Abstract
The purpose of this study was to increase the quality of pre-service special education teachers through a year-long investigation utilizing a trifecta model of preparation: (1) a mixed-reality environment with multiple methods of coaching, (2) on-line learning modules, and (3) field experiences utilizing various technologies to provide multiple means of coaching. Use of this trifecta model to personnel preparation can be generalized to other teaching programs.
