Lessons in a Different Language: Teaching Pre-Service Teachers to "Speak" Data

An undergraduate teacher education behavioral principles course focused on pre-service teachers’ accuracy of data collection using simple technology during a field-based experience is described. Pre-teachers, mostly special education majors, completed questionnaires at the beginning and end of th...
