Abstract
Special educators are expected to implement High-Leverage Practices to support diverse learners. This article describes the findings from a mixed-reality simulation project structured around the framework of connected learning. The project sought to evaluate how 30 preservice teacher candidates in special education feel about mixed-reality simulation compared to traditional classroom practice (i.e., role playing) in learning the High-Leverage Practice of system of least prompts. Results of this study indicate that those who participated in the mixed-reality simulator had significantly different social validity survey responses from the live practice group on items related to perceived performance, perceived tool value, and treatment experience; these findings can help inform teacher educators on how to incorporate mixed-reality simulation. Limitations and future research are discussed.
