Abstract: Technology integration throughout educator preparation programs is an essential component that allows pre-service teachers to learn how to better facilitate and become proficient in pedagogical practices that can enhance teaching skills to support students with varied abilities. One approach to assisting pre-service teachers develop teaching skills is through targeted skills practice in a virtual environment coupled with reflecting using the video analysis model. Pre-service teachers need multiple opportunities to practice the use of explicit instruction in order to effectively implement the strategy in their future classrooms and this can be achieved through virtual reality platforms such as Mursion. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of Mursion simulated learning experiences and video analysis on the performance and self-efficacy of preservice teacher education students using explicit instruction. Findings suggest that the use of Mursion coupled with video analysis is a promising method for developing pre-service teachers' pedagogical skills.
