Simulated teaching is a teacher training technique where the teaching process is practiced artificially by assigning roles and selecting teaching skills. It introduces pupil teachers to teach in non-stressful conditions prior to classroom practice, with the goal of developing specific communication skills. The steps include assigning roles, selecting teaching skills, preparing a work schedule, determining an observation schedule, organizing practice sessions and discussions, and altering roles. Simulated teaching bridges the gap between theory and practice by developing various teaching skills and building self-confidence, while discussions provide immediate feedback. While it takes place in an artificial situation, research shows that with the proper function, simulated teaching can effectively prepare education students for real teaching experiences by equipping them with necessary competencies.

2. MEANING AND CONCEPT
•Simulation – to imitate exactly
•It is the controlled representation of reality
•Teaching is the act of imparting instructions,
skills to learner in classroom situation to bring
about changes in the behavior of the learner
•Simulated teaching means role-playing in
which the process of teaching is carried out
artificially.

3. Simulated teaching:
CHARACTERISTICS
•Is a teacher training technique.
•Brings about modification in the behavior of the
teacher.
•Introduces pupil teacher to teach in non-stressful
conditions.
•Is used prior to the classroom teaching practice with
the objective of developing a specific skill of
communication

4. STEPS OF SIMULATED
TEACHING
1. ASSIGNMENT OF ROLES
2. SELECTION OF TEACHING SKILLS
3. PREPARATION OF WORK SCHEDULE
4. DETERMINATION OF OBSERVATION SCHEDULE
5. ORGANIZATION OF PRACTICE SESSION & DISCUSSON
6. ALTERING ROLES

5. •Bridges the gap between theory and practical
•Various teaching skills are developed
•Builds self confidence of would be teachers
•Discussion provides immediate feedback
ADVANTAGES

6. • Is an artificial situation
•Trainee teacher may feel conscious
• Lack of interest among pupil teachers
• Observer might have incorrect reading
DISADVANTAGES

7. Research has shown that simulated teaching as one of the most
powerful tools in preparing education students for good teaching
experience.
With the right function, simulated teaching can equip students with
the necessary teaching skills, and competencies to develop their
competence in teaching.
