This project uses teaching simulations to investigate relationships between preservice teachers\u2019 mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) and their engagement with the high leverage teaching practices (HLPs) of eliciting and interpreting student thinking. We will explore how simulations can be used not only as assessments, but also as tools to support preservice teachers\u2019 development of MKT and HLPs. This project investigates the larger-scale use of simulation assessments in teacher education. We focus on three key issues: (1) approaches for developing profiles for standardized students; (2) the degree of \u201cstandardization\u201d of the standardized student; and (3) the development of performance expectations for preservice teachers. This project designed and studied simulations of teaching scenarios to assess preservice teachers\u2019 skills with eliciting and interpreting students\u2019 thinking about mathematics. We developed and validated three assessments. Each includes multiple versions, as well as training and support materials.
