• In Event: Preservice Teacher Education in International Contexts

Abstract

The present mixed-methods study explore the change of teaching conceptions among pre-service teachers via online collaborative knowledge-building discussion. Data mainly came from online interaction and discussions, surveys, and an interview. Findings indicate that the participants were able to work as a community to help one another build deeper teaching knowledge while developing more constructivist-oriented teaching conceptions, but based on the interview data, they still see the practice of knowledge-building pedagogy as deep constructivism as quite challenging.
