This working group addresses the challenge and opportunity presented by the use of simulations of teaching practice as an educative tool for preservice and practicing teachers. We focus particularly on the development of teachers’ skills in enacting the content-intensive work of teaching, including how simulations may be able to cultivate or reveal teacher MKT, either as propositional or applied knowledge or as an essential component of a larger teaching practice in which MKT is activated.
