The students then transcribed down all the speeches of the class viewing the videos, and added their comments on their activities in the class. Through the process of the simulation class and recording and reflecting of it ,it is thus concluded, students could analyze themselves and get a deeper understanding of what teaching is.
